Summary

This early-phase study tests whether adding a natural compound called hydroxytyrosol (found in olives) to standard chemotherapy can help people with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer. About 33 adults will receive the combination to check safety and see if tumors shrink. The goal is to control the disease, not cure it, as treatment continues until progression or side effects become too severe.
