Study Summary

This trial is evaluating the safety and efficacy of REGN6956 as monotherapy and in combination with cemiplimab. The primary objective is to assess the safety and tolerability of the combination. Secondary objectives include assessing the preliminary efficacy of the combination as measured by objective response rate, disease control rate, duration of response, progression-free survival, and overall survival.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors, specifically those with unresectable or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma who haven't had immune checkpoint blockade therapy, have exhausted all treatment options, and can provide tumor tissue for biopsies. Excluded are those on recent systemic biologics or continuous steroids, with significant autoimmune disease, recent live vaccines (including COVID-19 vaccine within certain time frames), organ transplants, prior GITR-targeted therapy, interstitial lung disease/pneumonitis history, or uncontrolled HIV/Hepatitis.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing REGN6569 alone and in combination with cemiplimab to evaluate safety and tolerability initially. It aims to measure the effectiveness of this combo by looking at response rates and survival outcomes in patients. The study will also examine how the body processes these drugs and their potential to provoke an immune response.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include typical reactions associated with immunotherapy such as inflammation of organs (like colitis), skin reactions (rash), fatigue, possible infusion-related reactions like fever or chills during administration of the drug(s), as well as increased risk of infections due to immune system modulation.
