MarseilleAges 18–80 - NCT05797077RecruitingPhase 3
After-surgery blood test–guided therapy for colon cancer liver spread
This Phase 3 trial tests whether an added “maintenance” treatment after liver surgery can help prevent colorectal cancer from coming back. It is only for people whose blood test (ctDNA) still shows signs of cancer after their operation.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05815082RecruitingPhase 3
ctDNA-guided chemo after liver surgery for colon cancer
This trial checks whether giving chemotherapy after surgery only for people whose blood test (ctDNA) shows no remaining cancer can help prevent the cancer from coming back. It is for people with colon cancer that has spread to the liver who had the tumor fully removed.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT05985109RecruitingPhase 2
KN 046 plus regorafenib for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs, KN 046 and regorafenib, in people with a type of advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to previous treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink or control the tumor.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06229340RecruitingPhase 2
Two drug combinations for advanced cancer with RAS mutations
This trial tests two different treatment combinations (leflunomide alone or with MEK inhibitor and hydroxychloroquine) in people with advanced cancer that has a RAS mutation and has not responded to at least two prior therapies.
Saint PetersburgAges 18–85 - NCT01479608Recruiting
Liver transplant for colon or rectal cancer liver spread
This trial studies whether a liver transplant can help people with colon or rectal cancer that has spread to the liver (but not elsewhere). It aims to improve outcomes by removing the diseased liver when the cancer has responded to chemotherapy and can still be controlled.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT03349762Recruiting
Huaier granules to help prevent colorectal cancer coming back
This study tests whether Huaier granules after surgery can lower the chance that colorectal cancer returns or spreads. It is for people who have recently had “radical” (complete) surgery for certain stages of colorectal cancer and are within about 2 months of that surgery.
Shijiazhuang, HebeiAges 18–75 - NCT07829081Recruiting
Watch-and-wait after immunotherapy for early-stage GI cancers
This study looks at whether some patients with early-stage stomach, colon, or rectal cancers that are mismatch repair-deficient (a genetic feature making them more likely to respond to immunotherapy) can safely avoid surgery and instead be monitored closely after treatment with immunotherapy. It aims to confirm if this watch-and-wait approach is as effective and helps patients avoid major operations.
BaselAges 18 years+ - NCT06524245Recruiting
Predicting Colorectal Cancer Recurrence with Portal Vein Blood
This study looks at blood from a special vein near your liver (portal vein) to find markers that might predict if colorectal cancer will come back. The goal is to create a better way to identify patients who may need closer monitoring after surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07775950Recruiting
Monitoring and treating colorectal cancer based on tumor DNA
This study looks at using a blood test to find cancer DNA and guide treatment for people with stage IV colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic pattern. The goal is to see if this approach can help monitor the cancer and personalize treatment.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07782164Recruiting
Irreversible electroporation for recurrent pelvic tumors
This study tests a new technique called irreversible electroporation (IRE) for treating pelvic tumors that have returned despite earlier treatment. IRE uses electrical pulses to destroy cancer cells without surgery, offering a potential option when other local treatments like surgery or radiation are not suitable.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - 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 - NCT07759921Recruiting
Mindfulness program for couples facing metastatic colorectal cancer
This study tests a mindfulness-based program for couples facing metastatic colorectal cancer. It aims to help reduce distress and improve coping for both patients and their partners.
Aurora, ColoradoAges 18–85 - NCT07722494RecruitingPhase 3
Investigational drug plus bevacizumab for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combined with a standard treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to earlier therapies. It aims to see if the combination can help slow the cancer's growth.
Wuhan, WuhanAges 18 years+ - NCT06207656RecruitingPhase 2
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.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT06520683RecruitingPhase 3
Immunotherapy after surgery for high-risk stage II colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether a drug called an immune checkpoint inhibitor (PD-1 blocker) can help lower the risk of cancer returning after surgery. It is for people with a specific type of colorectal cancer (dMMR or MSI-H) that had certain high-risk features.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT06685276RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (fruquintinib, chidamide, and sintilimab) for people with a specific type of metastatic colorectal cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. It aims to see if this combination is safe and effective.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06405139RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo combo (nanoliposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, capecitabine) before surgery for locally advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three chemotherapy drugs (nanoliposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine) given before surgery to shrink locally advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be treated with radiation. The goal is to make the tumor removable with a better chance of complete removal (R0 resection).
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT07551596RecruitingPhase 2
Two immunotherapy drugs for colorectal cancer with residual disease
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs to see if they can stop colorectal cancer from returning after standard treatment. It is for people who still have cancer DNA in their blood after surgery and/or chemotherapy, which means they are at high risk of the cancer coming back.
New Orleans, LouisianaAges 18 years+ - NCT07542262Enrolling by invitationPhase 2
Low-dose immunotherapy for advanced colorectal and stomach cancer
This study tests a lower dose of immunotherapy in patients with colorectal or stomach cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The cancer must have a specific genetic feature (MSI/dMMR). The goal is to see if this approach works well with fewer side effects.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06776757RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Sintilimab plus cetuximab and chemo for first-line advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (sintilimab), a targeted therapy (cetuximab), and chemotherapy as a first treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't spread or come back after earlier treatment. It's for people whose tumors have certain genetic markers (RAS/BRAF wild-type) and show signs of immune activity (PD-L1 or CD8+ TILs).
