Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT03521830RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and other immunotherapy for advanced basal cell skin cancer
This study tests how well the immunotherapy medicine nivolumab works—either by itself or combined with other immune-boosting drugs—for people with advanced basal cell carcinoma that can’t be removed by surgery or has spread. It’s also looking at what to do if the cancer grows again after an earlier immunotherapy.

Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06422403RecruitingPhase 2
Study on giving immunotherapy less often for advanced cancer
This trial tests whether giving certain immunotherapy drugs less often than usual is safe and still works well for people with advanced stomach, liver, or lung cancer. It might mean fewer hospital visits while still controlling the cancer.
SingaporeAges 21–99 - NCT07087158RecruitingPhase 2
IBR854 plus pazopanib vs pazopanib for advanced kidney cancer
This trial tests a new combination therapy (IBR854 plus pazopanib) against pazopanib alone for people with advanced clear cell kidney cancer who haven't had prior treatment. It aims to see if the combination works better.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT06476964Recruiting
Studying skin growths to better tell them apart
This study looks at different types of skin growths (actinic keratosis or cSCC) to understand their unique features. It may help doctors better tell apart harmless from dangerous skin spots by studying cells and inflammation.
BordeauxAges 18 years+ - NCT05544136RecruitingPhase 2
Study of lower radiation and chemo for head and neck cancer
This study tests whether giving lower doses of radiation and chemotherapy is safe and effective for people with certain head and neck cancers. It aims to reduce side effects while keeping the treatment successful.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06464068RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo for first-line advanced extrapulmonary small cell cancer
This trial tests a new combination of durvalumab (an immunotherapy) plus standard chemotherapy for people with advanced small cell carcinoma that started outside the lung and has not been treated before. The goal is to see if this combo works better than chemo alone.
Reggio EmiliaAges 18 years+ - NCT07002346RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy and bevacizumab for advanced ovarian clear cell cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (QL1706) and a targeted therapy (bevacizumab) for women with newly diagnosed advanced ovarian clear cell carcinoma. The goal is to see if this combination works better than standard treatment after surgery.

Using tumor DNA tests to time treatment for HPV throat cancer
This study checks a blood test that looks for HPV tumor DNA to help doctors decide when to start routine treatment after surgery. It may help some people avoid starting treatment too early or too late based on how the test changes after the operation.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06005818RecruitingPhase 2
MRD-guided therapy for kidney cancer after surgery
This trial tests whether personalized monitoring of cancer DNA in your blood (MRD) can guide treatment decisions after kidney cancer surgery. If MRD is detected, you may receive extra immunotherapy to reduce the risk of cancer returning.

Study of Retifanlimab and Ruxolitinib for Certain Cancers
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, retifanlimab and ruxolitinib, for people with advanced kidney cancer (clear cell renal cell carcinoma) or lung cancer (non-small cell lung carcinoma) whose cancer has grown after previous treatment with a type of immunotherapy called PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. The goal is to see if this combination can help when standard treatments are no longer working.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges Any age - NCT07746258Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for squamous cell carcinoma of the skin?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 431 recruiting squamous cell carcinoma of the skin 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 squamous cell carcinoma of the skin 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 squamous cell carcinoma of the skin 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.
