Recruiting studies in Pennsylvania
- NCT03539822RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cabozantinib and immunotherapy for advanced stomach or bowel cancers
This early-phase study tests a combination of anti-cancer pills and immune-based treatment for people with advanced stomach, esophagus, colorectal, or liver cancer. It aims to shrink tumors and see how safe the treatment is, including whether biopsy testing can help guide future care.
Pittsburgh, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07417488RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine therapy for advanced colorectal and small bowel cancer
This trial tests a vaccine therapy for people with advanced colorectal or small bowel cancer that has spread or can't be removed. The vaccine targets a protein found on cancer cells to help your immune system fight the cancer.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 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.
Hershey, PennsylvaniaAges 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.

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.

- 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 Pennsylvania to take part?
- Not necessarily. These studies have a site in Pennsylvania, 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.
