- NCT07224841Recruiting
Blood test to predict targeted therapy response in colorectal cancer
This study is developing a blood test that looks at DNA signals to see if certain targeted therapies will work for people with metastatic colorectal cancer. It may help doctors choose the right treatment in the future.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06720987RecruitingPhase 1
KQB365 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS mutations
This trial tests a new drug called KQB365, alone or with other drugs, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation (G12C or G12S). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and effective.

Neoadjuvant therapy for locally advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy, an immunotherapy drug (anti-PD-1 antibody), and sitagliptin before surgery for colorectal cancer that has not spread to other organs. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT05803382RecruitingPhase 1
Adding a new drug to capecitabine for metastatic colorectal cancer
This Phase 1 study tests a new anti-cancer drug (ZEN003694) added to the usual chemotherapy capecitabine. It is for adults with colorectal cancer (and possibly other cancers) that has spread or cannot be removed and has continued despite prior standard treatment.
Irvine, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221357RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Pumitamig plus chemo vs standard care for new colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Pumitamig combined with chemotherapy against standard bevacizumab plus chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed and hasn't been treated yet. The goal is to see which combination works better and is safer.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05346757Recruiting
Test stool DNA changes to screen or find colorectal cancer
This study checks whether a stool test that looks for tiny genetic signals can help detect colorectal cancer (or find it again after prior findings). You may be asked to provide a stool sample around the time you get a colonoscopy.
BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT06314022Recruiting
Mobile app for better colonoscopy in cancer screening
This study tests a mobile app designed to help improve the quality of colonoscopies for people in a colorectal cancer screening program. If you have had a positive FIT test and are between 50 and 69, you may be able to join.
Valladolid, ValladolidAges 50–74 - NCT07283367RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of targeted therapies for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a certain genetic pattern (non-MSI-H, no BRAF V600E mutation). It aims to see if the combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
GuangzhouAges 18 years+ - NCT06280495RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Targeted drugs plus chemo before surgery for colon cancer with liver spread
This trial tests whether adding two targeted drugs (serplulimab and bevacizumab) to standard chemotherapy before surgery can improve outcomes for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It is for those whose cancer has certain genetic features and is considered resectable.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT06551207Recruiting
New drug combo with radiation for advanced MSS colon cancer
This trial tests a new combination—an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab) plus a targeted anti-angiogenesis pill (fruquintinib) and focused radiation (SBRT)—for people with MSS colorectal cancer that has progressed after at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this triple approach can help shrink or control the cancer better than standard options.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07095517RecruitingPhase 1
Preventing early-onset colorectal tumors with tirzepatide
This study tests if tirzepatide can help prevent early-onset colorectal tumors in people aged 18-50 who have had certain types of polyps removed. It aims to find risk factors and ways to stop colorectal cancer before it starts.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18–50 - NCT05528783Recruiting
Testing FIT-DNA to guide follow-up after colon cancer surgery
This trial checks a stool test called FIT-DNA after colorectal (colon) cancer surgery. It aims to see whether this test can help doctors monitor for recurrence during follow-up and decide how closely to watch.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07578571RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a New Cancer Treatment Called IM-1617
This is an early-stage study testing a new drug (IM-1617) for advanced solid cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug combines an antibody with a cancer-killing agent and may help people whose cancer has progressed despite prior therapy.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07261631RecruitingPhase 1
A study of a new radioactive drug for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug called [177Lu]Lu-DFC413 for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The drug is designed to target cancer cells with a specific marker seen on a special scan.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18–100 - NCT06745895Recruiting
Colorectal cancer and hepatitis C education and screening study
This study helps people who go to certain clinics get screened for colorectal cancer and hepatitis C. It provides information and support to those who haven't had all their recommended screenings yet.
Tampa, FloridaAges 45–75 - NCT04930432RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
MCLA-129 for advanced EGFR- and MET-positive lung and other cancers
This early-phase trial tests MCLA-129, an antibody that targets EGFR and MET, in people with advanced cancers that have specific lab “biomarker” results. It’s for patients whose cancer has grown after standard treatments or can’t take standard treatment, with the goal of shrinking tumors and improving symptoms.
BaodingAges 18 years+ - NCT06310564Recruiting
SBRT for limited metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether focused radiation (SBRT) can treat 1 to 3 metastases in people with colorectal cancer that has spread but is still low or intermediate risk. It may be an option if you are starting first or second line systemic therapy and your primary tumor is under control.
Negrar, VeronaAges 18 years+ - NCT05748145RecruitingPhase 2
Metronidazole before colon cancer surgery to reduce recurrence risk
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking metronidazole, an antibiotic, before surgery for colorectal cancer can improve outcomes. Participants take it before their planned operation, and doctors study the cancer tissue and related markers to see if it helps.

Gene therapy for advanced colorectal cancer (dMMR/MSI-H)
This trial tests a new gene therapy (HNF4α SrRNA) given through a vein for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic marker (dMMR or MSI-H). It's for those who have already tried standard treatments without success or couldn't take them.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07035691Recruiting

This early-phase study tests NM1F (an anti-PVRIG antibody) in people with advanced solid tumors to see if it’s safe and whether it may work. It also includes pembrolizumab (a PD-1 “checkpoint” medicine), aiming to boost the immune system against the cancer.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06553885RecruitingPhase 2
Study of enfortumab vedotin for advanced colorectal or liver cancer

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (crc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 307 recruiting colorectal cancer (crc) 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 colorectal cancer (crc) 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 colorectal cancer (crc) 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.
