New treatment plan for early supraglottic throat cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a treatment approach for early-stage supraglottic (upper voice box) squamous cell carcinoma. It may help improve outcomes while also tracking quality of life during and after treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have confirmed supraglottic squamous cell carcinoma based on a biopsy
- Your cancer stage is early (cT1–T2, and no or limited neck lymph node spread; M0)
- A tumor board (multidisciplinary cancer team) has recommended treatment per major guidelines
- You can do scans of your head/neck and lungs (CT or PET/CT, possibly MRI) within 1 month of enrolling
- You are at least 18, can consent, and your overall health score is 0–2
- You can complete quality-of-life questionnaires

This study compares two standard treatments for early-stage cancer in the upper part of the voice box (supraglottic larynx) that hasn't spread to neck lymph nodes: radiation therapy versus surgical removal of the neck lymph nodes. The goal is to see which approach better controls the cancer while preserving quality of life.
This trial tests a new approach to treat throat cancer while trying to preserve your larynx (voice box). It combines chemotherapy drugs and an immunotherapy drug before surgery or radiation. The goal is to see if this can help you avoid needing to have your larynx removed.
This study compares ways of treating early squamous cell cancer in the tonsil or the tongue base, using either radiation therapy, transoral (through-the-mouth) surgery, or both. It aims to see which approach works best while keeping cancer under control.
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.
This study looks at how well different robotic surgery approaches work for people with early oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (throat cancer). You may be asked for consent for extra tissue and imaging analysis to help researchers understand patterns related to outcomes.
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy for early-stage vocal cord cancer. The aim is to see if giving slightly higher doses per session (3.5 Gy) is safe and effective.
