Recruiting studies in California
- NCT05672108RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo delivered into lung tumors using a catheter
This trial studies a treatment that delivers chemotherapy directly to lung tumors by placing a catheter into lung blood vessels. It may help people with lung cancer or lung metastases that are growing despite standard treatment, or who cannot tolerate it.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 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+ - 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.
San Diego, CaliforniaAges 65–82 - NCT05669430RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing an anti-cancer drug alone and with pembrolizumab
This early-phase study tests GV20-0251 (an anti-cancer treatment) by itself and combined with pembrolizumab, to see how well it works and how safe it is. It is for adults with advanced solid tumors that have grown despite standard treatments, or where standard treatments aren’t an option.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - 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.

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.

Common questions
- Are there colon cancer clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 30 recruiting colon cancer studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a colon cancer study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a colon cancer trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
