Summary
This trial will test if a drug can reduce cancer growth in the head/neck before surgery.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Stage II-IV HPV-negative squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck, who can swallow pills, have no distant metastases, and are planning surgery as primary therapy. Participants must not be pregnant or breastfeeding and agree to use contraception. They should have adequate organ function and no recent vaccines or major surgeries.
What is being tested?
The study tests TTI-101's effectiveness in reducing tumor growth before standard surgery compared to a control group receiving no TTI-101. It's a randomized trial where patients are assigned by chance to either receive TTI-101 or be in the control group prior to their planned surgical treatment.
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of TTI-101 aren't listed here, similar drugs may cause allergic reactions, liver issues (as indicated by eligibility criteria), fatigue, digestive problems, blood disorders, increased risk of infection, and potential heart complications.
