Recruiting studies
- NCT05174169RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Adjuvant colon chemotherapy guided by tumor DNA results
This trial tests whether treatment for colon cancer after surgery can be guided by a blood test that looks for leftover cancer signals (ctDNA). It may help some people choose stronger or different chemo based on whether ctDNA is found after surgery.
Birmingham, AlabamaAges 18 years+ - NCT05248581Recruiting
Living donor liver transplant for unresectable colon cancer spread
This trial looks at using a living donor liver transplant for people whose colon or rectal cancer has spread to the liver in a way that can’t be removed with standard surgery. It may help if you might otherwise have limited options because your liver surgery would be too risky.
Rochester, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07230639RecruitingPhase 2
Shorter radiation with chemo and immunotherapy for high-risk colon cancer
This trial tests a shorter course of radiation combined with chemotherapy and an immunotherapy drug (PD-1 inhibitor) for people with a specific type of high-risk colon cancer that has not spread. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink the tumor before surgery and improve outcomes.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07172282RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Immunotherapy for colorectal cancer liver metastases
This trial tests a new way to deliver immunotherapy directly into the liver for people with colorectal cancer that has spread only to the liver. The goal is to see if this approach can shrink tumors before surgery, and it may be an option if you've already had standard chemotherapy.
Lake Success, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04621435RecruitingPhase 1
PET imaging test for solid tumors using FAP-2286
This Phase 1 study tests a special imaging scan (using FAP-2286) to see solid tumors in people who have already been diagnosed. It may help doctors better detect where cancer is in the body and how to plan treatment.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05482516RecruitingPhase 3
Testing blood test–guided treatment for GI cancers in remission
This Phase 3 study tests whether giving treatment based on a positive blood test for “minimal cancer signals” (ctDNA) can help people with certain GI cancers stay cancer-free longer. It focuses on people who have finished curative-intent therapy and currently have no visible disease on scans, but their blood test is still positive.
Washington D.C., District of ColumbiaAges 18 years+ - NCT05789433Recruiting
Aerobic exercise study after colon or rectal cancer surgery
This trial studies whether a supervised aerobic exercise program helps muscles “remodel” (change/strengthen) after colon or rectal cancer treatment. It may help people improve physical function during recovery, but you can only join if it’s safe for you and you can follow the study plan.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT06126419Recruiting
High-dose insulin for liver function after surgery
This trial tests if high-dose insulin can help your liver work better and heal faster after a major liver surgery for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT03978078Recruiting
Database study for metastatic GI cancer care
This study collects clinical and lab information to better understand metastatic cancers of the digestive system and how patients respond to treatment. It may help improve future care, but it is mainly focused on collecting data rather than testing a new drug.
Montpellier, HéraultAges 18 years+ - NCT05008809RecruitingPhase 3
FIRE-9 trial: chemo after colon cancer metastasis removal
This trial studies whether giving chemotherapy after surgery or ablation (destroying spots of cancer) can improve outcomes in people with metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It compares post-treatment chemotherapy strategies to reduce the chance the cancer comes back.
AmbergAges 18 years+ - NCT05970302RecruitingPhase 2
XELOX, bevacizumab, and immunotherapy for metastatic colon cancer
This Phase 2 trial studies a combination treatment (XELOX plus bevacizumab plus an immunotherapy drug) for people with metastatic colon cancer that has certain lab features (MSS/pMMR and RAS-mutated). It aims to see how well the treatment works as a first treatment when the cancer cannot be removed with surgery.
BeijingAges 18 years+ - NCT07222800RecruitingPhase 3
Testing a new drug plus chemo for stage 4 colorectal cancer
This study tests a new experimental drug (PF-08634404) combined with standard chemotherapy for people with stage 4 colorectal cancer who have not yet been treated for their advanced disease. The goal is to see if the combination helps shrink or slow the growth of tumors.
Chandler, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT03692429RecruitingPhase 1
Testing new immune cells plus chemo for advanced colon cancer
This Phase 1 study tests CYAD-101, an immune-cell treatment made from donor T-cells, given with standard chemotherapy. It is for people with colon or rectal cancer that has spread and has not responded to prior treatments.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07535112RecruitingPhase 1
Testing BAY 3771249 for Advanced Colorectal Cancer With KRAS Mutation
This early-stage study tests a new drug called BAY 3771249 in people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12D mutation). Researchers want to learn if it's safe and whether it helps shrink tumors.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05253651RecruitingPhase 3
Tucatinib plus trastuzumab with chemo for HER2+ metastatic colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding tucatinib and trastuzumab to standard chemotherapy works better than standard treatment alone for people with HER2-positive metastatic colon or rectal cancer. It aims to improve how long people live and how well tumors respond as first treatment for advanced disease.
Glendale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06226857RecruitingPhase 3
Anti-EGFR for left-sided, RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether anti-EGFR therapy works better for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread, whose tumors do not have certain gene mutations (RAS wild-type). It is for those who have not yet had treatment for metastatic disease.
MoscowAges 18–99 - 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.
BrusselsAges 18 years+ - NCT06882746RecruitingPhase 1
Testing different doses of BI 765049 for advanced colorectal, stomach, or pancreatic cancer
This study tests a new drug (BI 765049) at different doses for people with advanced colorectal, stomach, or pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to find a safe and effective dose.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07419490Recruiting
Moving ovaries and uterus to preserve fertility during pelvic radiation
This trial moves the ovaries and uterus higher in the belly before pelvic radiation to protect them, so patients may still be able to have children later. It is for women aged 18-40 with pelvic cancers that require radiation.
Tampa, FloridaAges 1.5 years–3.3 years - NCT06590506Recruiting
Wearable health tracking for advanced solid tumor treatment
This trial studies how using a wearable device and smartphone app can help monitor your health during your first cancer treatment for advanced solid tumors. You will receive a known therapy (not a placebo), and the research team will collect real-world data to improve care.
A Coruña, A Coruña/ GaliciaAges 18 years+ - NCT05176483RecruitingPhase 1
New drug combinations for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called zanzalintinib, which may slow or shrink various types of advanced cancer. It is given together with other cancer treatments, and the study is looking at many different cancers including kidney, prostate, bladder, lung, liver, and more.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06997497RecruitingPhase 3
Study of Calderasib with other drugs for colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called Calderasib combined with targeted therapy or chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12C mutation). It may be an option for those who have not had prior treatment for advanced disease.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05464082RecruitingPhase 2
Collect tumor samples to guide early breast cancer recurrence care
This Phase 2 study tests a “precision” approach using tumor sample testing to help predict, prevent, and treat early metastatic recurrence in triple-negative or hormone-receptor–low, HER2-negative breast cancer. If you qualify, you’ll be asked to provide tumor tissue before (or in place of) standard chemotherapy, so researchers can learn which tumor features matter most.
Salt Lake City, UtahAges 18 years+ - NCT05768503RecruitingPhase 3
Test new drugs after colorectal cancer chemotherapy
This Phase 3 trial compares a new treatment combination (chidamide plus sintilimab plus bevacizumab) versus the standard second-line chemotherapy (FOLFIRI plus bevacizumab) for advanced colorectal cancer that is microsatellite stable/low. It aims to see which treatment works better and is safer for people whose cancer grew after first-line oxaliplatin-based therapy.
