Recruiting studies
- NCT06163820RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Bevacizumab and immunotherapy with radiation for melanoma brain metastases
This trial tests a combination of a drug that stops blood vessel growth (bevacizumab), immunotherapy, and focused radiation to treat melanoma that has spread to the brain and is causing symptoms. The goal is to see if this approach shrinks tumors and improves outcomes.
Melbourne, VictoriaAges 18 years+ - NCT06627036RecruitingPhase 4
Dermoscopy vs standard marking for skin cancer removal
This trial compares two ways of marking skin before removing a non-melanoma skin cancer: using a special magnifying tool called a dermoscope versus the standard method. The goal is to see which method helps remove the cancer completely the first time.
HullAges 18 years+ - NCT07330323Recruiting
Custom skin cancer aftercare report study
This trial tests a personalized aftercare report for people with low-risk skin cancer. It aims to see if this report can improve follow-up care.
Leuven, Vlaams-BrabantAges 18–80 - NCT05562791RecruitingPhase 1
Testing PSMA PET/CT scans for metastatic bladder or skin cancer
This Phase 1 study tests how well a PSMA PET/CT scan can find cancer spots in people with metastatic bladder cancer (urothelial cancer) or metastatic melanoma. It may help doctors better see where cancer is and guide next steps.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT03860883Recruiting
Comparing wider versus narrower surgery margins for stage II melanoma
This trial studies whether removing a slightly wider strip of skin around a melanoma improves outcomes compared with a narrower strip. It also uses a lymph node staging procedure to check spread and helps doctors fine-tune surgery for stage II melanoma.
Mobile, AlabamaAges 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+ - NCT04038619RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant for immune-therapy diarrhea or bowel inflammation
This early-phase study tests whether stool/fecal microbiota transplant (a fecal transplant) can help people who develop significant diarrhea or colitis after immune-checkpoint therapy. It aims to reduce bowel inflammation and improve symptoms, while carefully checking for infections.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06630611RecruitingPhase 2
A new immune cell therapy for melanoma, lung, and cervical cancer
This trial tests a new way to boost your immune cells after they are collected from your tumor and grown in a lab. Instead of high-dose IL-2, you would get a modified version called ANV419, which may have fewer side effects.
BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06956690RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing HMBD-501 for HER3-positive advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, HMBD-501, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific protein called HER3. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and if it can help shrink or control the cancer.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07681791Recruiting
Sun safety program for teens and parents
This trial tests a digital program to help teens and parents learn better sun safety habits together. It involves using Facebook daily to get tips and support, which may reduce skin cancer risk.
New Brunswick, New JerseyAges 13 years+ - NCT05746897RecruitingPhase 1
First-in-human test of an anti-PVRIG drug for advanced cancers
This early-phase study tests NM1F (an anti-PVRIG antibody) in people with advanced solid tumors to see if it’s safe and whether it may work. It also includes pembrolizumab (a PD-1 “checkpoint” medicine), aiming to boost the immune system against the cancer.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06889610RecruitingPhase 2
Ablation plus drug therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests combining a liver tumor ablation procedure with systemic drugs for people with advanced colorectal, breast, or melanoma cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can help when standard treatments have stopped working.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06305962RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Radioactive drug for advanced PD-L1 positive solid tumors
This trial tests a radioactive medicine (177Lu-anti-PD-L1 sdAb) that delivers radiation to cancer cells with PD-L1 protein, which is found on some solid tumors. It is for people whose cancer has spread or come back after standard treatments.
Kingswood, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT07177937RecruitingPhase 1
Study of DXC014 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests DXC014, a new drug, in people with advanced solid tumors, including prostate cancer. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06444815RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VET3-TGI for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental treatment called VET3-TGI, which is injected directly into tumors. It is for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried other treatments and are looking for new options.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05704647RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab plus relatlimab for melanoma in the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether nivolumab plus relatlimab can shrink or control melanoma that has spread to the brain. It may help by boosting the immune system to attack the cancer, including melanoma in brain areas that can’t be treated with prior focused radiation.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05108298Recruiting
Study to improve cancer survey reporting for young adults
This study focuses on collecting better self-reported information (from questionnaires) from young adults with cancer. It may help improve how future cancer trials understand symptoms and quality-of-life needs.
Fairbanks, AlaskaAges 18–39 - NCT05267626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
AU-007 antibody for hard-to-remove or spread skin and lung cancers
This trial tests AU-007, an antibody that targets the IL-2 pathway, in people with certain advanced skin (melanoma) or lung (NSCLC) cancers. It’s designed for cancers that have already progressed after prior immune and other treatments, to see if AU-007 can shrink tumors or control disease.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07310758RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Using ultrasound contrast to detect sentinel nodes in cancer
This trial tests whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound can help find sentinel lymph nodes (the first nodes cancer may spread to) in people with melanoma, breast, or head and neck cancer. It may reduce the need for a radioactive tracer injection.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT07130032RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy combo for advanced lung cancer or melanoma
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy drugs (anti-PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies) plus bevacizumab and a low-dose chemotherapy called cyclophosphamide for people with advanced lung cancer or melanoma who have already been on immunotherapy and their cancer has progressed.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for melanoma (skin cancer)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 146 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.
