Recruiting studies
- NCT06698146Recruiting
Liver transplant for colorectal cancer that spread to the liver
This trial tests a special approach for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver: first removing the liver tumor, then doing a partial liver transplant, and later removing more liver tissue. The goal is to see if this can help people who otherwise have limited options.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT07224724Recruiting
Exosome liquid biopsy for colorectal cancer spread
This study uses a blood test to detect if colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver has also spread to other parts of the body. It may help doctors better understand how the cancer is moving and guide treatment decisions.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06848465RecruitingPhase 1
Radiation plus chemo-immunotherapy for colon cancer with liver spread
This trial tests a combination of low-dose radiation, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors and improve outcomes.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07044362Recruiting
Histotripsy plus chemo vs. chemo alone for advanced liver-only colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether adding histotripsy—a non-invasive ultrasound treatment that destroys liver tumors—to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may be an option if your cancer is mainly in the liver and you are starting or have recently had chemotherapy.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07177742Recruiting
Study of protein in blood to predict liver spread of colon cancer
This study looks at whether a substance in your blood (called PRDX1, found in tiny particles called exosomes) can help predict if colon cancer will spread to the liver after surgery. It may help doctors understand who needs more monitoring or treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 1.6 years–6.7 years - NCT07310537Recruiting
Liquid biopsy trial for colorectal cancer liver metastases
This study tests whether a simple blood sample from your finger can detect tumor DNA as well as a standard blood draw. It is designed for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and hasn't responded to treatment.
Rotterdam, South HollandAges 21 years+ - 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+ - NCT02917707Recruiting
Study for colon cancer that has spread to the liver
This study focuses on people with colon cancer (CRC) that has spread to the liver. It looks at factors that may affect liver metastases and could help doctors better understand who may benefit from future treatments.
Ganzhou, JiangxiAges 18–75 - NCT07159048Recruiting
Heat therapy for liver tumors
This trial tests a heat-based treatment for liver cancer tumors that uses multiple methods to destroy cancer cells. It may help people with liver tumors that haven't spread and who are healthy enough for treatment.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT07117435RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted chemo into liver for colorectal cancer spread
This trial is testing a new way to give the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel directly into the liver (through a tiny tube) along with standard systemic treatment for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to see if this targeted approach works better than standard treatment alone.
Lishui, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT04668872Recruiting
Biopsy after liver radiation to see tumor cell changes
This trial gives radiation to liver tumors and then takes a small tissue sample (biopsy) to look for changes in the cancer cells after treatment. The goal is to learn what the radiation is doing inside the tumor, which may help improve future treatments.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06356584RecruitingPhase 2
A drug combination with or without radiation for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combo (fruquintinib and sintilimab) with or without radiation for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and has not responded to earlier treatments.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT03494946Recruiting
Liver transplant vs chemotherapy for colon cancer liver spread
This trial compares liver transplantation to standard chemotherapy for people with colon or rectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be removed surgically. It looks at whether transplant can help patients live longer or better than chemotherapy in the right patients.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT06794086RecruitingPhase 3
SBRT and immunotherapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases
This trial combines targeted radiation (SBRT) with an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) to treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and can't be removed by surgery. It aims to help shrink or control tumors in patients whose cancer has a normal DNA repair system (pMMR/MSS).
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT04796818Recruiting
MRI scan to track response in colorectal liver metastases
This study uses a special MRI scan to see how colorectal cancer in the liver responds to planned chemotherapy before and after surgery. It may help doctors better measure treatment success and plan care.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT05314400Recruiting
MRI with contrast for metastatic colon cancer liver lesions
This trial studies an MRI technique using a contrast dye (gadopetate/gadolinium) to better look at liver lesions that may be colon cancer spread. It may help doctors more accurately assess which liver tumors are present and guide next steps.
London, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT05240950RecruitingPhase 1
CAR-T cell therapy for colorectal cancer in the liver
This Phase 1 study tests an anti-CEA CAR-T cell treatment for people whose colorectal cancer spread to the liver but has been surgically removed with no visible remaining tumor. It aims to see if the treatment can better prevent the cancer from coming back, especially when early warning tests suggest leftover cancer cells.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT07365527Recruiting
Ultrasound and Tumor Response in Colorectal Liver Metastases
This study is testing a new way to use ultrasound to help treat colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It may help doctors see how tumors respond to treatment.
CopenhagenAges 18 years+ - NCT04622423Recruiting
Advanced therapies for colon or pancreas liver metastases
This study tests advanced treatments for cancer that has spread to the liver, either from colon cancer or pancreatic cancer. It may help by targeting liver tumors using treatment plans and, for some participants, liver tissue samples.
Milan, MilanAges 18 years+ - NCT06111105Recruiting
Comparing blood tests to guide colon cancer treatment
This study compares different blood tests to find the best way to detect tiny bits of cancer DNA after surgery for stage III colorectal cancer. It aims to help doctors decide if additional chemotherapy is needed to prevent the cancer from coming back.
Graz, StyriaAges 18 years+ - NCT07349043RecruitingPhase 1
Spray chemotherapy for colon cancer spread in the belly
This trial tests a new way to give chemotherapy by spraying it into the belly during a minimally invasive surgery. It is for people whose colon or rectal cancer has spread inside the belly (peritoneal metastasis) but not to other organs.
Hangzhou, Other (Non U.s.)Ages 18–75 - NCT07409805RecruitingPhase 1
Vaccine trial for advanced colorectal cancer with liver spread
This trial tests a new vaccine (YMN-136) for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and hasn't responded to at least three prior treatments. The goal is to see if the vaccine can help control the cancer.
Chengdu, SichuanAges 18–75 - NCT06126419Recruiting
High-dose insulin for liver function after surgery
This trial tests if high-dose insulin can help your liver work better and heal faster after a major liver surgery for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver.
