Colorectal screening study for Black and underserved Phoenix adults
This study aims to help improve colorectal cancer screening (checking the colon) in Black and underserved communities in Phoenix. It may help you find out which screening tests fit you and encourage regular screening.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 45 years+ - NCT05482516RecruitingPhase 3
Testing blood test–guided treatment for GI cancers in remission
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving treatment based on a positive blood test for “minimal cancer signals” (ctDNA) can help people with certain GI cancers stay cancer-free longer. It focuses on people who have finished curative-intent therapy and currently have no visible disease on scans, but their blood test is still positive.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05963191Recruiting
Test camera bowel scan for early Lynch syndrome lesions
This study tests a special CAD-EYE system to help detect abnormal (potentially cancer-related) growths during colonoscopy in people with Lynch syndrome. It may improve how reliably clinicians find lesions early, when treatment can be easier.
ParisAges 18–90 - NCT06682650Recruiting
Colorectal cancer screening tool for Spanish-speaking communities
This study tests if a new tool can help clinics in Spanish-speaking communities get more people screened for colorectal cancer. If you are an adult 45–75 who is due for screening and get care at a participating clinic, you may be eligible.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 45–75 - NCT06192875Recruiting
Blood test for early cancer detection: the NOMAD study
This study is testing a new blood test to look for early signs of cancer in people without a past cancer diagnosis. You would give blood, urine, and saliva samples to help researchers see if the test works well.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT04743479Recruiting
AI screening for pancreatic cancer in higher-risk people
This trial uses an artificial-intelligence tool to help detect pancreatic cancer earlier and track people at higher risk. You may be asked to complete questionnaires and have imaging tests like MRI or CT to see how well the approach works.
ShanghaiAges 50–75 - NCT05197322RecruitingPhase 2
Pembrolizumab before surgery for MMR-deficient colon or rectal cancer
This trial tests pembrolizumab (an immunotherapy medicine) given before curative surgery in people with certain MMR-deficient colon or rectal cancers. It aims to shrink or control the cancer so surgery can be done more effectively, and to see if outcomes improve compared with standard care.
CambridgeAges 18 years+ - NCT06957015Recruiting
New system to measure polyp size during colonoscopy
This trial tests a new computer system that helps doctors estimate the size of polyps during a colonoscopy. It may help doctors make better decisions about your treatment.
ShatinAges 18 years+ - NCT06997497RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Calderasib with other drugs for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Calderasib combined with targeted therapy or chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12C mutation). It may be an option for those who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06791512RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo Plus Targeted Therapy With or Without Immunotherapy for Colorectal Cancer
This trial compares a standard chemotherapy combination (mFOLFOX6) plus a targeted drug (bevacizumab) with or without an immunotherapy (PD-1 antibody) for locally advanced colorectal cancer. It aims to see if adding the immunotherapy improves outcomes for patients with a specific tumor type (pMMR/MSS).
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT05463796Recruiting
Prevention and early detection for people at high cancer risk
This study looks at surveillance (watching closely), prevention, and early “interception” steps to lower the chance that cancer will develop or be found later. It is for people with genetic risk, past cancer treatment exposures, strong family history, or certain early pre-cancer or high-risk conditions.
Boston, MassachusettsAges Any age - NCT06376565Recruiting
Improving colonoscopy follow-up for high-risk polyps
This study aims to understand why some people return for a follow-up colonoscopy after having high-risk colon polyps and to find ways to improve the process. It involves interviews and testing new approaches to ensure patients get the right follow-up care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT06885697RecruitingPhase 1
CAR T cells targeting mesothelin for solid tumors
This study tests a new treatment called CAR T cells that target a protein called mesothelin found on certain cancer cells. The CAR T cells are made from your own immune cells and may help shrink tumors that have not responded to other therapies.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT07276529Recruiting
