Recruiting studies
- NCT04470024RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a vaccine plus immunotherapy for recurrent head and neck cancer
This early-phase (Phase 1b) study tests a vaccine designed to train the immune system to fight head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, plus standard immunotherapy. It may help some people by boosting the body’s anti-cancer immune response, but it mainly focuses on safety and finding the best approach.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT04842162RecruitingPhase 2
Near-infrared dye imaging to help remove all mouth/throat cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a special camera and dye during surgery to help surgeons confirm they removed all cancer at the edge of the removed tissue. If it works, it may lower the chance of cancer being left behind after oral cavity or oropharynx squamous cell cancer surgery.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT05358548RecruitingPhase 2
Alternating treatment for advanced lung and head-neck cancers
This Phase 2 study tests an approach that alternates treatments for advanced lung cancer or recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help by improving how well the cancer responds while managing side effects differently than standard back-to-back therapy.
Elizabeth, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06190275Recruiting
Immune cell therapy for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (GT201) combined with a PD-1 inhibitor for advanced head and neck cancer. It aims to see if your own immune cells, collected from your tumor, can be boosted to fight the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT06549946RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Ixovex-1 injection alone or with another drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental injection called Ixovex-1, either alone or with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced solid tumors that can be injected. It is for those who have run out of standard options and have tumors that are not too deep inside the body.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT06579248RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Cooling device to protect taste during radiation
This trial tests a special mouthpiece that cools the tongue during radiation therapy for advanced larynx cancer. It may help prevent taste loss caused by treatment.
Detroit, MichiganAges 18 years+ - NCT07397338RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
RAS inhibitors with ivonescimab for solid tumors
This trial tests new drugs called RAS(ON) inhibitors combined with ivonescimab for people with solid tumors that have a RAS mutation. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 223 recruiting metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma 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 metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma 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 metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma 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.
