Recruiting studies
- NCT06955767Recruiting
Looking for a new blood test to find colorectal cancer early

Testing a tiny device to find best treatments for liver tumors
This study tests a tiny device that is placed in your liver tumor during surgery. It checks how well different chemotherapy drugs work on your specific cancer, which may help your doctor choose the best treatment for you.
Lake Success, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06401174Enrolling by invitation
Patient navigation for colorectal cancer screening
This study tests a patient navigation program to help people who are due for colorectal cancer screening get the test they need. It connects you with a guide to make scheduling and completing screening easier.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 45–75 - NCT05894694RecruitingPhase 4
Testing Compound Kushen injection for advanced colon cancer survival
This trial studies whether Compound Kushen injection can improve survival in people with advanced colorectal cancer. It’s aimed at people starting first-line treatment, and only includes certain cancer and health situations to keep results clear.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07247396RecruitingPhase 1
CEA CAR-T therapy after surgery for colorectal cancer spread
This trial tests a special immune cell therapy (CAR-T) that targets a protein called CEA on cancer cells. It is for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the lining of the belly (peritoneum) and who have already had surgery to remove as much of the spread as possible.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT06521866RecruitingPhase 2
Study of serplulimab plus standard therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests an immunotherapy drug (serplulimab) combined with targeted therapy, chemo, and radiation as a first treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread and cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if this combination can help control the cancer.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18 years+ - NCT06885385RecruitingPhase 2
Study of JS207 with or without JS015 and chemo for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug combination (JS207 with or without JS015) along with chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not spread to other parts of the body. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps shrink tumors.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06097637Recruiting
Removing large stalked colon polyps: a comparison of two methods
This study compares two ways to remove large, stalked polyps in the colon. One method uses water to lift the polyp before cutting it, and the other uses a small metal clip and a hot snare. The goal is to find which technique is safer and more effective.

Capecitabine plus lenvatinib for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two oral drugs, capecitabine and lenvatinib, in people with advanced colorectal cancer that has stopped responding to three common chemotherapy drugs. It aims to see if this new combination can help shrink tumors or slow cancer growth.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,211 recruiting colorectal 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 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 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.
