NCT07543848
This study aims to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a combination treatment including a PD-1 inhibitor (serplulimab), oncolytic virus H101, short-course radiotherapy, and XELOX chemotherapy as total neoadjuvant therapy in patients with locally advanced low rectal cancer (cT1-3N0M0). In this prospective, multicenter, single-arm phase II study, eligible patients will receive a standardized treatment regimen consisting of intratumoral injection of oncolytic virus H101, short-course radiotherapy, chemotherapy, and immunotherapy over multiple cycles. Tumor response will be assessed using imaging, endoscopy, and clinical evaluation after completion of treatment. The primary objective is to determine the 1-year clinical complete response rate. Secondary outcomes include tumor response rate, organ preservation rate, survival outcomes, and treatment safety. The results of this study may help improve treatment strategies for rectal cancer, increase the rate of complete response, and provide more opportunities for organ preservation while maintaining safety.
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.
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.
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.

Can an effective predictive model be constructed based on these factors? Participants' clinical information has been collected for statistical analysis.
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.
NCT06379880
FEGALA is a comparative, multicenter, randomized, prospective, open-label study comparing the results observed at 3 months (± 15 days) on the EORTC QLQ-C30 scale in a group of patients with metastatic cancer followed on an outpatient basis and benefiting from the CONTINUUM+ CONNECT solution (with or without nursing support at home) versus comparable patients benefiting from conventional monitoring.
NCT06342401
Colorectal cancer (CRC) once predominantly affected older individuals, but in recent years has witnessed a progressive increase in incidence among young adults. Once rare, early-onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC, that is, a CRC diagnosed before the age of 50) now constitutes 10-15% of all newly diagnosed CRC cases and it stands as the first cause of cancer-related death in young men and the second for young women. This study aims to detect EOCRC with a non-invasive test, using a blood-based molecular assay based on microRNA (ribonucleic acid)
NCT07362823
Colorectal cancer is a globally prevalent malignant tumor. Postoperative patients often face physical discomfort, psychological stress, and lack of healthy lifestyles. However, traditional health education models have limitations such as insufficient targeting and poor interactivity, making it difficult to meet their needs for full-cycle health management. This study is a multicenter randomized controlled trial, which plans to enroll 174 patients aged 18 years and above who have undergone radical resection for colorectal cancer, and randomly divide them into an experimental group and a control group at a ratio of 1:1. The experimental group will receive Transtheoretical Model (TTM)-based metaverse lifestyle health education (including phased course learning, metaverse immersive interaction, and WeChat group check-in supervision) with an intervention cycle of 1 months and follow-up until 3 months after the intervention; the control group will only receive routine paper-based education and outpatient follow-up. The study aims to verify the improvement effect of this metaverse intervention model on the quality of life and healthy lifestyle of colorectal cancer survivors, and explore its role in improving patients' self-efficacy, so as to provide empirical evidence for optimizing long-term health management programs for cancer survivors.
NCT07361016
The goal of this observational comparative study is to assess whether laparoscopic complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation (L-CME with CVL) provides improved short-term surgical outcomes compared with open complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation (O-CME with CVL) in patients with right-sided colon cancer. The primary questions this study aims to answer are: Does laparoscopic CME with CVL reduce blood loss, postoperative complications, and length of hospital stay compared with open CME? Does laparoscopic CME with CVL achieve equivalent surgical specimen quality and short-term oncological outcomes compared to the open approach? Researchers compared laparoscopic versus open right hemicolectomy with CME and CVL in adult patients diagnosed with right colon cancer who were eligible for elective surgical resection. Participants underwent standard preoperative assessment, including clinical evaluation, laboratory testing, imaging studies, colonoscopy, and biopsy confirmation. Surgical treatment consisted of either laparoscopic or open complete mesocolic excision with central vascular ligation, performed according to standardized oncologic surgical principles. Postoperative care followed an enhanced recovery protocol. Primary outcome measures included operative time, intraoperative blood loss, time to first flatus, postoperative complications, and duration of hospital stay. Secondary outcomes included quality of the surgical specimen (lymph node yield, mesocolic integrity, and margin status) and short-term oncologic outcomes, including early recurrence during follow-up.
NCT05983133
This study will test the safety of a drug called PF-08046052/SGN-EGFRd2 in participants with advanced solid tumors. 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. Participants will have cancer that cannot be removed (unresectable) or has spread through the body (metastatic). This study will have three parts. Parts A and B of the study will find out how much PF-08046052/SGN-EGFRd2 should be given to participants. Part C will use the dose found in parts A and B to find out how safe PF-08046052/SGN-EGFRd2 is and if it works to treat solid tumor cancers.
NCT04457297
This trial is a randomized, double-blind, multinational Phase III study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of preemptive treatment with FTD/TPI compared with administration of placebo as follow-up, which is the standard of care, in patients who underwent curative resection of colorectal cancer and then tested positive for ctDNA.
NCT06603519
This study aims to investigate the impact of various healthy diets, specifically a modified plant-based Mediterranean diet, on the gut microbiome and overall well-being post-colonoscopy. The investigators hypothesize that certain diets can positively influence gut bacteria, reducing inflammation and enhancing metabolic signals. To explore this, they will utilize metagenomic testing on stool samples to analyze the DNA of gut microorganisms. Additionally, they will conduct immune profiling on serum samples and perform metabolomic analysis to comprehensively evaluate the diet-induced changes in immune response and metabolic pathways. This multi-faceted approach will help them understand how dietary changes affect the composition and function of the gut microbiome, immune function, and overall metabolism.
NCT06751329
The goal of study： The study has two parts: Part 1 Dose Escalation and Part 2 Dose Expansion. In Part 1, a few participants will receive the lowest dose of study drug. The study team will make sure it is safe and tolerated before enrolling new participants at a higher dose of study drug. There will be up to six or more dose levels of study drug tested (called cohorts). Which dose you receive will depend on how many participants have taken part in the study before you. The purpose of Part 1 of the study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug at different dose levels, to understand what your body does to the study drug, and to find the best dose of study drug in people who have advanced solid tumor cancers. In Part 2, participants will receive the best dose level that was determined in Part 1 of the study. The purpose of Part 2 of the study is to evaluate the safety of the study drug at the dose level determined in Part 1, to understand what your body does to the study drug, and to see how your cancer responds to the study drug. Participants will: Participants will have 17 or more visits to the study centre. This study has a screening phase of up to 28 days , and a treatment phase with cycles of 21 days each. Participants will also have an End of Treatment (EOT) visit 21 days after the final study drug treatment, and a Follow-up visit 30 days after the EOT visit . Participants will be contacted by telephone every 3 months after the Follow-up visit to check on the wellbeing and record any new anticancer therapy they may have started.
NCT05448846
The Exercise for COlorectal OLder patients (ECOOL program) is randomized controlled trial to assess the effects of an exercise program on physical function and health-related quality of life of patients 75 years and older with colorectal cancer undergoing surgery. ECOOL is a multicomponent home-based exercise intervention focused on the development of strength, balance, gait ability and inspiratory muscle function of older patients who receive weekly telephone follow-up from cancer diagnosis to 3 months after surgery. The investigators expect that ECOOL program will improve physical function and health-related quality of life of older patients 3 months after surgery and to maintain these benefits up to 6 months after surgery compared with the control group receiving usual care.
