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.
