What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published

Summary

This study tests whether adding a non-invasive sound wave treatment (histotripsy) to standard chemotherapy can help people with advanced colorectal cancer that has spread to the liver. About 100 adults whose cancer cannot be removed by surgery will receive both treatments. The goal is to see if the combination improves how long the cancer stays under control.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participants with liver-confined colorectal cancer liver metastasis (CRLM) or participants who have low-volume pulmonary disease along with CRLM * Participants receiving first line therapy with base of 5-FU with either oxaliplatin or irinotecan, or who are within 3 months of beginning chemotherapy, or participants who have completed chemotherapy treatment within 1 month of the histotripsy evaluation * Participants who have undergone other liver-directed therapy, such as ablation, embolization * Participants with multiple unresectable metastases that cannot be completely treated with resection and/or ablation * Participants aged ≥18 years Exclusion Criteria: * Participants with resectable disease * Participants with non-pulmonary extra-hepatic disease including but not limited to bone or peritoneal metastasis. * Participants who are not able to tolerate general anesthesia * Participants who have Childs C Cirrhosis * Other non-skin malignancy within 2 years of study * WBC count \< 3,000 /uL * Absolute Neutrophil Count \< 1,500 /uL * History of Non-malignant serious concurrent illness that would increase the risk of histotripsy * Participants with MSI-High * Participants aged \< 18 years * Pregnant participants
