New study aims to predict who benefits from abdominal cancer surgery
NCT ID NCT07474025
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at how colorectal cancer grows when it spreads to the lining of the abdomen. Researchers want to see if the pattern of tumor growth can help doctors decide who will benefit most from surgery. The study will follow 30 adults who are already scheduled for surgery or a staging procedure. It does not change standard care, but aims to improve future treatment decisions.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a better way to predict which patients benefit most from surgery for colorectal cancer that has spread to the abdomen.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early observational study with only 30 participants. It does not test a new treatment, so it may not directly change patient care or outcomes.
