Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

Research shows that low-dose Aspirin prevents diseases of heart and blood vessels as well as cancer of the colon and rectum and it is also associated with risk of bleeding. In this study, they want to learn how patients regard the benefits and risks of low-dose Aspirin for the prevention of these diseases. The researchers also want to learn how patients balance these risks and benefits.

Detection of progressive disease by neuropeptide Y (NPY) methylation in liquid biopsies in patients with RAS and BRAF wild-type, unresectable, metastatic colorectal cancer receiving first-line treatment FOLFOX/FOLFIRI and panitumumab.

Quality Improvement Project to evaluate how prehabilitation can be incorporated into our colorectal cancer pathway and assess its clinical benefits.

We aim to perform a register-based, observational cohort study to investigate whether it is safe to delay start of treatment with a curative intention after a colorectal cancer diagnosis. Our hypothesis is that delaying start of treatment until 4-8 weeks is as safe as starting treatment within four weeks after a colorectal cancer diagnosis.

Next Generation Sequencing in cancer: a feasibility study in France to assess sample circuit and to perform analyzes within a limited time.

The goal of this study is to find the best ways to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.

The primary objective of this study is to gather stool samples from subjects with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to be added to a test set of stool samples that will be utilized to help select molecular markers and determine the optimal sensitivity and specificity values for the Exact IBD-ACRN surveillance test for colorectal cancer (CRC).

The aim of this study is to compare the outcome of three (3) quantitative immunochemical faecal occult blood test in symptomatic patients.

The purpose of this study is to learn what cancer patients think about IBM Watson Oncology. IBM Watson Oncology is a computer program designed to help inform oncologists about the best chemotherapy choices for their patients. The investigators will conduct focus groups with cancer patients who have received chemotherapy treatment at MSK in order to understand cancer patients' thoughts about IBM Watson Oncology.

Gut microbiota were assessed in 540 colonoscopy-screened adults by 16S rRNA gene sequencing of stool samples. Investigators compared gut microbiota diversity, overall composition, and normalized taxon abundance among these groups.
