Recruiting studies in Virginia
- NCT07182149RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called NRM-823 for people with several types of advanced cancer that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06769698RecruitingPhase 2
Testing fianlimab with cemiplimab for head and neck cancer
This study compares a new combination of two drugs (fianlimab and cemiplimab) against cemiplimab alone for people with head and neck cancer that has returned or spread. It aims to see if the combination works better.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07227168RecruitingPhase 1
Study of STRO-004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called STRO-004 for people with advanced solid tumors (cancers that have spread or come back). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib, which may slow or shrink various types of advanced cancer. It is given together with other cancer treatments, and the study is looking at many different cancers including kidney, prostate, bladder, lung, liver, and more.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04892173RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation plus a tumor injection, with or without cetuximab
This trial studies whether adding a special drug given directly into a head-and-neck tumor during radiation can improve outcomes. It also looks at whether cetuximab (an antibody medicine) should be added for people who cannot or should not have certain standard chemotherapy.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 60 years+ - NCT03526835RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MCLA-158 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new experimental drug called MCLA-158 (petosemtamab) for people with advanced solid tumors, especially head and neck cancer or colorectal cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments. The study aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Roanoke, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06788990RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Study of ficerafusp alfa with pembrolizumab for advanced head and neck cancer
This study tests a new drug called ficerafusp alfa (BCA101) combined with the immunotherapy pembrolizumab for people with advanced head and neck cancer that has not been treated before. The goal is to see if adding ficerafusp alfa helps shrink tumors better than pembrolizumab alone.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04370587RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Injecting a cancer medicine into tumors plus pembrolizumab
This Phase 1/2 study tests a medicine injected directly into a tumor, alone or with pembrolizumab (an immune-therapy drug given through a vein). It is for people with advanced or metastatic solid cancers that have grown despite standard treatments, aiming to improve tumor control.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06332755RecruitingPhase 1
Study of LB-LR1109 alone and with atezolizumab for cancer
This trial tests a new drug called LB-LR1109, alone or with atezolizumab, for adults with certain advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer. It's for people whose cancer has worsened after standard treatments or who cannot have those treatments.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07030257RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of CP-383 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called CP-383 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, especially for certain cancers with genetic changes.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT07085091RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ALX2004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ALX2004, for people with certain advanced cancers (head and neck, lung, esophagus, or colorectal) that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.

What taking part in a hnscc 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.

Common questions
- Are there hnscc clinical trials in Virginia?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 11 recruiting hnscc studies with a site in Virginia, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a hnscc study in Virginia?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in Virginia to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Virginia, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a hnscc trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
