Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Oropharynx, HPV Positive Cancer, Throat Cancer, Tonsil Cancer
The purpose of this study is to test the potential for a liquid biopsy assay to detect residual disease after surgery in patients with cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma as well as the potential for this assay to monitor response to immunotherapy treatment.
Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects and best dose of tumor membrane vesicle (TMV) vaccine therapy alone and in combination with pembrolizumab and evaluates how well it works in treating patients with head and neck squamous cell cancer that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent) or that has spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic). Vaccines made from a person's tumor cells, such as TMV vaccines, may help the body build an effective immune response to kill tumor cells. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving TMV vaccine therapy alone or with pembrolizumab may be safe, tolerable and/or effective in treating patients with recurrent and/or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer.

Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer, Metastatic Head and Neck Cancer, HPV Positive Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma, Neoplasms, Head and Neck, Unresectable Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
Pembrolizumab and nivolumab (with or without chemotherapy) are used to treat head and neck cancer. The middle part of the throat (oropharynx) is a common location for head and neck cancer. This cancer is known as oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC) and is most often caused by human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. This real-world evidence study carried out in the United States (US) will assess patient demographic and clinical characteristics, treatment patterns, and effectiveness of pembrolizumab and nivolumab (with or without chemotherapy) in patients with HPV positive (HPV+) OPSCC after their cancer spread (metastatic) and/or returned (recurrent). The collected real-world data can be compared with data derived from matched study populations in clinical studies that test new therapies in patients with HPV+ OPSCC. This will allow a more reliable evaluation of the clinical benefits and better-informed design of future clinical studies in this patient population.
Oropharyngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study will test the ability of a personalized blood test to determine which head and neck cancer patients will have a recurrence after treatment.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
Master protocol: The main goal of this master clinical study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of multiple novel combination therapies in participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) in various substudies.
Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if ASP-1929 photoimmunotherapy (PIT) in combination with pembrolizumab works to treat recurrent squamous cell cancer of the head and neck (HNSCC) with no distant metastases. It will also learn about the safety of ASP-1929 PIT in combination with pembrolizumab. Researchers will compare ASP-1929 PIT in combination with pembrolizumab to pembrolizumab alone or pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy (carboplatin or cisplatin, plus 5-fluorouracil or paclitaxel or docetaxel) according to physician's choice (control arm). The overall primary study hypothesis being tested is whether ASP-1929 PIT plus pembrolizumab combination treatment improves the overall survival (OS) of the population defined by the inclusion/exclusion criteria over the control arm.
Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This study is investigating the effects on immune cells of injecting the influenza vaccine (also known as "flu shot") into cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC) tumors prior to having standard-of-care Mohs excision surgery. The study will help understand if the addition of the influenza vaccine could improve the immune system response against the cancer. The names of the study drug involved in this study is: -Fluzone Influenza vaccine (flu shot)
Skin Cancer, Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (CSCC), Cutaneous Squamous Cell Cancer
This is a single-center, non-interventional, observational study that evaluates the correlation of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) testing to cancer relapse for participants with head and neck squamous cell carcinomas (HNC) after curative-intent primary radiation or surgery.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
The purpose of this study is to evaluate whether Time Restricted Eating (TRE) can improve responses in participants with metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer (mHNSCC) receiving Immune Checkpoint Blockers (ICB) by changing the gut microbiome (the bacteria and other microorganisms living in individual's bodies). A particular focus of this study is to compare the outcomes of African American participants when compared to the rest of the participant population. TRE is a form of intermittent fasting where food and drink intake is limited to a specific time window during the day. The information learned from this study may help researchers develop new strategies to improve outcomes in patients with mHNSCC in the future. Participants will be asked to complete a dietary survey at baseline and week 9 and provide a baseline stool and blood sample. Two weeks before beginning ICB and after participants completed the baseline assessments, they will begin TRE. TRE will be defined as limiting food and drink intake to a 10 hour window during each day and fasting for 14 hours at night. Participants will be asked to complete a daily food log to document the times they eat and drink. On day 1 of ICB and weeks 3, 6, 9, 26, and 52 after ICB, participants will be asked to collect a blood sample and a toxicity assessment will be performed. On day 1 of ICB and weeks 9, 26, and 52 of ICB, participants will be asked to provide a stool sample. Participants will also undergo tumor imaging throughout the study as part of their standard of care assessments. If a participant's disease progresses after ICB, they will repeat all study assessments and be withdrawn from the study.
Metastatic Head-and-neck Squamous-cell Carcinoma
This study will test a study drug called cemiplimab to see if it can help treat early-stage cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), a type of skin cancer. Cemiplimab works by helping the immune system to kill cancer cells. It binds to a protein called programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) on the surface of certain immune cells. The main purpose of this study is to compare how well cemiplimab works compared to surgery, when injected into the lesion. The study is looking at: * The side effects cemiplimab might cause * How well cemiplimab works
Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma (CSCC)
This phase II trial studies how well pembrolizumab works in treating patients with orbital (eye socket) and/or periorbital (surrounding the eye socket) cutaneous squamous cell cancer (cSCC) that has spread to nearby tissue or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Skin cancers that are close to the eye or on the eyelid often have more genetic (heredity) changes than other types of cancers. This means that the deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) (the building blocks of the body that determine such things as the color of the hair) in tumor tissue has been altered compared to normal tissue. It is thought cancer cells with these DNA changes are more likely to respond to a type of drug called immunotherapy. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Pembrolizumab is approved for patients with recurrent or metastatic cSCC not amenable (responsive) to cure by surgery or radiation. Giving pembrolizumab may work better in treating patients with locally advanced or recurrent orbital and/or periorbital cSCC.
Locally Advanced Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck, Recurrent Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck, Stage III Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck AJCC v8
The goal of this clinical trial is to test how safe and effective it is to treat early form of cancer cells found in the upper skin layer of the face, using a light-sensitive gel used in combination with a light source. The main questions this trial aims to answer are: * to confirm using laboratory testing, how much of the affected facial skin cancer section the treatment was able to remove, and; * seeing how many participants had no remaining affected facial skin cancer sections after treatment. Participants who qualify will be asked to complete 14 visits in total and will receive a total of two treatments, after voluntarily consent has been given.

