Below are recruiting digestive system neoplasms clinical trials, each written for real people, not researchers. We’re tracking 37 recruiting studies, each written for real people, not researchers, below.
Recruiting studies
- NCT04221893Recruiting
Radiation therapy for metastatic gastrointestinal cancers
This trial tests whether adding radiation therapy to your current immunotherapy can help control cancer that has spread in the digestive system. It aims to improve symptoms and possibly slow the cancer's growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07283939Recruiting
Testing a tool to adjust chemo doses and reduce treatment delays
This trial tests a computer algorithm called PAGODA that helps doctors adjust chemotherapy doses for people with gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to prevent unplanned treatment delays while keeping the treatment effective.
Fairbanks, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT04629677Recruiting
Portal vein stent for narrowed portal blood vessels
This trial looks at whether placing a small metal stent in the portal vein and nearby veins can improve problems caused by major narrowing (or clotting) of these vessels in people with gastrointestinal cancers. If you have significant vessel narrowing, the study may offer a targeted way to relieve pressure and symptoms that are not caused by the tumor directly.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT03800693RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter vs longer oxaliplatin infusions for gut cancer
This Phase 2 study compares giving oxaliplatin by IV for 2 hours versus 6 hours, along with the standard FOLFOX6 chemotherapy. It aims to see if the shorter infusion works as well and is manageable for people with gastrointestinal cancers.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05179486Recruiting
Study genes and blood markers in bile duct and gallbladder cancers
This study looks at genetic and molecular patterns in people with bile duct or gallbladder cancers, and compares them with people without cancer (or with chronic liver disease). It may help researchers understand why these cancers happen and how to spot risk earlier.
Houston, TexasAges Any age - NCT07456852RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Can vasodilators help with chemo side effects in GI cancer?
This trial tests two drugs (isosorbide mononitrate and diltiazem) to see if they can prevent blood vessel damage caused by chemotherapy drugs like 5-FU or capecitabine in people with gastrointestinal cancers.
Rochester, MinnesotaAges 18 years+ - NCT05494060RecruitingPhase 2
Adjuvant chemo plus immunotherapy for ctDNA-positive stomach cancer
This trial tests whether adding an anti-cancer immune treatment and another targeted drug to standard chemotherapy after surgery can lower the chance of cancer coming back. It is for people whose blood test (ctDNA) shows leftover cancer-related DNA after surgery.
Nanjing, JiangsuAges 18–75 - NCT05612347Recruiting
Compare stool test vs colonoscopy for older adults with polyps
This study compares two ways to check for colon polyps in older adults: using a stool test versus having a colonoscopy. It may help find a simpler option if you only had a small number of lower-risk polyps before.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 65–82 - NCT05013944Recruiting
Join a patient registry to support future research
This trial is a “patient registry,” which collects health information over time to help researchers plan and run future studies. It may help by contributing your experience so new treatments can be tested more effectively.
Arlington Heights, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06500455RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs longer radiation for brain metastases
This trial compares the usual short course of radiation therapy (one session) to a longer course (up to 5 sessions) for people with cancer that has spread to the brain. The goal is to see if the longer course works better and causes fewer side effects.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05934331RecruitingPhase 2
Study for CLDN18.2-positive advanced gut cancers after first treatment
This Phase 2 trial tests a combination anti-cancer medicine (LM-302) plus other anti-tumor treatments for advanced gastrointestinal cancers. It’s designed for people whose tumors test positive for CLDN18.2 and who have already tried standard first-line treatment but didn’t respond or couldn’t tolerate it.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06479070Recruiting
Using ctDNA to guide radiotherapy for head and neck cancer
This study looks at whether measuring a DNA fragment in the blood (called ctDNA) can help predict how well radiotherapy works for head and neck cancer. It may help doctors better tailor treatment for patients with stage III or IV disease.
Caen, CaenAges 18 years+ - NCT02885753RecruitingPhase 3
Liver-only metastatic colon cancer trial using targeted chemo
This Phase 3 trial tests different ways to deliver chemotherapy for colon cancer that has spread only to the liver (with limited possible tiny lung spots). It looks at whether the treatment plan improves outcomes compared with another chemotherapy approach, using oxaliplatin and LV5FU2 (with or without irinotecan) plus an added targeted medicine.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for digestive system neoplasms?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 37 recruiting digestive system neoplasms 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 digestive system neoplasms 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 digestive system neoplasms 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.
