Identification of Predictive Factors for the Response to Anti-Programmed Cell Death Protein 1 (PD1) Immunotherapy in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This project aims to organise the sampling of blood and tumor at key points of the standard of care of patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC). This will allow to identify new potential predictive biomarkers of efficacy of immunotherapy and to investigate the …
EVEREST-HN 1: EVolution of a patiEnt-REported Symptom-based Risk Stratification sySTem
Can a patient-reported symptom-based risk stratification system improve the suspected head and neck cancer (HNC) pathway? Our methodology includes six interlinked work packages to deliver our aim, with EVEREST-HN 1 encompassing the first of these and seeking to optimise a patient-reported symptom inventory for HNC and outline requirement specification for …
Exploratory Study of Early Biomarkers Allowing Dynamic Assessment of Response to Treatment in Cancers of the Head and Neck
DART is an exploratory molecular analysis study to assess potential early biomarkers of treatment response in squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (HNSCC)
Exploratory Study of Clonal Evolution in Cancer for Patients Undergoing Transoral Robotic Surgery for Radiation Exposed Residual/reCurrent Tumours of the Upper Aerodigestive Tract
Radical radiotherapy for head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC) can be administered to primary disease with curative intent. Residual disease, recurrence or further tumours may subsequently occur in this irradiated field. It is unknown whether these cancers reflect primary resistance or represent the evolution of resistance on treatment. Understanding …
Evaluation of the Implementation of Personalised Follow-up in Head and Neck Cancer
The NHS Long Term Plan for Cancer has set out the strategy to deliver personalised care to every patient treated for cancer (1) to improve experience and quality of life for patients. Personalised Follow-Up (PFU) focuses on the tailored needs of patients who have completed cancer treatment and PFU programmes …
Preclinical Research for Personalized TCR-T Therapy for Head and Neck Cancer
This study will obtain tumor samples from patients with head and neck cancers and aims to develop personalized TCR-T therapy for head and neck cancer by determining the reactive TCR clone sequences in head and neck cancer.
Individualized Follow-Up for Head and Neck Cancer
This pilot study evaluates offering Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) patients a choice between standardized and individualized follow-up after HNC treatment. Following treatment, the patient will be educated about self-examination of the head and neck and which physical symptoms require a follow-up visit. After completing 1.5 years of uncomplicated guideline-prescribed …
Impact in Head and Neck Oncology of Support by a Nurse in the Patient's Care Pathway
Head and neck cancers (HNC) constitute a significant global health burden, ranking fourth in terms of cancer incidence and fifth in terms of cancer-related mortality. The management of HNC requires a complex array of consultations, examinations, rehabilitation, and lifestyle modifications, including addiction cessation. These cancers disproportionately affect economically disadvantaged, socially …
DOsimetry and Radiation Induced NAusea in Head and Neck Cancers
This is a prospective cohort study for the analysis of correlation between dosimetric parameters and RANV (Radiation Associated Nausea and Vomiting) in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing exclusive radiotherapy (RT). The primary purpose of this study is to search for a potential correlation between dosimetry and physician- and …
Predicting Toxicity in Elderly Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
Predicting toxicity in elderly patients with head and neck cancer: validating a disease-oriented toxicity predictive tool and integrating it with avail-able screening tools for better outcomes.
