Summary

"This trial will determine if Dostarlimab is safe and effective compared to a placebo for adults with Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma."

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that cannot be removed by surgery. Participants should have completed chemoradiation therapy. Specific eligibility criteria are not provided, but typically include good organ function and no other serious medical conditions.
What is being tested?
The study is testing the safety and effectiveness of Dostarlimab, an immunotherapy drug, compared to a placebo (a substance with no active drug). It aims to see if Dostarlimab can improve outcomes after standard treatment with chemoradiation.
What are the potential side effects?
Dostarlimab may cause side effects similar to other immunotherapies which can include fatigue, rash, diarrhea, liver inflammation, hormone gland problems like thyroid disorders, and could potentially worsen pre-existing autoimmune diseases.
