Carboplatin + Paclitaxel + Cetuximab (PCC) After Failure of Pembrolizumab +/- First-line Chemotherapy in Recurrent/Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

Is NCT06725368 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies PCC for head and neck cancer.

Treatment: PCC — This study targets an adult population of patients with recurrent or metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), who have failed after a first line of treatment with pembrolizumab associated or not with chemotherapy and having an indication for a second line of treatment. Patients will be recruited in France in medical oncology departments. The main objective is to evaluate the objective response rate of PCC in patients with HNSCC with locoregional and/or distant 2nd line metastatic disease after failure of pembrolizumab +/- chemotherapy. The secondary objectives of the study are to evaluate other efficacy parameters by monitoring the progression of the disease, the tolerance of the treatment by collecting adverse effects and quality of life. The duration of participation in the research is 12 months.
