Recruiting studies
- NCT06532279RecruitingPhase 2
Testing BMX-001 with chemoradiation for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding BMX-001 (a drug that may protect healthy tissues) to standard chemoradiation can reduce side effects and improve outcomes for people with head and neck cancer. It's a randomized study, so you would have a 50/50 chance of getting BMX-001 or a placebo.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06384924Recruiting
Testing a light-based tool for skin cancer detection
This trial is testing a special light-based technique (Raman spectroscopy) to see if it can help doctors better identify skin cancers. It is for people with either basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma who are scheduled to receive brachytherapy treatment.
Stony Brook, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06356272Recruiting
Oropharynx cancer biomarker study
This study looks at certain markers (called p16 and HPV) in tumor samples to better understand oropharynx cancer. It may help doctors learn more about the disease and guide future treatments.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05561634RecruitingPhase 2
Test targeted medicine with radiation for advanced skin cancer
This Phase 2 study looks at using a medication that blocks the “Sonic Hedgehog” pathway together with radiotherapy to reduce future problems from locally advanced basal cell carcinoma (BCC). It’s for people whose cancer responded completely to the first Sonic Hedgehog pathway inhibitor treatment and where doctors can confirm that response with a tissue test.
LilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06211335RecruitingPhase 1
Losartan, pembrolizumab and radiation for advanced head & neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three treatments—a blood pressure drug (losartan), an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab), and targeted radiation—for people with head and neck cancer that has come back, spread to a few spots, or is not responding to other treatments. The goal is to see if this mix can shrink tumors and help patients who have few options left.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06161545RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (pembrolizumab and N-803) with or without special immune cells (PD-L1 t-haNK cells) before surgery for head and neck cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the cancer or improve the outcome after surgery.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06112522RecruitingPhase 2
Tirbanubulin for superficial basal cell carcinoma
This trial tests the safety and effectiveness of tirbanubulin gel to treat a type of skin cancer called superficial basal cell carcinoma (sBCC). It is for people who have not been treated for this cancer before and have a small spot (less than 1.5 cm) that is not on the face or scalp.
Nice, Alpes-maritimesAges 18 years+ - NCT06047379RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing NEO212 for brain tumors and metastases
This trial tests a new drug called NEO212 for people with certain brain tumors (like astrocytoma or glioblastoma) or cancer that has spread to the brain from other parts of the body. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can help shrink or control the tumors.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05978193RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation plus chemo-immunotherapy for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding radiation to a combination of chemotherapy and immunotherapy can help people with stage IV esophageal cancer that has spread. It is for those who haven't had any prior treatment for their cancer.
ShanghaiAges 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+ - NCT05955924RecruitingPhase 3
Nicotinamide to prevent skin cancer after organ transplant
This trial tests nicotinamide (a vitamin-like medicine) to help prevent new keratinocyte skin cancers in people who have had a kidney, liver, heart, or lung transplant. It may lower the chance of developing new skin tumors while you continue your usual transplant anti-rejection medicines.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT05896839RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy with prednisone and sirolimus for transplant skin cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding immunotherapy (nivolumab and ipilimumab) to prednisone and sirolimus can control advanced skin cancers in people with kidney transplants. It aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is for transplant recipients.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05859074RecruitingPhase 1
Testing MQ710 injections alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests MQ710, a medicine given by injection into a reachable tumor, to see how well it can control advanced cancers. Some participants also receive pembrolizumab, an immunotherapy, to help the immune system fight the cancer.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT05381597RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Skin cream treatment for small early non-melanoma skin cancers
This study tests whether 5-fluorouracil and calcipotriene (medicines used on the skin) can treat certain small, early skin cancers or pre-cancers without surgery. It’s for specific types and locations of lesions and aims to see how well the treatment works and how safe it is.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05726370RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for recurrent head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus chemotherapy before curative surgery can improve outcomes for people with resectable, recurrent head and neck squamous cell cancer. It also studies how these treatments affect the tumor and immune response using required tissue and blood samples.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT04974671RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT radiation for limited cancer growth on immunotherapy
This trial tests whether targeted external-beam radiation (SBRT) can control a small number of progressing kidney cancer spots while you continue immune checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy. It may help shrink or stop those specific “oligoprogressive” lesions and prolong benefit from your current immunotherapy.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05651828RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Tested adaptive dosing of vismodegib for advanced skin cancer
This trial tests an adaptive (adjusted) dosing plan using vismodegib for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma. It may help control the cancer while balancing side effects, and your team will closely monitor how your tumors respond.

This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04900623RecruitingPhase 2
Using HPV blood test to guide treatment for HPV throat cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a “risk-adapted” treatment plan for HPV-related throat cancer, using an HPV DNA blood test to help decide how treatment is done. If your baseline blood test shows detectable HPV DNA, the study may help tailor therapy to your risk and potentially improve outcomes while limiting unnecessary treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT04510597RecruitingPhase 3

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for basal cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 318 recruiting basal cell 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 basal cell 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 basal cell 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.
