The purpose of this study is to determine the putative recommended phase 2 dose(s) (RP2Ds) and best way to take (optimal route of administration) JNJ-89402638 and to determine the safety of JNJ-89402638 at the RP2D(s) in participants with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) and metastatic gastric cancer (mGAC) and to determine the safety and tolerability of JNJ-89402638 in combination with bevacizumab or biosimilar with or without chemotherapy in participants with mCRC.
NCT07628998
Colorectal cancer is a leading cause of mortality in Catalonia. Although early detection programs using the fecal immunochemical test (FIT) are effective in reducing both incidence and mortality, their success relies on high population participation. Currently, in the Vallès Occidental region, the participation rate stands at 42%, which is below the 65% minimum recommended by European health authorities. The objective of this randomized controlled trial is to evaluate whether sending a reminder text message (SMS) is an effective tool to increase participation in the screening program. The study will include 10,084 participants aged between 50 and 69 years. Half of the participants will receive a reminder SMS five weeks after their initial invitation, while the other half will follow the standard of care involving postal letters. Researchers anticipate that this strategy will not only increase the number of individuals undergoing screening but also shorten the response time and reduce the need for sending postal reminders
NCT06342440
This study aims to develop a highly sensitive, specific, and cost-effective blood assay for early detection of colorectal adenomas and cancer, using advanced machine learning and state-of-the-art biological analyses.
NCT06662786
The purpose of this study is to compare how long the participants are disease-free (progression-free survival) when treated with amivantamab and chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium (folinic acid) or levoleucovorin, oxaliplatin (mFOLFOX6) or 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin calcium (folinic acid) or levoleucovorin, and irinotecan hydrochloride (FOLFIRI) versus cetuximab and mFOLFOX6 or FOLFIRI in adult participants with Kirsten rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog (KRAS)/ Neuroblastoma RAS viral oncogene homolog (NRAS) and v-Raf murine sarcoma viral oncogene homolog B1 (BRAF) wild type (WT) unresectable or metastatic left-sided colorectal cancer.
NCT06704724
The purpose of this study is to learn about the safety and effects of the study medicine when given alone or together with other anti-cancer therapies. Anti-cancer therapy is a type of treatment to stop the growth of cancer. This study also aims to find the best amount of study medication. This study is seeking participants who have solid tumors (a mass of abnormal cells that forms a lump or growth in the body) that: * are advanced (cancer that doesn't disappear or stay away with treatment) and * have a KRAS gene mutation (a change in the DNA of the KRAS gene that can cause cells to grow in very high numbers). This includes (but limited to) the following cancer types: * Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC): It's a type of lung cancer where the cells grow slowly but often spread to other parts of the body. * Colorectal Cancer (CRC): This is a disease where cells in the colon (a part of large intestine) or rectum grow out of control. * Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC): This is a cancer that starts in the ducts of the pancreas but can spread quickly to other parts of the body. Pancreas is a long, flat gland that lies in the abdomen behind the stomach. Pancreas creates enzymes that help with digestion. It also makes hormones that can help control your blood sugar levels. All participants in this study will take the study medication (PF-07985045) as pill by mouth. This will be repeated for 21-day or 28-day cycles. Depending on which part of the study participants are enrolled into they will receive the study medication (PF-07985045 alone or in combination with other anti-cancer medications). These anti-cancer medications will be given in the study clinic by intravenous (IV) that is directly injected into the veins at different times (depending on the treatment) during the 21-day or 28-day cycle. Participants can continue to take the study medication (PF-07985045) and the combination anti-cancer therapy until their cancer is no longer responding. The study will look at the experiences of people receiving the study medicines. This will help see if the study medicines are safe and effective. Participants will be in this study for up to 4 years. During this time, the participants will come into the clinic for 1 to 4 times in each 21-day or 28-day cycle. After the participants have stopped taking the study medication (at about at 2 years) they will be followed for another two years to see how they are doing
NCT04921488
Artificial Intelligence (AI) to predict the histology of polyps per colonoscopy, offers a promising solution to reduce variation in colonoscopy performance. This new and innovative non-invasive technology will improve the quality of screening colonoscopies, and reduce the costs of colorectal cancer screening. The aim of the study is to performed a cross-sectional, multi-center study evaluating the diagnostic performance of the CAD EYE automatic characterization system for the histology of colonic polyps in colorectal cancer screening colonoscopy.
