Recruiting studies
- 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).
Jinhua, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT03125980RecruitingPhase 3
Chemo timing before vs after colon cancer surgery
This Phase 3 study compares two schedules of a colon cancer chemo combination: starting before surgery or starting after surgery. It aims to see which timing helps people live longer and lowers cancer coming back.
Shanghai, Shanghai MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT03401294RecruitingPhase 2
Turn unresectable liver cancer into operable colorectal cancer
This Phase 2 study tests a treatment strategy to shrink or control colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver, with the goal of making it removable by surgery. If you qualify, it may offer a chance to move from “not operable” to “operable,” but it’s still experimental.
Regina, SaskatchewanAges 18–70 - NCT04689347RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New chemotherapy and targeted drug for a specific colon cancer type
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (5-FU/LV, irinotecan, and temozolomide) plus bevacizumab in metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It focuses on tumors with an “MGMT silenced” pattern (MGMT gene turned off), which may make some cancers more responsive to these medicines.
Milan, MilanAges 18–75 - NCT05007132RecruitingPhase 2
First-line metastatic colon or rectal cancer study with targeted drugs
This Phase 2 trial compares two treatment combinations as a first treatment for metastatic (spread) colon or rectal cancer. It looks to see whether one combo works better or is safer than the other.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT05299840Recruiting
Test a device to choose the first chemo for metastatic colon cancer
This study tests whether using the Oncogramme® device to guide the first-line treatment improves care for people with metastatic colorectal (colon/rectum) cancer. If the device helps pick the most suitable standard chemotherapy plan, it could lead to better outcomes than choosing without it.
MarseilleAges 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+ - NCT05955196Recruiting
Immune therapy trial for colon cancer using CD47 blockers
This trial studies an immune-based treatment that targets CD47 to help your immune system fight colon cancer. It may help by changing the “immune environment” around the tumor so it can be more effective, and it is aimed at people with colon cancer that is advanced, recurring, or needing surgery.
MarseilleAges 18 years+ - NCT06134388RecruitingPhase 3
Sulfasalazine for metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug sulfasalazine to standard chemotherapy can help people with metastatic colorectal cancer live longer. It is for patients whose cancer has spread and who are healthy enough for chemotherapy.
Tanta, El-Gharbia GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT06242067RecruitingPhase 2
Second-line treatment for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new treatment for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread or come back after initial chemotherapy. It is for those who have already received standard first-line therapy and are now looking for a second treatment option.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT06242418RecruitingPhase 2
ctDNA-Guided Chemo for Stage III Colon Cancer
This trial tests whether checking for cancer DNA in your blood (ctDNA) can help doctors decide if you need extra chemotherapy after surgery for stage III colon cancer. It aims to personalize treatment and avoid unnecessary chemo.
Guiyang, GuizhouAges 18–75 - NCT06341296RecruitingPhase 2
Irinotecan liposomes for first-line advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new type of chemotherapy (irinotecan liposomes) as a first treatment for metastatic colorectal cancer that has not been treated before. It focuses on patients with specific genetic changes (RAS or BRAF V600E mutation) or right-sided colon cancer, and looks at how well the drug works.
Sichuan, Sichuan, ChengduAges 18–85 - NCT06490536RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new treatment for high-risk colon cancer after surgery
This trial tests a new treatment approach for people with certain high-risk colon cancers (stage II or III in the upper colon) after surgery. It aims to see if adding a study drug can help prevent the cancer from coming back.
BerlinAges 18 years+ - NCT06270017RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Zebrafish Avatars for Colon Cancer Treatment
This trial uses tiny zebrafish to grow a piece of your tumor and test which treatments might work best for you. It is for patients with colon cancer who are scheduled for surgery to remove their tumor.
Linköping, Östergötland CountyAges 18 years+ - NCT06782555RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of experimental drug combo for advanced cancers
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs—evofosfamide, zalifrelimab, and balstilimab—in people with advanced prostate, pancreatic, or certain head and neck cancers that have stopped responding to standard treatments.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04498767Recruiting
Radiation to treat a few metastatic spots in rare cancers
This trial studies whether stereotactic (high-precision) radiation given in a few sessions can control rare cancers that have spread to a small number of sites. It aims to help by treating all known spots while keeping side effects manageable.
AnderlechtAges 18 years+ - NCT07416552RecruitingPhase 1
Study of CEA-PRIT 2.0 for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests an experimental drug called CEA-PRIT 2.0 in people whose colorectal cancer has spread and is no longer responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if it can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
Omaha, NebraskaAges 18 years+ - 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+ - NCT04929223RecruitingPhase 1
Targeted drug study for metastatic colon or rectal cancer
