Recruiting studies near Baltimore
- NCT07222800RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug plus chemo for stage 4 colorectal cancer
This study tests a new experimental drug (PF-08634404) combined with standard chemotherapy for people with stage 4 colorectal cancer who have not yet been treated for their advanced disease. The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink or slow the growth of tumors.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 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.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03452774Recruiting
AI matches your cancer tests to possible treatment trials
This trial uses an AI system to help match people with certain cancer types and specific tumor test results (like gene or protein markers) to relevant clinical trials. It may help you and your doctor find studies that fit your cancer biology faster.
Baltimore, MarylandAges Any age - NCT07186296Recruiting
Emerald blood test study for new cancer diagnosis
This study is testing a blood test that looks for signs of lung, breast, colorectal, pancreatic, or ovarian cancer. If you have just been told you might have one of these cancers and haven't started treatment yet, this study may be an option to help learn more about your cancer from a simple blood draw.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 45 years+ - NCT05174169RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Adjuvant colon chemotherapy guided by tumor DNA results
This trial tests whether treatment for colon cancer after surgery can be guided by a blood test that looks for leftover cancer signals (ctDNA). It may help some people choose stronger or different chemo based on whether ctDNA is found after surgery.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07143487Recruiting
Family communication after genetic testing for colon cancer
This trial studies how patients with newly diagnosed colon cancer share genetic test results with their family members. It aims to improve communication and support after learning about hereditary risk.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05283330RecruitingPhase 1
Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02012699Recruiting
Cancer registry for people with or at risk of cancer
This trial collects health information and samples (a “cancer repository”) to help researchers study cancer and cancer risk. You may be able to join if you’ve had cancer before or if you’re at higher risk or have concerning findings.
Randallstown, MarylandAges 19–110 - NCT07011576RecruitingPhase 2
Fruquintinib plus FOLFIRI for second-line metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, fruquintinib and FOLFIRI chemotherapy, as a second treatment option for people with metastatic colorectal cancer. It is designed for patients who have already received one prior treatment containing oxaliplatin, fluoropyrimidine, and bevacizumab.
Columbia, MarylandAges 18 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 - NCT05855200RecruitingPhase 3
Dostarlimab around surgery for certain untreated colon cancers
This trial studies dostarlimab given around the time of colon cancer surgery for people with untreated, resectable (operable) stage T4N0 or stage III colon cancer that has specific tumor markers. It may help shrink or eliminate the cancer before or after surgery by boosting the immune response.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT03190941RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T-cell therapy for HLA-A11:01 and KRAS G12V tumors
This trial tests a custom immune-cell treatment made from your blood that targets the KRAS G12V change in certain cancers. It is for people with advanced cancer who have already tried standard treatments, and it may help your immune system recognize and attack tumor cells.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT00451022Recruiting
Follow-up study for people who received gene-carrying viral vaccines
This is a follow-up study for adults who previously received certain viral vaccines that carry genes (such as vaccinia or fowlpox) through NCI trials or partner sites. The goal is to store and use your leftover samples for future research that may help doctors understand these treatments better.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT02595957Recruiting
Study about how people understand genetic test results
This trial studies what people and families think and understand about genetic test results, especially when results suggest a higher risk for disease. It may also include interviews and follow-up, and in some cases additional family testing if it fits the study’s goals.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 1 month–105 years - NCT00034216Recruiting
Blood Collection Study for Cancer Patients and Healthy Volunteers
This study collects blood samples from people with cancer and healthy volunteers to help researchers understand cancer better. Your blood will be used for laboratory studies that may improve future cancer treatments.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07228000Recruiting
Cancer screening and genetic services navigation for Black and Hispanic women
This study helps Black and Hispanic women ages 45-74 get both breast and colorectal cancer screenings and genetic services. It provides a navigator to guide you through the process.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 45–74 - NCT05612347Recruiting
Compare stool test vs colonoscopy for older adults with polyps
This study compares two ways to check for colon polyps in older adults: using a stool test versus having a colonoscopy. It may help find a simpler option if you only had a small number of lower-risk polyps before.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 65–82 - 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+ - NCT07127874RecruitingPhase 1
Study of PHN-012 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called PHN-012 for people with advanced colorectal, non-small cell lung, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried at least one standard treatment. The goal is to see if the drug can help shrink or slow tumor growth.

What taking part in a colon cancer study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
