What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Overall Survival (OS)

    OS is defined as time from the date of randomization to the date of death due to any cause.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  2. Objective Response Rate (ORR) Using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) Version 1.1 as Assessed by Blinded Independent Central Review (BICR)

    ORR is defined as the percentage of randomized participants achieving a confirmed best overall response (BOR) of partial response (PR) or complete response (CR) by BICR using RECIST version 1.1 .

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

Secondary outcomes (12)
  1. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) Using RECIST Version 1.1, as Assessed by BICR

    PFS is defined as the time from randomization until the date of objective disease progression or death (due to any cause), whichever comes first, based on BICR assessment using RECIST v1.1, regardless of treatment discontinuation or start of subsequent anticancer therapy.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  2. Duration of Response (DOR) As Assessed by BICR

    DOR as assessed by BICR is defined as the time from the date of first documented response (CR or PR) until the date of documented progression or death, whichever comes first, for participants who have PR or CR as best response.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  3. ORR as Assessed by Investigator

    ORR as assessed by the investigator is defined as the percentage of randomized participants achieving CR or PR, as defined by investigator assessment using RECIST v1.1 criteria.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  4. Number of Participants with Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs)

    TEAE is defined as any new or worsening adverse event (AE) occurring at or after the initial administration of study treatment through the day of last dose plus 30 days or prior to the start of subsequent anticancer therapy, whichever is earlier, or any follow-up AE with onset date and time beyond 30 days after the last dose of study treatment but prior to the start of subsequent therapy or any AE that is considered treatment-related regardless of the start date of the event.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  5. Number of Participants with Laboratory Abnormalities

    Blood samples will be collected to determine the laboratory (serum chemistry and hematology) abnormalities.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  6. Percentage of Participants with Improved or Stable Symptoms Compared to Baseline as Measured by the European Organisation for Research and Treatment of Cancer Quality of Life Questionnaire Head and Neck Module 43 (EORTC QLQ-HN43) Symptom Scale Score

    EORTC QLQ-HN43, is a self-administered, 43-item questionnaire measuring the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of participants with head and neck cancer. EORTC QLQ-HN43 includes 19 scales (anxiety, body image, coughing, dry mouth and sticky saliva, neurological problems, opening mouth, pain in the mouth, social contact, problems with senses, shoulder problems, skin problems, swelling in the neck, social eating, speech, swallowing, sexuality, problems with teeth, weight loss, and problems with wound healing). Responses to items are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Higher scores indicate worse health outcomes.

    Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  7. Percentage of Participants with Improved or Stable Symptoms Compared to Baseline as Measured by EORTC QLQ-Core (C) 30 Symptom Scale Score

    EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent." Higher scores indicate greater functioning, better global health status, or more severe symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  8. Change from Baseline in Functioning HRQoL, as Measured by Functioning Scales of the EORTC QLQ-C30

    EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), a global health status / quality of life scale, and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent." Higher scores indicate greater functioning, better global health status, or more severe symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  9. Change from Baseline in Overall HRQoL, as Measured by Global Health Scales of the EORTC QLQ-C30

    EORTC QLQ-C30, is a self-administered, 30-item questionnaire measuring the HRQoL of participants with cancer. EORTC QLQ-C30 includes 5 functional scales (physical, role, cognitive, emotional, and social), 3 symptom scales (fatigue, pain, and nausea and vomiting), a global health status / quality of life scale, and 6 single items (dyspnea, insomnia, appetite loss, constipation, diarrhea, and financial difficulties). Responses to items 1-28 are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much". Two global health status items are rated on a 7-point numeric rating scale from 1 "Very Poor" to 7 "Excellent." Higher scores indicate greater functioning, better global health status, or more severe symptoms.

    Measured: Baseline, up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  10. Differences Between Treatment Groups (Arms A and B) for EORTC Quality of Life (QLG) Item Library-46 (IL-46) Tolerability Scale Scores

    EORTC IL46 is a single item used to measure the overall impact of treatment side effects. Responses are rated on a 4-point Likert response scale ranging from 1 "Not at all" to 4 "Very much." Higher score indicates more impact of treatment side-effects.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  11. Serum Concentration of Amivantamab

    Serum concentrations of amivantamab will be analyzed.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

  12. Number of Participants with Serum Anti-Amivantamab Antibodies

    Participants who are positive to serum anti-amivantamab antibodies will be reported.

    Measured: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing Amivantamab, Pembrolizumab and Carboplatin in people with Squamous Cell Carcinoma of Head and Neck, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 205 sites in 22 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 5 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 3 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 205 sites in United States, China, United Kingdom, France, Germany and 17 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Study Contact (844-434-4210, Participate-In-This-Study1@its.jnj.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Overall Survival (OS) (time frame: Up to approximately 3 years 7 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 3 Nov 2026.
