Recruiting studies
- NCT06603376RecruitingPhase 2
Drug combo for BRAF-mutated advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of four drugs (irinotecan liposome, fluorouracil, folinic acid, vermofenib, and cetuximab) as a first treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific BRAF V600E mutation. It aims to see if this combination can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
ShanghaiAges 18–80 - NCT06405139RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo combo (nanoliposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, capecitabine) before surgery for locally advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three chemotherapy drugs (nanoliposomal irinotecan, oxaliplatin, and capecitabine) given before surgery to shrink locally advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be treated with radiation. The goal is to make the tumor removable with a better chance of complete removal (R0 resection).
BeijingAges 18–70 - NCT07581912RecruitingPhase 2
Fulzerasib Plus Cetuximab for Advanced Colorectal Cancer With KRAS G12C
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (fulzerasib and cetuximab) given before surgery to shrink locally advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic mutation called KRAS G12C. The goal is to help make the cancer easier to remove surgically and improve outcomes.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–85 - NCT05601505RecruitingPhase 2

This trial tests whether combining toripalimab (an immunotherapy) with celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory drug) can shrink locally advanced colorectal tumors that have specific genetic features (dMMR or MSI-H). It aims to help people who haven't had any prior treatment for their colorectal cancer.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06856187RecruitingPhase 2
Second-line chemo plus TAS-102 combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests adding a new drug combo (TAS-102 and bevacizumab) to standard second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer, followed by local treatments. It may help if your first treatment stopped working and you are otherwise in good health.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges Any age - NCT05571644RecruitingPhase 2
Study compares two pre-surgery treatments for locally advanced rectal cancer
This Phase 2 trial tests whether a newer combination chemotherapy plus an immunotherapy medicine (cadonilimab/AK104) works better than standard chemotherapy before surgery for locally advanced colorectal cancer. The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve how well treatment works after surgery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–70 - NCT06440005RecruitingPhase 1
Testing AGX101 for advanced solid tumors
This study tests a new drug called AGX101 for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if it is safe and if it can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06342440Recruiting
Early detection of colon cancer and advanced polyps
This study aims to find colorectal cancer and advanced polyps (adenomas) earlier by looking at blood samples. Researchers hope a simple blood test might one day help detect colon cancer before it spreads.
Monrovia, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06307548RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Image-guided surgery and light therapy for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a special dye that helps surgeons see tumors more clearly during surgery, followed by a light therapy to destroy any remaining cancer cells. It is for people with advanced or returning colorectal cancer who are already scheduled for surgery.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06265285RecruitingPhase 2
Nivolumab at home vs. clinic for cancer treatment
This study compares giving the immunotherapy drug nivolumab as a shot under the skin at home versus in the clinic. It is for people with certain cancers who are already taking or starting nivolumab.
Jacksonville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06154538RecruitingPhase 2
Immunotherapy plus chemo vs. chemo alone for advanced colorectal cancer before surgery
This trial tests whether adding immunotherapy (a treatment that helps your immune system fight cancer) to standard chemotherapy before surgery works better than chemotherapy alone for people with locally advanced colorectal cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06073431Recruiting
Study on weight loss types in advanced cancer
This study looks at different types of weight loss (cachexia) in people with advanced lung, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer. Researchers want to find patterns to better understand and treat it. You can join even if you haven't lost weight yet.
Fort Smith, ArkansasAges 18 years+ - NCT05919264RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
FOG-001 for advanced solid tumors with certain gene changes
This trial tests a new drug, FOG-001, alone or with other treatments, for people with advanced solid tumors that have specific changes in the WNT pathway genes. It aims to see if the drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05705492RecruitingPhase 2
Olanzapine to help cancer-related weight and appetite loss
This Phase 2 trial tests whether olanzapine can help people with advanced cancer who are losing weight and not eating enough. It looks for improvements in appetite and weight while you receive your first-line palliative cancer treatment.
Portland, OregonAges 18 years+ - NCT04771520RecruitingPhase 2
Avapritinib for tumors with specific KIT or PDGFRA changes
This Phase 2 trial studies avapritinib, a targeted medicine, for people whose cancer has specific KIT or PDGFRA genetic changes. It may help shrink or slow growth of certain advanced cancers, including some brain tumors, when standard treatments have not worked or for specific glioblastoma cases.

New targeted pill combo for advanced colon or stomach cancers
This Phase 1 trial tests a combination of oral (swallowed) drugs—trifluridine/tipiracil plus talazoparib—in people with advanced (locally advanced or metastatic) colorectal or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. It’s designed to see how well the treatment can control cancer and to better understand side effects and dosing.
Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT01365169Recruiting
How activity level and daily function relate to cancer survival
This study looks at how physical activity (movement during the day) and a clinician-rated “day-to-day function” score relate to overall survival in people with certain cancers. It may help doctors understand who benefits most from activity-focused care and better monitoring.

Low-dose immunotherapy for advanced colorectal and stomach cancer
This study tests a lower dose of immunotherapy in patients with colorectal or stomach cancer that has spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The cancer must have a specific genetic feature (MSI/dMMR). The goal is to see if this approach works well with fewer side effects.
MoscowAges 18 years+ - NCT06369259RecruitingPhase 2
Combination treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that resisted standard therapy

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for locally advanced colorectal carcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 145 recruiting locally advanced colorectal carcinoma 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 locally advanced colorectal carcinoma 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 locally advanced colorectal carcinoma 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.
