Petosemtamab plus chemotherapy for advanced colorectal cancer
This study tests a new drug called petosemtamab combined with chemotherapy for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to one prior treatment. The trial aims to see if adding petosemtamab helps the cancer shrink or grow more slowly compared to adding a standard targeted therapy like cetuximab or bevacizumab.

This trial tests a new drug combined with a standard treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to earlier therapies. It aims to see if the combination can help slow the cancer's growth.
Wuhan, WuhanAges 18 years+ - NCT06207656RecruitingPhase 2
Targeted therapy for BRAF V600E mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests if combining three targeted drugs (cetuximab, encorafenib, and binimetinib) before surgery can shrink or control cancer in people with a specific BRAF V600E mutation and a stable (MSS) tumor. It focuses on colorectal cancer that is either already able to be removed or could become removable with treatment.
MadridAges 18 years+ - NCT07693751RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Testing a new drug for advanced colorectal cancer
This trial tests a new drug called SOT109 for people with advanced colorectal cancer that can't be removed by surgery or has spread. The goal is to see if it is safe, how well it works, and how the body handles it.
Houston, TexasAges 18 years+ - NCT04516681RecruitingPhase 3
Ascorbic acid plus immunotherapy for spread colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether intravenous vitamin C (ascorbic acid) combined with an immune treatment (adebrelimab) can slow or shrink metastatic colorectal cancer that can’t be removed with surgery. It focuses on tumors that strongly show a specific marker called GLUT3, and aims to see if the combination works better than standard approaches.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for unresectable colorectal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 220 recruiting unresectable colorectal cancer 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 unresectable colorectal cancer 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 unresectable colorectal cancer 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.
