Recruiting studies near Los Angeles
- NCT04703101RecruitingPhase 1
Short radiation plus chemo for stage II–III rectal cancer
This trial tests a short course of radiation therapy combined with chemotherapy for people with stage II or III rectal cancer. It’s designed to see whether this approach is safe and effective before or around cancer surgery.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06682793RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of A2B395 therapy for solid tumors with EGFR and HLA loss
This trial tests a new cell therapy called A2B395 for cancers that have EGFR, a protein on the cell surface, and have lost a specific marker called HLA-A*02. The therapy uses specially engineered immune cells to target and kill these cancer cells. This may help patients with colorectal, lung, head and neck, breast, kidney, or other solid tumors that are no longer responding to standard treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 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+ - NCT03961776Recruiting
MRI to monitor treatment response in rectal cancer
This trial tests whether an MRI scan done during chemoradiation can help doctors track how rectal cancer treatment is working. It may improve how they measure response early so treatment planning can be better tailored.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06051695RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
CAR T cell therapy for mesothelin-positive solid tumors
This trial tests a new type of immune cell therapy (CAR T-cells) designed to target cancer cells that have a protein called mesothelin but have lost a marker that lets them hide from the immune system. It's for people with advanced solid tumors who have already tried standard treatments.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07595874RecruitingPhase 2
New Immunotherapy Drugs Before Surgery for Advanced Colorectal Cancer
This trial tests two immunotherapy drugs (botensilimab and balstilimab) given before surgery to treat advanced colorectal cancer that can be removed. The goal is to help the immune system fight cancer cells and improve outcomes after surgery.
South Pasadena, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07143487Recruiting
Family communication after genetic testing for colon cancer
This trial studies how patients with newly diagnosed colon cancer share genetic test results with their family members. It aims to improve communication and support after learning about hereditary risk.
Burbank, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06780787RecruitingPhase 2
Study of chemo plus immunotherapy for localized rectal cancer before surgery
This trial tests a combination of chemotherapy (FOLFOX) and two immunotherapies (botensilimab and balstilimab) before surgery for patients with localized rectal cancer. It aims to see if adding immunotherapy helps shrink the tumor and improve outcomes.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06834126RecruitingPhase 1
Papaverine with radiation for advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests if adding papaverine (a drug) to radiation therapy can help people with locally advanced rectal cancer avoid surgery and keep their rectum. It is for patients who have already had chemotherapy and want a non-surgical approach.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05059444Recruiting
Blood test study to watch for cancer coming back
This study looks at whether blood tests can detect signs that cancer may return after curative-intent treatment. You would have blood drawn around your usual follow-up visits for up to 5 years, and your de-identified health data would be shared with study investigators.

What taking part in a rectal adenocarcinoma study involves
A screening visit first
Before anything else, the study team checks whether you fit — usually a visit with some tests. You can stop at any point, and screening is typically free.
Care at a nearby site
Study visits happen at a clinic or hospital taking part. Many studies cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits, and some reimburse travel.
You stay in control
Taking part is voluntary and you can leave a study at any time, for any reason, without affecting your regular care.
The team decides eligibility
Our fit check is a helpful first read, not a decision. The study team makes the final call after reviewing your health history.
