Recruiting studies
- NCT04198766RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New OX40 immunotherapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immunotherapy drug (INBRX-106) alone or with Keytruda (pembrolizumab) for adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug can help the immune system fight cancer.

A study of CLSP-1025 for adults with certain solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CLSP-1025 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in the p53 gene (R175H). The drug targets this change to help fight the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 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+ - NCT04673981Recruiting
Follow-up study for oral and throat cancer pain
This study looks at nerve-related symptoms and pain in the mouth and throat in people who have been treated for oral or oropharynx cancer. You may be able to take part if you’re within 1 to 5 years after treatment and can follow study steps.

Electrical stimulation to reduce dry mouth after head-neck radiation
This trial tests a non-invasive, acupuncture-like electrical stimulation treatment (ALTENS) to help reduce dry mouth after radiation for head and neck cancers. You may qualify if you have bothersome dry mouth and had significant head-neck radiation, with no signs of active cancer and if you can come for treatments over 12 weeks.

Testing early blood or tissue signals to track head and neck treatment
This study looks for early “biomarkers” (signals in blood or tissue) to see how well head and neck cancer treatments are working over time. It may help doctors adjust treatment sooner based on those early signals.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT07218003Enrolling by invitationPhase 1
Study of RNDO-564 alone or with pembrolizumab for bladder cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug, RNDO-564, either by itself or combined with another drug (pembrolizumab), for people with advanced bladder cancer or other solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06682793RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of A2B395 therapy for solid tumors with EGFR and HLA loss
This trial tests a new cell therapy called A2B395 for cancers that have EGFR, a protein on the cell surface, and have lost a specific marker called HLA-A*02. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells to target and kill these cancer cells. This may help patients with colorectal, lung, head and neck, breast, kidney, or other solid tumors that are no longer responding to standard treatments.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06172478RecruitingPhase 2
HER3-DXd for advanced solid tumors after prior treatment
This trial tests a new targeted drug called HER3-DXd for people with several types of advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is an antibody-drug conjugate, designed to deliver chemotherapy directly to cancer cells that have a protein called HER3 on their surface.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07108517Recruiting
Post-traumatic growth program for cancer survivors in Greece
This trial tests a guided program to help people with breast, colorectal, or head and neck cancer find personal growth after finishing chemotherapy. It is for those who have completed their planned treatment within the last 5 years and are not currently in other psychological care.
ThessalonikiAges 18–80 - NCT05995821Recruiting
Blood and tissue collection for head and neck cancers
This study collects blood and tissue samples from people with cancers of the head, neck, or upper airway to learn how the immune system responds to these cancers. The goal is to find better ways to treat these diseases in the future.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05817617Recruiting
Vitamin D use in head and neck cancer
This study looks at how taking vitamin D may affect side effects (toxicity) and outcomes in people with locally advanced head and neck squamous cell cancer. It may help improve comfort during treatment and track whether vitamin D changes prognosis.
Barletta, BATAges 18 years+ - NCT06030011Recruiting
Using a digital tool for head and neck cancer patients
This trial uses a digital assessment tool to track symptoms and side effects in patients with head and neck cancer who are getting radiation therapy (with or without chemotherapy). The goal is to see if it helps improve care in both rural and urban areas.
Kansas City, KansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06708754Recruiting
Light therapy for radiation side effects in head and neck cancer
This study tests if a special light therapy (photobiomodulation) can help reduce tissue stiffness and swelling caused by radiation for head and neck cancer. It may be an option if you finished radiation in the last 3 years and have moderate to severe scarring or swelling.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07264036Recruiting
Nasal Speech After Head and Neck Cancer Treatment Study
This study is for people who have had treatment for head or neck cancer and now have a nasal-sounding voice. It tests a procedure to help improve speech by adding a small amount of filler material to the back of the throat.
Charlottesville, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05787834Recruiting
Home breathing muscle training to lessen cancer treatment side effects
This trial tests whether a home program that strengthens your breathing muscles can reduce side effects while you’re receiving cancer treatment. It may help you breathe more comfortably and tolerate treatment better.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07110142Recruiting
Tongue strength exercises after tongue cancer surgery
This study tests a tongue strengthening exercise program for people who have had partial tongue removal and reconstruction. The goal is to see if these exercises can help you regain better tongue function and speech after surgery.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06103669Recruiting
Local treatment for limited cancer spread
This trial tests whether using local treatments (like targeted radiation or ablation) on a few new spots of cancer can help people whose cancer is otherwise stable on their current treatment. It enrolls people with various solid tumors, such as breast, gynecologic, head & neck, sarcoma, or other types.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06082180RecruitingPhase 3
Preventive neck lymph node removal in low-risk thyroid cancer
This trial is for people with low-risk papillary thyroid cancer. It compares two surgical approaches: one that removes just the thyroid gland, and another that also removes some lymph nodes in the center of the neck as a preventive measure. The goal is to see if removing these lymph nodes helps prevent the cancer from coming back.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT07358806RecruitingPhase 1
Study of OCT-598 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called OCT-598, alone or with chemotherapy, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. It aims to see if the combination is safe and effective.

Study of a new antibody for advanced tumors with FGFR1 protein
This trial tests an experimental antibody, OM-RCA-01, in people with advanced solid tumors that have high levels of a protein called FGFR1. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective for those who have already tried other treatments.
Kazan'Ages 18 years+ - NCT05726370RecruitingPhase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for neck cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 526 recruiting neck 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 neck 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 neck 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.
