Recruiting studies
- NCT07204665Enrolling by invitation

6 vs 12 month follow-up after large colon polyp removal
This trial compares whether a follow-up colonoscopy at 6 or 12 months is better for people who have had a large polyp (20-50 mm) removed. It will help doctors understand the best timing for surveillance.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06915818Recruiting

Santiago, Huechuraba, Región MetropolitanaAges 22 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+ - NCT06550908Recruiting
Training doctors to spot polyp patterns in colon images
This trial teaches physicians to identify polyp features using AI-generated images. It aims to improve cancer detection skills.
WürzburgAges 18 years+ - NCT06462521Enrolling by invitation
Comparing two ways to remove large polyps during a colonoscopy
This study compares two methods for removing larger polyps (flat growths) found during a colonoscopy. It tests if one technique works as well or better than the other for people with certain types of polyps.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 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 - 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.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05868226RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Personalized cancer treatment study for advanced solid tumors
This study tests different treatments tailored to your cancer's biology. It aims to find which therapy might work best for you, potentially improving outcomes. You'd receive one of the study drugs, with close monitoring and support.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 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+ - NCT04751448Recruiting
Study tracking care in colon cancer patients
This study follows people with colon cancer over time to learn how treatments and health changes relate to outcomes. You may be invited if your care plan includes FOLFOX and you meet certain genetic and medical history requirements.
Temple, TexasAges 18–79 - NCT04450758Recruiting
Stent or stoma right away versus surgery later for bowel blockage
This trial studies treatment choices for adults with a large-bowel blockage caused by colon cancer. It compares doing an emergency procedure now (like a stent or stoma) versus bridging to a later colon surgery, to see which approach is safer and works better.
GothenburgAges 18–100 - NCT04980287Recruiting
Surgery trial for colon cancer spread to stomach-area fat
This trial studies whether a specific surgery that removes the colon’s associated tissue (and part of the nearby stomach-area tissue) improves outcomes for certain colon cancer cases that are at risk of spreading there. If you qualify, your doctors will compare your treatment approach as part of the study to see if it helps.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT03125980RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo timing before vs after colon cancer surgery
This Phase 3 study compares two schedules of a colon cancer chemo combination: starting before surgery or starting after surgery. It aims to see which timing helps people live longer and lowers cancer coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT02332785Recruiting
Study for people with serrated colon polyps
This study follows people who have serrated polyps in the colon to learn more about these growths. It may help doctors better understand what they are and how to manage them.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT04307901Recruiting
Test a capsule that checks the colon when colonoscopy isn’t finished
This trial tests whether a swallowable camera capsule can safely check the colon and find possible tumor-related issues when a standard colonoscopy can’t be completed. It may help people who can’t or don’t want another colonoscopy right away.
SvendborgAges 18 years+ - NCT05099432Recruiting
CARMA technique after removing up to two colon polyps
This study tests a specific approach (the CARMA technique) for colon polyp treatment after doctors remove polyps during colonoscopy. It may help reduce future problems at the polyp site, but only certain polyp types and follow-up plans qualify.
Woolloongabba, QueenslandAges 16 years+ - NCT05529615Recruiting
Blood DNA test guides chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery
This trial checks a blood test called circulating tumor DNA to help choose the best time and approach for chemotherapy after colon cancer surgery. It aims to reduce recurrence by identifying people who may benefit from treatment based on changes seen in the blood.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04871399Recruiting
Right colon cancer surgery with more thorough tissue removal
This trial compares a more complete surgery (removing the right colon and surrounding tissue more thoroughly) versus the usual right-colon surgery. It aims to see if the more thorough approach improves outcomes for people with non-metastatic right colon cancer.
Grosseto, ArezzoAges 18–85 - NCT05742425RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy with chemo and targeted drug for colon cancer in the belly
This Phase 2 trial tests serplulimab (immunotherapy) combined with FOLFIRI chemo plus bevacizumab for colon cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal metastases). It aims to shrink these tumors and improve outcomes when surgery can’t fully remove them.
Huzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04959604Recruiting
Fluorescent dye mapping to find lymph nodes in colon cancer
This trial studies whether a fluorescent dye used during an exam can help doctors map (find) lymph nodes in colon cancer. It may help improve how surgeons plan treatment and decide what to remove.
HamburgAges 18–100 - NCT05914389RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemotherapy before surgery for colon cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies giving chemotherapy plus immune therapy before surgery for certain colon cancers that do not have mismatch repair defects (MSS/pMMR). The goal is to shrink and control the tumor and improve outcomes compared with standard approaches.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colonization?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 436 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.
