COLO-RECTAL CANCER

This large, late-stage trial is testing whether immediately using aggressive treatments like radiation to destroy all visible cancer spread sites helps people live longer than waiting six months. It's for adults with lung, prostate, or colorectal cancer that has spread to 10 or f…

This is the first study in people to test a new experimental cancer drug called ALX2004. It aims to find a safe dose and see if the drug can help control advanced cancers that have spread and stopped responding to other treatments. The trial will enroll about 170 adults with spec…

This study is testing whether an artificial intelligence (AI) tool can help surgeons better plan care for people having surgery for colorectal cancer. About 1,200 patients in Denmark will be randomly assigned to have their surgery care plan made either by a surgeon alone or by a …

This early-stage study is testing a new type of cancer drug called MBRC-201 in people with advanced solid tumors that have stopped responding to standard treatments. The main goals are to find a safe and effective dose and to see how the body processes the drug. The study will en…

This study is testing how well a new blood test can find colon cancer in people at average risk. Researchers will compare the blood test results to findings from a standard colonoscopy in 25,000 participants. The goal is to see if the blood test is accurate enough to be used as a…

This study is evaluating the performance of the Shield blood test for colon cancer screening in average-risk adults. It will enroll 3,375 people aged 45-81 to see how well the blood test detects cancer and pre-cancerous growths compared to a colonoscopy. The goal is to gather mor…

This study is testing a new blood test to see if it can accurately detect colorectal cancer and precancerous growths called adenomas. It aims to provide a less invasive screening option to help find these conditions earlier. The test will also be evaluated for people with Lynch s…

This study is testing a training program designed to help people who have a permanent colostomy feel more confident and capable in managing their stoma care and social life. It will involve 70 adults in Turkey who have had colorectal cancer surgery. The goal is to see if this edu…

This study aims to improve how we predict who might get cancer and detect its return very early, before symptoms or scans show it. Researchers will analyze blood and tissue samples from 850 people with or at risk for breast, ovarian, colon, lung, or skin cancer. The goal is to fi…

This study is testing whether a new app with videos and games is better than traditional paper instructions for teaching people how to prepare for a colonoscopy. Researchers want to see if the app improves how well people clean their bowels and if they find the instructions more …

This study is testing a new, less invasive robotic surgery system that uses just one small opening instead of several. Researchers at UC Davis will perform colorectal surgeries on 25 patients using this single-port robot and compare their recovery and safety results to patients w…

This study aims to understand and overcome barriers that prevent people from getting screened for colorectal cancer. Researchers will work with staff at four community health centers to identify challenges and test new strategies, like text message reminders, to make screening ea…
