Recruiting studies
- NCT04120701RecruitingPhase 3
Using blood DNA tests to guide colon cancer treatment after surgery

DijonAges 18–75 - NCT07143487Recruiting
Family communication after genetic testing for colon cancer

Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT06802172Recruiting
Timing meals during cancer treatment for Alaska Native patients
This study tests whether scheduling meals at specific times of day can improve how patients feel during cancer treatment. It is for Alaska Native or American Indian people with certain cancers (rectal, HER2+ or triple negative breast, or other solid tumors) who are receiving neoadjuvant (before surgery) or adjuvant (after surgery) therapy.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 21 years+ - NCT03819296RecruitingPhase 1
Fecal transplant to treat cancer immunotherapy bowel side effects
This early-phase study tests whether changing your gut bacteria with a fecal transplant can improve diarrhea or colitis caused by cancer immunotherapy. It may help people whose symptoms have not fully settled with standard treatments like steroids and other immune-blocking medicines.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04089631RecruitingPhase 3
Blood test guides extra treatment after stage II colon cancer surgery
This study uses a blood test called ctDNA to decide whether you need extra (adjuvant) chemotherapy after stage II colon or certain stage II rectal cancer surgery. It may help avoid unnecessary treatment or better target people who still have signs of cancer after surgery.
Dresden, SaxonyAges 18 years+ - NCT04624555Recruiting
Check how well stool DNA tests help watch for colon cancer return
This trial studies whether an at-home stool DNA test (Mt-sDNA) can safely and usefully monitor people after colon or rectal cancer treatment. It’s mainly about whether the test is practical and helpful during routine follow-up.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT04907643Recruiting
Virtual reality program to reduce stomach-cancer pain
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) can improve pain and other day-to-day symptoms in people with certain gastrointestinal cancers. You’d use VR for pain relief while researchers measure how you’re feeling.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99 - 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 - NCT05194878RecruitingPhase 3
Before-surgery chemotherapy vs immediate surgery for colon cancer
This trial compares giving chemotherapy before surgery versus going straight to surgery for certain stage II/III colon cancers. It may help shrink the tumor and improve outcomes by testing which approach works best for high-risk cases.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05239546RecruitingPhase 2
Dostarlimab before colon surgery for mismatch-repair–deficient cancer
This study tests dostarlimab given before surgery for stage II or III colon cancer that has a specific DNA repair defect. It aims to shrink or control the cancer so that some people may be able to skip surgery if the results are good.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18 years+ - NCT05529615Recruiting
Blood DNA test guides chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery
This trial checks a blood test called circulating tumor DNA to help choose the best time and approach for chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery. It aims to reduce recurrence by identifying people who may benefit from treatment based on changes seen in the blood.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05870800RecruitingPhase 2
Study Immunotherapy and Chemotherapy Before Colon Surgery
This trial tests immunotherapy plus chemotherapy given before surgery for colon cancer that hasn’t spread. It aims to shrink or control the tumor and improve outcomes in people whose tumor has certain immune/biologic features.
Houston, TexasAges 18–80 - NCT06076811Recruiting
Guiding colorectal cancer follow-up with a blood test
This trial uses a blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA remaining after surgery. It aims to see if this test can help guide follow-up and treatment decisions for people with colorectal cancer.
Copenhagen, Capital Region of DenmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT06204484Recruiting
MRD-guided Chemo Timing for Early Colon Cancer
This trial is for people with early-stage colon cancer (stage II high-risk or stage III low-risk) that is not MSI-H. It uses a blood test (MRD) to see if you can safely delay or skip extra chemotherapy after surgery, based on whether the test finds any leftover cancer cells.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06254521RecruitingPhase 2
Tislelizumab plus chemo before surgery for MSS rectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of an immunotherapy drug (tislelizumab) plus chemotherapy before surgery for people with a specific type of rectal cancer that has not spread to other organs. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor more effectively than standard treatment.
Nanning, GuangxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06287814Recruiting
Blood test to detect leftover cancer DNA in colorectal cancer patients
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) to look for tiny bits of tumor DNA remaining after colorectal cancer surgery. It aims to see if the test can help predict whether the cancer will come back, especially in people with stage III cancer who will receive chemotherapy.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 18 years+ - NCT06349642Recruiting
Testing a live tumor test for immune therapy response
This trial uses a special test on live tumor samples to see if it can predict how well immune checkpoint inhibitors (a type of immunotherapy) will work for different cancers. It may help doctors choose the best treatment for you.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06434896Recruiting
Blood test to guide chemotherapy in stage II colon cancer
This trial is for people with stage II colon cancer who are not currently getting chemotherapy. It uses a blood test to look for tumor DNA, so doctors can decide if chemotherapy might help prevent the cancer from coming back.
's-HertogenboschAges 18 years+ - NCT06490536RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new treatment for high-risk colon cancer after surgery
This trial tests a new treatment approach for people with certain high-risk colon cancers (stage II or III in the upper colon) after surgery. It aims to see if adding a study drug can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06580574RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy to save the stomach or colon from surgery
This trial tests whether using immune checkpoint inhibitors alone (like checkpoint blockade drugs) can help people with certain gastric or colon cancers avoid surgery. It's for patients whose tumors have a specific genetic feature called dMMR/MSI-H and haven't spread to other parts of the body.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06609551RecruitingPhase 3
ctDNA-guided chemo choice for elderly colon cancer patients
This trial tests whether using a ctDNA blood test can help choose the best chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery for people aged 70–80. It aims to make treatment more personalized and reduce side effects.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 70–80 - NCT06746012Recruiting
Health app study for colorectal cancer survivors and their caregivers
This study tests a mobile health program to help colorectal cancer survivors and their family caregivers stick to healthy lifestyle habits. It's for survivors who are at least 6 months past treatment and have a smartphone.
Columbus, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT06830239RecruitingPhase 2
Neoadjuvant dostarlimab for resectable stage III colon cancer
This trial tests an investigational immunotherapy drug called dostarlimab given before surgery for colon cancer. It is for people whose tumor is MMR-proficient (also called MSS) and is large enough or has spread to nearby lymph nodes but not to other parts of the body. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the tumor before surgery.
LeuvenAges 18 years+ - NCT06958926Recruiting
Study of colon cancer that returns after surgery
This study looks at colon cancer that comes back in the same area after surgery. It may help doctors understand how to better treat this type of recurrence.
