Colonoscopy planning for small, noncancerous colon polyps
This trial tests whether people with 1–2 small, noncancerous colon polyps should get their next colonoscopy after 5 years or after 10 years. It may help reduce unnecessary procedures or find cancers earlier if the shorter interval is safer for you.
Fairbanks, AlaskaAges 45–70 - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test to catch cancer early after treatment
This study looks for signs of cancer left in the body after treatment using a simple blood test (called a liquid biopsy). It aims to see if the test can catch cancer that might come back earlier than regular scans.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05038358Recruiting
Study of immune and chemo resistance in colorectal tumors
This study looks at how the immune system around a colorectal tumor relates to resistance to chemotherapy. You may be able to join if you are having surgery soon for colorectal cancer and have not yet had chemotherapy before surgery.
GrenobleAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT04678648RecruitingPhase 1
Testing RSC-1255 in advanced cancers with RAS changes
This early study (Phase 1) tests a new drug, RSC-1255, in people with advanced or metastatic cancers that have RAS mutations. It’s mainly focused on whether the treatment can be given safely and at what dose, and to see if it may shrink tumors.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04674267Recruiting
Health and well-being study for older adults with gastrointestinal cancer
This study looks at how older adults with gastrointestinal cancer manage their health and well-being. It aims to understand and improve care for this group.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 65 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+ - NCT04491929Recruiting
Radiation treatment for colon cancer in the liver using tiny beads
This trial studies a targeted liver radiation procedure that uses tiny radioactive beads to treat colon cancer spread mostly in the liver. It may help people whose liver tumors cannot be removed or treated with other common local treatments, but it has several safety and “screening” checks.
Aarhus N, DanmarkAges 18 years+ - NCT04535661Recruiting
Study of who develops carbapenem-resistant infections in PICU children
This study looks at factors that make some hospitalized children in the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) develop or carry germs called carbapenem-resistant Enterobacteriaceae. It aims to understand who is at higher risk and why, which may help prevent infections in the future.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 4 weeks–18 years - NCT04297592Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Antibiotics to prevent infection after hip or knee replacement
This trial studies whether giving antibiotics before and/or after surgery can lower the chance of a serious joint infection after elective hip or knee replacement. It’s aimed at people at higher risk for infection.
Iowa City, IowaAges 18–99 - NCT04354064Recruiting
Blood DNA test to see early treatment response in solid tumors
This study looks at circulating tumor DNA, which is tiny bits of DNA found in blood, to help assess how solid tumors are responding early. It uses blood samples from healthy adults who are willing to donate.
St Louis, MissouriAges 18 years+ - NCT04117100Recruiting
Study registry for advanced endoscopy treatments
This study keeps a record of people who choose an advanced endoscopy procedure (like ESD, EMR, advanced polypectomy, POEM, or treatment for Zenker’s). It aims to learn about real-world outcomes and safety, which may help improve care for future patients.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT03981497Recruiting
Microwave treatment for small, hard-to-remove liver and kidney tumors
This trial tests using a “microwave ablation” procedure to destroy small liver or kidney tumors when surgery isn’t an option or can’t remove everything. It may help patients avoid major surgery by targeting tumors directly with heat.
MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT03841799Recruiting
Study of gut bacteria and immune changes in colon tissue
This study looks at how gut bacteria and immune activity differ in normal, pre-cancer, and cancer colon tissue. It may help researchers understand what changes in the body are linked to colon growth and how they could be targeted in the future.
Lyon, LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT00582621Recruiting
Family history study to support genetic testing research
This study collects family and medical history to better understand inherited causes of blood cancers (like lymphoma) and related conditions. It may help researchers build genetic findings that could improve how families understand their risk and future care.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges Any age - NCT03702309Recruiting
Banking and testing blood samples to study cancer
This study collects blood samples to “test and store” (bank) information that may help doctors understand cancer in the future. You might be able to join if you’re an adult with confirmed cancer or a higher-than-usual risk for cancer.
Toronto, OntarioAges 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 - NCT02996656Recruiting
Antibiotic prevention for skin bacteria in shoulder surgery
This study checks whether giving an antibiotic “ahead of surgery” can reduce problems from common skin bacteria (Propionibacterium acnes) during primary shoulder surgery. It may help lower the risk of infection around the new joint/repair.
Montreal, QuebecAges 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 - NCT02653001Enrolling by invitation
Testing samples in healthy people near Norwich Research Park
This study collects bowel-related samples from healthy people to help researchers test a “colon model” in the lab. You may be eligible if you live or work close by and you don’t have ongoing stomach/bowel conditions or recent major changes.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colonization?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 435 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.
