Liver-only metastatic colon cancer trial using targeted chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests different ways to deliver chemotherapy for colon cancer that has spread only to the liver (with limited possible tiny lung spots). It looks at whether the treatment plan improves outcomes compared with another chemotherapy approach, using oxaliplatin and LV5FU2 (with or without irinotecan) plus an added targeted medicine.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT03093116RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Repotrectinib for ALK, ROS1, or NTRK tumor gene changes
This trial studies repotrectinib, a targeted medicine, in people with advanced solid tumors that have specific gene rearrangements (ALK, ROS1, or NTRK). It may help shrink tumors or control cancer growth based on the patient’s tumor genetic result.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 12 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+ - NCT07433673RecruitingPhase 2
Gemcitabine, cisplatin, nab-paclitaxel, and cemiplimab for locally advanced bile duct cancer
This trial tests a combination of four drugs to see if they shrink locally advanced bile duct or gallbladder cancer that cannot be removed surgically. It is for people who have not had prior treatment for this cancer.

Predicting ADC treatment response with PET scans in advanced breast cancer
This study uses special PET scans to see if a type of targeted therapy called an anti-TROP2 ADC will work well for your advanced breast cancer. The therapy is already part of your standard care; the scans help doctors understand how your tumor responds.

MSK-TCR5 Cell Therapy for RAS G12D Solid Tumors
This study tests a new type of cell therapy called MSK-TCR5, designed to fight solid cancers (like pancreatic, lung, or colon cancer) that have a specific RAS G12D mutation. The therapy uses your own immune cells trained to recognize and attack cancer cells with this mutation.
Basking Ridge, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06883084Enrolling by invitation
How lymph node changes affect rectal cancer outcomes
This trial looks at how much the lymph nodes respond to chemoradiation before surgery in people with locally advanced rectal cancer. It aims to understand if that response can predict long-term results and guide future treatment choices.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer (locally advanced or metastatic)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 5,583 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.
