Hubei, WuhanAges 18–75 - NCT06823479RecruitingPhase 2
Ultra-short immunotherapy before surgery for skin cancer
This trial tests a very short course of immunotherapy (nivolumab) before standard surgery for patients with certain types of advanced or hard-to-treat skin cancer (cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma). The goal is to see if this approach can reduce the need for extensive or disfiguring surgery.
Maastricht, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07007364RecruitingPhase 2
Testing low-dose radiation with immunotherapy and chemo for early oral cancer
This trial tests if combining a low dose of radiation with an immunotherapy drug (adebrelimab) and a chemotherapy drug (albumin-bound paclitaxel) before surgery can help treat early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma. It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT07010692RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Treating skin cancers with laser and ointment
This trial tests a combination of fractional laser and tirbanibulin ointment to treat basal or squamous cell skin cancer that hasn't been treated before. It may offer a less invasive option for people with these common skin cancers.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06998342RecruitingPhase 2
Mohs surgery plus short radiation for head and neck skin cancer
This trial studies a combination of Mohs surgery and a short course of radiation therapy for people with squamous cell skin cancer of the head and neck. The goal is to see if this approach is effective with fewer side effects.
Burlington, VermontAges 18 years+ - NCT06997094RecruitingPhase 1
Decitabine plus standard therapy for HPV-negative head and neck cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug decitabine to standard treatment (surgery and possibly radiation) can help people with a type of head and neck cancer not caused by HPV. You would receive decitabine before surgery, and then continue with standard care after.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06446726RecruitingPhase 2

- 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.
