Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT05969860RecruitingPhase 2
Home cancer treatment vs clinic treatment for advanced cancer
This Phase 2 trial compares giving certain standard cancer infusions at home versus in a clinic. It may help people avoid clinic visits while still receiving the same cancer treatment safely.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06295159RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before and after surgery for advanced melanoma
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy (anti-PD1) before and after surgery can help treat melanoma that has spread to nearby lymph nodes or skin. It is for people whose melanoma can be removed surgically, and who either haven't had systemic treatment before or whose melanoma has returned after prior immunotherapy or targeted therapy.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06697301RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
New drug with pembrolizumab for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new drug (EIK1001) combined with the standard immunotherapy pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if adding EIK1001 is more effective than placebo plus pembrolizumab.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06889766RecruitingPhase 1
NY-ESO-1 T cells for advanced melanoma and sarcoma
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy using your own immune cells (T cells) that have been modified to recognize a protein called NY-ESO-1, which is found on some melanoma and sarcoma tumors. It may help people whose cancer has progressed after standard treatments.
Lausanne, Canton of VaudAges 18 years+ - NCT07155317RecruitingPhase 2
Time-of-day immunotherapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests whether giving immunotherapy at a specific time of day can improve its effectiveness for advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery. It may help you if you have stage IV melanoma and have not had immunotherapy in the last year.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05098184RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study TIL treatment for advanced melanoma using harvested tumor cells
This early-phase trial tests GC101 TIL, a treatment made from your own melanoma tumor cells, for advanced melanoma. It may help the immune system better fight the cancer after standard treatments have already stopped working or if none are available.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06472661RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Focused ultrasound plus drug injection for melanoma before surgery
This trial tests a new combination approach for advanced melanoma that is planned for surgical removal. It uses focused ultrasound to heat the tumor, followed by an injection of an experimental immune-stimulating drug (polyICLC), while you continue your standard immunotherapy. The goal is to make the immune system attack the cancer more effectively.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07237100RecruitingPhase 2
Mirdametinib for advanced NF1-mutant melanoma
This trial tests an experimental oral drug called mirdametinib for people with advanced melanoma that has a specific gene change (NF1 mutation). To join, you must have already had immunotherapy, but not a MEK/ERK/RAF targeted drug before.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07686835RecruitingPhase 2
High-fiber diet to help immunotherapy work better in advanced melanoma
This trial tests if adding extra dietary fiber before and during immunotherapy can change gut bacteria to make the treatment more effective. It is for people with advanced melanoma who are about to start their first immunotherapy.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced melanoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 137 recruiting advanced melanoma 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 melanoma 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 melanoma 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.
