Are you an elderly patient with locally advanced Head and Neck squamous cell carcinoma who is ineligible for standard treatment involving platinum based therapy (e.g. Carboplatin or Cisplatin)? If so, you may be eligible to participate in a clinical research study involving an investigational drug, called NBTXR3.
Do you have known or suspected lung and/or head and neck cancer? Are you scheduled for a tumor biopsy? If so, you may be able to participate in a research registry aimed at learning more about lung and head/neck cancer.
Are you receiving initial treatment for non-small cell lung cancer or invasive squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck and want to participate in research that aims to improve treatment and care of future patients with the same diagnosis? If so, you may be able to participate in a study for an investigational blood test to predict whether your cancer will come back.
Have you been diagnosed with oropharyngeal (tonsil or tongue base) cancer. If so, you may be able to take part in a research study testing markers to determine who may be appropriate for less aggressive therapy and markers to determine if recurrent tumors can be detected earlier.
Do you have head and neck cancer or soft tissue sarcoma? Are you planning to have surgery to remove your tumor? You may be able to participate in a research study to determine which therapies may be best for future patients. Compensation provided.
Will you be treated for Locally Advanced Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma? Have you been cancer free for at least two years after previous treatment? If so, you may eligible to participate in a clinical research trial aimed to measure the level of ctDNA in the blood before and after treatment.