NCT06380816
This clinical trial is looking at UCB4594. This is the first time the drug is being tested in humans. UCB4594 is a type of drug called a monoclonal antibody. It has been designed to work by targeting a protein called human leucocyte antigen G (HLA-G) that is found in high levels on some cancer cells. By attaching itself to this protein it may help the immune system to attack and kill the cancer cells. The four main aims of the clinical trial are to find out: 1. The best dose of UCB4594 that can be given safely to participants in the trial. 2. What the side effects of UCB4594 are and how they can be managed. 3. What happens to UCB4594 inside the body and how it affects cancer cells. 4. Whether UCB4594 can cause cancer to shrink.

Correlation and Heterogeneity of the Immune Microenvironment and Histopathological Growth Patterns in Resectable Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastases
NCT07563166
This study aims to characterize the clinical and pathological features of early-onset colorectal cancer (EO-CRC; diagnosis at age ≤50) and to identify factors associated with more advanced tumor stage. The investigators will compare patients with early-stage disease (high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia, carcinoma in situ \[Tis\], and T1) to those with later-stage disease (T2 and above) to identify characteristics predictive of advanced staging. Adults aged ≤50 years with a pathological diagnosis of colorectal cancer or high-grade intraepithelial neoplasia at Shenzhen Hospital, Southern Medical University between January 2016 and September 2025 will be eligible for inclusion if clinical, endoscopic, and pathology records are available. This retrospective observational study will use existing medical records; no experimental treatments or additional procedures will be performed. De-identified information will be extracted from medical records, including demographics, symptoms, lifestyle factors, laboratory tests, endoscopic and imaging findings, pathology reports, treatments received, and follow-up outcomes. Data will be handled securely, stored using subject codes, and analyzed to compare groups and to develop statistical models that identify independent risk factors for advanced tumor stage. Participation involves no direct contact or additional testing for participants and poses minimal risk because only previously collected, de-identified data are used. Findings may inform improvements in early detection, risk stratification, and management strategies for younger patients with colorectal neoplasia.
NCT05396846
The MyBestGI study evaluates three different approaches that could help people eat in healthier ways. The study seeks to enroll 240 overweight and obese persons who have risk factors for colorectal cancers such as a family or personal history of colorectal cancers or adenomatous polyps. The study website is www.MyBestGI.org . Participants in the study will be asked to follow one of three eating plans, as best they can, for 12 months. Study participants can choose the foods they prefer within healthy food groups. Two of the eating plans involve ten brief telephone support calls and use of a web-based app (MyBestGI App). The study primarily evaluates improvements in eating and any weight change that may result. Secondary goals for the research are to evaluate how changes in eating affect metabolic pathways. All study participants will receive written materials that encourage making room for preventive foods in your daily eating. All participants also receive the results of their own diet analyses, and results of their own measures at study visits. The measures are the Veggie Meter skin reflectance test, Ketoscan breath test, and body composition measures. Study visits also involve providing a small blood sample from the arm. Study visits are in Ann Arbor at the start of the study, and at 6 and 12 months. The long-term goal of this research is to provide better options for supporting individuals who seek to achieve and maintain a preventive style of eating.
