Recruiting studies
- NCT06630624RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
IP-001 with ablation for colorectal liver metastases
This trial tests whether adding the drug IP-001 to tumor ablation (microwave or irreversible electroporation) helps control colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to find the best dose and see how the immune system responds.
Amsterdam, North HollandAges 18 years+ - NCT06563388RecruitingPhase 3

Buffalo, New YorkAges 1 year+ - NCT03412877RecruitingPhase 2
Personalized immune-cell therapy for advanced metastatic cancers
This trial tests a personalized cell therapy made from your own immune cells, changed to recognize “neoantigens” on cancer cells. It’s designed for people with metastatic (advanced spread) solid cancers or certain other cancers who have tried standard treatments but cancer is still growing.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–72 - NCT06444815RecruitingPhase 1
Study of VET3-TGI for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental treatment called VET3-TGI, which is injected directly into tumors. It is for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried other treatments and are looking for new options.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07281716RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Immunotherapy combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy drugs for people with a specific type of colorectal cancer (MSS, or microsatellite stable) that has stopped responding to standard chemotherapy. The goal is to see if this new treatment can shrink tumors or slow the cancer's growth.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT05566249Recruiting
Safety study of ArtiSential during rectal cancer surgery
This trial checks whether a tool called ArtiSential can be used safely and practically during planned rectal cancer operations. It may help the surgical team prepare and perform the operation more smoothly, but the main goal is safety and feasibility.
SeoulAges 18–80 - NCT06937177RecruitingPhase 2
Testing mifomelatide to help maintain weight during chemo
This trial tests an investigational drug called mifomelatide (TCMCB07) to see if it can help people with newly diagnosed colorectal or pancreatic cancer maintain a healthy weight while receiving certain types of chemotherapy. You would give yourself a daily injection under the skin.
Tucson, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT04920149RecruitingPhase 2
Mesalamine to help prevent colon cancer in Lynch syndrome
This trial tests whether mesalamine, a medicine used for bowel inflammation, can help prevent colorectal cancer in people with Lynch syndrome who do not currently have cancer. It may help by lowering the chance that new pre-cancer growths form over time.
AalborgAges 30 years+ - NCT06575127RecruitingPhase 2
Three-drug chemo plus targeted therapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of three chemotherapy drugs plus a targeted therapy as a first treatment for advanced colorectal cancer. The goal is to see if this strong drug mix can shrink tumors better than standard approaches.
Cairo, Cairo GovernorateAges 18–65 - NCT04429542RecruitingPhase 1
Test of an EGFR-targeting drug for advanced solid cancers
This Phase 1 study tests the safety of BCA101 (an EGFR-targeting treatment) alone or combined with pembrolizumab. It may help people with certain EGFR-driven advanced cancers, depending on the tumor type, prior treatments, and required biopsy testing.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT02579278Recruiting
Tests blood DNA and scans in early colon cancer surgery
This study looks at a blood test that detects cancer DNA (ctDNA) and compares it with CT scan findings before surgery. It may help doctors understand how aggressive the cancer is and how scan features relate to blood test results.
Margate, KentAges 16 years+ - NCT06329973RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Fruquintinib, sintilimab, and chemo for stomach cancer
This trial tests a combination of three drugs (fruquintinib, sintilimab, and CAPEOX chemotherapy) as a first treatment for advanced stomach or gastroesophageal cancer. The goal is to see if this combination helps slow or shrink the tumor.
Zhengzhou, HenanAges 18–75 - NCT07458347RecruitingPhase 1
A new oral drug for KRAS-mutated advanced cancer
This trial tests a new oral drug, KST-6051, for people with advanced solid tumors (like lung, pancreatic, colon, or other cancers) that have a specific KRAS gene mutation. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it's safe.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07058012RecruitingPhase 2
Testing immunotherapy for ctDNA-positive colorectal cancer after treatment
This trial is for people with colorectal cancer whose ctDNA blood test is still positive after surgery and chemotherapy. It tests two immunotherapy drugs (cemiplimab alone or with fianlimab) to see if they can eliminate the remaining cancer cells and prevent the cancer from coming back.
Gainesville, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07084558Recruiting
Testing treatment guided by tumor DNA for hormone positive breast cancer
This trial tests whether using a blood test (circulating tumor DNA) can help guide chemo and hormone therapy for early-stage, hormone receptor positive and HER2 negative breast cancer. The goal is to tailor treatment to your tumor's response, potentially reducing unnecessary side effects.
Vienna, AustriaAges 18–100 - NCT07454642RecruitingPhase 1
AVA6103 for advanced FAP-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called AVA6103 for certain advanced cancers that show a protein called FAP. It is for people who have already tried other treatments or cannot take them, and aims to see if the drug is safe and helps shrink tumors.
Grand Rapids, MichiganAges 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.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for metastatic colorectal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 540 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.
