New drug test for children with EGFR-positive solid tumors
This study tests a new cancer drug called Becotatug Vedotin in children ages 2–18 with certain types of solid tumors (cancers that form in organs or tissues) that have an EGFR protein. The drug is designed to find tumors with this protein and attack cancer cells while sparing healthy ones.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic skin squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 285 recruiting metastatic skin 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 skin 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 skin 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.
