PET-CT scan study for head and neck cancer before radiotherapy
This study uses PET-CT scans (a type of imaging that highlights active cancer cells) in people with a specific kind of head and neck cancer. The goal is to see how well the first scan identifies tumors that should be checked again with a second scan, to better guide care with radiotherapy.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT02734537RecruitingPhase 2
Radiation with or without cisplatin after head and neck surgery
This trial studies whether adding cisplatin (a chemotherapy medicine) to radiation therapy helps people with stage III–IVA squamous cell cancer of the head and neck after they’ve had surgery. It’s meant to lower the risk of the cancer coming back.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT03215719RecruitingPhase 2
De-escalating treatment for HPV-positive throat cancer with low-risk signals

HPV throat cancer trial skipping radiation with blood tests
This study tests whether patients with a specific type of HPV-positive throat cancer can safely skip radiation after surgery by using blood tests to monitor for cancer recurrence. The goal is to reduce side effects while keeping patients cancer-free.
Charleston, South CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07408063RecruitingPhase 2
Study of new drug for advanced head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new drug (GSK5764227) for head and neck cancer that has spread or come back. It looks at your tumor's biomarkers to understand why some people respond to treatment. You may need to have had certain prior treatments depending on which group you join.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT07445048RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation, targeted therapy, and immunotherapy for high-risk head and neck cancer
This trial tests if adding a targeted drug (nimotuzumab) and an immunotherapy (benmelstobart) after surgery and radiation can help prevent cancer from returning in patients with high-risk head and neck cancer who cannot take cisplatin chemotherapy.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07455032RecruitingPhase 1
Neoadjuvant therapy combo for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (CADI-05 and pembrolizumab) before surgery for people with a certain type of head and neck cancer that hasn't spread. The goal is to see if this treatment can help shrink the tumor before it is removed.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07465276RecruitingPhase 2
Two immunotherapies before surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs (ficerafusp alfa and pembrolizumab) given before surgery for advanced head and neck cancer that can be removed. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.

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.
