Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

Summary

This early-stage study tests two drugs (finotonlimab and stapokibart) together in 10 adults with head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. All participants have already tried standard treatments. The main goals are to see if the combination is safe and whether it shrinks tumors.
