New drug cocktail aims to shrink Hard-to-Treat colorectal tumors

NCT ID NCT07683949

First seen Jul 06, 2026 · Last updated Jul 07, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This clinical trial is testing whether combining two drugs—capecitabine (a chemotherapy pill) and lenvatinib (a targeted therapy)—can shrink tumors in people with advanced colorectal cancer that has stopped responding to standard treatments. The study enrolls adults aged 19 and older with metastatic or unresectable colorectal cancer. In the first phase, researchers find the best dose of lenvatinib; in the second phase, they measure how many patients' tumors shrink or disappear.
