HEAD & NECK CANCER INTERNATIONAL GROUP

Welcome.

The Head and Neck Cancer International Group aims to promote and conduct high quality clinical trials in order to improve outcomes in patients with head and neck cancers. We achieve this through international collaboration, a strong sense of common purpose, shared expertise, and mutual respect among members.

The HNCIG consensus minimum database and its accompanying data dictionary is available for use for research purposes. While HNCIG provides this resource at no cost to academic investigators, industry-sponsored studies will be subject to a licensing fee. For details regarding access and fees, please contact secretariat@hncig.org.

Research Proposals

Research Proposals are invited via the application portal.

​

The online application form may be accessed here.

Applications will be initially assessed by the New Project Review Group, which meets monthly. If deemed suitable, the application will then be forwarded to the appropriate Sub-committee (e.g. Clinical Studies, Translational Studies, Young Investigator, Guidelines & Protocols) who have established protocols which will enable a more thorough examination of the proposal.

The applicant will be kept informed of the progress of the application.
