Recruiting studies
- NCT07323641RecruitingPhase 2
Telisotuzumab Vedotin and Osimertinib for Advanced Lung Cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs—telisotuzumab vedotin and osimertinib—for people with a specific type of advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has stopped responding to osimertinib alone. The goal is to see if adding the second drug can help control the cancer.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05493566RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Low-dose IL-2 plus pembrolizumab for stage IV lung cancer
This early-phase study tests whether low-dose IL-2 combined with pembrolizumab can help treat stage IV non-small cell lung cancer that has not had prior advanced treatment. It may be an option if your tumor has certain immune-marker findings (PD-L1) and you meet safety requirements.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06799065RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

This trial tests a new daily pill that targets a protein helping cancer cells divide. It may stop tumors from growing in people with advanced or metastatic cancer that has returned or stopped responding to standard treatments, including some types of ovarian, lung, and other solid tumors.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18 years+ - NCT04780568RecruitingPhase 1
First-line osimertinib plus tegavivint for EGFR-mutant lung cancer
This Phase 1 study tests osimertinib combined with tegavivint as the first treatment for metastatic (stage IV) non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with certain EGFR gene mutations. It aims to find the safest dose and see how well the combination can control cancer and side effects.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT05817903RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab with or without axitinib after prior nivolumab
This Phase 2 trial studies whether adding axitinib to nivolumab (or giving nivolumab alone) can better control advanced clear-cell kidney cancer after standard initial treatment with nivolumab plus ipilimumab. It may help by extending response or slowing tumor growth while improving how long treatment works.
BresciaAges 18 years+ - NCT06306846RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation and immunotherapy before surgery for head and neck cancer
This study tests giving a short course of targeted radiation (SBRT) along with immunotherapy and a targeted drug before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–70 - NCT07812805RecruitingPhase 1
New targeted treatment with imaging for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new experimental treatment (SKL35501) that uses a special imaging agent (SKL35502) to find and target a marker called NTSR1 found on some advanced cancers. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and can help people whose cancer has stopped responding to standard treatments.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07405645Recruiting
Focused Ultrasound for Cancer Pain in the Head or Neck
This trial tests a non-invasive focused ultrasound treatment aimed at a specific brain area to reduce severe cancer-related pain in the head, neck, or upper chest. It may help if your pain hasn't responded to standard medications.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–85 - NCT06225427RecruitingPhase 1
Gilteritinib for advanced ALK-positive lung cancer
This trial tests a drug called gilteritinib for people with a specific genetic type of lung cancer (ALK-positive) that has spread and has been treated before. You may be eligible if you have already tried at least one targeted therapy, and your cancer is still growing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06021626RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CRD3874-SI for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called CRD3874-SI for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and can shrink tumors.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT04261192Recruiting
Grow lab models of head and neck cancer to test treatments
This study collects tissue from people with newly diagnosed head and neck squamous cell cancer and grows “mini tumor models” in the lab. The goal is to see how these models respond to new therapies, which may help guide more effective treatment choices in the future.
CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT07314216RecruitingPhase 2
Firmonertinib plus radiation for stage III lung cancer with rare EGFR mutations
This trial tests whether combining the targeted pill firmonertinib with radiation therapy can help people with stage III non-small cell lung cancer that has certain rare EGFR mutations. It is for those whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery.
Changsha, HunanAges 18 years+ - NCT07050043RecruitingPhase 3
Low-dose nivolumab plus chemo vs standard chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests whether a lower dose of the immunotherapy drug nivolumab combined with standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has not been treated before.
Alor Star, KedahAges 18 years+ - NCT04165070RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Stage IV lung cancer trial using pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy
This Phase 1/2 study tests pembrolizumab (an immune-based cancer treatment) either alone or with chemotherapy in people newly diagnosed with stage IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It looks at how well the treatments work and whether they are safe, especially in people who haven’t had treatment yet for metastatic disease.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06902389RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Multi-target immune cell therapy for advanced liver cancer
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (multi-target Hi-TCR-T cells) for people with advanced liver cancer that hasn't responded to earlier treatments. The therapy targets several markers on your cancer cells to try to attack the tumor more effectively.
Shanghai, Yangpu DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT05937906RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Chemo and immunotherapy plus short targeted drug for lung cancer
This Phase 1/2 trial tests how safe and how well a combination of chemo and immunotherapy works when followed by a short course of a targeted “MEK” inhibitor as first treatment for metastatic lung adenocarcinoma with PD-L1 below 50%. It may help some people control cancer better, while also providing more information about side effects and the best way to use these medicines together.
Dijon, BurgundyAges 18 years+ - NCT07754812RecruitingPhase 4
Oral paclitaxel with immunotherapy and SBRT before surgery for older adults with lung cancer
This trial tests a new way to treat non-small cell lung cancer in people aged 70 or older. You will receive oral chemotherapy (paclitaxel) with immunotherapy and focused radiation (SBRT) before surgery, hoping to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for oral squamous cell carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 321 recruiting oral 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 oral 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 oral 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.
