Growing tumor models from colorectal cancer and liver metastases
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study takes samples from colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver and grows them in the lab. The goal is to create models that can help researchers understand the cancer better and find new treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are 18 years old or older.
- You have been diagnosed with colorectal cancer that has spread to your liver.
- You are scheduled for surgery to remove both the colorectal tumor and the liver metastasis.

This study looks at MRI scans and tissue samples from people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. The goal is to find patterns that might predict whether the cancer will come back after surgery, which could help guide future treatment.
This study looks at tissue from colorectal cancer surgery to understand how cancer cells use energy, which may help find better treatments. It is open to adults having surgery for colorectal cancer or liver metastases from colorectal cancer.
This study focuses on people with colon cancer (CRC) that has spread to the liver. It looks at factors that may affect liver metastases and could help doctors better understand who may benefit from future treatments.
This trial is testing a computer program that helps doctors predict outcomes for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. It is for patients who have had surgery to remove both the colon and liver tumors.
This study looks at your tumor's genetic makeup and a blood test after surgery to better predict if colorectal cancer that spread to the liver might come back early. The goal is to personalize follow-up care and potentially guide additional treatments.
This trial studies liver transplantation for people with colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver but cannot be surgically removed. It aims to see if transplant can improve outcomes when the cancer is limited to the liver.
