Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06843889RecruitingPhase 2
Toripalimab with chemoradiation before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug toripalimab to standard chemoradiation before surgery helps people with a type of esophageal cancer. It is for patients whose cancer has not spread to other organs and who have not had treatment before.
Guangzhou, Baiyun DistrictAges 18–75 - NCT06509568RecruitingPhase 2
Chemoradiation plus immunotherapy before surgery for esophageal cancer
This trial tests giving a combination of chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and an immunotherapy drug before surgery for a type of esophageal cancer (squamous cell). The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients whose cancer can be surgically removed.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06353906RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo plus immunotherapy for advanced penile cancer
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs (carboplatin and paclitaxel) plus the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for penile cancer that has spread to nearby lymph nodes. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink or control the cancer before or after surgery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT07751055RecruitingPhase 2

Testing toripalimab after lung cancer surgery using ctDNA
This study tests whether a drug called toripalimab, given after lung cancer surgery, can help keep the cancer from coming back in people with early-stage non-small cell lung cancer. It uses a blood test (ctDNA) to look for leftover cancer cells and decide who might benefit most.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for squamous cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 679 recruiting squamous cell lung cancer 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 lung cancer 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 lung cancer 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.
