Thermoradiotherapy for Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Patients with head and neck cancer treated with radiotherapy (RT) have a substantial change of recurrence of the tumor in the pharynx or lymph nodes in the neck. Once tumor and/or lymph nodes have recurred, the prognosis is poor. To increase the efficacy of RT, usually chemotherapy is added to …
Head and Neck Cancer Patient Symptom and Oncologic Outcomes
This trial investigates a new approach using a mobile three-dimensional (3D) scanning application for volumetric measurement of the head and neck region in patients with head and neck lymphedema. Lymphedema is the buildup of extra lymph fluid in tissues that causes swelling. Accurate volumetric measurements of swelling are crucial to …
Pembrolizumab and Radiotherapy for Oligometastatic Head and Neck Cancer
This is a randomized open-label multicentre phase III superiority study of the effect of adding SABR to the standard of care treatment pembrolizumab on progression free survival in patients with oligometastases of a squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN), histological confirmation of the primary disease at first …
The Hypotension Prediction Index in Free Flap Transplant in Head and Neck Surgery.
The aim of the current study is to evaluate the effects of the Hypotension Prediction Index (HPI) on the degree of intraoperative hypotension in patients undergoing free flap surgery. The hypothesis is that implementation of the HPI algorithm will reduce the time-weighted average (TWA) intraoperative hypotension below a threshold of …
Atorvastatin to Reduce Cisplatin-Induced Hearing Loss Among Individuals With Head and Neck Cancer
Background Cisplatin is used to treat head and neck cancer. People who take this drug are at risk for hearing loss. Atorvastatin is a drug used to treat high cholesterol. It might reduce the risk of cisplatin-induced hearing loss. Objective To find out if atorvastatin reduces hearing loss in people …
PIRATES: Image-guided Hyper-fractioned Dose-escalation With Proton Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer
In this study the safety & feasibility of image-guided mid-treatment hyper-fractioned dose-escalation with proton therapy will be assessed for the treatment of locally advanced HPV-negative squamous cell oropharyngeal cancer
Personalized, Adaptive Treatment for Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer
This clinical trial will assess whether or not blood based biomarker testing can be used to personalize cancer treatment for patients with locally advanced head and neck cancer.
Autologous CAR-T Cells Targeting CSPG4 in Relapsed/Refractory HNSCC
The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of using a new treatment called autologous T lymphocyte chimeric antigen receptor cells against the CSPG4 antigen (iC9.CAR-CSPG4 T cells) in patients with head and neck cancer that came back after receiving standard therapy for this cancer. The …
Evaluation of On-Couch CBCT Image Quality
This is a prospective, single-arm, single-site study designed to generate data describing the image quality and applicability/useability of a high-performance, on-couch CBCT imaging technology (HyperSight) in patients receiving radiation treatment for cancer on a C-arm linear accelerator (TrueBeam).
Surface Monitoring Technology to Remove The Mask - Stage 1
A pilot-stage device feasibility study investigating a mask-free motion-monitoring patient immobilisation system for use during radiation therapy treatment of head and neck cancer (HNC). This mask-free system combines the standard radiation therapy (RT) head rest to help the patient remain still with a surface guidance detection system that uses sensors …
