Recruiting studies
- NCT06512480Recruiting
Robotic colorectal surgery with the Hugo RAS platform
This trial is testing a new robotic system (Hugo RAS) for planned colorectal surgeries, such as for colon or rectal cancer or diverticulosis. It aims to see how well the robot works alongside enhanced recovery programs to help you heal faster.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT06321536RecruitingPhase 2
Testing microbiota therapy for resistant bacteria in the gut
This study tests a treatment made from healthy donor stool (called microbiota therapy) given as an enema or through a feeding tube. It aims to help people who carry resistant bacteria that are hard to treat, by reducing or clearing those bacteria from the gut.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05871476Recruiting
Study to reduce resistant bacteria spread in young children
This study tests ways to reduce how a hard-to-treat bacterial germ spreads between hospitals, homes, communities, and animals. It focuses on children under 2 years old in the selected hospital area because they may be more likely to pick up and spread the bacteria.
Thái Bình, Thai BinhAges Up to 2 years - NCT04798898Recruiting
RFA plus immune stimulation during liver surgery for colon cancer spread
This trial looks at whether using a heat-based treatment (RFA) to trigger the immune system before or during liver surgery can improve outcomes for people with colon cancer that has spread to the liver. It’s aimed at people who plan to have the liver tumors removed because they look treatable.
AarhusAges 18–99 - NCT04028401RecruitingPhase 3
Skin prep study to reduce bacteria in shoulder replacement surgery
This study tests whether a specific skin-cleaning method before shoulder replacement surgery can reduce a common bacteria (Cutibacterium acnes) found on skin and deeper samples. It may help lower the risk of infection or contamination during prosthetic shoulder surgery.
AngersAges 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 - NCT04220905Recruiting
Watching outcomes after removing large colon and duodenal polyps
This observational study follows people who have large polyps in the colon or duodenum that are removed during endoscopy. It aims to understand how safe and effective this approach is, and what outcomes patients have afterward.
White River Junction, VermontAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT06476145Recruiting
Testing two ways to reduce polyp regrowth after removal
This study looks at two different methods for removing large colon polyps to see which one better prevents polyps from coming back. It may help people who have a non-cancerous, flat polyp that is at least 20 mm wide.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06406062Recruiting
AI-assisted colonoscopy study
This trial tests an artificial intelligence (AI) system during colonoscopy to help doctors see polyps or other issues more clearly. It may help improve detection of problems in the colon.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 50 years+ - NCT06317727Recruiting
Pulsed field ablation for removing colon polyps
This study tests a new way to remove colon polyps using short bursts of energy (pulsed field ablation) instead of standard methods. It may help people with polyps in the lower part of the colon that are not too large or complex.
LondonAges 18 years+ - NCT05643859Recruiting
Fiber supplement study for bowel health and gut bacteria
This study tests whether adding a dietary fiber supplement can change the bacteria in your colon (gut microbiome). You may be asked to take the fiber supplement during evaluation for a non-cancer rectal condition.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT06258551Recruiting
Tracking hard-to-treat bacteria in ICU and transplant patients
This study will track how certain hard-to-treat bacteria spread and cause infections in people who are in the intensive care unit (ICU) or have had a stem cell transplant. The goal is to better understand and prevent these infections in vulnerable patients.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07060443RecruitingPhase 2
Fluorescent dye study for right-sided colon cancer surgery
This trial tests whether using a fluorescent dye during surgery can help doctors better see and remove lymph nodes in people with right-sided colon cancer. It aims to make surgery more precise and potentially improve outcomes.
DaeguAges 19–85 - NCT06244537Recruiting
MR-Linac radiation for advanced colon cancer
This trial tests a new radiation machine called MR-Linac for people with advanced colon cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to see if it is safe and works well.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07592793Enrolling by invitation
Community Health Worker Perspectives on New Programs
This study asks community health center workers and partner staff about their experiences implementing a new health program. Your feedback helps researchers understand what works and what challenges exist in delivering care in community settings.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT07089615Recruiting
Capsule vs colonoscopy for polyp detection
This trial tests a new capsule that you swallow to take pictures of your colon. It may help find polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) as well as a standard colonoscopy does.
Chula Vista, CaliforniaAges 45–75 - NCT05822895Recruiting
Testing a real-time computer to help find colon polyps
This study checks whether a computer tool helps doctors find colon polyps during routine colonoscopy. If the tool improves detection, it could help find growths earlier and guide safer follow-up.
Singapore, SingaporeAges 21–90 - NCT06494917Recruiting
Manual therapy and pelvic floor exercises for constipation
This trial tests whether manual therapy (hands-on muscle work) and pelvic floor exercises can help people with constipation. It's a chance to try a non-medication approach for better bowel function.
ŞırnakAges 18–55 - NCT06906952Enrolling by invitation
Robotic surgery through the anus vs. standard robotic surgery for rectal cancer
This trial compares two robotic surgery methods for high rectal and sigmoid colon cancer—one that removes the tumor through the anus (NOSES-IV) and the traditional assisted approach. It aims to see which way may lead to better recovery.
NanchangAges 18–80 - 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+ - NCT07280143Recruiting
MASLD risk in breast or colorectal cancer survivors
This study looks at whether breast or colorectal cancer survivors are more likely to develop a liver condition called MASLD (fatty liver disease not caused by alcohol). It uses blood tests, imaging, and possibly an MRI to check liver health.
BernAges 18 years+ - NCT07228000Recruiting
Cancer screening and genetic services navigation for Black and Hispanic women
This study helps Black and Hispanic women ages 45-74 get both breast and colorectal cancer screenings and genetic services. It provides a navigator to guide you through the process.
Newark, DelawareAges 45–74 - NCT06856707Enrolling by invitation

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colonization?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 444 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.
