Bydgoszcz, Kuyavian-Pomeranian VoivodeshipAges 18 years+ - NCT06252649RecruitingPhase 3
Study of new drug combo for KRAS G12C colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (sotorasib, panitumumab, and FOLFIRI) against the standard treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread. It's for people whose tumor has a specific KRAS G12C mutation and who have not had chemotherapy before for advanced disease.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07254910Recruiting
Study to boost colon cancer screening in American Indians
This study tests a new program to help American Indian adults get screened for colorectal cancer. If you qualify, you may get support and reminders to complete a simple stool test at home.
Oklahoma City, OklahomaAges 45–75 - NCT06562192RecruitingPhase 1
Testing a radioactive drug for advanced pancreatic, lung, breast, and colorectal cancers
This trial tests a new radioactive drug (177Lu-NNS309) for people with advanced pancreatic, lung, breast, or colorectal cancer that has not responded to prior treatments. It aims to see if the drug can target and shrink tumors.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18–100 - 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 - NCT07525206RecruitingPhase 3
New drug combination versus standard treatment for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether a new drug called telisotuzumab adizutecan, given with bevacizumab, works better than the current standard treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread and stopped responding to previous chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new combination helps patients live longer.
East Brunswick, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT06685497Recruiting
Digital app for better recovery after colorectal cancer surgery
This study tests a digital app (the COLORECTUM+ system) to help improve recovery after colorectal cancer surgery. It is designed for patients treated at Renji Hospital in Shanghai.
ShanghaiAges 18 years+ - NCT07436637Recruiting
Blood test for colorectal cancer screening
This trial is testing a blood test called Guardant Shield to see if it can effectively screen for colorectal cancer (a common cancer of the colon or rectum). If you're between 45 and 85 and overdue for a screening, this test could be a simpler alternative to colonoscopy or stool tests.
Miami, FloridaAges 45–85 - NCT07133750RecruitingPhase 2
PM8002 plus chemo for untreated metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination therapy (PM8002 plus chemotherapy) for people with metastatic colorectal cancer who have not had prior treatment. It may be an option if your cancer is not MSI-H/dMMR and you are in good overall health.
