Recruiting studies
- NCT06239220RecruitingPhase 2
Combination immunotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of three immunotherapy drugs (PD-L1 t-haNK, NAI IL-15sa, and cetuximab) for people with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has spread or cannot be cured. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05287945RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Orellanine for kidney cancer patients on dialysis
This early-stage study tests orellanine to treat advanced kidney cancer that has spread (metastatic clear-cell or papillary type). It may help by shrinking or controlling cancer, and by seeing whether the treatment is safe and tolerable in people already on chronic dialysis.
Orange, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05157763RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Test ointment for small basal cell skin cancers
This Phase 1/2 trial tests EscharEx (an investigational treatment) to see if it is safe and works on a single small basal cell skin cancer on the trunk or upper arms. You might qualify if your cancer fits specific size and location rules and you have not had radiation to that spot.
Aventura, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07251413RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cemiplimab plus imiquimod and laser before surgery for basal cell carcinoma
This trial tests combining a skin cream (imiquimod), a laser treatment, and an immunotherapy drug (cemiplimab) before surgery for high-risk basal cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if this combination shrinks tumors enough to make surgery less disfiguring or damaging to nearby functions.
Barcelona, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07645690RecruitingEarly Phase 1
CD70 CAR-T Cell Therapy for Advanced Kidney Cancer
This early-stage trial tests a new type of cell therapy called CD70 CAR-T for advanced kidney cancer (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) that has spread or cannot be surgically removed. The therapy uses cells from your own immune system that are genetically modified to recognize and attack cancer cells.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06640725RecruitingPhase 2
TPEx chemo with maintenance immunotherapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy drugs (TPEx) followed by two immunotherapy drugs (avelumab and cetuximab) as a first treatment for head and neck cancer that has spread or come back. It is for people whose tumors show a protein called PD-L1 and who have not had chemotherapy for advanced disease before.
Vandœuvre-lès-NancyAges 18–74 - NCT07215988Recruiting
Studying insurance for skin cancer treatment
This study looks at how insurance covers immunotherapy given before surgery for certain skin cancers. It includes people with Merkel cell, mucosal melanoma, basal cell, or other rare skin cancers who are planning to have surgery.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07227350RecruitingPhase 2
L19IL2 and L19TNF for advanced basal cell carcinoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, L19IL2 and L19TNF, injected directly into advanced basal cell carcinoma tumors that cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink the tumors.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03521830RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and other immunotherapy for advanced basal cell skin cancer
This study tests how well the immunotherapy medicine nivolumab works—either by itself or combined with other immune-boosting drugs—for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma that can’t be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s also looking at what to do if the cancer grows again after an earlier immunotherapy.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03977571Recruiting
Surgery plus cancer drugs for kidney cancer that spread
This trial studies whether removing the kidney tumor with “deferred cytoreductive nephrectomy” (surgery at a later time) works best for people whose metastatic kidney cancer is already present. It compares a standard treatment approach using either immunotherapy (nivolumab/ipilimumab) or a targeted pill plus immunotherapy (TKI/IO), with planned surgery afterward.
Aarhus, Central Region of DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT07564232RecruitingPhase 1
LNK001 for Advanced Kidney Cancer After Prior Treatments
This Phase 1 trial tests a new cell therapy called LNK001 in patients with advanced clear-cell kidney cancer that has progressed despite prior immunotherapy and targeted drugs. The therapy is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells by targeting a protein called CAIX.
Houston, TexasAges 18–70 - NCT04333537RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Sentinel node biopsy versus standard neck surgery for early mouth cancer
This trial compares two ways of checking whether early oral cavity squamous cell cancer has spread to neck lymph nodes. It tests whether sentinel lymph node biopsy can find spread as well as standard neck dissection, while potentially reducing more extensive surgery for some people.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04429542RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an EGFR-targeting drug for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety of BCA101 (an EGFR-targeting treatment) alone or combined with pembrolizumab. It may help people with certain EGFR-driven advanced cancers, depending on the tumor type, prior treatments, and required biopsy testing.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04510597RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy plus surgery versus immunotherapy alone for kidney cancer
This study tests whether adding surgery to remove the kidney improves outcomes compared with continuing immunotherapy without surgery. It is for people with metastatic kidney cancer whose disease has not worsened after initial immunotherapy.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT04900623RecruitingPhase 2
Using HPV blood test to guide treatment for HPV throat cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a “risk-adapted” treatment plan for HPV-related throat cancer, using an HPV DNA blood test to help decide how treatment is done. If your baseline blood test shows detectable HPV DNA, the study may help tailor therapy to your risk and potentially improve outcomes while limiting unnecessary treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 22 years+ - NCT04974671RecruitingPhase 2
SBRT radiation for limited cancer growth on immunotherapy
This trial tests whether targeted external-beam radiation (SBRT) can control a small number of progressing kidney cancer spots while you continue immune checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy. It may help shrink or stop those specific “oligoprogressive” lesions and prolong benefit from your current immunotherapy.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT05047094Recruiting
DaRT radiation plus pembrolizumab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether a targeted internal radiation treatment (DaRT) combined with pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) can shrink recurrent or metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer that cannot be fully removed with surgery. It may help by making cancer more visible to the immune system while delivering localized radiation to a tumor area.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT05086692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Beta-only IL-2 therapy for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 1/2 study tests a beta-only version of IL-2, an immune-stimulating treatment, to shrink or control advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It’s mainly designed to check safety and to see if it can help patients by improving tumor response.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05092373RecruitingPhase 1
Tumor treating device plus targeted or immune drugs for advanced cancers
This Phase 1 study tests whether a tumor treating fields device works better when added to standard cancer drugs. It may help people with advanced solid tumors in the chest or belly, especially when standard treatment didn’t work or can’t be tolerated.
Houston, TexasAges 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+ - NCT05463757Recruiting
Oral drugs for advanced or multiple basal cell skin cancer
This study registers people in the Netherlands who have certain types of basal cell skin cancer and take an oral hedgehog-blocking medicine. It may help doctors understand how well these tablets work and how patients do in real life.
Nijmegen, GelderlandAges Any age - NCT05473156RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AP203 for advanced solid tumors that grew despite treatment
This early-phase study tests AP203 (an investigational treatment) to see if it is safe and to look for signs it can shrink or control certain advanced cancers. The study includes a dose-finding part for many solid tumors, and a second part focused on specific lung and head/neck cancers that previously received PD-1/PD-L1 therapy.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT05726370RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab plus chemo before surgery for recurrent head and neck cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether giving pembrolizumab (an immune therapy) plus chemotherapy before curative surgery can improve outcomes for people with resectable, recurrent head and neck squamous cell cancer. It also studies how these treatments affect the tumor and immune response using required tissue and blood samples.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05797415Recruiting
Check sentinel lymph node biopsy for several eye skin cancers
This trial studies whether a “sentinel lymph node biopsy” can better detect cancer spread in people with specific cancers of the eye surface and nearby tissues. It may help doctors find the right next treatment by learning whether lymph nodes are involved.
