Recruiting studies in North Carolina
- NCT04892173RecruitingPhase 3
Radiation plus a tumor injection, with or without cetuximab
This trial studies whether adding a special drug given directly into a head-and-neck tumor during radiation can improve outcomes. It also looks at whether cetuximab (an antibody medicine) should be added for people who cannot or should not have certain standard chemotherapy.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 60 years+ - NCT07227350RecruitingPhase 2
L19IL2 and L19TNF for advanced basal cell carcinoma
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, L19IL2 and L19TNF, injected directly into advanced basal cell carcinoma tumors that cannot be treated with surgery or radiation. The goal is to see if these drugs can shrink the tumors.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06418204Recruiting
Cannabis use among cancer patients in community clinics
This study looks at how cancer patients use cannabis (marijuana) and cannabis products to manage symptoms during chemotherapy or immunotherapy. The goal is to learn about the benefits and risks so doctors can better guide patients.
Albemarle, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06875310RecruitingPhase 3
Study of adagrasib plus pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial tests if adding the targeted drug adagrasib to standard immunotherapy and chemotherapy helps people with a specific KRAS G12C mutation in non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread. It is for people who have not had previous treatment for advanced disease.
Asheville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06119581RecruitingPhase 3
Oloromosib with Immunotherapy as First Treatment for KRAS G12C Lung Cancer
This trial tests a new targeted pill (olomorasib) combined with immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) and possibly chemotherapy for people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a KRAS G12C mutation and has not been treated before.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05498428RecruitingPhase 2
Amivantamab for advanced lung cancer with EGFR mutations
This Phase 2 study tests amivantamab (an antibody medicine) in people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has specific EGFR gene changes. It may help shrink tumors or control cancer when standard curative treatments aren’t possible.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05123482RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of an experimental drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, called AZD8205, alone or with other medicines, for people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05542407RecruitingPhase 1
ONC201 plus atezolizumab for endometrial cancer and obesity
This Phase 1 study tests ONC201 together with atezolizumab in people with metastatic or returning endometrial cancer, especially when obesity may be driving the cancer. It aims to find a safe dose and see whether the combination can slow the cancer’s growth.
Chapel Hill, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT07388524RecruitingPhase 3
Testing atezolizumab after surgery for early stage lung cancer
This trial tests if the immunotherapy drug atezolizumab can prevent early stage non-small cell lung cancer from coming back after surgery. It is for people whose tumors have high levels of a protein called PD-L1 (50% or more) and do not have certain gene changes (EGFR or ALK).
Pinehurst, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05642572RecruitingPhase 2
Test drug combinations for EGFR- and MET-changed lung cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests combinations of targeted medicines to treat advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has changes in both EGFR and MET genes. It is for people whose cancer continued to grow even after treatment with osimertinib, the most recent therapy.
Cary, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05281471RecruitingPhase 3
Tested drug for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer with bevacizumab
This Phase 3 trial tests a treatment made of an investigational gene-based drug plus standard “platinum” chemotherapy and bevacizumab, compared with standard chemotherapy and bevacizumab. It’s for ovarian/fallopian tube/primary peritoneal cancers that have not responded to platinum chemotherapy or came back quickly.
Winston-Salem, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06793215RecruitingPhase 3
Divarasib plus pembrolizumab for KRAS G12C lung cancer
This trial compares a new targeted drug (divarasib) combined with an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) versus standard chemotherapy plus immunotherapy for people with advanced lung cancer that has a specific KRAS G12C mutation. It aims to see if the new combination works better and is safe.
Pinehurst, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT04928846RecruitingPhase 3
Telisotuzumab vedotin vs docetaxel for advanced non-squamous lung cancer
This trial tests an investigational drug (telisotuzumab vedotin) against the standard chemotherapy docetaxel in people with a certain type of non-squamous lung cancer that has high levels of a protein called c-Met. It may offer a new treatment option for those whose cancer has progressed after initial therapy.
Hendersonville, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT06605404Recruiting
Pan-tumor study of a blood test after cancer surgery
This study is testing a new blood test that looks for leftover cancer cells after surgery. It is for people with different types of solid tumors who are planning to have surgery to cure their cancer. The goal is to see if the test can help guide future treatment decisions.
Charlotte, North CarolinaAges 18 years+ - NCT05987241RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Using a blood test to guide immunotherapy after bladder/kidney cancer surgery
This study tests whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can help guide the use of immunotherapy (nivolumab with or without relatlimab) after surgery for urothelial cancer. The goal is to see if starting immunotherapy based on the blood test results can prevent the cancer from coming back.

What taking part in a squamous cell carcinoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
