A study of sacituzumab govitecan for advanced esophageal cancer
This trial tests a drug called sacituzumab govitecan for people with advanced esophageal squamous cell carcinoma that has already been treated with chemotherapy and immunotherapy. The drug targets a protein called Trop-2 on cancer cells to try to stop tumor growth.
TaipeiAges 18 years+ - NCT06323460RecruitingPhase 2
Less Radiation for HPV Throat Cancer Guided by a Blood Test
This study tests a way to use less radiation for HPV-related throat cancer. Doctors will adjust your treatment based on a simple blood test that tracks cancer DNA, so you may get only the treatment you need.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06288191RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab and relatlimab before surgery for skin cancer
This trial tests if two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab and relatlimab, given before surgery can help shrink a type of skin cancer called cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma. It's for people whose cancer can be removed with surgery.
Wollstonecraft, New South WalesAges 18 years+ - NCT06006169RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drugs for head and neck cancer and other solid tumors
This trial tests two new drugs, BL-B01D1 and SI-B003, alone or together, for people with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma that has come back or spread. It may also include other solid tumors. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2

- 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.
