Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224724Recruiting
Exosome liquid biopsy for colorectal cancer spread
This study uses a blood test to detect if colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver has also spread to other parts of the body. It may help doctors better understand how the cancer is moving and guide treatment decisions.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224841Recruiting
Blood test to predict targeted therapy response in colorectal cancer
This study is developing a blood test that looks at DNA signals to see if certain targeted therapies will work for people with metastatic colorectal cancer. It may help doctors choose the right treatment in the future.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07266363Recruiting
Blood test for early detection of esophageal cancer
This study is testing a blood test to detect esophageal squamous cell cancer early. Researchers are looking for a pattern of molecules in the blood that could signal the presence of this cancer.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224750Recruiting
A blood test to find early signs of gastrointestinal cancer
This study is testing a blood-based test to detect unique molecules (called miRNAs) that may signal the presence of several types of gut or digestive system cancers. The goal is to develop a simple screening tool that could catch these cancers earlier.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07226115Recruiting
Predicting chemotherapy outcomes for colorectal cancer
This trial uses a special test on your tumor tissue to see if it can predict how well chemotherapy will work for you. If you have had chemotherapy for stage II or III colorectal cancer after surgery, your stored tumor sample may help develop a tool that could guide future treatment decisions.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18–80 - NCT07243015Recruiting
Detecting cancer spread risk with blood markers
This trial uses simple blood tests to find tiny bits of cancer that might remain after surgery for stomach cancer. It could help doctors predict if the cancer will come back or spread.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07224789Recruiting
Finding colorectal cancer early with a blood test for circular RNA
This study is testing whether a simple blood test can detect circular RNA, a potential early marker for colorectal cancer. If you have early-stage colorectal cancer (stage I–III) and have had a blood sample taken before any treatment, you may be able to help researchers develop a better detection method.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07255729Recruiting
Blood Test for Colon Cancer Staging
This study looks at a new blood test that may help doctors better understand how far colon cancer has spread. By testing a sample of your blood (taken before surgery), researchers hope to find patterns that predict the stage of cancer and help guide treatment decisions.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06717919RecruitingPhase 4
Testing HOPE treatment to prevent liver cancer return after transplant
This study tests a special way of preserving donated livers, called HOPE, to see if it lowers the chance of liver cancer coming back after a liver transplant. If you have liver cancer and are waiting for a transplant, this trial might be an option for you.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06731894RecruitingPhase 2
Cannabis for nerve pain after chemotherapy in breast and colon cancer survivors
