Study of MCLA-158 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new experimental drug called MCLA-158 (petosemtamab) for people with advanced solid tumors, especially head and neck cancer or colorectal cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments. The study aims to see if this drug can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07391618RecruitingPhase 2
First treatment for advanced colorectal cancer with combo chemo
This trial tests a combination of two chemotherapy drugs, levozolinate and 5-FU, given together as a first treatment for advanced colorectal cancer that cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if giving them at the same time works better for patients who have never received treatment for this stage of cancer.
BeijingAges 18–75 - NCT06279351RecruitingPhase 2
Thalidomide plus standard chemo and cetuximab for left-sided colon cancer
This trial tests whether adding the drug thalidomide to standard chemotherapy plus cetuximab can work better for people with advanced left-sided colorectal cancer that hasn't been treated before.

This trial tests a new combination of three drugs—fruquintinib (a targeted therapy), pirfenidone (an anti-fibrotic drug), and an immunotherapy (anti-PD-1)—for people with advanced colorectal cancer that has not responded to at least two prior treatments. The goal is to see if this triple therapy can shrink tumors more effectively than current options.
Wuhan, HubeiAges 18–75 - NCT05202314Recruiting
Camrelizumab plus chemo after stent for left bowel cancer

Beijing, Beijing MunicipalityAges 18–80 - NCT06226857RecruitingPhase 3
Anti-EGFR for left-sided, RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer
This trial tests whether anti-EGFR therapy works better for people with left-sided colorectal cancer that has spread, whose tumors do not have certain gene mutations (RAS wild-type). It is for those who have not yet had treatment for metastatic disease.

Duarte, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT05592626RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
T cell activator STAR0602 for advanced solid tumors

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for unresectable colorectal cancer?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 219 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.
