Recruiting studies
- NCT06999187RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DR-0202 for advanced solid tumors after multiple treatments
This trial tests a new drug, DR-0202, for people with certain advanced cancers that have not responded to at least two prior treatments. It may be an option if standard treatments are no longer working.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06747585RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
ALE.P02 for advanced squamous cell cancers with CLDN1
This trial tests a new drug called ALE.P02 for people with advanced squamous cell cancers (like lung, head and neck, esophagus, or skin cancer) that have a certain protein called CLDN1. The drug is given alone and aims to shrink or stop the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06700070RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Testing a microdose drug in solid tumors before surgery
This study tests a tiny amount of an experimental drug (PBA-0111) injected directly into tumors that will be surgically removed later. The goal is to see how the drug affects the tumor tissue, which may help guide future treatments for solid tumors like head and neck cancer, certain sarcomas, or triple-negative breast cancer.
Shreveport, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06645808RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET imaging study for various solid tumors
This study uses a special PET scan to see if a new imaging agent can help find and monitor certain solid tumors. It is for people with colon, rectal, sarcoma, breast, lung, head and neck, esophageal, stomach, pancreas, bladder cancers, or glioblastoma who have had standard treatment before surgery.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT06639191RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Study of a new drug for cancers expressing CD44v6
This trial tests a new radioactive drug called [177Lu]Lu-AKIR001 for patients with certain advanced cancers (like thyroid, head and neck, lung, vulvar, or cervical cancer) that have a specific protein called CD44v6 on their surface. The goal is to see if this treatment can help when standard options have stopped working.
Stockholm, Stockholm CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06515990RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
DM005 for Advanced Solid Tumors
This study tests a new drug called DM005 for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, stomach, colon, liver, pancreas, or head and neck cancer) that have not responded to or can't tolerate standard treatments. The goal is to see if DM005 is safe and how well it works.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT05107674RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for advanced cancers that have limited options
This Phase 1 study tests NX-1607 in adults with advanced cancers that are hard to treat with standard care. It focuses on safety and early signs of how well the drug may work in specific cancer types.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05757817Recruiting
New flap surgery for mouth or throat cancer reconstruction
This trial studies whether a new surgical reconstruction method can improve outcomes for people with oral cavity or oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (a type of head and neck cancer). The goal is to rebuild the area using a tissue flap while reducing problems where the tissue is taken from.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT06150664RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CTX-8371 for advanced cancers no longer helped by standard therapy
This trial tests a new drug called CTX-8371 for people with advanced cancers (melanoma, head and neck, lung, triple-negative breast, or Hodgkin lymphoma) that have stopped responding to standard treatments, especially immunotherapy. It is a first-in-human study, meaning doctors are learning if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Margate, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06084481RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new intravenous drug called ABBV-400 in people with certain advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can slow or stop tumor growth and to check for side effects.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05983432RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BL-B01D1 for advanced lung and other solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called BL-B01D1 for people with several types of advanced solid tumors, especially non-small cell lung cancer and breast cancer. It's designed for those whose cancer has continued to grow after standard treatments.
Beverly Hills, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05944237RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Early trial for advanced cancers using HTL0039732
This is a Phase 1/2 study testing how well HTL0039732 works and is tolerated in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. It may help by offering a new treatment option and learning which cancer types and body markers respond best.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT05910827RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of a HER3 antibody with cetuximab and possibly docetaxel
This Phase 1/2 trial tests whether an antibody that targets HER3 (with cetuximab, and possibly docetaxel) can help treat advanced squamous cell cancers that have already been treated or cannot use standard options. It mainly looks at safety first, and also whether the treatment can shrink tumors.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT05877599RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new treatment for advanced cancers with a specific gene change
This trial tests a new type of therapy (NT-175) for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change. It might help if your tumor has the TP53 R175H mutation and you have the HLA-A*02:01 immune marker.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05208762RecruitingPhase 1
PD-L1 antibody drug study for advanced lung and head/neck cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a new experimental drug (PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V) in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or can’t use it. It is designed to see how the drug works and how safe it is, with a focus on tumors that have PD-L1 seen on prior lab testing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT04389632RecruitingPhase 1
Sigvotatug vedotin for advanced solid tumors that spread
This early-stage study tests a drug called sigvotatug vedotin in people with advanced solid cancers that cannot be removed or have spread. It aims to see how well the treatment works and what side effects it causes.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04198766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New OX40 immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (INBRX-106) alone or with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help the immune system fight cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for head and neck (hnscc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 210 recruiting head and neck (hnscc) 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 head and neck (hnscc) 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 head and neck (hnscc) 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.