The researchers are doing this study to find out if HB-202/HB-201 is a feasible treatment for people with HPV 16-positive head and neck squamous cell cancer (HPV 16+ HNSCC) who have received standard treatment for their disease but then tested positive for HPV 16-related tumor DNA in the blood through a test called NavDx. Participants will have no evidence of cancer on imaging scans (radiographically) or by medical examination (clinically). Past studies have shown that a positive NavDx test strongly suggests the possible presence of microscopic cancer, though we do not know if testing positive will definitely lead to the cancer coming back (recurrence). The NavDx blood test has not been approved by the FDA and is considered investigational.
HPV16+ Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The goal of this clinical trial is to see if the combination of experimental drug ASTX727 and Nivolumab enhances the antitumor immune response in participants will recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. Participants will take a pill called ASTX727 for 4 or 5 days every month followed by an injection of Nivolumab one week after the first dose of study medication.

This study is evaluating INCB081776 when given in combination with the checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab and palliative radiation therapy in patients with metastatic or recurrent metastatic or recurrent head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). 12 participants will be enrolled and can expect to be on study for up to 12 months.
Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
This is a two-part (Phase 2/Phase 3) study of intismeran autogene, an individualized neoantigen therapy (INT), plus pembrolizumab in participants with locally resectable advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (LA cSCC). Phase 2 has three arms intismeran autogene plus pembrolizumab given as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment with standard of care (SOC), standard of care (surgical resection with/without adjuvant radiation therapy (RT) only at investigator's discretion) and pembrolizumab monotherapy given as neoadjuvant and adjuvant treatment with SOC. This phase will assess the safety and efficacy of intismeran autogene in combination with pembrolizumab as neoadjuvant and adjuvant therapy in participants with resectable LA cSCC as compared to standard of care SOC only. The primary hypothesis is that intismeran autogene plus pembrolizumab with SOC is superior to SOC only with respect to event free survival (EFS) as assessed by the investigator. Phase 3 expansion will be determined by prespecified Go-No-Go decision in which 412 additional participants will be randomized to intismeran autogene plus pembrolizumab with SOC and SOC only, without changing the inclusion/exclusion criteria for the additional enrollment or study endpoints.
Carcinoma, Squamous Cell, Skin Neoplasms
The goal of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of Dostarlimab compared to Placebo in adult participants with HNSCC (Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma)
Neoplasms, Head and Neck
This phase Ib trial tests the safety, side effects and how well losartan, pembrolizumab and stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for the treatment of patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back to nearby tissue or lymph node after a period of improvement (locally recurrent), that has not responded to previous treatment (refractory) or that has spread from where it first started to multiple other placed in the body (oligometastatic). Losartan is a drug used to treat high blood pressure that may enhance the effects of other cancer treatments such as immunotherapy and radiation. Immunotherapy with pembrolizumab may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. SBRT is a type of external radiation therapy that uses special equipment to position a patient and precisely deliver radiation to tumors in the body (except the brain). The total dose of radiation is divided into smaller doses given over several days. This type of radiation therapy helps spare normal tissue. Giving losartan, pembrolizumab and SBRT may work better in treating patients with locally recurrent, refractory or oligometastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
