Study Summary

This phase I trial studies how well durvalumab with or without tremelimumab works in treating participants with stage II-IVA oropharyngeal squamous cell cancer. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as durvalumab and tremelimumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread.

Primary Outcome

Change will be defined as the ratio of the CD8+ lymphocytes density in the post-treatment surgical specimens over the CD8+ density in the baseline biopsy before treatment.
