Recruiting studies
- NCT05515315RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo then chemoradiation for esophageal cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether adding tislelizumab (an immunotherapy drug) to chemotherapy before a combined course of chemotherapy and radiation can better treat locally advanced, non-surgable esophageal squamous cell cancer. It’s for adults who cannot have surgery and may help shrink the cancer and improve control of the disease.

Study of AK112 plus chemo for advanced lung cancer
This trial tests a new drug, AK112, combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer that has spread to the lining of the lung (malignant pleural effusion). The goal is to see if this combination helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06494943RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of IBI110 and Sintilimab with Chemo for Head and Neck Cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (IBI110 and sintilimab) with chemotherapy before surgery for people with advanced head and neck cancer that can be removed surgically. The goal is to see if this approach helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07317609RecruitingPhase 1
Immunotherapy plus chemo before endoscopic resection for esophageal cancer
This trial tests a treatment plan that combines immunotherapy with chemotherapy before possible endoscopic surgery. It is for people with a specific type of esophageal cancer that has not been treated before and is either potentially removable or not suitable for standard surgery.

ChengduAges 18–70 - NCT04916990Recruiting
Care program for rural adults with several lung and head cancers
This study looks at how to improve care for adults with certain cancers who live in rural areas and may face access problems. It mainly focuses on people receiving cancer treatment at specific Colorado-area hospitals, and who are uninsured or underinsured.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–99 - NCT06753136Recruiting
Electrochemotherapy for internal organ tumors
This trial tests a treatment called electrochemotherapy for tumors in internal organs (like the liver or pancreas) when standard treatments are no longer possible. It uses a drug called bleomycin plus electric pulses to target cancer cells.
PadovaAges 18–99 - NCT05049837Recruiting
Study lung cancer samples to understand relapse resistance
This trial looks at information and tissue from people with stage I to stage IIIA non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who have surgery, sometimes with chemotherapy before surgery. Researchers want to understand why cancers come back (resistance) and how to better target treatments later.
Houston, TexasAges 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.

Safety of TJ101 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called TJ101 for people with advanced solid tumors who have tried standard treatments or have no standard options. It aims to see if the drug is safe and how well it works.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04853342RecruitingPhase 3
Furmonertinib after lung tumor removal for EGFR-mutated lung cancer
This trial tests whether furmonertinib, an oral targeted medicine, can improve outcomes after your lung tumor has been completely removed. It also checks for side effects and compares results against placebo in people with specific EGFR gene mutations.
Suzhou, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT06699212RecruitingPhase 3
Light-activated therapy with immunotherapy for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new light-activated treatment (ASP-1929) combined with an immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) as a first treatment for head and neck cancer that has come back in the same area but has not spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if this combination works better than standard treatment alone.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05283226RecruitingPhase 2
Oral anti-cancer pill plus paclitaxel after immunotherapy failure
This Phase 2 trial studies an oral study drug (NRC-2694-A) given with paclitaxel to treat head and neck squamous cell cancer that has come back or spread after immunotherapy. It tests whether this combination is safer and works better than expected for people whose cancer progressed on immune checkpoint inhibitors.
Fullerton, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06645808RecruitingEarly Phase 1
PET imaging study for various solid tumors
This study uses a special PET scan to see if a new imaging agent can help find and monitor certain solid tumors. It is for people with colon, rectal, sarcoma, breast, lung, head and neck, esophageal, stomach, pancreas, bladder cancers, or glioblastoma who have had standard treatment before surgery.
Groningen, Provincie GroningenAges 18 years+ - NCT07766226Recruiting
Online support group for head and neck cancer patients
This study tests whether an online support group can help people with head and neck cancer feel better during and after their radiation treatment. You would participate in a shared online community and complete questionnaires about your well-being.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT07264075RecruitingPhase 3
Ivonescimab with or without ligufalimab vs pembrolizumab for head and neck cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy combination (ivonescimab alone or with ligufalimab) against the standard immunotherapy pembrolizumab (Keytruda) for people with head and neck cancer that has come back or spread. It may be an option if you have not had any prior immunotherapy and your tumor is PD-L1 positive.

How viruses affect tumors and treatment response
This study looks at tumor samples from people with certain cancers to compare those caused by viruses (like HPV, HIV, or EBV) with those not caused by viruses. The goal is to understand why some tumors respond differently to treatments, which may help improve future treatment approaches.
ParisAges 18–100 - NCT06070870Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for squamous cell lung cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 675 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.
