Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02869503Recruiting
Colorectal cancer registry study
This study builds a database of people with colorectal cancer. It may help doctors learn from real-world information to improve future care.
Marseille, Bouches du RhoneAges 18–95 - NCT03303833Recruiting
Lynch syndrome study following people over time
This study follows adults with Lynch syndrome (an inherited gene change) using regular questionnaires and tracking health over time. It may help researchers understand how the condition progresses and improve care for people with these gene mutations.
WageningenAges 18–80 - NCT03919461RecruitingPhase 2
Preventing colon and rectal cancer spread after surgery
This Phase 2 study tests medicines given around the time of colon or rectal cancer surgery to help lower the chance the cancer will later spread to other parts of the body. If you are planned for curative (potentially curable) surgery and have no signs of spread yet, the trial may help prevent future metastases.
AfulaAges 20–80 - NCT04714957Recruiting
Personalized study for cancer spread in the belly lining
This trial studies people whose cancer has spread to the lining of the abdomen (the “belly lining”), including cancers from the digestive tract or ovaries. You may be asked to join because the study aims to learn how to better match care to different patterns of this belly lining cancer spread.
LyonAges 18 years+ - NCT05185245Recruiting
Liver transplant for colorectal cancer spread to the liver
This study looks at whether a liver transplant can help people whose colorectal cancer has spread to the liver but cannot be removed by surgery. It also checks whether certain cancer features, treatment history, and blood/health status make transplant safer or more effective.
BolognaAges 18–73 - NCT04991948RecruitingPhase 1
Testing pembrolizumab after CYAD-101 plus FOLFOX in colon cancer
This early-phase study tests whether adding pembrolizumab after CYAD-101 and FOLFOX chemotherapy can help treat metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It is mainly looking for safety and signs of how well the treatment works in people whose cancer has not responded to prior therapy.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 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 - NCT04938986Recruiting
Testing a tumor marker to predict colon cancer relapse risk
This study looks at whether a lab test on your tumor can better predict the chance that non-metastatic colon cancer will come back after surgery. Researchers will compare relapse risk using the Immunoscore® test to help guide follow-up and treatment decisions.
MarseilleAges 18–80 - NCT03972956Recruiting
Collecting samples during cancer or surgery visits
This trial looks at collecting (taking) medical samples from people who need surgery for colorectal cancer, stomach (gastric) cancer, or a non-cancer condition. It may help researchers better understand these diseases and improve how treatment is planned.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–80 - NCT05528783Recruiting
Testing FIT-DNA to guide follow-up after colon cancer surgery
This trial checks a stool test called FIT-DNA after colorectal (colon) cancer surgery. It aims to see whether this test can help doctors monitor for recurrence during follow-up and decide how closely to watch.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–80 - NCT04527861Recruiting
Minimally invasive single-incision surgery for colon cancer
This trial compares a single-incision laparoscopic operation versus the usual laparoscopic operation for colorectal (colon or “high rectum”) cancer. It looks at cancer outcomes and may help determine which approach is safer and works better for the right patients.
Lanzhou, GansuAges 18–85 - NCT05579353Recruiting
Study stool and blood markers in colorectal cancer treatment planning
This study looks at special tiny cell-signal particles (called exosomes) and related pathways to understand colorectal cancer. Your results from samples may help researchers learn how these signals relate to the disease after surgery.
Jinan, LixiaAges 18–80 - NCT05236972RecruitingPhase 3
PD-1 antibody after colon cancer surgery for dMMR stage III
This phase 3 trial studies a PD-1 antibody medicine given after surgery to help prevent stage III colon cancer from coming back. It is specifically for people whose tumor is mismatch repair–defective (dMMR) or MSI-H, which may make the cancer more responsive to immune-based treatment.
GuangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT05676190Recruiting
Cell therapy using your own immune cells for colorectal cancer
This trial studies an immune cell treatment made from your own blood cells to treat colorectal cancer that has spread or progressed. You may be eligible if you have stage III–IV disease that can be measured on scans and if standard treatments have not worked or couldn’t be tolerated.
Chongqing, Chongqing MunicipalityAges 18–70 - NCT04014530RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing pembrolizumab plus ataluren for metastatic dMMR or pMMR cancer
This early-phase trial tests pembrolizumab combined with ataluren for people with metastatic colorectal cancer that has either dMMR or pMMR, and for metastatic dMMR endometrial cancer. The goal is to see whether this combination can shrink tumors or improve outcomes for cancers with specific mismatch repair (MMR) features.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT05725200RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized treatment plan for metastatic colon or rectal cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests an individualized treatment chosen from your tumor’s lab testing (genetic and RNA profile plus a drug-sensitivity test from your tumor cells). It may help by matching you to targeted anti-cancer drugs that are most likely to work for your specific cancer.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT05848609Recruiting
Quality of life study for older adults having robotic colon surgery
This study looks at how older people feel and function after robotic surgery for colorectal cancer. It may help doctors understand what to expect and how to better support quality of life during recovery.
BrusselsAges 70 years+ - NCT05794971RecruitingPhase 3
Regorafenib with irinotecan beads for colorectal liver spread
This Phase 3 trial tests whether adding a pill called regorafenib to irinotecan “drug-eluting” beads placed in the liver can shrink colorectal cancer that has spread mainly to the liver after standard chemotherapy stops working. If you qualify, it may offer a new combination approach for controlling liver tumors.
