A Platform Study of Novel Immunotherapy Combinations as First-Line Treatment in Participants With PD-L1 Positive Recurrent/Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck- GALAXIES H&N-202

A Phase 2, Randomized, Open-label, Platform Study Using a Master Protocol to Evaluate Novel Immunotherapy Combinations as First-Line Treatment in Participants With Recurrent/Metastatic PD-L1 Positive Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 24 Sept 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The primary purpose of the study is to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of novel immunotherapy combinations compared with dostarlimab in participants with Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) positive Recurrent/Metastatic (R/M) Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (HNSCC).

What you commit to

  • Study type: Interventional · Phase 2
  • Participants enrolled: 316
  • From 14 Nov 2023 to the primary completion date, 10 Sept 2026
  • 94 sites in 20 countries
  • Visits and tests: ask the trial team, the registry does not list them

Built from the registry fields of ClinicalTrials.gov. It describes the study, not your situation.

Who cannot take part

Copied verbatim from ClinicalTrials.gov and grouped by topic. Only the trial team decides who can take part.

Other illness

  • Participants with previous malignancies (except non-melanoma skin cancers, and the following in situ cancers: bladder, gastric, esophageal, colon, endometrial, cervical/dysplasia, melanoma, or breast) unless a complete remission was achieved at least 2 years prior to study entry AND no additional therapy is required during the study period.
  • Have active tumor bleeding or a high risk of bleeding (examples include but are not limited to radiographic evidence of major blood vessel invasion/infiltration or tumor demonstrates \>90 degree abutment or encasement of a major vessel \[carotid, jugular, bronchial artery\] and/or exhibits other high-risk features such as arteriovenous fistula).
  • Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic disease-modifying or immunosuppressive treatment within the last 2 years. (Stable, medically managed autoimmune endocrinopathies are acceptable if participant otherwise meets entry criteria.)

Lab values

  • Has received prior therapy with any immune checkpoint inhibitors, including antibodies or drugs targeting Programmed death protein 1 (PD-1), PD-L1, Cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA-4), T cell immunoreceptor with immunoglobulin and immunoreceptor tyrosine based inhibitory motif domains (TIGIT), Cluster of differentiation (CD) 96, or other immune checkpoint pathways.

Other

  • Has PD within 4 months of completion of curatively intended treatment for locoregionally advanced HNSCC
  • Participants with any carcinomatous meningitis or leptomeningeal spread and those with uncontrolled or symptomatic Central Nervous System (CNS) metastases

Who the study is looking for

  • Have histologically or cytologically-confirmed HNSCC that is R/M and is considered incurable by local therapies. A) Subjects must not have had prior systemic therapy administered in the R/M setting. Chemoradiation therapy which was completed more than 4 months prior to signing consent if given as part of multimodal treatment for locally advanced disease is allowed B) The eligible primary tumor locations are oropharynx, oral cavity, hypopharynx, and larynx C) Subjects may not have a primary tumor site of nasopharynx (any histology)
  • Has measurable (target) disease based on RECIST 1.1 as determined by the investigator.
  • Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0 or 1
  • Provides a tumor tissue sample obtained at the time of or after the initial diagnosis of R/M HNSCC. A fresh tumor tissue sample obtained within 90 days of screening is highly preferred, If fresh biopsy is not possible, an archival tumor specimen is acceptable unless it was obtained prior to administration of chemoradiation for the treatment of a participant's tumor. Needle or excisional biopsies or resected tissue is required. Cytological specimens such as fine needle aspirates, bone marrow samples, or cell blocks are not acceptable. Bone specimen is not acceptable.
  • Has tumor Programmed death ligand 1 (PD-L1) expression
  • If the primary tumor site is oropharyngeal carcinoma, the participant must have Human papillomavirus (HPV) results