NCT07541924
Colonoscopy is the cornerstone for colorectal cancer screening, diagnosis, and post-treatment surveillance. Procedural quality is influenced by patient anatomy, particularly variations in colonic configuration such as sigmoid redundancy, looping, and low-lying transverse colon. These features prolong insertion time, increase patient discomfort, and elevate physician workload. Evidence suggests that prior CT imaging can provide objective and individualized information on colonic anatomy-such as redundancy, angulation, and tortuosity-potentially predicting procedural difficulty. However, existing studies are mainly retrospective or descriptive, lacking prospective randomized evidence on clinical utility. This single-blind, randomized controlled trial evaluates whether image-assisted colonoscope insertion, based on pre-existing abdominal/pelvic CT scans, can improve cecal intubation time, enhance patient experience, reduce operator workload, and improve overall examination quality compared with standard colonoscopy.
NCT07222800
The purpose of this study is to learn more about a new medicine called PF-08634404, and how well it works in people with cancer of the colon or rectum (CRC)). The goal is to understand if the new study medicine, combined with chemotherapy that is approved for colorectal cancer, can help people whose cancer has spread or returned after treatments taken before. To join the study, participants must meet the following conditions: * Be 18 years or older. * Have colorectal cancer that has spread to other parts of your body. * Be in good enough health to receive study treatment. * Should not be pregnant before starting treatment. Participants will be randomized (like flipping a coin) to one of 2 different treatment arms. The first arm (Arm A) will include the new medicine PF-08634404 in combination with chemotherapy that is approved for colorectal cancer, and the second arm (Arm B) will include an approved medicine for colorectal cancer, called Bevacizumab, in combination with chemotherapy that is approved for this type of cancer. Participants and their doctors will not know which arm they are being assigned to. Participants will receive all the study medications through intravenous (IV) infusions, which means the medicine is given directly into a vein. The treatment will be given in cycles, and participants may continue receiving it if it is helping and they are not experiencing serious side effects. The medicine will be given at a clinical site, where trained medical staff will check participants during and after each treatment. * The study is expected to last approximately 33 months for each participant. * Participants will have regular visits to the study site for treatment, health checks, and tests. * After stopping treatment, participants will return for a final visit about 30 to37 days later to check their health and review any side effects. * Follow-up will continue every 12 weeks by phone or in person or by reviewing health records to check on health status and any new treatments.
NCT05571839
This study will test the safety of a drug called PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 in participants with melanoma and other solid tumors that are hard to treat or have spread through the body. It will also study the side effects of this drug. A side effect is anything a drug does to the body besides treating the disease. This study will have 3 parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 should be given to participants. Part C will use the information from Parts A and B to see if PF-08046049/SGN-BB228 is safe and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.
NCT07535632
This phase II trial studies how well stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) followed by a combination of an immune checkpoint inhibitor (sintilimab), bevacizumab, and trifluridine/tipiracil (TAS-102) works as third-line treatment for patients with recurrent or metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) that has progressed after at least two prior lines of systemic therapy. The study will enroll 58 participants at Zhongshan Hospital, Fudan University. Participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to either the experimental group or the control group. Those in the experimental group will receive SBRT to lung or liver metastases, followed one week later by sintilimab (200 mg every 2 weeks), bevacizumab (5 mg/kg every 2 weeks), and TAS-102 (35 mg/m² twice daily on days 1-5 every 2 weeks). Those in the control group will receive the investigator's choice of standard third-line therapy (such as TAS-102 alone or with bevacizumab, regorafenib, or fruquintinib). The main purpose is to see whether the new combination extends the time without the cancer growing or spreading (progression-free survival, PFS). Other goals include measuring overall survival, tumor response rates, local control of treated tumors, abscopal (out-of-field) effects, safety, quality of life, and exploring biomarkers that might predict treatment response. The study is expected to take 24 months to complete (12 months for enrollment and 12 months for follow-up). Results will help determine if adding SBRT and immunotherapy to standard chemotherapy and anti-angiogenic therapy is a beneficial option for patients with refractory mCRC.
