Official title

A Phase 1 Dose Escalation Study of GC4419 in Combination With Radiation and Chemotherapy for Squamous Cell Cancers of the Head and Neck.

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability, and the highest dose of GC4419 that can be given to patients with squamous cell cancer of the head and neck who are receiving standard radiation therapy and chemotherapy. This study will also evaluate GC4419 for the following: * Effect on the incidence and severity of radiation induced oral mucositis; * Effect on the response rate of squamous cell cancer of the head and neck who are receiving radiation therapy and chemotherapy; * Total concentrations of GC4419 that can be achieved in the blood; * Changes in proteins and genetics associated with oral mucositis; * Impact on delayed toxicities of radiation (dry mouth and reduced ability to fully open the mouth); * Observe changes in genetic and molecular markers of oral mucositis; * Observe the usage of extra health resources (e.g., unplanned ER visits, feeding tube use, etc.) of study patients; * Assess the overall quality of life in study patients with oral mucositis.
