New hope for cancer patients with dangerous gene flaw: safer chemo combo tested
NCT ID NCT06245356
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a different chemotherapy drug (trifluridine/tipiracil) for people with metastatic colorectal or gastroesophageal cancer who have a genetic condition (DPD deficiency) that makes standard chemo very toxic. About 73 participants will receive this drug along with other targeted therapies. The main goal is to see if this approach causes fewer severe side effects like diarrhea, mouth sores, and dangerous drops in white blood cells.
