Summary

This Phase 2a/2 study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of neoadjuvant and adjuvant NAI, hAd5-HPV vaccine (IBRX-042), and nab-paclitaxel in participants with locally advanced HPV-positive oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OPSCC). The study includes a Phase 2a safety lead-in followed by a randomized Phase 2 comparison of a de-intensified experimental chemoradiation approach versus standard-of-care chemoradiation.
