If you join, you may receive radiation therapy or not, and the researchers will compare the results.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18 years+ - NCT03114462RecruitingPhase 1
Study of focused radiation for laryngeal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a precise type of radiation treatment for people with certain stages of laryngeal (voice box) squamous cell cancer. The goal is to see how safe the treatment is and how well it may work in shrinking or controlling the cancer while aiming to preserve the larynx.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06100497RecruitingPhase 2
PD-1 plus chemo for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (PD-1) and chemotherapy for people with advanced head and neck cancers that are poorly differentiated. The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink tumors before possible surgery or radiation.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06572514RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Lower radiation after chemo-immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests if giving less radiation than usual is safe and effective for certain head and neck cancers after initial treatment with chemotherapy and immunotherapy. It aims to reduce side effects while still controlling the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06725498RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo, radiation, and immunotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy directly into an artery, radiation, and immunotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer. It may offer a new treatment option for people whose cancer hasn't spread to other parts of the body.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07572864RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy and vaccine before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new combination of immunotherapy (a drug that helps your immune system fight cancer) and a mitochondrial vaccine given before surgery for head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to help reduce cancer recurrence and improve survival after surgery.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07567235RecruitingPhase 1
CFH Protein Ice Microneedles for Radiation Skin Damage
