Exclusion Criteria
Medical Conditions
1 Histologically or cytologically confirmed head and neck cancer of any other primary
anatomic location in the head and neck not specified in the inclusion criteria including
participants with squamous cell carcinoma of unknown primary or non-squamous
histologies (eg, nasopharynx or salivary gland)
2 Prior cetuximab therapy (unless it was administered in curative LA setting with
radiotherapy and no disease progression for at least 6 months following the last cetuximab
dose)
3 Any unresolved toxicity NCI CTCAE ≥ Grade 2 from previous anticancer therapy with
the exception of alopecia, vitiligo, and the laboratory values defined in the inclusion
criteria.
− Participants with irreversible toxicity not reasonably expected to be exacerbated by
treatment with monalizumab and cetuximab may be included only after consultation
with the Medical Monitor.
4 Has carcinomatous meningitis and/or untreated central nervous system metastases
identified either on the baseline brain imaging (see Appendix F) obtained during the
screening period or identified prior to signing the ICF. Participants with a history of brain
metastases or with suspected brain metastases at screening must have an MRI (preferred)
or CT each preferably with iv contrast of the brain prior to study entry. Participants whose
brain metastases have been treated may participate provided they show radiographic
stability (defined as 2 brain images, both of which are obtained after treatment to the
brain metastases. These imaging scans should both be obtained at least 4 weeks apart and
show no evidence of intracranial progression). In addition, any neurologic symptoms that
developed either as a result of the brain metastases or their treatment must have resolved
or be stable either, without the use of steroids, or are stable on a steroid dose of
≤ 10 mg/day of prednisone or its equivalent and anticonvulsants for at least 14 days prior
to the start of treatment. Brain metastases will not be recorded as RECIST 1.1 TL at
baseline.
5 Major surgical procedure (as defined by the investigator) within 28 days prior to the first
dose of study intervention. Note: Local surgery of isolated lesions for palliative intent is
acceptable.
6 History of allogeneic organ transplantation
7 History of allergic reactions or hypersensitivity attributed to compounds of similar
chemical or biologic composition to cetuximab and monalizumab or any of their
excipients
8 History of active primary immunodeficiency
9 Active or prior documented autoimmune or inflammatory disorders (including
inflammatory bowel disease [eg, colitis or Crohn’s disease], diverticulitis [with the
exception of diverticulosis], systemic lupus erythematosus, Sarcoidosis syndrome, or
Wegener syndrome [granulomatosis with polyangiitis, Graves’ disease, rheumatoid
arthritis, hypophysitis, uveitis, etc]). The following are exceptions to this criterion:
− Participants with vitiligo or alopecia
− Participants with hypothyroidism (eg, following Hashimoto syndrome) stable on
hormone replacement
− Any chronic skin condition that does not require systemic therapy
− Participants without active disease in the last 5 years may be included but only after
consultation with the Medical Monitor
− Participants with celiac disease controlled by diet alone
10 Active infection including tuberculosis (clinical evaluation that includes clinical history,
physical examination and radiographic findings, and tuberculosis testing in line with local
practice), hepatitis B (known positive HBV surface antigen [HBsAg] result), hepatitis C
(HCV), or human immunodeficiency virus (positive HIV 1/2 antibodies). Participants
with a past or resolved HBV infection (defined as the presence of hepatitis B core
antibody [anti-HBc] and absence of HBsAg) are eligible. Participants positive for HCV
antibody are eligible only if polymerase chain reaction is negative for HCV RNA.
11 Uncontrolled intercurrent illness, including but not limited to, ongoing or active infection,
symptomatic congestive heart failure, uncontrolled hypertension, unstable angina
pectoris, uncontrolled cardiac arrhythmia, active interstitial lung disease, serious chronic
gastrointestinal conditions associated with diarrhea, or psychiatric illness/social situations
that would limit compliance with study requirement, substantially increase risk of
incurring AEs or compromise the ability of the participant to give written informed
consent
12 History of another primary malignancy except for:
− Malignancy treated with curative intent and with no known active disease ≥ 5 years
before the first dose of study treatment and of low potential risk for recurrence
− Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna without evidence
of disease
− Adequately treated carcinoma in situ without evidence of disease
− Participants with a history of prostate cancer (tumor/node/metastasis stage) of
Stage ≤ T2cN0M0 without biochemical recurrence or progression and who in the
opinion of the investigator are not deemed to require active intervention
13 Mean QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 500 ms
calculated from 3 ECGs (within 15 minutes at 5 minutes apart)
Prior/Concomitant Therapy
14 Any concurrent anticancer treatment. Concurrent use of hormonal therapy for
non-cancer-related conditions (eg, hormone replacement therapy) is allowed.
15 Receipt of the last dose of anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, immunotherapy, endocrine
therapy, targeted therapy, biologic therapy, tumor embolization, mAbs, or investigational
agents) or radiotherapy with curative intent (to more than 30% of the bone marrow or
with a wide field of radiation) ≤ 28 days prior to the first dose of study intervention. If
sufficient wash-out time has not occurred due to the schedule or PK properties of an
anticancer agent, a longer wash-out period will be required, as agreed by the Sponsor and
the investigator.
16 Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first
dose of study intervention. The following are exceptions to this criterion (see also
Table 6):
− Intranasal, inhaled, topical steroids, or local steroid injections (eg, intra-articular
injection)
− Systemic corticosteroids at physiologic doses not to exceed 10 mg/day of prednisone
or its equivalent
− Steroids as premedication for hypersensitivity reactions (eg, CT scan premedication)
17 Receipt of live attenuated vaccine within 30 days prior to the first dose of study
intervention.
Note: Participants, if enrolled, should not receive live vaccine whilst receiving study
intervention and up to 30 days after the last dose of study intervention.
Prior/Concurrent Clinical Study Experience

last 28 days prior to randomization or concurrent enrollment in another clinical study,
unless it is an observational (non-interventional) clinical study or during the follow-up
period of an interventional study
19 Prior treatment with monalizumab
Other Exclusions
20 Involvement in the planning and/or conduct of the study (applies to both Sponsor staff
