The goal is to see if this personalized approach can better control the cancer and improve outcomes.
ShanghaiAges 18–75 - NCT06850688Recruiting
Remote monitoring after colorectal surgery
This trial tests a remote monitoring system to keep an eye on patients after colorectal surgery. It aims to see if this helps recovery and reduces hospital readmissions.

Ivonescimab and chemotherapy for colorectal cancer that spread only to the liver
This trial tests a new drug called ivonescimab combined with chemotherapy for people whose colorectal cancer has spread only to the liver and cannot be surgically removed right away. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink the tumors enough to allow surgery or other treatments.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT06855355Enrolling by invitation
Can CBM588 help prevent colon polyp return?
This study tests a dietary supplement called CBM588 to see if it helps prevent new colorectal polyps from coming back. You may be eligible if you have had polyps removed before and recently found new ones.
Kaohsiung City, TaiwanAges 18 years+ - NCT06752031Recruiting
Improving hospital-to-home transition after colorectal surgery
This study aims to improve the process of transitioning from hospital to home after colorectal surgery in older adults. It tests a new care coordination approach to help patients recover safely and avoid complications.
Salem, MassachusettsAges 65 years+ - NCT06636864Enrolling by invitation
Morphine injection for better recovery after colon cancer surgery
This trial tests if giving a single injection of morphine into the spinal fluid can improve how well you feel and recover after laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer. The morphine is given through a spinal needle before surgery, and it may help control pain during and after the procedure.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06512480Recruiting
Robotic colorectal surgery with the Hugo RAS platform
This trial is testing a new robotic system (Hugo RAS) for planned colorectal surgeries, such as for colon or rectal cancer or diverticulosis. It aims to see how well the robot works alongside enhanced recovery programs to help you heal faster.
Elche, AlicanteAges 18 years+ - NCT06568679Recruiting
Improving detection and treatment of early-onset colorectal cancer
This study aims to find better ways to detect and treat colorectal cancer in younger adults (ages 18–49). It includes people with both early-stage and advanced cancer.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18–49 - NCT06279351RecruitingPhase 2
Thalidomide plus standard chemo and cetuximab for left-sided colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug thalidomide to standard chemotherapy plus cetuximab can work better for people with advanced left-sided colorectal cancer that hasn't been treated before. If you have a specific gene type (RAS/BRAF wild-type) and are in generally good health, this study may be an option.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06282445RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for first-line metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether adding the immunotherapy drug adebrelimab to standard chemotherapy plus bevacizumab can help people with a specific type of metastatic colorectal cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. It is for patients whose tumors are microsatellite stable (MSS) or have normal mismatch repair (pMMR).

Regorafenib with or without targeted immunotherapy and radiation for spread colon cancer
This Phase 2 study tests whether taking regorafenib alone or with immunotherapy (toripalimab) and a lower-dose radiation plan can better control metastatic colon or rectal cancer that has MSS/pMMR. It may help by combining cancer-blocking medicine with immune activation and focused radiation to metastatic spots.

Living donor liver transplant for unresectable colon cancer spread
This trial looks at using a living donor liver transplant for people whose colon or rectal cancer has spread to the liver in a way that can’t be removed with standard surgery. It may help if you might otherwise have limited options because your liver surgery would be too risky.

- Are there clinical trials for colorectal?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 1,202 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.
