First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 01, 2026 · Updated 30 times
Summary
This study tests whether adding an experimental drug (CDX-1140) to a standard immunotherapy (cemiplimab) before surgery can shrink tumors more than the immunotherapy alone in people with stage III-IV head and neck cancer. About 44 participants will receive either the combination or the single drug for a short time before their planned surgery. The goal is to see if the combo reduces the amount of tissue that needs to be removed and improves the body's immune response against the cancer.
