We’re tracking 57 recruiting colorectal cancer (crc) studies with a site in California — including Phase 1 studies, each written for real people, not researchers.
Recruiting studies in California
- NCT06542835Recruiting
Telehealth support for colorectal cancer screening
This study tests whether telehealth support can help people get recommended colorectal cancer screening. It may be a good fit if you haven't been screened recently and are willing to use your phone for health guidance.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 45–64 - NCT04510129Recruiting
Cancer biospecimen collection study for immunotherapy patients
This study collects samples (like tissue biopsies and imaging information) from people with certain cancers who are starting anti–PD-1/PD-L1 immunotherapy. It helps researchers gather material to study how these treatments work.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05410977Recruiting
Testing blood and stool for colon cancer in Lynch syndrome
This study collects blood and stool samples to see how well they can detect colorectal cancer or advanced growths in people with Lynch syndrome (an inherited colon cancer risk) or suspected Lynch syndrome. It may help find cancer or precancer earlier, which can improve next-step decisions.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT00843375Recruiting
Testing stool samples to find early colon cancer and polyps
This study checks stool samples to see how well stool tests can detect early colon cancer and precancerous growths called adenomas. If you qualify, you’ll collect stool samples for a lab test (FIT) and sometimes this helps sort who should get follow-up testing.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04429542RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an EGFR-targeting drug for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety of BCA101 (an EGFR-targeting treatment) alone or combined with pembrolizumab. It may help people with certain EGFR-driven advanced cancers, depending on the tumor type, prior treatments, and required biopsy testing.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06004245RecruitingPhase 1
Study of new drug for advanced solid tumors with certain genetic markers
This trial is testing a new oral medication, VVD-133214, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific genetic feature called MSI-high or dMMR. The study will see if the drug is safe and effective when given alone or with other drugs like bevacizumab or pembrolizumab.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07623902Recruiting
Tongue test to improve colorectal cancer screening
This study is testing a new, non-invasive tongue test called Gixam. The goal is to see if the test can help detect colorectal cancer or pre-cancerous growths in people whose standard stool tests (FIT) came back negative, potentially improving screening accuracy.
Lancaster, CaliforniaAges 45–84 - NCT06376565Recruiting
Improving colonoscopy follow-up for high-risk polyps
This study aims to understand why some people return for a follow-up colonoscopy after having high-risk colon polyps and to find ways to improve the process. It involves interviews and testing new approaches to ensure patients get the right follow-up care.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 21 years+ - NCT05107674RecruitingPhase 1
Early drug study for advanced cancers that have limited options
This Phase 1 study tests NX-1607 in adults with advanced cancers that are hard to treat with standard care. It focuses on safety and early signs of how well the drug may work in specific cancer types.

What taking part in a colorectal cancer (crc) study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.

Common questions
- Are there colorectal cancer (crc) clinical trials in California?
- Yes. We're currently tracking 57 recruiting colorectal cancer (crc) studies with a site in California, each rewritten in plain language so you can see what it's testing and who it's for.
- How do I find out if I qualify for a colorectal cancer (crc) study in California?
- Each study lists its eligibility rules — age, diagnosis, prior treatments. On every trial page we explain these in plain language and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Do I have to live in California to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in California, but eligibility is about your health, not your address — some people travel to take part, and a few studies reimburse travel. The study team can tell you what's required.
- Does it cost anything to join a colorectal cancer (crc) trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what's covered before you decide.
Not the right time?
New colorectal cancer (crc) studies open in California regularly. Set up a health profile and we’ll quietly watch for studies that fit you and email you when one opens.
