This is a single center, open-label, non-randomized, pre-operative window of opportunity study for patients with resectable squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity who are considered suitable for curative-intent surgical resection, with pre-operative Mocetinostat and Durvalumab.~This study will involve treatment with Mocetinostat and Durvalumab, tests and procedures done for safety and the collection of blood samples for biomarker research. Tissue samples (fresh biopsy or archival tissue) will also be collected for biomarker research and evaluation.
This is a Phase 1 Window of Opportunity study to evaluate the pharmacodynamic and immune effects of pre-operative therapy with Mocetinostat and Durvalumab on patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.
