This Phase 1 study tests a customized vaccine made from “neo-antigens,” which are new targets found in your tumor. It aims to help your immune system fight certain advanced cancers that have not responded well to prior treatment.
Seattle, WashingtonAges 18 years+ - NCT07230613RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy before surgery for localized melanoma
This trial tests if giving two immunotherapy drugs (nivolumab and ipilimumab) before surgery can improve outcomes for patients with stage III melanoma that can be removed. It is for people who have not had certain treatments recently or whose melanoma is not in the eye.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT03819296RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant to treat cancer immunotherapy bowel side effects
This early-phase study tests whether changing your gut bacteria with a fecal transplant can improve diarrhea or colitis caused by cancer immunotherapy. It may help people whose symptoms have not fully settled with standard treatments like steroids and other immune-blocking medicines.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03842943RecruitingPhase 2
Before-surgery immunotherapy for stage III melanoma
This trial tests immunotherapy given before surgery to help shrink or control stage III melanoma that has spread to nearby areas (lymph nodes/region). If it works, it may improve outcomes after the melanoma is removed.
Louisville, KentuckyAges 18 years+ - NCT04697576RecruitingPhase 1
Flu vaccine injected into melanoma tumors for stage I-IV
This trial tests whether injecting a flu vaccine directly into melanoma tumors helps shrink them. It is for people with stage I to IV melanoma who have at least one tumor that can be injected.
Columbus, OhioAges 18–99 - NCT05039801RecruitingPhase 1
Study drug IACS-6274 tested for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1 study tests the experimental drug IACS-6274, sometimes with bevacizumab and paclitaxel, in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It aims to find the safest dose and to learn whether the treatment can shrink or control cancer for certain tumor mutation types.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05251389RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fecal microbiome transplant after anti-PD-1 melanoma not working
This trial tests whether a fecal microbiome transplant (FMT) can help your body respond better to anti-PD-1 immunotherapy in advanced skin melanoma. It is for people whose melanoma has progressed despite anti-PD-1 treatment.
AmsterdamAges 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+ - NCT05940311Recruiting
Blood test for melanoma with BRAF V600E mutation
This trial studies a very sensitive blood test to detect melanoma-related genetic changes in people with BRAF V600E. It may help track the disease more closely and guide care in advanced or high-risk situations.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT05970497RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
KB707 trial for advanced solid tumors after other treatments
This early-stage trial tests KB707 in people with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded well to standard treatments. If you qualify, you may receive KB707 to see how well it can shrink tumors or control the disease.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06075524Recruiting
How PD-1 therapy affects immune cells in advanced cancers
This study looks at how your immune system responds to PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy (drugs like Keytruda or Opdivo) for advanced melanoma, lung cancer, and similar cancers. It involves regular blood tests to track your immune cells, which may help doctors understand why these treatments work for some people better than others.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT06204991RecruitingPhase 1
T-cell therapy for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new treatment called ADP-TILIL7 for people with advanced melanoma. It uses your own immune cells (T-cells) that are taken from a tumor, multiplied in a lab, and then given back to you to fight the cancer. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and works better than standard options.
HerlevAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT06284590RecruitingPhase 2
Injected immunotherapy plus pembrolizumab for resistant melanoma
This study tests a new approach for advanced melanoma that is not responding to standard immunotherapy (like pembrolizumab). It combines a targeted injection directly into the tumor (L19IL2, L19TNF, or both) with pembrolizumab. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help the immune system fight the cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 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+ - NCT06643286Recruiting
Melanoma survivorship care plan app study
This trial tests a mobile app that provides a personalized survivorship care plan for people recently diagnosed with early-stage melanoma. It aims to help patients manage their follow-up care and improve quality of life.
Dordrecht, South HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06784778Recruiting
Testing a blood test to predict immunotherapy response
This study is testing a new blood test called IOpener®-Melanoma to see if it can predict which patients with advanced melanoma will respond well to immunotherapy. The goal is to better match treatments to people who will benefit most.
Tübingen, Baden-WurttembergAges 18 years+ - NCT06794775RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy before surgery for stage III melanoma
This trial is for people with stage III melanoma that can be surgically removed. It compares one immunotherapy drug to a combination of two, to see which works better before surgery.
GothenburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07148245Recruiting
Study of immunotherapy side effects in melanoma
This study looks at how people with advanced melanoma (a serious skin cancer) feel during treatment with immunotherapy. It aims to better understand the symptoms they experience, so doctors can help manage them.
