Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 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.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Dublin, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - 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 - 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.
HsinchuAges 18 years+ - NCT06960291Recruiting
EXCEL Exercise Program for Cancer Patients in Canada
This study tests a national exercise program called EXCEL for people with cancer. It helps you start or continue safe physical activity to manage side effects and improve your well-being.
Calgary, AlbertaAges 18 years+ - NCT06940947RecruitingPhase 3
Endoscopy or surgery for early colon cancer
This trial compares a newer, less invasive endoscopic procedure with standard surgery for people who have a small, early-stage colon cancer. The goal is to see if the endoscopic treatment is as effective as surgery while being gentler on the body.
GdanskAges Any age - NCT06904365Recruiting
Ovarian-sparing radiation for young women
This study tests a way to give radiation therapy that avoids the ovaries as much as possible, to help preserve fertility and hormone function in young women.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18–50 - 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+ - 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+ - NCT06715839Recruiting
Digestive cancer imaging study with targeted antibodies
This trial uses a special imaging test (PET scan) to find digestive system cancers. It uses molecules that attach to cancer cells so they light up on the scan, which may help doctors see tumors more clearly.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06686576RecruitingPhase 3
Study of QL1706 before surgery for MSI-H colon cancer
This trial tests a new immunotherapy medicine (QL1706) given before surgery to treat colon cancer that hasn't spread yet. It's designed for patients whose tumors have a specific gene feature (MSI-H/dMMR) and who haven't had any prior treatment for this cancer.

Study of A2B395 therapy for solid tumors with EGFR and HLA loss
This trial tests a new cell therapy called A2B395 for cancers that have EGFR, a protein on the cell surface, and have lost a specific marker called HLA-A*02. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells to target and kill these cancer cells. This may help patients with colorectal, lung, head and neck, breast, kidney, or other solid tumors that are no longer responding to standard treatments.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colon cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 290 recruiting colon cancer 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 colon cancer 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 colon cancer 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.