NCT07089771
People with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), such as ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease affecting the colon, have a higher risk of developing colon cancer over time. To catch early signs of cancer, regular colonoscopies are recommended. In this study, the investigators are comparing two advanced methods of examining the colon during these surveillance colonoscopies. One method uses a special dye sprayed inside the colon to highlight abnormal areas (called dye-based chromoendoscopy). The other method uses new technology built into the camera to enhance the view without needing any dye (called virtual chromoendoscopy). Both methods use modern, high-definition equipment. The purpose of this study is to find out if the newer, dye-free method is as good as the traditional dye method at detecting pre-cancerous changes (called dysplasia) in people with IBD. Adults with IBD who are due for a routine surveillance colonoscopy may be invited to take part. Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. No additional procedures are involved, and only the way the colon is viewed differs. The investigators will also look at how long the procedures take, how many biopsies are needed, any complications, and how patients experience the exam. Participants will be followed over time using national health records to check for long-term outcomes. This research will help doctors better understand which method is most effective and comfortable for patients, and may guide future recommendations for cancer screening in people with IBD.
NCT03485209
This trial will study tisotumab vedotin to find out whether it is an effective treatment alone or with other anticancer drugs for certain solid tumors and what side effects (unwanted effects) may occur. There are seven parts to this study. * In Part A, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin every 3 weeks (3-week cycles). * In Part B, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin on Days 1, 8, and 15 every 4-week cycle. * In Part C, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin on Days 1 and 15 of every 4-week cycle. * In Part D, participants will be given treatment on Day 1 of every 3-week cycle. * Participants in Part D will get tisotumab vedotin with either: * Pembrolizumab or, * Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or * Pembrolizumab and cisplatin * In Part E, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin on Days 1 and 15 of every 4-week cycle. * In Part F, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin on Days 1, 15, and 29 of every 6-week cycle. Participants in Part F will get tisotumab vedotin with pembrolizumab. * In Part G, participants will receive tisotumab vedotin on Days 1, 15, and 29 of every 6-week cycle. Participants in Part G will get tisotumab vedotin with pembrolizumab and carboplatin. The objectives of the study have been achieved. Therefore, the study will transition to a long-term extension phase (LTEP). * In LTEP, participants still receiving clinical benefit based on the investigator's assessment and remaining on treatment may continue receiving treatment. * Participants will still receive tisotumab vedotin with either: * Pembrolizumab or, * Pembrolizumab and carboplatin, or * Pembrolizumab and cisplatin
NCT02439008
This study will follow-up immune cell populations, secreted factors and released nanovesicles in the blood before, during and after high dose radiation therapy which should give new information of the efficacy of the hypofractionated high dose radiation therapy and a rationale for adjuvant immunotherapy.
NCT05239741
In this study, Chinese participants with MSI-H or dMMR advanced colorectal cancer will be assigned to receive either pembrolizumab or the Investigator's choice of 1 of 6 standard of care (SOC) chemotherapy regimens for treatment. There is no hypothesis testing for this study.
NCT07440290
This clinical trial is looking at two drugs called dabrafenib and trametinib. Dabrafenib and trametinib are approved as standard of care treatment for adult patients with melanoma (a type of skin cancer) or lung cancer and in children with glioma (a type of brain tumour). This means they have gone through clinical trials and been approved by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) in the UK. Dabrafenib and trametinib work in patients with a particular mutation in their cancer known as BRAF V600. Investigators now wish to find out if they will be useful in treating patients with other cancer types which have the same mutation. If the results are positive, the study team will work with the NHS and the Cancer Drugs Fund to see if these drugs can be routinely accessed for patients in the future. This trial is part of a trial programme called DETERMINE. The programme will also look at other anti-cancer drugs in the same way, through matching the drug to rare cancer types or ones with specific mutations.
NCT07307547
This study is a multi-center, randomized controlled trial designed to evaluate whether an artificial intelligence (AI) system can assist endoscopists to improve the detection rate of colorectal adenomas and cancers during colonoscopy compared to standard colonoscopy. Early screening and diagnosis are key to reducing the burden of colorectal cancer, but current colonoscopy has limitations, including the risk of missed lesions. This trial aims to determine if AI can enhance screening quality and diagnostic accuracy.
