Recruiting studies
- NCT04511039RecruitingPhase 1
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.

Buffalo, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT03998202Recruiting
Study of chemotherapy side effects in older colorectal cancer patients
This study looks at how chemotherapy and immunotherapy affect the body in older adults with colorectal cancer, especially early side effects. It may help researchers understand why some people lose strength and how to better predict and manage treatment toxicity.
Millville, DelawareAges 60 years+ - NCT07812805RecruitingPhase 1
New targeted treatment with imaging for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new experimental treatment (SKL35501) that uses a special imaging agent (SKL35502) to find and target a marker called NTSR1 found on some advanced cancers. The goal is to see if this treatment is safe and can help people whose cancer has stopped responding to standard treatments.
Glen Burnie, MarylandAges 18 years+ - NCT07702032RecruitingPhase 3
Study of petosemtamab plus chemo for left-sided colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug (petosemtamab) plus standard chemo to see if it works better than the current standard (cetuximab plus chemo) for people with advanced left-sided colorectal cancer that has not been treated yet. It is for patients whose cancer cells have no RAS or BRAF mutations.

Amivantamab plus chemo vs. standard chemo for left-sided colorectal cancer
This trial compares a new combination (amivantamab plus chemotherapy) with the standard treatment (cetuximab plus chemotherapy) as the first therapy for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread. The goal is to see which approach works better when the tumor has no mutations in the KRAS, NRAS, or BRAF genes.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06568679Recruiting

Study of Denikitug with immunotherapy or chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called denikitug, given alone or combined with other cancer treatments, for patients with advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't responded to previous treatments. The goal is to help people whose cancer has a specific genetic profile (MSS) that doesn't respond well to standard immunotherapy alone.

Study of a new drug for advanced solid tumors with a KRAS mutation
This trial tests a new pill, KST-6051, for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, pancreatic, or colorectal cancer) that have a specific genetic change called a KRAS mutation. The goal is to see if the drug can shrink or control the cancer, and to find the best dose.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06168786RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo and radiation for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of drugs (cadonilimab, fruquintinib) plus targeted radiation (SBRT) for people with advanced MSS colorectal cancer who have already tried several standard treatments. The goal is to see if this combination can help shrink tumors or slow disease progression.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT06720987RecruitingPhase 1
KQB365 for advanced solid tumors with KRAS mutations
This trial tests a new drug called KQB365, alone or with other drugs, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS mutation (G12C or G12S). It aims to see if the treatment is safe and effective.
Phoenix, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06558773RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for previously treated colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of a GSL synthesis inhibitor, an immunotherapy drug, and/or regorafenib in people with a specific type of colorectal cancer (pMMR/MSS) that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this new approach can help shrink or control the cancer.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic colorectal cancer (crc)?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 170 recruiting metastatic colorectal cancer (crc) 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 metastatic colorectal cancer (crc) 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 metastatic colorectal cancer (crc) 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.
