PD-L1 in colorectal cancer study
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at a protein called PD-L1 in tumors of people newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer. The aim is to understand how this protein might relate to the cancer, before any surgery is done.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have been recently diagnosed with colorectal cancer.
- Your cancer could be at any stage (early or advanced).
- You must not have had surgery yet for your colorectal cancer.
- You must be a patient at South Egypt Cancer Institute or Assiut University Hospital.

This trial tests a new type of imaging scan (PD-L1 PET/CT) that may help doctors better see and understand cancers. The scan uses a special tracer to highlight cancer cells in your body, which could help guide treatment decisions.
This trial tests a medicine called PD-1 (a type of immunotherapy that helps your immune system fight cancer), sometimes with chemotherapy, before surgery for a certain type of colorectal cancer. It is for people whose tumors have a specific DNA repair problem (dMMR or MSI-H) and whose cancer has not spread to distant organs.
This Phase 1 trial tests a new experimental drug (PF-08046054/SGN-PDL1V) in people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatment or can’t use it. It is designed to see how the drug works and how safe it is, with a focus on tumors that have PD-L1 seen on prior lab testing.
This trial tests giving PD-1 immunotherapy with chemotherapy before surgery for locally advanced rectal cancer. It aims to shrink the tumor and improve outcomes for patients who haven't had prior cancer treatment.
This trial is monitoring changes in a cancer protein called PD-L1 in head and neck cancer patients before and during immunotherapy treatment. It aims to better understand how well immunotherapy will work by using regular blood tests.
This trial tests a new therapy where immune cells (TILs) from your tumor are modified to fight cancer more effectively. It's for people with advanced colorectal cancer who can't get standard treatments.
