Testing Less Intensive Radiation With Chemotherapy to Treat Low-risk Patients With HPV-positive Oropharyngeal Cancer
This trial will explore giving standard dose chemotherapy and radiation therapy to sites of disease including all lymph nodes involved with HPV-positive oropharyngeal cancer, but administer lower doses of radiation therapy to the lymph nodes that are not known to be involved with cancer. By doing so, it is hypothesized …
Can Exercise Ameliorate Immunosenescence and Thereby Reduce Relapse in Head and Neck Cancer Patients
Through the implementation of this three-year project, investigators expect to find a safe and effective exercise prescription for patients with oral cancer after surgery. The findings will encourage and promise and add further support to the concept that exercise prescription is worth implementation as part of care for the patients …
Personalized Ultrafractionated Stereotactic Adaptive Radiotherapy for Palliative Head and Neck Cancer Treatment (PULS-Pal)
This trial tests how well personalized ultra fractionated stereotactic adaptive radiotherapy (PULSAR) works together with HyperArc© radiation treatment planning technology for palliative (holistic pain and symptom control) tumor control in patients with primary or recurrent, localized or metastatic head and neck cancer (HNC) who are ineligible for or decline standard …
Olanzapine for Managing Anorexia in Head and Neck Cancer Patients Undergoing Chemoradiation, MACRO Trial
This phase II trial compares the effect of adding olanzapine to standard of care symptom management for nausea to standard of care alone in managing an abnormal loss of the appetite for food (anorexia) in patients treated with chemoradiation therapy (CRT) for head and neck cancer. Patients undergoing CRT may …
Stereotactic Boost and Short-course Radiation Therapy for Oropharynx Cancer
This is a randomized clinical trial comparing the outcomes of short-course chemoradiation consisting in stereotactic boost to the gross tumor and de-esclalated chemoradiation to the elective neck in human papilloma associated oropharynx cancer vs. the current standard 7-week course chemoradiation.
Traditional Chinese Medicine Preparation Alleviates Radiotherapy-induced Oral Mucositis in Head and Neck Cancer Patients.
Evaluate the effectiveness and safety of traditional Chinese medicine compound in improving radiotherapy-induced oral mucositis in patients with head and neck malignant tumors.
Testing the Addition of Ipatasertib to Usual Chemotherapy and Radiation for Head and Neck Cancer
This phase I/Ib trial tests the safety and best dose of ipatasertib in combination with the usual treatment approach using chemotherapy together with radiation therapy ("chemo-radiation") in patients with head and neck cancer. Ipatasertib is in a class of medications called protein kinase B (AKT) inhibitors. It may stop the …
VX15/2503 in Combination With Ipilimumab or Nivolumab in Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
This phase I trial studies how well anti-semaphorin 4D (SEMA4D) monoclonal antibody VX15/2503 (VX15/2503) with or without ipilimumab and/or nivolumab work in treating patients with stage I-IVA head and neck squamous cell cancer. Monoclonal antibodies, such as VX15/2503, ipilimumab, and nivolumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to …
Predictive and Impact of Pain After 6 Months of Radiotherapy, in Head and Neck Cancer
Head and neck cancers are a source of complications and after-effects related to the disease and treatment. These cancers and their treatment alter the quality of life of patients and generate pain with physical and psychological components. Chronic pain affects 36% of patients at 6 months and 30% after this …
