Horsham, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05673148RecruitingPhase 3
Ablation treatment plus usual therapy for limited metastatic bowel cancer
This study tests whether adding “total ablation” (carefully destroying all visible small tumors using surgery, heat/cold treatment, and/or targeted radiation) to standard chemotherapy improves outcomes for people with limited spread of colorectal cancer. It may help by aiming to eliminate all known metastatic spots while you continue usual cancer treatment.
