Recruiting studies
- NCT06126406RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeting CAR-T cell therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new immune cell therapy (CAR-T) designed to attack cancer cells that make a protein called CEA. It may be an option for people with advanced colorectal, esophageal, gastric, or pancreatic cancer who have already tried at least two standard treatments.
Wuhu, AnhuiAges 18 years+ - NCT05984875Recruiting
Immune system study for ovarian cancer
This study looks at how the immune system works in people with epithelial ovarian cancer. It aims to understand the immune landscape around the tumor, which could lead to better treatments in the future.
BellinzonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06236633Recruiting
Blocking an artery before rectal cancer surgery
This trial tests a technique called ischemic preconditioning, where doctors temporarily block a main artery in your gut before rectal cancer surgery to see if it helps reduce complications. If you are scheduled for this type of surgery and meet the health criteria, the study may offer more information about safer recovery.
MontpellierAges 18–90 - NCT06787625Recruiting
Growing tumor models from colorectal cancer and liver metastases
This study takes samples from colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and grows them in the lab. The goal is to create models that can help researchers understand the cancer better and find new treatments.
RomeAges 18 years+ - NCT07179692RecruitingPhase 1
CEA-targeted CAR-T therapy for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a type of immunotherapy called CAR-T, which is designed to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a protein called CEA on their surface. It's for people with advanced cancers like colorectal, esophageal, gastric, pancreatic, lung, or bile duct cancer who have tried at least two standard treatments.
Hefei, AnhuiAges 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.
Marseille, Bouches Du RhôneAges 18 years+ - NCT07529808RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
New Drug BHB810 for Advanced Stomach Cancer
This trial tests a new drug called BHB810 for gastric (stomach) and gastroesophageal junction cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments or has no standard options available. The drug targets a protein called CDH17 found on cancer cells and may help slow or shrink the tumor.
Fairfax, VirginiaAges 18 years+ - NCT04095299RecruitingPhase 3
Standard vs high-dose radiotherapy for rectal cancer
This Phase 3 trial compares standard-dose and higher-dose radiotherapy given along with chemotherapy in people with rectal cancer. The goal is to see whether a higher dose can improve rectal cancer outcomes while keeping the rectum functioning and avoiding too much harm.
AalborgAges 18 years+ - NCT07003022RecruitingPhase 2
Two-drug combo for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of two drugs (cadonilimab and an anti-angiogenic agent) for advanced colorectal cancer that has a specific genetic feature (dMMR or MSI-H). It aims to find a new treatment option that might work better than current therapies.
Shanghai, ChinaAges 18–80 - NCT07145255RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of MBRC-201 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, MBRC-201, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to find the best dose and see if it helps shrink tumors or slow their growth.
San Francisco, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06802172Recruiting
Timing meals during cancer treatment for Alaska Native patients
This study tests whether scheduling meals at specific times of day can improve how patients feel during cancer treatment. It is for Alaska Native or American Indian people with certain cancers (rectal, HER2+ or triple negative breast, or other solid tumors) who are receiving neoadjuvant (before surgery) or adjuvant (after surgery) therapy.
Anchorage, AlaskaAges 21 years+ - NCT05424692Recruiting
Test tumor drug sensitivity to guide after-surgery colon cancer care
This study looks at whether testing a small tumor sample can identify which medicines are more likely to work for colorectal cancer after surgery. The results are used to help choose the best “after-surgery” treatment plan, when you have not had chemotherapy before surgery.
Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–75 - NCT06263088Recruiting
Equity in GI Cancer Care Study
This trial is looking for Black patients newly diagnosed with any stage of gastrointestinal cancer to help improve cancer care and make sure research includes everyone. By joining, you help doctors learn how to better support patients like you.
Cleveland, OhioAges 18 years+ - NCT07085091RecruitingPhase 1
Study of ALX2004 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug, ALX2004, for people with certain advanced cancers (head and neck, lung, esophagus, or colorectal) that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the drug is safe and effective.
Tampa, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT03755739RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Checkpoint cancer drug given into or near tumors
This trial studies whether giving immunotherapy “checkpoint inhibitor” medicine directly into the tumor area (and/or the artery feeding it), along with a chemotherapy-style drug, can work better for advanced solid tumors. It aims to boost the immune system’s ability to attack cancer while still being safe for people with measurable tumors.
Guanzhou, GuangdongAges 18 years+ - NCT06926374Recruiting
Robotic surgery for gastrointestinal and urologic conditions
This trial tests a new robotic surgery system for common operations on the colon, rectum, prostate, kidney, bladder, stomach, esophagus, gallbladder, and hiatal hernia. It may offer a less invasive option for patients who need surgery for these conditions.
Hong KongAges 18–80 - 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.
Gilbert, ArizonaAges 18 years+ - NCT06762405RecruitingPhase 3
Testing dostarlimab with short radiation for MSI rectal cancer
This trial tests a new approach: giving the immunotherapy drug dostarlimab along with a short course of radiation before surgery, with the goal of avoiding surgery in many patients. It is for people with a specific type of rectal cancer (MSI-H or dMMR) that has not spread to other organs.
DijonAges 18 years+ - NCT07321106RecruitingPhase 1
CBI-1214 for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called CBI-1214, which is designed to help your immune system attack cancer cells. It is for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to other treatments.

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+ - NCT06239194RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for rectal tumor?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 46 recruiting rectal tumor 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 tumor 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 tumor 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.
