High-dose Prophylactic Gabapentin (HOPE) vs. Placebo to Prevent Opioid Use for Oral Mucositis Pain During Concurrent Chemoradiation for Head and Neck Cancer
This phase III trial tests if gabapentin can prevent the need for opiate pain medication for mouth sores (oral mucositis) in patients undergoing treatment with chemotherapy and radiation for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck region. Oral mucositis is a common side effect of radiation treatment and can …
Drug Screening Using Novel IMD in Salivary and Head and Neck Cancers
This research study is studying the effect of different drugs as possible treatments for salivary and other head and neck cancers/ The name of the study intervention involved in this study is: \-- implantable microdevice
An Imaging Agent (Pafolacianine) for Identifying Lesions in Pediatric Patients With Primary or Metastatic Solid Tumors
This phase III trial studies how well pafolacianine works for identifying cancerous lesions in children and adolescent patients with primary solid tumors or solid tumors that have spread from where they first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Pafolacianine is a fluorescent imaging agent that targets …
Early Prediction of Oral Cancer by S100A7 Immunohistochemistry Signature-based Assessment
The purpose of this observational study is to evaluate the utility of the S100A7 immunohistochemistry signature-based assessment - STRATICYTE - in determining the risk of progression to cancer of clinically suspicious oral lesions.
Oral Cancer Screening for Early Detection of Premalignant Disorders (PMOD)
Cancer is a complex disease; its different causes and types have a strong impact on patient treatment and prognosis. To improve understanding of the disease, its causes and progression, the investigators will develop a simple, cost-effective system for continuous control of mucosal lesions with non-invasive brush biopsy that can be …
Support Pathway for ENT Cancer Patients in a Support Care Day Hospital
Cancers of the upper respiratory / digestive tract are a major public health problem, ranking 5th among the most common cancers. Surgery plays a central role in the recommended treatments for this type of pathology. The surgical procedure and its after-effects can be anxiety-provoking and have a major psychological, physical …
Study to Assess the Effect of OCT-598 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
This is a Phase 1 study intended to determine the MTD of OCT-598 following multiple-dose therapy and to establish the RP2D for OCT-598 as a single agent, by assessing its safety and tolerability as monotherapy and in combination with standard-of-care treatments in patients with advanced solid tumors.
Testing the Addition of Anti-Cancer Drug, Cetuximab, to Standard of Care Treatment (Pembrolizumab) for Returning or Spreading Head and Neck Cancer After Previous Treatment
This phase III trial compares the effect of adding cetuximab to pembrolizumab versus pembrolizumab alone in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) and/or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places …
Testing the Addition of the Drug BMX-001, a Radioprotector, or a Placebo to the Usual Chemoradiation Therapy for Patients With Head and Neck Cancer
This phase II trial compares the effectiveness of adding BMX-001 to usual symptom management versus usual symptom management alone for reducing oral mucositis in patients who are receiving chemoradiation for head and neck cancer. Oral mucositis (inflammation and mouth sores) is a common side effect of chemoradiation that can cause …
Establishment of a Microfluidic Based Liquid Biopsy Platform for Recurrent/Metastatic Head and Neck Cancers Prognostication Using NK Cell IFN-γ Expression and CTM Correlation With DS-SACA Chip
The goal of this observational study is to learn about the prognostic value of circulation tumor emboli (CTM) in recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancer patients and also the changes of tumor microenvironment by different treatment modalities and drugs. The main questions it aims to answer are: Investigators plan to correlate …
