  • Overview

    While key clinical trials inform our management philosophy for patients with recurrent/metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (R/M SCCHN), the paucity of predictive markers, limited guidance to treatment sequencing, and inherent therapeutic toxicity provide challenges for both clinicians and patients. How can we best stratify our patients to ensure the most optimal outcomes? Join Drs. Ezra Cohen and Petr Szturz as they offer cogent answers to the difficult questions you face in your daily medical practice.
