Recruiting studies
- NCT06906952Enrolling by invitation
Robotic surgery through the anus vs. standard robotic surgery for rectal cancer
This trial compares two robotic surgery methods for high rectal and sigmoid colon cancer—one that removes the tumor through the anus (NOSES-IV) and the traditional assisted approach. It aims to see which way may lead to better recovery.
NanchangAges 18–80 - NCT00102544Enrolling by invitation
Tracking Devices to Find Abnormalities During Medical Procedures
This study tests technology that uses imaging scans to help doctors locate and reach abnormalities during surgical or interventional procedures. The goal is to make these image-guided procedures more accurate and safer for patients.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 18–120 - NCT06369610RecruitingPhase 2
Less hormone therapy with radiation for prostate cancer
This trial tests whether some men with high-risk prostate cancer can safely receive less hormone therapy when combined with radiation. It aims to reduce side effects while still effectively treating the cancer.
Scottsdale, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05597852Recruiting
Rectal gel spacer to help repeat prostate radiation
This trial studies whether placing a soft gel spacer near the rectum can make “salvage” prostate radiation safer and more tolerable when prostate cancer comes back locally. It may help reduce side effects by creating extra space between the rectum and the radiation area.
Toronto, OntarioAges 18 years+ - NCT04575935RecruitingPhase 3
Minimally invasive surgery after chemotherapy for advanced ovarian cancer
This trial studies whether doing surgery using smaller incisions after chemotherapy works as well as a more traditional approach for certain people with stage IIIC–IV ovarian, fallopian tube, or primary peritoneal cancer. It may help reduce surgical trauma while aiming for effective tumor removal.
Miami, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT04035642Recruiting
Single high-dose MRI-guided radiation for intermediate prostate cancer
This trial tests whether a single, image-guided radiation treatment can treat intermediate-risk prostate cancer while better protecting the urethra (the urine tube). It may help patients get effective cancer control with potentially fewer urinary side effects, depending on the results.
LisbonAges 18 years+ - NCT02292641Recruiting
MRI study for repeat pelvic colorectal cancer
This study uses a special MRI to help understand and stage colorectal cancer that has come back in the pelvis. The goal is to improve how doctors make treatment decisions after previous surgery.
OsloAges 16 years+ - NCT05977621Recruiting
Ultrasound imaging to guide radiation needle placement
This trial tests a guidance technique that uses ultrasound images matched to MRI (a real-time “map”) to help track the needle position during treatment for cervical or uterine cancer. It may help make radiation treatments more precise for people who are getting curative-intent radiation with brachytherapy.
Durham, North CarolinaAges 18–90 - NCT05686226RecruitingPhase 2
Trial tests immune cells targeting HPV-16 cancers
This Phase 2 trial tests an immune-cell treatment (E7 TCR T cells) designed to attack cancers caused by HPV type 16. It may help people whose HPV-16+ cancer has come back or not responded to standard treatment.
Bethesda, MarylandAges 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+ - NCT04749108RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Tailored treatment for locally advanced rectal cancer after FOLFIRINOX
This trial studies a more customized treatment plan for people with locally advanced rectal (bowel) cancer after they receive FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy. It aims to reduce tumor spread risk and improve outcomes by tailoring the next steps based on scan details and your health status.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for rectal cancer, adenocarcinoma?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 251 recruiting rectal cancer, adenocarcinoma 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 rectal cancer, adenocarcinoma 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 rectal cancer, adenocarcinoma 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.
