Recruiting studies
- NCT05967689RecruitingPhase 2
Zipalertinib for lung cancer with EGFR exon 20 mutations
This Phase 2 trial tests zipalertinib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) that has specific EGFR mutations, especially “exon 20 insertions.” It may help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth, including in some people with brain metastases.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05970302RecruitingPhase 2
XELOX, bevacizumab, and immunotherapy for metastatic colon cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies a combination treatment (XELOX plus bevacizumab plus an immunotherapy drug) for people with metastatic colon cancer that has certain lab features (MSS/pMMR and RAS-mutated). It aims to see how well the treatment works as a first treatment when the cancer cannot be removed with surgery.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT05984485RecruitingPhase 3
Surgery vs chemo before surgery for low-risk rectal cancer
This trial compares two approaches for low-risk locally advanced rectal cancer: going straight to surgery (TME) versus receiving chemotherapy before surgery. The goal is to see if upfront surgery works just as well, sparing patients from chemotherapy side effects.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT05989828RecruitingPhase 1
Engineered immune cells for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial tests a personalized treatment where your own immune cells are modified to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a specific marker called NY-ESO-1. It is for people with triple-negative breast cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06005493RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of AZD5863 for advanced stomach, esophagus, or pancreatic cancer
This trial is testing an investigational drug called AZD5863 for people whose stomach, esophagus, or pancreatic cancer has spread and hasn't responded to at least one previous treatment. The study aims to see if targeting a protein called Claudin 18.2 on tumor cells can help shrink or slow the cancer.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06024837Recruiting
Testing spectral CT for colorectal cancer spread to liver or belly
This study tests a new type of CT scan (spectral CT) to see how well it detects colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver or belly lining. It may help doctors better plan surgery to remove all the cancer.
Saint-EtienneAges Any age - NCT06040541RecruitingPhase 1
Study of RMC-9805 for KRAS G12D solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental pill (RMC-9805) for people with solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. It's for those who have already tried other treatments and need new options.
Sacramento, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06081517Recruiting
Study of fairness in genetic cancer testing
This study looks at how well precision medicine (treatments based on your tumor's genes) is used for people with cancer. Researchers want to see if there are differences in who gets this kind of testing and treatment, so they can make it more fair for everyone.
Indianapolis, IndianaAges 18 years+ - NCT06105684RecruitingPhase 2
Low-dose capecitabine for advanced breast cancer
This trial tests a lower dose of the chemotherapy drug capecitabine in people with advanced breast cancer that is HER2 negative. It aims to see if this gentler dose works well, especially for older or frailer patients who may have more difficulty with standard treatment.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 60 years+ - NCT06125080RecruitingPhase 2
Study of utidelone plus tirelizumab and bevacizumab for advanced triple-negative breast cancer
This trial is testing a combination of three drugs (utidelone, tirelizumab, and bevacizumab) for people with advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer that has not responded to at least one prior chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow the disease.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–70 - NCT06130995RecruitingPhase 1
Relugolix and enzalutamide for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a combination of two oral drugs, relugolix and enzalutamide, in men with high-risk prostate cancer that hasn't spread to distant parts of the body. The goal is to see if this treatment can help control the cancer before or alongside local therapies like surgery or radiation.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 18 years+ - NCT06147570RecruitingPhase 2
Study of HS-10365 for RET fusion-positive lung cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called HS-10365 for people with advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change called a RET fusion. The drug aims to block the growth of cancer cells with this mutation.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06171750RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ANK-101 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ANK-101, injected directly into tumors to help fight advanced solid tumors that have spread or can't be treated with standard therapies. It may be an option if you have a tumor that can be reached for injection.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT06174987RecruitingPhase 3
Extended access study for patients benefiting from DS drugs
This study allows people who are already in a Daiichi Sankyo trial and getting benefit from the study drug to continue receiving it safely. It monitors long-term safety for those who have not had their cancer worsen.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06202001RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Three-drug combo for metastatic colorectal cancer as second treatment
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (irinotecan, TAS-102, and bevacizumab) for people with metastatic colorectal cancer that has already been treated with oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this three-drug combination works better as a second treatment option.
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT06205849RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a new drug and procedure for advanced pancreatic cancer
This trial tests a new drug called mitazalimab injected directly into the tumor, combined with a special electrical procedure that kills cancer cells. It is for people whose pancreatic cancer has not spread but cannot be removed by surgery.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06208826RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy maintenance after surgery for head and neck cancer
This trial looks at whether continuing immunotherapy can help keep cancer from coming back in people with head and neck cancer who had a good response to chemo-immunotherapy before surgery. You would have already had surgery, and now the study tests a maintenance treatment to strengthen your immune system's fight against any remaining cancer cells.
Tianjin, Tianjin MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06208397Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,557 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.
