This study tests a remote hearing test to monitor hearing changes in patients with head and neck cancer getting cisplatin chemotherapy and/or radiation. The goal is to catch hearing loss early so treatment can be adjusted.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06137378RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab for advanced throat cancer to avoid laryngectomy
This trial tests whether a drug called pembrolizumab (Keytruda) can help people with advanced throat cancer avoid removal of the voice box. You may be eligible if you have a specific type of larynx or hypopharynx cancer that hasn't been treated with radiation or immunotherapy before.
Mannheim, Baden-WürtembergAges 18–70 - NCT06463756Recruiting
AI Predicts Thyroid Cartilage Invasion in Laryngeal Cancer
This study uses AI to analyze CT scans and predict if laryngeal cancer has spread to the thyroid cartilage. It may help doctors plan better treatment without needing extra invasive procedures.
ChongqingAges 18–81 - NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06636734RecruitingPhase 2
Lovastatin plus pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding lovastatin (a cholesterol-lowering drug) to pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy) works better than pembrolizumab alone for head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. It's for people who haven't had immunotherapy before and aren't already on a statin.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06868433RecruitingPhase 1
TMV vaccine alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced HNSCC
This trial tests a vaccine made from your own tumor to help your immune system fight head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. It is given alone or with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) to see if it can shrink tumors or slow progression.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06914999RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Comparing a new scan to standard scan during head and neck cancer radiation
This trial is testing whether a newer type of PET/CT scan (F-18 NaF) can better detect blood vessel problems caused by radiation therapy than the standard scan (F-18 FDG) in people with head and neck cancer. If successful, it could lead to better ways to prevent and manage these complications.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06997068RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combination for returning head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs—methotrexate, erlotinib, and celecoxib—for people whose head and neck cancer has come back or spread. It is designed for patients in the rural Midwest who have already had or chosen not to have standard first treatment.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT02734537RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation with or without cisplatin after head and neck surgery
This trial studies whether adding cisplatin (a chemotherapy medicine) to radiation therapy helps people with stage III–IVA squamous cell cancer of the head and neck after they’ve had surgery. It’s meant to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03010150Recruiting
Blood tests and swallowing exercise check-ins for head and neck cancer
This study looks at whether giving swallowing exercises and checking in with questionnaires can help people with metastatic (spreading to neck lymph nodes) head and neck cancers do the exercises correctly. It also uses blood tests to better understand adherence and progress over time.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05172245RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug added to chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether adding a new targeted drug called ipatasertib to standard chemoradiation can improve treatment for people with locally advanced head and neck cancer. Ipatasertib may help block a protein that helps cancer grow, possibly making the standard therapy more effective.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05688488RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Curcumin to help prevent vocal cord scar adhesions after surgery
This trial tests whether curcumin (a natural compound) can reduce scar-like “adhesions” that can form between both vocal cords after endoscopy surgery. If you’re having a procedure on both vocal cords, this could help lower the chance of postoperative sticking and related voice problems.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07058805RecruitingPhase 2
Post-radiation therapy for head and neck cancer
This trial studies a standard type of radiation therapy given after surgery for head and neck cancer. It aims to see if giving radiation only to certain areas of the neck can control the cancer with fewer side effects.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT07603167Enrolling by invitation
Photon-Counting CT Scans for Laryngeal Cancer Staging
This study tests a new type of CT scanner (photon-counting CT) to better visualize laryngeal cancer before surgery. The goal is to improve how doctors stage and plan treatment for throat cancer.
RozzanoAges 18 years+ - NCT04671667RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab vs chemo-radiation after surgery for recurrent head/neck cancer
This trial tests whether pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy drug) works better than the usual chemo plus radiation after surgery for cancer that has come back in the head and neck area. It may help reduce cancer returning or spreading by using your immune system, but eligibility depends on how the cancer came back and your prior treatments.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–79 - NCT06761937RecruitingPhase 1
Heat and radiation for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of radiation and heat therapy (thermoradiotherapy) for people with advanced head and neck cancer who cannot receive standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if adding heat can make the radiation more effective.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT04908696Recruiting
Treatment study for laryngeal and hypopharyngeal cancers
This trial tests treatment approaches for people with cancers of the voice box (larynx) or lower throat (hypopharynx). It may help by finding which treatment strategy works best for different tumor locations and cancer stages.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–90 - NCT07441681RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing radiation plus targeted therapy vs standard chemo for head and neck cancer
This trial compares two treatments for advanced head and neck cancer in patients who cannot take the drug cisplatin. One group gets radiation plus a targeted drug called cetuximab, the other gets radiation plus standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see which approach works better and is safer for people who are not candidates for cisplatin.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04754321RecruitingPhase 1
Test immunotherapy with salvage surgery and IORT for head and neck cancer
This Phase 1 trial tests a new plan that combines immunotherapy with surgery, plus a targeted radiation treatment called IORT. It is for people whose head and neck squamous cell cancer has come back or never fully went away and can be operated on. The goal is to shrink or control the cancer and see how safe the approach is.
