The purpose of this study to find out whether a structured lifestyle intervention-combining nutrition counseling, guided exercise, and wellness education-can help reduce treatment-related side effects and improve physical function, resilience, and quality of life in patients with head and neck cancer undergoing chemoradiation therapy (chemoRT). Benefits of research cannot be …
Study Background and Rationale Head and neck cancer (HNC) is the sixth leading cause of cancer-related death, with over 650,000 new cases diagnosed worldwide each year. About 60% of patients are diagnosed at an advanced stage, and many experience recurrence or spread despite surgery, radiation, or chemotherapy. Major risk factors …
The aim of this randomized controlled trial is to investigate the effects of internet-based support (Carer eSupport) on preparedness for caregiving in informal caregivers of patients with head and neck cancer. The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: What are the effects of internet-based support on informal caregivers preparedness …
Investigators have recently shown that epigenetic remodelling enzymes, such as HDAC inhibitors, are feasible drugs in HNC (8, 9). Preliminary data are indicating some deregulated epigenetics marks suggesting the corresponding histone modifiers as possible targets for the treatment of HNC, providing an attractive and feasible option to build upon. Our …
The PI and the research team developed the New York University (NYU) Electronic Patient Visit Assessment (ePVA) for head and neck cancer (HNC) as a patient-reported outcome measure (PRO) for the early detection of uncontrolled symptoms. The ePVA is digital patient-reported symptom monitoring system, providing actionable information at point-of-care that …
This is a phase Ib study with a safety lead-in (n = 6 per arm) evaluating combinatorial DPV-001 + sequenced PD-1 blockade, with or without GITR agonist, in recurrent or metastatic HNSCC.
The primary aim of the study is to investigate the feasibility of a prehabilitation program, which consists of a set of strategies including physical activity, nutritional support, and psychological counseling, carried out before and during cancer treatment for patients affected by head and neck tumors. About 4 weeks before surgery …
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma is a heterogeneous cancer with varying prognoses depending on anatomical location and characteristics, and advanced cancers have a poor prognosis. This study aimed to examine changes in the tumor microenvironment and systemic immune system before and after combination therapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors, the …
The purpose of this research is to help researchers understand the barriers, supports, and preferences for prehabilitation. Prehabilitation in this study means head and neck cancer patients will receive nutritional counseling sessions and attend exercise programs before and during radiotherapy/chemoradiotherapy treatment.
To find the recommended dose of an investigational therapy called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR).TROP2/interleukin (IL)15-transduced TGFBR2 KO cord blood (CB)-derived natural killer (NK) cells (TROP2 CAR/IL-15 TGFBR2 KO NK cells) that can be given with and without preconditioning radiation therapy in patients with advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
