Observational study for adults with possible or confirmed bowel cancer
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study mainly watches and records health information from adults with colorectal cancer (or a strong suspicion of it). It collects past tumor tissue and other clinical details to better understand the disease and care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be at least 18 years old
- Have a past diagnosis of colorectal cancer, or strong suspicion based on scans and symptoms
- Have tumor tissue available in a lab (FFPE tissue blocks preferred, or enough slides)
- Be able to do study visits and procedures (psychological, social, or travel issues can prevent joining)
- Have good general functioning: ECOG less than 2 (roughly, not very limited in daily activities)

This study looks at how bacteria in your gut, your immune system, and colon cancer interact. It aims to understand these connections to improve future treatments.
This retrospective study uses existing colorectal cancer imaging and/or preserved tissue samples to support more precise (personalized) research. It may help researchers better understand colorectal cancer over time, but it does not involve new treatment.
This study looks at how gut bacteria and immune activity differ in normal, pre-cancer, and cancer colon tissue. It may help researchers understand what changes in the body are linked to colon growth and how they could be targeted in the future.
This study looks at patterns of colorectal (colon and rectum) findings in people who are having a colonoscopy as part of routine care. It may help improve how doctors detect and understand colorectal cancer and related growths over time.
This study collects information over time from adults with colorectal, small bowel, or anal cancer. It’s an observational project, meaning it doesn’t test a new drug on you, but your data may help improve care for others and future patients.
This study follows people age 40 and older to see how well colorectal cancer screening works in everyday community care. You may answer risk and follow-up questions over time, and the study looks for any cancer diagnoses that happen outside the study hospitals.
