Recruiting studies in Colorado
- NCT04511013RecruitingPhase 2
Trial for BRAF-mutant melanoma spread to the brain
This Phase 2 study tests whether a 3-drug plan (encorafenib + binimetinib + nivolumab) works better than ipilimumab + nivolumab for melanoma that has spread to the brain. If you qualify, you’ll get either treatment and have frequent brain scans to track how well it controls the tumors.
Boulder, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - 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.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT05727904RecruitingPhase 3
New immunotherapy for advanced melanoma, with or without lifileucel
This trial studies whether adding lifileucel (a patient-specific immune-cell treatment) to pembrolizumab works better than pembrolizumab alone. It’s for people with untreated advanced melanoma that cannot be removed by surgery.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–70 - NCT05136196RecruitingPhase 2
Cabozantinib plus nivolumab for advanced melanoma or head-neck cancer
This trial tests whether combining two immunotherapy medicines—cabozantinib and nivolumab—can shrink advanced melanoma or certain head-and-neck squamous cell cancers. It is mainly for people whose cancer has grown after prior PD-1 treatment.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06581406RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
RP2 with nivolumab for untreated uveal melanoma
This clinical trial tests a new treatment called RP2 (a virus that attacks cancer cells) combined with nivolumab (an immunotherapy drug) for people with metastatic uveal melanoma who have never had immunotherapy before. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Aurora, ColoradoAges Any age - NCT06940739RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
IOV-3001 and lifileucel for advanced melanoma
This trial tests a new combination treatment, IOV-3001 and lifileucel, for people with advanced melanoma that has not responded to standard immunotherapy and cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if this cellular therapy is safe and effective.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18–70 - NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06743126RecruitingPhase 3
IMA203 vs standard treatment for advanced skin cancer
This trial tests a new cell therapy called IMA203 against standard treatments for people with advanced melanoma (a type of skin cancer) that has spread or can't be removed. It may be an option if you have already tried certain treatments and your cancer has a specific cell marker (HLA-A*02:01).
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT03947385RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
First drug test for metastatic uveal melanoma with specific gene changes
This Phase 1/2 trial studies IDE196 in adults with metastatic uveal melanoma that has certain gene mutations or fusions. It’s mainly testing safety and correct dosing, and may help shrink tumors in patients matched to the tumor’s genetic changes.
Denver, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06070012RecruitingPhase 2
Tebentafusp for untreated metastatic uveal melanoma
This trial tests a new drug called tebentafusp for people with uveal melanoma that has spread to other parts of the body and who have not yet received any treatment for the metastatic disease. It requires a specific genetic marker (HLA-A*0201) and focuses on whether the drug can shrink or slow the growth of tumors.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT06246916RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new immunotherapy combo for advanced melanoma
This trial is testing a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (anti-LAG-3 and anti-PD-1 antibodies) to see if they work better than standard treatment for people with advanced melanoma that hasn't been treated before. It may be an option if you have not yet received any systemic therapy for your melanoma.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 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.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.

What taking part in a metastatic melanoma 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 metastatic melanoma clinical trials in Colorado?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 13 recruiting metastatic melanoma studies with a site in Colorado, 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 metastatic melanoma study in Colorado?
- 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 Colorado to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Colorado, 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 metastatic melanoma 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.
