Summary
This study tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug (treprizumab) to standard chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with advanced head and neck cancer. About 122 participants will be randomly assigned to receive either the drug combo or chemo alone for three cycles before surgery. The main goal is to see if the combo leads to a higher rate of complete tumor disappearance after treatment.
