Active clinical trials for "Colorectal Neoplasms"

This is a Phase II, multi-center study of GM-CT-01 which has been shown to increase the anti-tumor activity of 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) in mice. 5-FU is a chemotherapy drug commonly used in cancer patients. In this Phase II study, patients with colon cancer which has spread, despite treatment with approved therapies, will receive GM-CT-01 plus 5-FU in monthly cycles for at least 2 cycles or until their disease progresses.

The purpose of this study is to assess the Safety, Tolerability and Efficacy of ZD6126 in Combination with Oxaliplatin, 5-Fluorouracil and Leucovorin in Subjects with Metastatic Colorectal Cancer.

The triple combination chemotherapy of irinotecan, 5-fluorouracil and leucovorin (CPT-11/5-FU/LV or Saltz regimen) is the treatment of choice for patients with advanced colorectal cancer. Severe diarrhea, unfortunately, is a side effect of such treatment. Preclinical studies have indicated that the botanical drug PHY906 can reduce such diarrhea without compromising the effectiveness of the chemotherapy. The primary purpose of this clinical study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability and minimum effective dose of PHY906 when administered in conjunction with the Saltz regimen.

This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, global, multicenter, Phase 3 trial evaluating the impact of trilaciclib on myelopreservation and anti-tumor efficacy when administered prior to FOLFOXIRI/bevacizumab in patients with pMMR/MSS mCRC who have not received systemic therapy for metastatic disease.

This study will evaluate the efficacy and safety of alectinib in participants with Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase (ALK)-positive locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors other than lung cancer.

This study is designed to primarily evaluate the safety and efficacy of U3-1402 in participants with advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) who have received at least 2 prior lines of therapy and will explore clinical benefit according to human epidermal growth factor receptor 3 (HER3) tumor expression level in otherwise refractory tumors.

The overarching goals of the "PCSNaP" Research Study is to support the Abramson Cancer Center (ACC) of the University of Pennsylvania in carrying out its mission to increase colorectal cancer (CRC) screening completion among high-risk individuals living in a persistent poverty county by designing, conducting, disseminating and evaluating an electronic health record-based automated identification program to target effective, culturally-sensitive CRC screening navigation to individuals who have not completed an ordered colonoscopy or fecal immunochemical test (FIT).

Primary Objective: -Evaluate the resection rate (R0/R1) in current practice for aflibercept in combination with irinotecan plus 5-fluorouracil (FOLFIRI) in patients treated for metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC) after failure of an oxaliplatin-containing regimen Secondary Objectives: Evaluate overall survival, progression-free survival and relapse-free survival. Evaluate conversion rates (initially unresectable disease which became resectable after chemotherapy, with R0/R1 resection). Evaluate histological and radiological response rates. Evaluate rate of postoperative complications. Evaluate safety.

This study will include two parts: Phase I part is a dose-escalation study to assess the safety of increasing doses of TG6002 in combination with oral flucytosine (5-FC) in consecutive cohorts of 3 to 6 patients with colorectal cancer and unresectable liver metastases according to a 3+3 design Phase IIa part is an extension of the phase I part at the recommended phase II dose to evaluate the efficacy of TG6002 in combination with oral flucytosine (5-FC) in patients with colorectal cancer and unresectable liver metastases. In both parts, tumor response will be evaluated on local assessment using RECIST 1.1. All patients will be followed until disease progression, death due to any cause or the date of data cut-off, whichever occurs first.

The implementation of population screening programs for colorectal cancer (CRC) has led to a considerable increase in the prevalence T1 CRC originating on polyps amenable by endoscopy. The benefits of secondary oncological surgery in terms of disease free survival are not well established. Hypothesis: The characteristics of the individuals and the polyp (endoscopic, histological) should allow us to discriminate T1 CRCs that may benefit from secondary surgery from those that only require local treatment. With the current criteria, the management of patients with T1 CRC is suboptimal since a high proportion of patients are refered for unnecessary surgeries without a clear benefit in terms of survival. Molecular signatures can help to discriminate those patients with good prognosis that do not require secondary surgery nor cancer related follow up.
