Brief Summary:
A Phase 3, Randomized, Double-Arm, Open-Label, Controlled Trial of ASP-1929 vs Physician's Choice Standard of Care for the Treatment of Locoregional, Recurrent Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Patients Who Have Failed or Progressed On or After at Least Two Lines of Therapy

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Head and Neck Cancer Combination Product: ASP-1929 Photoimmunotherapy Drug: Physician's Choice SOC Phase 3

Detailed Description:

The study will have an Experimental Arm and a Control Arm.

Experimental Arm:

Patients may receive repeated ASP-1929 PIT interventions for a period of up to 12 months after randomization until the patient has complete remission, progressive disease that is no longer amendable to study treatment, patient experiences intolerable side effects, or patient discontinues study treatment.

Control Arm:

Patients may be treated with physician's choice SOC until the patient has progressive disease, patient experiences intolerable side effects, or patient discontinues study treatment.
