Recruiting studies
- NCT06330246Recruiting
Study on gut bacteria for calcium kidney stones
This study looks at whether a specific gut bacteria called Oxalobacter formigenes can help people who form calcium oxalate kidney stones. You will eat a controlled diet and provide samples to see how your body handles oxalate, a substance that can lead to stones.

Sentinel Node and Organ-Sparing Surgery for Early Colon Cancer
This trial tests a less invasive surgery approach for early-stage colon cancer. It uses a special dye to find and remove only the first lymph node (sentinel node) while removing just the part of the colon with the tumor, possibly avoiding a bigger surgery.
AmersfoortAges 18 years+ - NCT07450612Recruiting
Blood test and AI for early colorectal cancer detection
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) and computer analysis to find early signs of colorectal cancer, precancerous growths, and Lynch syndrome. It aims to improve early detection and monitor for any remaining cancer after treatment.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07595874RecruitingPhase 2

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+ - NCT04364373Recruiting
Test of different lymph node surgery for left colon cancer
This study compares two types of lymph node removal during surgery for left-sided colon cancer. It aims to see which surgical approach may work better while ensuring you can still safely complete chemotherapy.

Hamilton, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07140679RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy after surgery for certain colon cancers
This trial tests whether the immunotherapy drug toripalimab can lower the risk of colon cancer coming back after surgery. It is for people with a specific genetic feature called mismatch repair deficiency (dMMR) in their tumor, and whose cancer was at a higher stage (stage IIB, IIC, or III).
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT02172651RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Vitamin D during early colon cancer or liver surgery
This trial studies whether taking higher-dose vitamin D3 around the time of colon cancer (or colon cancer with resectable liver metastases) surgery improves outcomes. It focuses on safety and possible effects on cancer-related health after surgery.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07405476RecruitingPhase 2
Zanidatamab before surgery for HER2 positive colon or rectal cancer
This trial tests if the drug zanidatamab, given before surgery, can help treat colon or rectal cancer that has a specific marker called HER2. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes for people whose cancer has not spread to other parts of the body.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04668872Recruiting
Biopsy after liver radiation to see tumor cell changes
This trial gives radiation to liver tumors and then takes a small tissue sample (biopsy) to look for changes in the cancer cells after treatment. The goal is to learn what the radiation is doing inside the tumor, which may help improve future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 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 - 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 - NCT06640166RecruitingPhase 2
Encorafenib + Cetuximab with FOLFIRI after progression
This trial tests adding a new chemotherapy regimen (FOLFIRI) to the combination of Encorafenib and Cetuximab for people with a specific type of advanced colorectal cancer that has started growing again after initial treatment with Encorafenib and Cetuximab. The goal is to see if the new combination can help control the cancer longer.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT05923255Recruiting
Trial for surgery planning in right-side colon cancer
This trial studies how to treat cancers located near the right bend of the colon (hepatic flexure) or the first part of the transverse colon. It may help patients by testing a specific approach to surgery before and around the time of resection.
Bengbu, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT05064124Recruiting
Real-time healthcare system during colonoscopy for colon cancer
This study tests a new real-time healthcare system meant to improve how doctors find and monitor colon cancer risk during colonoscopy. You might be able to take part if you are scheduled for a non-emergency colonoscopy and meet other safety and medical criteria.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05402696Recruiting
Study of advanced surgery care for colorectal tumors
This study follows adults who are referred for treatment of a specific type of colorectal tumor that involves the left side of the colon. It aims to improve care and outcomes for people needing advanced surgery.
Saint Cloud, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT03471793Recruiting
Test for removing large, flat colon growths by endoscopy
This study looks at patients who have a large, flat (sessile) or spreading growth in the colon that doctors plan to remove using an endoscopy. It aims to study the endoscopic removal process and outcomes for these bigger lesions.
Westmead, New South WalesAges 18–99 - NCT06915818Recruiting
Magnet-assisted colon surgery study

- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 448 recruiting colonization 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 colonization 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 colonization 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.
