Study of tumor tissue in appendiceal cancer after surgery
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at stored tumor samples to better understand appendiceal cancer that has spread to the lining of the abdomen (peritoneal metastases). Your tumor tissue from past procedures may help researchers learn more about the cancer and how it behaves.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older
- You have been diagnosed with appendiceal cancer that has spread to the abdominal lining
- You have already had cytoreductive surgery (surgery to remove as much cancer as possible)
- You have tumor tissue on file from a previous procedure that can be used for research

This research study uses genetic and molecular testing on archived tumor samples to better understand appendiceal cancer and predict how it may progress. The goal is to help doctors personalize treatment plans based on the specific characteristics of your cancer.
This study looks at genetic (inherited) and other biological factors in people with appendix cancer and, in some cases, their biological parents. The goal is to learn what may contribute to appendix cancer and help researchers better understand risk.
This study looks at colorectal cancer that has spread to the peritoneum (the lining around the belly) using existing tumor tissue samples. It may help researchers better understand the cancer’s biology and improve future treatments.
This study looks at how often tumors are found near the appendix in people who have a periappendiceal abscess (a pocket of infection). It uses imaging tests like CT, MRI, or ultrasound to confirm the condition and may help doctors better understand what to look for.
This trial collects a small piece of your tumor right after it is removed during surgery. Researchers will study this tissue to learn more about cancer and how it responds to treatments.
This trial studies and analyzes tissue samples from people who had surgery for exocrine pancreatic (pancreatic duct-type) cancer. It may help researchers better understand the disease biology and improve future care.
