Recruiting studies
- 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.
New Haven, ConnecticutAges 18 years+ - NCT00722228RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Cancer vaccine made from your cells or a donor
This early-phase trial tests a whole-cell cancer vaccine for people with certain metastatic cancers. It aims to help your immune system recognize and fight the cancer, especially when prior chemotherapy hasn’t worked.
JerusalemAges 18 years+ - NCT03740256RecruitingPhase 1
HER2-targeted oncolytic virus plus custom immune cells for solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests a treatment plan that combines a virus designed to attack cancer with your own custom immune cells that target HER2. It aims to shrink advanced HER2-positive solid tumors (and make future options safer/more effective).
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06311214RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized ADC therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests personalized antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) for advanced solid tumors. It looks for specific proteins on your tumor cells to match you with a treatment that targets them directly.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05058651RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Atezolizumab plus chemo for advanced neuroendocrine cancer outside the lung
This trial tests whether adding an immunotherapy drug called atezolizumab to standard chemotherapy helps people with advanced neuroendocrine carcinoma (a rare and aggressive cancer) that started outside the lung. The goal is to see if the combination works better than chemo alone.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT07525206RecruitingPhase 3
Combination treatment for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination for colorectal cancer that has not responded to other treatments. It compares the new drug with a standard treatment to see which is more effective.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07649655RecruitingPhase 1
Combination therapy for left-sided colorectal cancer
This study tests a new experimental drug, EMB-01, combined with different chemotherapy regimens to treat left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. The goal is to see if this combination is safe and effective for people who have not responded to standard treatments or are new to certain chemotherapies.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–74 - NCT05691517RecruitingPhase 1
Test drug CBX-12 in advanced cancers and monitor your response
This Phase 1 study tests how your body handles the drug CBX-12 in people with advanced solid cancers that have already tried prior treatments. It may help researchers learn safe dosing and how tumors respond, and you may be asked to provide biopsy samples.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT05240950RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for colorectal cancer in the liver
This Phase 1 study tests an anti-CEA CAR-T cell treatment for people whose colorectal cancer spread to the liver but has been surgically removed with no visible remaining tumor. It aims to see if the treatment can better prevent the cancer from coming back, especially when early warning tests suggest leftover cancer cells.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT04938986Recruiting
Testing a tumor marker to predict colon cancer relapse risk
This study looks at whether a lab test on your tumor can better predict the chance that non-metastatic colon cancer will come back after surgery. Researchers will compare relapse risk using the Immunoscore® test to help guide follow-up and treatment decisions.
MarseilleAges 18–80 - NCT04616495Recruiting
Liver transplant for colorectal cancer that can’t be removed
This trial studies liver transplantation for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if transplant can improve outcomes when the cancer is limited to the liver.
ValenciaAges 18–65 - NCT06176885RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo and targeted therapy for MSS colorectal cancer
This trial tests adding immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy and targeted therapy for people with metastatic colorectal cancer that is MSS (microsatellite stable) and cannot be removed with surgery. It aims to see if this combination helps shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Jinhua, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06023758RecruitingPhase 2
Study of two drugs with or without chemo for HER2-positive stomach cancer
This study tests two new immunotherapy drugs (KN026 and KN046) with or without chemotherapy (XELOX) for people with a specific type of advanced stomach cancer that makes too much HER2 protein. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07805551RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
HDM2017 combination therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This study tests a new drug called HDM2017 in combination with other treatments for advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06547203RecruitingPhase 2
Cetuximab, irinotecan, and toripalimab for right-sided colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (cetuximab, irinotecan, and toripalimab) for people with advanced right-sided colon cancer that does not have certain gene mutations. It's for those whose cancer has gotten worse after standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT07775287RecruitingPhase 3
Petosemtamab plus chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This study tests a new drug called petosemtamab combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to one prior treatment. The trial aims to see if adding petosemtamab helps the cancer shrink or grow more slowly compared to adding a standard targeted therapy like cetuximab or bevacizumab.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06566755RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combo for a common type of colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of a new immunotherapy (cadonilimab) with standard chemotherapy (capecitabine, oxaliplatin) and bevacizumab for people with metastatic colorectal cancer that has a RAS mutation or is located on the right side of the colon. The goal is to see if this combination works better than the current standard of care as a first treatment.
Shenyang, LiaoningAges 18–75 - NCT06184698RecruitingPhase 2
Liposomal irinotecan, chemotherapy, and bevacizumab for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of liposomal irinotecan, two chemotherapy drugs (leucovorin and 5-fluorouracil), and bevacizumab as a second-line treatment for people with colorectal cancer that has spread and cannot be removed by surgery.

Targeted therapy for BRAF V600E mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests if combining three targeted drugs (cetuximab, encorafenib, and binimetinib) before surgery can shrink or control cancer in people with a specific BRAF V600E mutation and a stable (MSS) tumor. It focuses on colorectal cancer that is either already able to be removed or could become removable with treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,513 recruiting colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 (locally advanced or metastatic) 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 (locally advanced or metastatic) 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.
