How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT02906943Recruiting
Testing cancer tissue to guide targeted treatment choices
This trial studies advanced solid tumors by using stored tumor samples to look for molecular clues. The goal is to help doctors better choose cancer treatments that may work for your specific tumor.
Hamilton, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT06098560Recruiting
ctDNA as a marker for immunotherapy in advanced colorectal cancer
This study looks at whether a blood test for tumor DNA (ctDNA) can predict how well immunotherapy works in people with advanced or locally advanced colorectal cancer that has specific genetic features (dMMR/MSI-H). If you qualify, the trial will monitor your ctDNA levels while you receive standard immunotherapy to see if changes in those levels can show early on if the treatment is working.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07676461Recruiting
Microbiome study in advanced cancer patients starting immunotherapy
This study looks at the bacteria in your mouth, gut, and tumors to see if they affect how well first-line immunotherapy works. It is for people with advanced stomach, colorectal, breast, cervical, or head-and-neck cancer.

Peptide vaccine study for advanced pancreatic or colon cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a personalized vaccine made from a patient’s tumor to help the immune system recognize and attack cancer. It is for people with advanced pancreatic or colorectal cancer (often after surgery or while metastatic) and aims to see if the approach is safe and can help immune control of the cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for advanced colorectal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 432 recruiting advanced colorectal 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 advanced colorectal 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 advanced colorectal 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.
