Abstract
This year particularly phase II studies were presented at the 2016 ASCO Annual Meeting, in which new drugs (monoclonal antibodies, small molecules) were investigated in patients with recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (R/M-HNSCC). Notably, there was a great number of studies investigating carcinoma of the nasopharynx. The studies presented in this article summarize the different therapeutic concepts in the treatment of R/M-HNSCC and represent the variety of therapeutic approaches in the recurrent and metastatic setting.
