Recruiting studies
- NCT07610798RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing INV-8989 for Advanced Cancers With KRAS G12D Mutation
This early-stage trial tests a new drug called INV-8989 designed to target a specific genetic mutation (KRAS G12D) found in some advanced solid cancers. The study will evaluate whether the drug is safe and if it can help shrink tumors in patients who haven't responded to standard treatments.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT07125729Recruiting
Early cancer detection test for colorectal cancer
This trial uses two blood tests (Signatera and Haystack) to look for tiny bits of cancer DNA after surgery, to find out if the cancer comes back as early as possible. People with stage II, III, or IV colorectal cancer who have had or will have surgery to remove their tumor may join.
Goodyear, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT07649057Recruiting
Urine Test for Early Colorectal Cancer Detection
This study tests whether a simple urine sample can detect colorectal cancer or precancerous polyps. Researchers want to see if this non-invasive test could help identify people at risk before symptoms develop or catch cancer earlier.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT06461793RecruitingPhase 2
Higher dose radiation with hormone therapy for high-risk prostate cancer
This trial tests a higher dose of radiation given in fewer sessions (hypofractionated) combined with hormone therapy for men with high-risk prostate cancer that has not spread. A gel spacer called SpaceOAR is used to protect the rectum. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective.
SeoulAges 20 years+ - NCT04006951Recruiting
Registry study for people with rectal cancer in Montpellier
This is a hospital-based study that builds a clinical and biological database for people treated for rectal cancer at the Montpellier Cancer Institute. It helps researchers organize health information to better understand rectal cancer and improve future care.
MontpellierAges 18 years+ - NCT07369531Recruiting
Stoma-free survival after new anal-sparing surgery for low rectal cancer
This study compares a two-stage surgical technique (Turnbull-Cutait pull-through) to standard surgery for people with low rectal cancer. The goal is to see which approach helps more patients avoid a permanent stoma (bag) after surgery.
Changchun, JilinAges 18–75 - NCT06854679Recruiting
MRI-guided radiation for rectal cancer
This trial tests a new way of giving radiation therapy for rectal cancer, using MRI scans to aim the radiation more precisely. It's for people who need chemotherapy and radiation before surgery, and it aims to make treatment more effective while reducing side effects.
Sutton, SurreyAges 18 years+ - NCT07087561Recruiting
Nutrition and health education after colorectal cancer surgery
This trial tests whether a short-term nutritional supplement combined with health education can improve recovery after surgery for colorectal cancer. It is for people with stage IIa, IIb, or IIIa colon or rectal cancer who have completed surgery and are able to engage in follow-up.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT06729736Enrolling by invitation
Faster recovery after colorectal cancer surgery
This trial is testing a program called ERAS (Enhanced Recovery After Surgery) to help patients recover faster after minimally invasive colorectal cancer surgery. It aims to improve your recovery and reduce hospital stay.
Seoul, SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT05365412Recruiting
Study of colon cancer in younger adults
This study looks at the clinic and lab features of colon cancer in people diagnosed at a young age. Your information from your diagnosis and treatment may help doctors understand how colon cancer differs by age.
Seongnam-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 18 years+ - NCT07802002Recruiting
Dietary supplement to prevent bowel injury during radiation for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether a special dietary supplement can help protect the rectum from radiation damage during chemoradiation for locally advanced rectal cancer. If it works, it may reduce painful bowel symptoms like frequent stools and cramping.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - NCT07750951RecruitingPhase 2
Combination therapy before surgery for advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs and chemotherapy given before surgery for a type of rectal cancer that has a specific genetic marker (MSI-H/dMMR). The goal is to shrink the tumor and improve the chances of successful surgery.
Xi'an, ShaanxiAges 18 years+ - NCT07361107RecruitingPhase 1
Immune response study of histotripsy in colorectal cancer
This trial tests how your body's immune system reacts to a treatment called histotripsy for colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. Histotripsy uses sound waves to break apart tumors, and the study aims to see if this can help your immune system fight the cancer better.
New Hyde Park, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT04249154RecruitingPhase 2
After prostate surgery, test radiation plus hormone shots
This trial studies whether giving a shorter-course radiation plan after prostate surgery, along with hormone shots (LHRH), can improve outcomes for people with higher-risk prostate cancer. You may be eligible if your PSA (a blood marker) is either still low but high-risk by pathology, or it has started to rise again after surgery.
Montreal, QuebecAges 18 years+ - NCT06391034RecruitingPhase 2
MRI scan with pyruvate for prostate cancer
This trial uses a special MRI scan (with hyperpolarized pyruvate, a naturally occurring substance) to look at prostate cancer in more detail. It aims to help doctors understand how the cancer is responding to treatment or how it might behave.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05015296Recruiting
Immune cells and recovery in colorectal cancer surgery
This trial looks at how your immune cells change before and after surgery for colorectal cancer, and whether those changes affect your long-term recovery. It may help doctors predict outcomes and improve care.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–85 - NCT06905925Recruiting
Training program for people with a permanent colostomy
This trial tests whether a training program can help people who have a permanent colostomy feel more confident in managing their daily care. If you are scheduled for a permanent colostomy, can speak Turkish, and have a phone, this study may be a good fit.
Adana, YüreğirAges 18–100 - NCT04815694Recruiting
MRI-guided radiotherapy for rectal cancer
This trial tests whether using MRI scans to guide radiotherapy can improve treatment for people with a certain type of rectal cancer. It focuses on patients whose tumors have not spread to other parts of the body and who have specific tumor features seen on MRI.
Roma, RomaAges 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+ - NCT05051046Recruiting
Screening colonoscopy with hypnosis for colorectal cancer
This trial studies whether using hypnosis during a screening colonoscopy can help people better tolerate the procedure and complete it comfortably. It’s for adults who are scheduled for a routine screening colonoscopy and meet specific safety and communication requirements.
AngersAges 18–100 - NCT05731726RecruitingPhase 2
New treatment before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer
This trial tests whether giving serplulimab (an immune medicine) plus CAPEOX chemotherapy and celecoxib before surgery can shrink locally advanced rectal cancer and improve outcomes. It may help by increasing immune attack on the tumor while chemotherapy helps reduce the cancer before the operation.
Hangzhou, ZhejiangAges 18–75 - NCT07213193Recruiting
