Vaginal DHEA for better vaginal health after pelvic radiation
This study tests whether a vaginal insert of DHEA (a hormone) can help with vaginal health problems caused by pelvic radiation for anal, rectal, or gynecologic cancers. It is for women who are already postmenopausal and are about to start radiation.
Columbus, OhioAges 50 years+ - NCT05952947RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug for HPV18-positive solid tumors with a specific immune marker
This Phase 1 trial tests HRYZ-T101 injection for people whose solid cancer is HPV18-positive and who have the HLA-DRB1*0901 immune marker. It is meant for people whose cancer has returned or spread and who have few or no effective treatment options.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07217171RecruitingPhase 1
Study of EVOLVE104 for advanced bladder and squamous cell cancers
This trial tests an experimental drug called EVOLVE104 for people with advanced bladder cancer or certain types of squamous cell cancers. It aims to see if the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT03061435Recruiting
Screening for anal cancer after high-grade vulvar changes
This trial checks whether anal cancer screening is useful for women age 40 and older who previously had high-grade vulvar pre-cancer (VIN 2/3) or vulvar cancer. It may help find serious problems earlier in people at higher risk.
Toronto, OntarioAges 40 years+ - NCT06628570Recruiting
Screening methods for anal cancer in high-risk adults
This study is looking at ways to screen for anal cancer in people who are at higher risk, such as those with weakened immune systems or a history of abnormal cells in the lower genital tract. It aims to find better methods for early detection.
Miami, FloridaAges 30–80 - NCT06640283RecruitingPhase 2
Circulating tumor DNA monitoring for cervical and anal cancer
This trial uses a blood test to track tumor DNA in patients with HPV-related cervical or anal cancer. It aims to see if this test can detect early signs of recurrence after radiation therapy, helping guide follow-up care.
São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT04221893Recruiting
Radiation therapy for metastatic gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to your current immunotherapy can help control cancer that has spread in the digestive system. It aims to improve symptoms and possibly slow the cancer's growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 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+ - NCT04429542RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an EGFR-targeting drug for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety of BCA101 (an EGFR-targeting treatment) alone or combined with pembrolizumab. It may help people with certain EGFR-driven advanced cancers, depending on the tumor type, prior treatments, and required biopsy testing.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07775209Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Shorter radiation and chemo for anal cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy given with chemotherapy for people with high-risk anal cancer. The goal is to see if the shorter treatment is just as effective but causes fewer side effects and is more convenient.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT04462042Recruiting
Proton vs photon radiation for anal canal cancer
This study compares two types of radiation—protons versus photons—for anal canal squamous cell carcinoma. It may help find which option delivers treatment more effectively or with fewer side effects.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT05639972RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HPV cancer trial using immune T cells made for you
This Phase 1/2 trial tests a one-time infusion of special immune T cells made to recognize your HPV16 tumor. It may help your body attack the cancer, while researchers closely monitor safety and early effectiveness.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07455942Recruiting
Understanding why anal cancer diagnosis is delayed
This study looks at the reasons and delays in diagnosing anal cancer. It aims to help doctors detect it earlier in the future.
AngersAges 18 years+ - NCT04857528Recruiting
Testing HPV DNA in anal and cervical tumors
This trial checks whether tumor samples contain HPV DNA (genetic material from the HPV virus). The goal is to improve detection in anal and cervical cancers, especially in patients planning standard radiation treatment.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05838391Recruiting
Targeted radiation approach for anal cancer
This trial tests an adaptive, image-guided radiation plan for anal canal squamous-type cancers. It may help deliver effective treatment while adjusting the radiation based on how your body and tumor respond.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07425054RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation with or without immunotherapy for anal cancer

Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05686226RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests immune cells targeting HPV-16 cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests an immune-cell treatment (E7 TCR T cells) designed to attack cancers caused by HPV type 16. It may help people whose HPV-16+ cancer has come back or not responded to standard treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06949800RecruitingPhase 2
Probiotics to treat anal precancer (PROTECT trial)
This study tests if a probiotic called EXE-346 can help clear anal high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSIL), a precancerous condition, in people with HIV who are on effective antiretroviral therapy. If you have anal HSIL that wasn't fully removed by biopsy, you may be able to join.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for anal carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 31 recruiting anal 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 anal 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 anal 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.
