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.

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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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)
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.
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.
