Addressing Taste Dysfunction With Miraculin in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Receiving Radiation Therapy
Patients diagnosed with head and neck cancer who receive radiation therapy with and without chemotherapy develop altered sense of taste due to treatment effect, which typically arises in the second week of radiation therapy and progresses throughout the course of treatment. While some symptoms such as pain, mucositis, and xerostomia …
Study of Non-invasive Acupuncture-like Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (Altens) to Help Alleviate Xerostomia After Radiation Therapy for Cancers of the Head and Neck
The purpose of this study would like to learn if acupuncture-like electrical therapy can be used in patients with head and neck cancer who have had radiation treatment to treat dry mouth.
Benefit of Paramedical Care in Accompanying Caregivers of Patients That Had Surgery for an Head and Neck Invasive Cancer
Head and Neck invasive cancer usually requires surgery that is associated with modifications of the body structure of patient regarding breathing, eating and communication. These modifications are correlated with an important loss of autonomy in patients. During the study, while the patient is hospitalised after the surgery, the paramedical team …
Pilot Study to Evaluate Photoacoustic Imaging in Head and Neck Cancer
In this study, PA imaging will be used to examine the physiological and physical changes in lymph node involvements of head and neck cancer during radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy. Our objective in this pilot study will be to evaluate if PA parameters change within the lymph node involvements during …
Study of RiMO-301 and Radiotherapy With PD-1 Inhibitor for the Treatment of Head-Neck Cancer
This is a prospective, open-label, single arm, non-randomized study of RiMO-301 with hypofractionated radiation and a PD-1 Inhibitor in patients with unresectable, recurrent or metastatic head-neck cancer.
Development and Application of a Nurse-Led Preemptive Symptom Management Protocol for Head and Neck Cancer Patients Undergoing Radiation Therapy
The aim of this study is to investigate whether a nurse-led preemptive symptom management protocol can reduce the radiation therapy interruption rate in patients with head and neck cancer compared to conventional care models.
A Study of Pembrolizumab in Combination With Chemotherapy for Head and Neck Cancer
By doing this study, the research team would like to learn if using a blood test that measures the amount of tumor DNA in blood can help guide how to use chemotherapy combined with immunotherapy for individuals with head and neck cancer. Using this blood test, the research team hopes …
EMST in Patients Undergoing CRT for HNCA
This study is a randomized trial examining the impact of expiratory muscle strength training (EMST) on maintenance of safe and efficient oropharyngeal swallow function in persons with cancer of the head and neck (HNCA) undergoing treatment with radiation therapy or chemoradiotherapy (RT/CRT).
Non-invasive Preoperative Tissue Evaluation in Head and Neck Tumor Patients Using Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT)
Multispectral Optoacoustic Tomography (MSOT) is a promising imaging technology that utilizes pulsed laser light. One of the key capabilities of this technology is measuring oxygenation within human tissue. This proposed study aims to investigate possible limitations of human tissue used for reconstructive surgery due to flawed tissue perfusion. Healthy volunteers …
Exercise and Nutritional Prehabilitation for Head and Neck Cancer Patients
This study examines the acceptability, feasibility, and safety in developing a prehabilitation program for head and neck cancer patients. The purpose of this research is to access the safety and acceptability of using a prehabilitation program before head and neck cancer surgery.
