Recruiting studies
- NCT07026422RecruitingPhase 2
Combination immunotherapy with chemoradiation for high-risk rectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two immunotherapy drugs (iparomlimab and tuvonralimab) plus standard chemotherapy and radiation before surgery for people with a specific type of high-risk rectal cancer. The goal is to see if adding these drugs can improve treatment results.
Jinan, ShandongAges 18–75 - NCT07407647RecruitingPhase 2
Vaginal DHEA for better vaginal health after pelvic radiation
This study tests whether a vaginal insert of DHEA (a hormone) can help with vaginal health problems caused by pelvic radiation for anal, rectal, or gynecologic cancers. It is for women who are already postmenopausal and are about to start radiation.
Columbus, OhioAges 50 years+ - NCT05984576Recruiting
Chemo and radiation for recurrent rectal cancer after prior pelvic radiation
This study looks at combining total neoadjuvant therapy (chemotherapy and radiation) for rectal cancer that has come back in the pelvis after earlier radiation. It aims to see if this treatment approach can help control the disease and improve outcomes in patients with limited spread that can potentially be removed or treated.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07283939Recruiting
Testing a tool to adjust chemo doses and reduce treatment delays
This trial tests a computer algorithm called PAGODA that helps doctors adjust chemotherapy doses for people with gastrointestinal cancers. The goal is to prevent unplanned treatment delays while keeping the treatment effective.
Fairbanks, AlaskaAges 18 years+ - NCT03587480Recruiting
Surgery methods after chemo-radiation for stage 3 rectal cancer
This trial compares two different surgery approaches after chemo-radiation for stage 3 rectal cancer. It aims to see which operation helps control the cancer more effectively while keeping surgery as safe as possible.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 18–75 - 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+ - NCT04949646Recruiting
Nerve monitoring during rectal cancer surgery
This trial studies whether checking pelvic nerve signals during rectal cancer surgery (total mesorectal excision) is helpful. It may help surgeons avoid nerve injury while removing the cancer.
LarissaAges 18–90 - NCT05689775Recruiting
Robot-assisted reconstruction using tummy muscle flap after surgery
This trial studies a specific way to rebuild the pelvic floor (and sometimes the vagina) after major rectal or anal cancer surgery. It uses robotic surgery and a flap taken from your tummy muscle to help close and reconstruct the area.
OsloAges 18 years+ - NCT02669992Recruiting
Compare closure methods for a loop ileostomy after rectal cancer
This trial studies which technique works best to close a loop ileostomy after rectal cancer surgery. It compares different closure methods to see which is safer and more effective for patients.
GothenburgAges Any age - NCT05927584Recruiting
Local removal for early rectal cancer without extra treatment
This trial studies removing an early rectal cancer tumor locally (through the rectum/anal area) with no additional therapy afterward. The goal is to preserve organs and maintain quality of life while still trying to cure the cancer.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT05939687RecruitingPhase 3
Mesh placement to help prevent complications after bowel surgery
This Phase 3 trial tests whether placing a protective mesh during stoma closure can lower the risk of complications after low anterior resection surgery. It may help people heal more safely and reduce stoma-related problems.
MoscowAges 18–85 - 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+ - 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.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT05793554Recruiting
AI checks cancer type during rectal surgery in real time
This study tests an AI system that helps identify cancer or polyp findings during rectal surgery or assessment, using real-time information. It may help surgeons classify tissue more accurately while you are already getting treatment.
Dublin, IrelandAges 18 years+ - NCT07450612Recruiting
Blood test and AI for early colorectal cancer detection
This study uses a simple blood test (liquid biopsy) and computer analysis to find early signs of colorectal cancer, precancerous growths, and Lynch syndrome. It aims to improve early detection and monitor for any remaining cancer after treatment.
Milan, LombardyAges 18 years+ - NCT07059884Recruiting
Exercise program to help people with cancer stay active
This trial tests a distance-based exercise program designed to help people on chemotherapy maintain their physical function and prevent disability. It is for patients with certain cancers who are working full-time and can participate in moderate physical activity.
Dublin, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT04907643Recruiting
Virtual reality program to reduce stomach-cancer pain
This trial tests whether virtual reality (VR) can improve pain and other day-to-day symptoms in people with certain gastrointestinal cancers. You’d use VR for pain relief while researchers measure how you’re feeling.
Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18–99

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for rectal neoplasms?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 41 recruiting rectal neoplasms 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 neoplasms 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 neoplasms 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.
