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

Objectives

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

Experimental Arm:

Patients may receive repeated ASP-1929 PIT interventions for up to a maximum of 8 cycles
within 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. Repeat
ASP-1929 treatment cycles will be administered no less than 4 weeks from the previous
ASP-1929 infusion.

Control Arm:

Patients may be treated with physician's choice standard of care until the patient has
progressive disease, patient experiences intolerable side effects, discontinues study
treatment, or chooses to withdraw.

  2. Have failed or progressed on or after at least 2 lines of therapy for squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck.
  3. Failed or progressed following prior platinum chemotherapy
  4. Have completed prior curative radiation therapy for treatment of their head and neck region
