Recruiting studies in Missouri
- 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.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05549297RecruitingPhase 3
Tebentafusp plus choice of treatment for advanced melanoma
This Phase 3 study compares tebentafusp treatment against the doctor’s choice of standard options in people with previously treated advanced melanoma. It aims to see which approach works better for controlling the cancer and improving outcomes.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05629546RecruitingPhase 1
Nivolumab and relatlimab with lab-made memory NK cells
This Phase 1 study tests a new form of immune cells (NK cells) along with nivolumab and relatlimab for advanced melanoma that has worsened after prior PD-1/PD-L1 treatments. It may help your body recognize and attack melanoma cells more strongly.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06112314RecruitingPhase 3
New immunotherapy combo for advanced melanoma (first treatment)
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (IMC-F106C) combined with standard treatments against the usual nivolumab-based therapy for people with advanced melanoma who have not been treated before. It's for people who carry a specific immune system marker (HLA-A*02:01) and are in fairly good health.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05655312RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Targeted radiation melanoma treatment with or without nivolumab
This early-stage study tests whether a targeted radioactive drug can shrink advanced melanoma, either alone or along with nivolumab (an immune-activating medicine). You may be eligible if your melanoma shows a specific target on scan imaging and has progressed despite prior melanoma treatments.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–90 - NCT05136196RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib plus nivolumab for advanced melanoma or head-neck cancer
This trial tests whether combining two immunotherapy medicines—cabozantinib and nivolumab—can shrink advanced melanoma or certain head-and-neck squamous cell cancers. It is mainly for people whose cancer has grown after prior PD-1 treatment.
Cape Girardeau, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06246916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new immunotherapy combo for advanced melanoma
This trial is testing a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (anti-LAG-3 and anti-PD-1 antibodies) to see if they work better than standard treatment for people with advanced melanoma that hasn't been treated before. It may be an option if you have not yet received any systemic therapy for your melanoma.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07115043RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD6750 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AZD6750 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT05267626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AU-007 antibody for hard-to-remove or spread skin and lung cancers
This trial tests AU-007, an antibody that targets the IL-2 pathway, in people with certain advanced skin (melanoma) or lung (NSCLC) cancers. It’s designed for cancers that have already progressed after prior immune and other treatments, to see if AU-007 can shrink tumors or control disease.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06910657RecruitingPhase 1
IDOV-Immune vaccine for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental virus-based treatment for people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard therapies. The treatment is designed to infect and destroy cancer cells while boosting the immune system.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
St Louis, MissouriAges Any age - NCT07327489Recruiting
Live tumor biopsy study to predict immunotherapy response
This trial studies how well immunotherapy might work by analyzing fresh tumor biopsies. It may help predict which treatments are best for your cancer.

What taking part in a advanced melanoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there advanced melanoma clinical trials in Missouri?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 13 recruiting advanced melanoma studies with a site in Missouri, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a advanced melanoma study in Missouri?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Missouri to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Missouri, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a advanced melanoma trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
