COLORECTAL CARCINOMA

This registry followed 152 patients with colorectal cancer that had spread mainly to the liver. Doctors used tiny beads called LifePearl Microspheres loaded with the chemotherapy drug irinotecan, delivered directly to the liver's blood supply. The goal was to see how and when thi…

This early-phase study tested a combination of two drugs, cabozantinib and TAS-102, in 15 people with advanced colorectal cancer that had spread and stopped responding to standard treatments. The main goal was to find the safest dose and identify side effects. The study is comple…

This early-phase study tests two experimental drugs, BI 765049 and ezabenlimab, in adults with advanced solid tumors like colorectal, lung, and pancreatic cancer. The main goal is to find the highest safe dose of BI 765049 alone and in combination with ezabenlimab. Participants r…

This study tested a special pump placed under the skin that sends chemotherapy directly to the liver through the hepatic artery. It was for people with colorectal cancer that had spread to the liver and who had already tried other chemotherapies. The goal was to see if this direc…

This study tested a combination of nivolumab (Opdivo) and trametinib (Mekinist), with or without ipilimumab (Yervoy), in 325 people whose colorectal cancer had spread and had not responded to prior treatments. The main goals were to check safety and see if the drugs could shrink …

This study tested whether sending personalized text messages could help colorectal cancer survivors eat more whole grains and less refined grains. Forty-six survivors who had finished active treatment received text messages and nutrition materials. The main goal was to see if peo…

This study looked at whether cancer survivors living in rural areas can create their own survivorship care plans and learn from telehealth education. 261 survivors of breast, colorectal, lung, lymphoma, or prostate cancer took part. The goal was to see if this approach improves t…

This study looked at tiny particles called microparticles in the blood of 41 people with colorectal cancer that had spread to the lining of the abdomen. The goal was to see if these particles could serve as a better way to detect this spread early, compared to current tests. Rese…

This pilot study tested whether advanced genetic sequencing of tumors can be done quickly enough to guide treatment decisions. Researchers took blood and tumor samples from 24 adults with advanced soft-tissue sarcoma or metastatic colorectal cancer. They measured how long it took…
