About this study
Official title: A Phase 3, Randomized, Open-Label, Multicenter Study of Amivantamab in Addition to Carboplatin and Pembrolizumab, Compared to Standard of Care Platinum and Pembrolizumab and 5-FU, in Participants With Treatment-Naïve Recurrent/Metastatic Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma
The purpose of this study is to compare anti-tumor activity of amivantamab in addition to pembrolizumab and carboplatin versus pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil (FU), and platinum therapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in participants with refractory/metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). HNSCC is a type of cancer that develops in the head and neck regions, including the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat. This study will focus on participants with HNSCC who are treatment-naive (have not received prior treatment) in the R/M setting.
- Conditions
- Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck
- Being tested
- Amivantamab, Pembrolizumab, Carboplatin, 5-Flurouracil, Cisplatin

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Overall Survival (OS)
OS is defined as time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Objective Response Rate (ORR) Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1 as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)
ORR is defined as the percentage of randomized participants achieving a confirmed best overall response (BOR) of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) by BICR using RECIST version 1.1 .
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Secondary outcomes (12)
Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Using RECIST Version 1.1, as Assessed by BICR
PFS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of objective disease progression or death (due to any cause), whichever comes first, based on BICR assessment using RECIST v1.1, regardless of treatment discontinuation or start of subsequent anticancer therapy.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Duration of Response (DOR) As Assessed by BICR
DOR as assessed by BICR is defined as the time from the date of first documented response (CR or PR) until the date of documented progression or death, whichever comes first, for participants who have PR or CR as best response.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
ORR as Assessed by Investigator
ORR as assessed by the investigator is defined as the percentage of randomized participants achieving CR or PR, as defined by investigator assessment using RECIST v1.1 criteria.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)
TEAE is defined as any new or worsening adverse event (AE) occurring at or after the initial administration of study treatment through the day of last dose plus 30 days or prior to the start of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever is earlier, or any follow-up AE with onset date and time beyond 30 days after the last dose of study treatment but prior to the start of subsequent therapy or any AE that is considered treatment-related regardless of the start date of the event.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Number of Participants with Laboratory Abnormalities
Blood samples will be collected to determine the laboratory (serum chemistry and hematology) abnormalities.
Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Percentage of Participants with Improved or Stable Symptoms Compared to Baseline as Measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Head and Neck Module 43 (EORTC QLQ-HN43) Symptom Scale Score
EORTC QLQ-HN43, is a self-administered, 43-item questionnaire measuring the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of participants with head and neck cancer. EORTC QLQ-HN43 includes 19 scales (anxiety, body image, coughing, dry mouth and sticky saliva, neurological problems, opening mouth, pain in the mouth, social contact, problems with senses, shoulder problems, skin problems, swelling in the neck, social eating, speech, swallowing, sexuality, problems with teeth, weight loss, and problems with wound healing). Responses to items are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Higher scores indicate worse health outcomes.
Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Percentage of Participants with Improved or Stable Symptoms Compared to Baseline as Measured by EORTC QLQ-Core (C) 30 Symptom Scale Score
EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent." Higher scores indicate greater functioning, better global health status, or more severe symptoms.
Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Change from Baseline in Functioning HRQoL, as Measured by Functioning Scales of the EORTC QLQ-C30
EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), a global health status / quality of life scale, and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent." Higher scores indicate greater functioning, better global health status, or more severe symptoms.
Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months
Change from Baseline in Overall HRQoL, as Measured by Global Health Scales of the EORTC QLQ-C30
EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), a global health status / quality of life scale, and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent."

Clinical summary
The research question as the sponsor registered it. This describes what the study plans to test, not what it found.
The purpose of this study is to compare anti-tumor activity of amivantamab in addition to pembrolizumab and carboplatin versus pembrolizumab, 5-fluorouracil (FU), and platinum therapy (carboplatin or cisplatin) in participants with refractory/metastatic (R/M) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). HNSCC is a type of cancer that develops in the head and neck regions, including the outer tissue layer of the mouth and throat. This study will focus on participants with HNSCC who are treatment-naive (have not received prior treatment) in the R/M setting.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 205 sites in United States, China, United Kingdom, France, Germany and 17 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this phase mean?
Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
