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+ - NCT07072728RecruitingPhase 2
Psilocybin therapy for anxiety in cancer patients
This trial tests whether psilocybin (a psychedelic drug given with talk therapy) can help people with cancer who have adjustment disorder—a condition where a cancer diagnosis causes severe anxiety or stress. It focuses on reducing anxiety and improving emotional well-being.
Abbotsford, VictoriaAges 18–80 - NCT07136181RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of NBM-BMX for advanced uveal melanoma that has spread
This trial tests a new oral drug, NBM-BMX, for people with metastatic uveal melanoma (melanoma of the eye that has spread). It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective. You may join if you have already tried some treatments, including tebentafusp if you are HLA-A*02:01 positive.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07138222Recruiting
Immune therapy and fertility in women and men with melanoma
This study looks at how immune checkpoint inhibitors (a type of immunotherapy) affect fertility and hormone health in premenopausal women and men with melanoma. It aims to understand and manage these side effects while you receive treatment.
Sydney, New South WalesAges 18–60 - NCT07144306Recruiting
AI-powered skin cancer detection study
This trial tests an artificial intelligence system designed to spot skin cancer early. You may be able to join if you are an adult with a suspicious skin spot and can give permission to participate.
LondonAges 1.5 years+ - NCT07266142Recruiting
Skin cancer research biobank study
This study collects data and samples from people with skin cancer and healthy volunteers to help research. It may be a way to contribute to future treatments.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18 years+ - NCT07318051Recruiting
Sample collection for cancer research study
This study collects blood and tumor tissue samples from patients with certain untreated cancers to help researchers develop and improve tests. You may be eligible if you have one of the listed cancer types and have not yet started treatment.
Austin, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07349303RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab Before Surgery for Stage IIb/c Melanoma

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for melanoma (skin cancer)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 148 recruiting melanoma (skin cancer) 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 melanoma (skin cancer) 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 melanoma (skin cancer) 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.
