The purpose of this proposed study is to obtain safety and efficacy data on human laryngeal allograft transplantation in an effort to safely use these procedures as a viable reconstructive option for patients with severe laryngeal or laryngotracheal incompetence.

In-depth qualitative interviews will be performed to explore beliefs of laryngotracheal transplant candidates, their caregivers, and clinicians about their perceptions and experience of the laryngotracheal transplantation process. In addition, we will explore the quality of life of patients with a laryngectomy.

The goal of this research study is to evaluate the impact of surgical interventions on circulating biomarker dynamics and establish their prognostic role in carcinoma of the head and neck treated with intended curative surgery.

This is a randomized, open-label, multi-center, 3-arm, global Phase III study to determine the efficacy and safety of MEDI4736 + tremelimumab combination or MEDI4736 monotherapy versus SoC (EXTREME regimen) in the treatment of patients with SCCHN who have not received prior systemic chemotherapy for recurrent or metastatic disease.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the combination of retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and retifanlimab plus INCAGN02385 and INCAGN02390 compared with retifanlimab alone as first-line treatment in PD-L1-positive and systemic therapy-naive recurrent/metastatic (R/M) squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN).

This study aims to assess the utility of pharyngeal manometry measures as a novel approach in quantifying  internal lymphedema and compare success rates in reducing internal lymphedema using manual lymphatic drainage (MLD) versus use of a pneumatic compression device (PCD). It also aims to assess efficacy of PCD and MLD and assess compliance of treatment in both groups. Lastly, it aims to identify voice and swallowing changes in both groups.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of single agent HFB301001 and to determine recommended dose expansino (RDE(s) and a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D).

This study observes the clinical efficacy of combining proton SBRT with PD-1 blockade immunotherapy in both the locoregionally recurrent and metastatic settings.

The purpose of this 2 cohort study is to evaluate the effectiveness of tipifarnib in HRAS mutant HNSCC (AIM-HN). The first cohort will assess the objective response rate (ORR) of tipifarnib in subjects with HNSCC with HRAS mutations. The second study cohort, SEQ-HN, is an observational sub-study and includes 2 types of patients: (1) the historical record of first line therapy in subjects with HRAS mutant HNSCC participating in Cohort 1 in whom first line outcome data are available and (2) matched control HNSCC patients in whom HRAS mutations were not identified (wild type HRAS HNSCC) and who consent to provide first ...

The purpose of the investigation is to learn whether intense swallowing exercise or intense swallowing exercise coupled with electrical stimulation (E-Stim) helps patients who had head/neck cancer and currently have dysphagia swallow better.

This phase II trial studies how well radiation therapy with or without cisplatin works in treating patients with stage III-IV squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck who have undergone surgery. Radiation therapy uses high energy x-rays to kill tumor cells and shrink tumors. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cisplatin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. It is not yet known if radiation therapy is more effective with or without cisplatin in treating patients with squamous cell ...

The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the safety and tolerability of JAB-3312 in combination with anti-PD-1 mAb or MEKi or KRASi or EGFR-TKI in patients with advanced solid tumors.

The purpose of this study is to test the safety and tolerability of HFB200301 in patients with advanced cancers. There are two parts in this study. During the escalation part, groups of participants will receive increasing doses until a safe and tolerable dose of HFB200301 is determined. During the expansion part, participants will take the dose of study drug that was determined from the escalation part of the study and will be assigned to a group based on the type of cancer the participants have.
