Brief Summary NRF2 activation, observed in up to 40% of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) tumors, plays a critical role in tumor progression, metastasis, and radiation therapy resistance. The investigators have recently discovered that pyrimethamine (PYR) and its analogs have an inhibitory effect on NRF2 activity in vitro and in mouse models via inhibition of dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR).
