Virus therapy takes on tough colorectal cancer in new trial

NCT ID NCT07446322

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 16, 2026 · Updated 2 times

Summary

This study tests whether adding a virus-based drug (pelareorep) to standard chemotherapy can help people with a specific type of advanced colorectal cancer that has stopped responding to initial treatment. About 60 adults whose cancer has spread and has certain genetic features (RAS mutation, MSS) will be randomly assigned to receive either standard chemo plus the virus or standard chemo alone. The goal is to see if the combination shrinks tumors better and improves survival.
