Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04912765RecruitingPhase 2
New immune vaccine plus nivolumab for liver cancer
This trial studies whether an individualized “neoantigen” cancer vaccine given to immune cells (dendritic cells) plus nivolumab can improve outcomes in people with liver cancer and/or colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. It focuses on tumors that can be removed with curative surgery (with or without local ablation) and on people with good enough liver and overall health.
SingaporeAges 21 years+ - NCT04967183Recruiting
Compare a stool blood test versus colonoscopy follow-up after precancer removal
This study compares two ways of checking for colorectal cancer risk after advanced polyps are removed. It may help determine whether a stool test can safely replace some colonoscopy surveillance for certain people.
OurenseAges 50–65 - NCT05286814RecruitingPhase 2
Pump-delivered therapy plus chemo for liver-metastatic cancers
This phase 2 study tests a liver-targeted medicine delivered through a special implanted pump, combined with standard chemo, for cancers that spread mainly to the liver. It may help control tumor growth in the liver and improve outcomes compared with standard treatment alone.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT05346757Recruiting
Test stool DNA changes to screen or find colorectal cancer
This study checks whether a stool test that looks for tiny genetic signals can help detect colorectal cancer (or find it again after prior findings). You may be asked to provide a stool sample around the time you get a colonoscopy.
BarcelonaAges 18–80 - NCT05426135Recruiting
AI tool to assess cancer risk and guide care
This study tests an artificial intelligence (AI) system that uses your health information and medical images to better judge cancer risk and support diagnosis and treatment decisions. It may help doctors make more consistent assessments by combining clinical records, imaging, and other lab-style data.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05485077Recruiting
Study of colorectal cancer screening in adults 40+
This study follows people age 40 and older to see how well colorectal cancer screening works in everyday community care. You may answer risk and follow-up questions over time, and the study looks for any cancer diagnoses that happen outside the study hospitals.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 40 years+ - NCT05489211RecruitingPhase 2
Testing a cancer drug for advanced solid tumors
This Phase 2 study tests the drug Dato-DXd (alone or with other cancer medicines) in people with advanced solid tumors. It looks for tumor shrinkage and how safely the treatment can be given.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–130 - NCT05495776Recruiting
Study checks how often Lynch syndrome happens in colon cancer
This registry study looks at how many people with colon cancer also have Lynch syndrome, an inherited condition that can affect cancer risk. If you enroll, your care team collects basic information from your diagnosis to better estimate how common it is.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT05577143Recruiting
Blood test screening for colorectal cancer
This study checks whether a blood test can help identify colorectal cancer or precancerous growths. You would have a planned colonoscopy, and researchers compare the blood test results to what the colonoscopy finds.
LilleAges 18–75 - NCT05649072Recruiting
Mobile mammogram screening study for women with family cancer risk
This study looks at how well mobile mammogram units and video/phone genetics counseling (“telegenetics”) can help women who may have inherited cancer risk. If you’re scheduled for a mammogram through the Project VALET mobile units, this may be an easy option to learn about and address your risk.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05692024RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Coffee and gut bacteria study after colon or rectal cancer
This early-phase study tests whether a coffee-related approach can change gut bacteria and blood “metabolites” after treatment for stage I–III colon or rectal cancer. The goal is to learn if these changes could help improve health after standard cancer treatment.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 18 years+ - NCT05694559Recruiting
Genetic risk screening and counseling for Black adults
