Amivantamab for advanced colon or rectal cancer with specific tumor traits
This Phase 1/2 study tests amivantamab alone or combined with standard chemotherapy to treat advanced or metastatic colon or rectal cancer. You may be able to join if your tumor has the right genetic profile (typically “wild-type” for certain genes and no HER2 amplification) and your cancer has measurable or biopsy-able lesions.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT06911970Recruiting

This study compares two ways of closing the belly after emergency colorectal surgery to see which one better prevents hernias. If you need this type of surgery, you may be able to join.
Girona, CataloniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06957626Recruiting
Predicting polyp return after removal
This study aims to develop a tool using gut bacteria and metabolites to predict if high-risk colon polyps will come back after removal. If you are between 40 and 75 and have had certain types of colon polyps removed, you may be able to help us build better prediction methods.
BeijingAges 40–75 - NCT07636174Enrolling by invitation
Text reminders to help you get colorectal cancer screening
This study tests whether text messages can help you remember and complete colorectal cancer screening tests like FIT or colonoscopy. You'll receive reminder texts before and after your doctor's visit to encourage you to get screened.
Philadelphia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07581912RecruitingPhase 2
Fulzerasib Plus Cetuximab for Advanced Colorectal Cancer With KRAS G12C
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (fulzerasib and cetuximab) given before surgery to shrink locally advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic mutation called KRAS G12C. The goal is to help make the cancer easier to remove surgically and improve outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT04627376Recruiting
Program to help prevent cancer-related weight and muscle loss
This trial tests a “multimodal” program meant to help people with cancer avoid developing cachexia, a condition that causes unwanted weight and muscle loss. It may help you stay stronger and maintain weight if you are not yet in advanced or rapidly worsening stages.
LimassolAges 18 years+ - NCT07611266Recruiting
Predicting colorectal adenoma recurrence using combined medicine approach
This study helps predict which patients with colorectal adenomas (pre-cancerous growths) are at higher risk of them coming back or turning into cancer. Researchers will use both Western medical tests and Traditional Chinese Medicine patterns to create a prediction tool that may guide your follow-up care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06974500Recruiting
Bowel stimulation before ileostomy closure surgery
This study tests a stimulation program for the bowel loop before surgery to close an ileostomy. It may help your bowel get ready and improve recovery after the procedure.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06775951Recruiting
Colonoscopy use: a look at its impact
This trial studies how well colonoscopies are used in normal care. It aims to understand the medical and economic effects of doing colonoscopies for the right reasons.
BolognaAges 18 years+ - NCT05985954RecruitingPhase 1
Ulixertinib with cetuximab for colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether the drug ulixertinib, combined with cetuximab (and sometimes encorafenib), can help people with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer who have already tried EGFR or BRAF-targeted therapy. It aims to find new treatment options for these patients.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT07189871RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
177Lu-BetaBart for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new radioactive drug, 177Lu-BetaBart, for people with certain advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to other treatments. The goal is to see if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Dothan, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05051046Recruiting
Screening colonoscopy with hypnosis for colorectal cancer
This trial studies whether using hypnosis during a screening colonoscopy can help people better tolerate the procedure and complete it comfortably. It’s for adults who are scheduled for a routine screening colonoscopy and meet specific safety and communication requirements.
AngersAges 18–100 - NCT07630961RecruitingPhase 1
New PET Imaging Scans for Advanced Solid Tumors
This trial tests two new radioactive imaging scans (called PET scans) designed to better detect certain advanced cancers like pancreatic, lung, breast, colon, or soft-tissue tumors. The goal is to see if these scans help doctors find and track cancer more accurately than standard imaging.
Chuo Ku, TokyoAges 18 years+ - NCT07106034RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a new combo therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (ONGERICIMAB and TORIPALIMAB) for people with a specific type of colorectal cancer that did not respond to first treatment. It aims to see if this new approach can help shrink or control the cancer.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07255664RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
TIL therapy for advanced colorectal or prostate cancer
This trial tests a new type of immunotherapy that uses your own white blood cells (TILs) to fight advanced colorectal or prostate cancer. You will have surgery to remove a tumor, then your TIL cells are grown in a lab and given back to you along with other treatments to boost your immune system.
FrankfurtAges 18 years+ - NCT05706779RecruitingPhase 2
Encorafenib plus cetuximab before surgery for BRAF-mutated colon cancer
This trial tests whether giving encorafenib and cetuximab before surgery can shrink or control BRAF-mutated colon or upper rectal cancer and make surgery more effective. It also checks whether this approach is safe and helps patients do better overall.
ParisAges 18 years+ - NCT06226857RecruitingPhase 3
Anti-EGFR for left-sided, RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether anti-EGFR therapy works better for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread, whose tumors do not have certain gene mutations (RAS wild-type). It is for those who have not yet had treatment for metastatic disease.
MoscowAges 18–99 - NCT06822634Recruiting
Advanced imaging for rectal cancer treatment response

Cetuximab beta plus fruquintinib with or without immunotherapy for first-line advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two targeted drugs (cetuximab beta and fruquintinib) with or without an immunotherapy drug for people with a specific type of advanced colorectal cancer that has not been treated before. It aims to see if this approach is safe and effective for those whose tumors have certain genetic markers (RAS and BRAF wild type).

Romiplostim N01 Plus ATRA for Low Platelets After Gut Cancer
This trial tests a combination of two medicines (Romiplostim N01 and ATRA) to raise dangerously low platelet counts that sometimes persist after chemotherapy for digestive cancers. If your platelets stay low even after previous platelet-raising treatments, this study may help.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal cancer prevention?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 103 recruiting colorectal cancer prevention 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 prevention 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 prevention 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.
