This trial studies a new drug called WEF-001 for people with advanced cancers that have a KRAS mutation. It aims to see if the drug is safe and shrinks tumors when used alone.
Dallas, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT06934018Recruiting
Surgical margin width for liver-only colorectal cancer spread
This trial tests whether a wider surgical margin (at least 7mm) during liver surgery improves survival and reduces cancer return in patients whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver but not elsewhere. It aims to remove all visible liver tumors with a safe margin.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT07154173Recruiting
Gut bacteria study in metastatic colorectal cancer
This study looks at gut bacteria in people with colorectal cancer that has spread (metastatic). It aims to find patterns in the bacteria that may help doctors choose better treatments.

Short radiation plus drugs for MSS rectal cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation therapy followed by a combination of chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and a pain-relief medication, compared to the standard approach. It is for people with a certain type of rectal cancer that has not spread.
Fuzhou, FujianAges 18–75 - NCT05234177Recruiting
Blood test to track colorectal cancer after surgery
This study looks at a blood “DNA” test to see if it can help monitor colorectal cancer after surgery. It may benefit you by improving how doctors track cancer during routine follow-up visits.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT06962670Recruiting
Cancer risk study using digital and molecular markers
This study uses a smartphone app and biological markers to predict cancer risk. It is testing whether digital and molecular data can help identify cancer earlier, especially in women with a history of certain cancers.
Please Refer to Project Homepage For Details (see Link Below), BavariaAges 18 years+ - NCT07130656Recruiting
AI for detecting deep infections after planned colorectal surgery
This trial is testing an AI system to help catch deep infections after planned colorectal surgery. If you had a planned operation on your colon or rectum without a stoma or an active infection at that time, you may be eligible.
Granollers, BarcelonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07129512Recruiting
Ultrasound vs clips to control bleeding in colon cancer surgery
This study compares two ways to stop bleeding during minimally invasive colon cancer surgery: using a special ultrasound device or standard surgical clips. It aims to see which method works better and is safer for patients like you.
SeoulAges 19–80 - NCT05999370Recruiting
Pre-surgery exercise and nutrition for older colorectal cancer patients
This trial tests whether exercise and nutrition support before surgery can help older colorectal cancer patients who are weak or malnourished. If you are 65 or older, scheduled for colorectal cancer surgery, and have trouble walking or eating well, this study may be for you.
Montreal, QuebecAges 65 years+ - NCT07116668Enrolling by invitation
Colovac device study for colon surgery patients
This trial tests a device called Colovac that protects the connection made during colon surgery for cancer. It may help patients who need a temporary colostomy bag heal better.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 22 years+ - NCT06965335Recruiting
Early-onset colorectal cancer study
This study looks at colorectal cancer that starts early in life (ages 18–40). It compares it to the same cancer in people over 60 to find differences. You can join if you have had colorectal cancer and can provide a sample of your tumor.
Milan, MilanoAges 18–40 - NCT07114601RecruitingPhase 1
Study of LY4257496 for people with GRPR-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, LY4257496, in people with certain types of cancer that have a protein called GRPR on their cells. The study aims to see if the drug can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07106359Recruiting
Learning about Lynch syndrome genetic services for families
This study tests a program to help families talk about genetic services for Lynch syndrome. It aims to support people who may be at risk but haven't yet had genetic counseling or testing.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT07114627Recruiting
Capecitabine and oxaliplatin study for cancer patients
This study looks at how your genes affect the way your body handles the chemotherapy drug capecitabine when it's taken with oxaliplatin. The goal is to understand if certain genetic differences can impact drug levels, which may help personalize treatment in the future.
RotterdamAges 18 years+ - NCT06972160Recruiting
Boosting colorectal cancer screening in Barcelos/Esposende
This study looks at ways to help more people get screened for colorectal cancer. If you're between 50 and 74 and haven't had certain screenings recently, you may be able to join.

Montreal, QuebecAges 18–90 - NCT07094204RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ASP5834 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS changes

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for colorectal?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,199 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.
