Recruiting studies
- NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab at home vs. clinic for cancer treatment
This study compares giving the immunotherapy drug nivolumab as a shot under the skin at home versus in the clinic. It is for people with certain cancers who are already taking or starting nivolumab.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2

Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT05910827RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a HER3 antibody with cetuximab and possibly docetaxel
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether an antibody that targets HER3 (with cetuximab, and possibly docetaxel) can help treat advanced squamous cell cancers that have already been treated or cannot use standard options. It mainly looks at safety first, and also whether the treatment can shrink tumors.

Olanzapine to help cancer-related weight and appetite loss
This Phase 2 trial tests whether olanzapine can help people with advanced cancer who are losing weight and not eating enough. It looks for improvements in appetite and weight while you receive your first-line palliative cancer treatment.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT07863141RecruitingPhase 2
Maintenance therapy after first-line chemoimmunotherapy for advanced esophageal cancer
This study compares two maintenance treatments after initial chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if adding anlotinib, a targeted drug that blocks blood vessel growth to tumors, to a PD-1 inhibitor is more effective than the PD-1 inhibitor alone.

KC1036 vs. chemo for advanced esophageal cancer
This study compares a new drug, KC1036, to standard chemotherapy options for people with advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer that has progressed after immunotherapy and at least one chemo. It aims to see if KC1036 works better or has fewer side effects.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07751055RecruitingPhase 2
Chemotherapy and radiation with immunotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding two immunotherapy drugs to standard chemotherapy and radiation before surgery can help shrink esophageal cancer and improve outcomes. It is for people with a certain type of esophageal cancer that can be removed with surgery.

Study of KC1036 with immunotherapy and chemo for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called KC1036 combined with standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy for people with advanced esophageal cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT07283939Recruiting
Testing a tool to adjust chemo doses and reduce treatment delays
This trial tests a computer algorithm called PAGODA that helps doctors adjust chemotherapy doses for people with gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to prevent unplanned treatment delays while keeping the treatment effective.

Study of PF-08046876 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new medicine, PF-08046876, for people with advanced cancers of the bladder, lung, head and neck, esophagus, or pancreas. It aims to see if the drug is safe and works against these cancers.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06120803RecruitingPhase 2
Esomeprazole for preventing radiation-induced esophagitis
This study tests whether a common heartburn medicine (esomeprazole) can help prevent or reduce painful swallowing caused by radiation for lung cancer. If you have stage 3 non-small cell lung cancer and are getting chemo and chest radiation, you may be able to join.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07554456RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New Drug Combination for Advanced Esophageal Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BL-B01D1 combined with an immune therapy (tislelizumab) and sometimes chemotherapy against standard chemotherapy for esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this new combination works better and is safer than current treatment.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07549100Recruiting
Tislelizumab plus chemotherapy for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether combining tislelizumab (an immunotherapy drug) with chemotherapy can shrink advanced esophageal cancer before surgery. The goal is to help patients whose tumors are too large or invasive to operate on initially.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06644781RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Ifinatamab Deruxtecan for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a new drug, Ifinatamab Deruxtecan, for people with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has worsened after standard treatments. It aims to see if it can help shrink or slow the cancer.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06363825RecruitingPhase 2
New combination therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of treatments for advanced liver cancer: a targeted therapy (apatinib), an immunotherapy (camrelizumab), and two local treatments (TAE and HAIC). It may be an option if you have a high tumor burden or a tumor thrombus in the portal vein and haven't had systemic treatment before.
FuzhouAges 18–80 - NCT06595108Recruiting
Targeted therapy and radiation for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (atezolizumab), targeted therapy (bevacizumab), and targeted radiation for advanced liver cancer that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this approach helps control the cancer.

Check whether PD-1 treatment helps esophagus cancer before surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding a PD-1 medicine (sintilimab) to standard chemo-radiation before surgery improves outcomes for locally advanced esophageal squamous cell cancer. It may help by strengthening the immune response while shrinking the tumor before an operation.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced esophageal carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 201 recruiting advanced esophageal carcinoma studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a advanced esophageal carcinoma trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced esophageal carcinoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
