Using gut bacteria to study pelvic cancers
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks at gut bacteria (and the chemicals they make) in people being treated for pelvic cancers. The goal is to understand what might be happening in the gut and how it could relate to pelvic cancer.

This study looks at gut bacteria in people with colorectal cancer that has spread (metastatic). It aims to find patterns in the bacteria that may help doctors choose better treatments.
This study looks at how gut bacteria (the microbiome) change during treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread or cannot be removed. Researchers hope the findings may help improve understanding of how treatment works and how to tailor care.
This study looks at how bacteria and other microbes in your gut are linked to colorectal cancer risk and outcomes. By collecting stool samples from people newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer, researchers hope to find patterns that could improve understanding and future treatments.
This study looks at how gut bacteria may relate to how well immunotherapy works in people with advanced or returning gynecologic cancer. You may be asked to give stool samples several times so researchers can measure changes in your gut microbiome.
This study looks at the bacteria living in your gut and pancreas to understand how they might affect pancreatic cancer and precancerous changes. It is for people who are already scheduled for an endoscopic procedure to look at or treat a pancreatic lesion.
This trial tests a new tool that looks at gut bacteria to help find colorectal cancer earlier. It's for people who already had a positive result on a standard stool test (FIT) as part of a national screening program.
