Summary

This research is studying the safety and effectiveness of AMD3100 and pembrolizumab in participants with metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.

DRUG

AMD3100

AMD3100 is a drug that inhibits a chemokine CXCR4 which promotes cancer cell growth, spread, and survival and controls immune cell trafficking. Inhibiting CXCR4 expels the immune-suppressive cells out of the tumor and attract the cancer-killing immune cells into the tumor environment so that the body's immune system may be able to better attack the cancer cells.

DRUG

Pembrolizumab

Pembrolizumab is thought to block a receptor called PD-1. This receptor usually acts as a "brake" to prevent the body's immune system from attacking cancer cells. The antibody "removes the brake" to allow parts of the body's immune system (usually T cells) to attack the tumor.
