Recruiting studies
- NCT07349043RecruitingPhase 1

New drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called TQB2922 combined with TAS-102, with or without bevacizumab, for people whose advanced colorectal cancer has a normal RAS and BRAF gene and has not responded to standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination can slow or stop cancer growth.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 18–75 - NCT07003022RecruitingPhase 2
Two-drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (cadonilimab and an anti-angiogenic agent) for advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic feature (dMMR or MSI-H). It aims to find a new treatment option that might work better than current therapies.

Tested 212Pb imaging drug for certain advanced GRPR tumors
This early-phase study tests how safe and tolerable an experimental radiation drug is for adults with certain advanced or metastatic cancers that show a target called GRPR. Doctors will also use special scans to confirm the tumor has the target so the treatment can be delivered to the right place.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06225011RecruitingPhase 1
Can a common antidepressant help your immune system fight colorectal cancer before surgery?
This trial is testing whether a common antidepressant called fluoxetine (Prozac) can help your immune system fight colorectal cancer before surgery. It's for people with early-stage colorectal cancer who have not yet had treatment.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06484153RecruitingPhase 2
New drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new combination of three drugs—fruquintinib (a targeted therapy), pirfenidone (an anti-fibrotic drug), and an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1)—for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink tumors more effectively than current options.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT06549907Recruiting
Study of double immunotherapy plus anti-angiogenic therapy
This trial studies people with certain types of colorectal or other solid tumors that did not respond to a single immunotherapy drug. It tests whether adding a second immune checkpoint blocker and an anti-angiogenic drug can help control the cancer.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18 years+ - NCT06978400RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy plus chemo for BRAF mutant colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of targeted therapy (dabrafenib) and two other drugs (cetuximab or panitumumab) plus standard chemotherapy (FOLFOX) as a first treatment for people with a specific type of metastatic colorectal cancer that has a BRAF V600E mutation and is microsatellite stable.
MoscowAges 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+ - NCT06551207Recruiting
New drug combo with radiation for advanced MSS colon cancer
This trial tests a new combination—an immunotherapy drug (cadonilimab) plus a targeted anti-angiogenesis pill (fruquintinib) and focused radiation (SBRT)—for people with MSS colorectal cancer that has progressed after at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this triple approach can help shrink or control the cancer better than standard options.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT07550088RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy for colorectal cancer with liver tumors
This study tests a combination of three drugs for patients with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this combination can shrink tumors and help patients live longer.

Regorafenib, sintilimab, and electroacupuncture for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (regorafenib and sintilimab) plus electroacupuncture for people with advanced colorectal cancer that hasn't responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can help shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
ChangzhouAges 18–75 - NCT07277322RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Two immunotherapy drugs before surgery for MSS colorectal cancer with liver spots
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (Dupilumab and Toripalimab) before surgery for people with MSS colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to see if this treatment can shrink the liver tumors and help the body's immune system fight the cancer.
New York, New YorkAges 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+ - NCT07204574RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer after first treatment
This trial tests a new drug combination for advanced colorectal cancer that has not gotten better with standard chemotherapy. It is for people whose tumors have normal RAS and BRAF genes, and it adds a new type of medicine (HCB101) to a common chemotherapy plus targeted therapy regimen.
TaoyuanAges 18 years+ - NCT07201519RecruitingPhase 2
Chemo infusion for liver cancer using a hybrid care model
This trial tests a special type of chemotherapy (hepatic artery infusion) for people with cancers that have spread to the liver, such as colorectal cancer or bile duct cancer (intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma). It studies whether delivering this treatment partly at a community center and partly at a university hospital is safe and feasible.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–99 - NCT07154173Recruiting

Blood test to monitor liver cancer after surgery
This study uses a simple blood test to monitor tiny pieces of tumor DNA (ctDNA) in people with colorectal cancer that spread to the liver or with liver cancer (HCC), before and after liver surgery or transplant. It aims to help doctors detect cancer return earlier and guide treatment.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic colorectal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 546 recruiting metastatic colorectal cancer 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 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 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.
