PM2 CAN-IMPACT-IO is a unique national initiative to measure, predict and assess cancer treatment outcomes in patients who have been treated with immunotherapy.
Patients on CCTG clinical trials who consent to CAN-IMPACT-IO will have blood and tumour tissue biopsy taken to analyses to look for features that correlate with benefit or lack of benefit to immunotherapy.
The HN13 clinical trial has recently opened in Canada and will explore a new radiotherapy technique called stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) to treat patients with advanced head and neck cancer. Researchers want to know if SBRT offers better cancer and symptom control than the standard radiotherapy (RT).
