Predicting colorectal adenoma recurrence using combined medicine approach
This study helps predict which patients with colorectal adenomas (pre-cancerous growths) are at higher risk of them coming back or turning into cancer.

SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05287451Recruiting
Tube removal now, ovaries later for high cancer-risk women
This study looks at the safety of removing your fallopian tubes first (RRS) and delaying ovary removal (oophorectomy) to lower cancer risk. It focuses on women who carry certain inherited gene changes, and may help avoid earlier menopause for some people.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07377279Recruiting

- Are there clinical trials for cancer prevention?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 290 recruiting cancer prevention 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 cancer prevention 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 cancer prevention 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.
