Immune cell therapy for advanced head and neck cancer
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (GT201) combined with a PD-1 inhibitor for advanced head and neck cancer. It aims to see if your own immune cells, collected from your tumor, can be boosted to fight the cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have advanced head or neck cancer that has come back or spread, and you've had 2 or fewer prior treatments.
- You are between 18 and 70 years old.
- You are healthy enough to have a small surgery to remove a piece of your tumor (about the size of a grape).
- Your major organs (heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, blood) are working well.
- You don't have active infections, autoimmune diseases, or uncontrolled bleeding risks.

This trial tests a combination of immune therapy, targeted drugs, and a virus-based treatment before surgery for head and neck cancer that has spread to lymph nodes. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
This trial looks at whether giving an immunotherapy drug (a PD-1 inhibitor) after surgery is better than giving radiation therapy for people with advanced head and neck cancer who had a complete response to chemotherapy and immunotherapy before surgery. The goal is to prevent the cancer from coming back.
This trial is for people with advanced head and neck cancer who had good response to chemotherapy plus immunotherapy before surgery. It compares two different follow-up treatments: more immunotherapy or radiation therapy to help prevent cancer from coming back.
This study focuses on testing a personalized immune therapy (made from your tumor-fighting T cells) for people with head and neck cancer. It may help patients whose cancer is new and untreated or whose cancer has come back or is not responding to standard options.
This study tests a new treatment that uses your own immune cells, called TIL, to fight advanced solid tumors. It may be given alone or with another drug that helps the immune system attack cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and effective for people who have already tried other treatments.
This trial tests a combination of three treatments—nimotuzumab (a targeted therapy), a PD-1 inhibitor (which boosts your immune system), and chemotherapy—followed by surgery for locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve survival.
