Recruiting studies in Missouri
- NCT06385080RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of amivantamab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a drug called amivantamab, either alone or with other treatments, for people with head and neck cancer that has spread or come back. The goal is to see if the drug can help shrink tumors or control the cancer.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT06992427RecruitingPhase 3
Gabapentin to prevent opioid use for mouth pain during cancer treatment
This trial tests if taking gabapentin during chemoradiation for head and neck cancer can reduce the need for strong painkillers like opioids. It may help manage mouth pain caused by treatment.
Cape Girardeau, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT07109726RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing TER-2013 for advanced tumors with AKT/PI3K/PTEN changes
This trial tests a new drug called TER-2013, alone or combined with another drug (fulvestrant), for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific genetic changes in the AKT/PI3K/PTEN pathway. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
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+ - NCT02734537RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation with or without cisplatin after head and neck surgery
This trial studies whether adding cisplatin (a chemotherapy medicine) to radiation therapy helps people with stage III–IVA squamous cell cancer of the head and neck after they’ve had surgery. It’s meant to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
Ballwin, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04852328RecruitingPhase 2
Testing CUE-101 schedules before treatment for HPV16 throat cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies different timing “schedules” of CUE-101 given before surgery or before chemoradiation for HPV16-positive oropharyngeal throat cancer. The goal is to see if CUE-101 can help the body respond better and potentially improve outcomes.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT03493425RecruitingPhase 2
Nasal or sinus cancer treated with or without chemotherapy first
This trial studies whether giving chemotherapy before surgery and radiation (instead of doing surgery and radiation first) improves outcomes for people with certain nasal or paranasal sinus cancers that can be removed with an operation. You may qualify if your tumor needs more advanced removal, such as part of the eye area or the skull base.

What taking part in a head and neck squamous cell cancer 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.
