Clinical Trials for Colon Cancer

(ID-COMET) A Randomized Phase III Trial of Immediate Versus Six-Month Delayed Comprehensive Treatment of 1-10 Oligometastatic Tumors With or Without Synchronous Primary

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults and children (ECOG 0–3) with newly diagnosed oligometastatic lung, colorectal, or prostate cancer (1–10 lesions; brain mets excluded) are randomized to immediate stereotactic ablative radiotherapy (SABR) to all treatable sites plus standard systemic therapy versus initial standard therapy with SABR delayed ~6 months; a separate cohort allows immediate SABR for broader oligometastatic/oligoprogressive disease. Compares survival/ADT-free survival and safety/quality of life while standard systemic regimens are given per tumor type.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06563388

A Phase 1/2 Study of IDE196 in Patients with Solid Tumors Harboring GNAQ/11 Mutations or PRKC Fusions

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with metastatic uveal melanoma or other solid tumors harboring GNAQ/GNA11 mutations or PRKC fusions (ECOG 0–1) receive the oral pan–PKC inhibitor darovasertib (IDE196) as monotherapy or combined with binimetinib (MEK inhibitor) or crizotinib (MET/ALK/ROS1 inhibitor). Key exclusions include prior PKC inhibitor use and, for crizotinib cohorts, prior ALK/MET/ROS1 inhibitors and ILD/pneumonitis; HLA-A*02:01–positive uveal melanoma patients should have considered tebentafusp first line.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with advanced/metastatic solid tumors, including biomarker-selected cohorts (e.g., ATM loss/alterations; platinum‑resistant high‑grade serous ovarian cancer; selected endometrial, colorectal, and pancreatic cancers), after appropriate standard therapies. Investigational therapy is ART0380, an oral ATR kinase inhibitor exploiting replication-stress/synthetic lethality, given as monotherapy or combined with gemcitabine or irinotecan; includes a randomized cohort of platinum‑resistant ovarian cancer comparing ART0380+gemcitabine versus gemcitabine.

Adaptive, Individualized Dose Escalation of Fluorouracil-Based Chemotherapy for Gastrointestinal Cancer: Pilot Study of the FOX Regimen

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with metastatic or locally advanced/inoperable GI cancers (colorectal and non-colorectal; ECOG 0–1; excluding dMMR/MSI-H, known DPD deficiency, and prior oxaliplatin/fluoropyrimidine) receive an oxaliplatin/leucovorin backbone with infusional 5-FU, using an adaptive algorithm to escalate 5-FU from 2,400 to up to 3,200 mg/m2 over early cycles based on tolerance. Investigational aspect is individualized 5-FU dose escalation within a FOLFOX-like regimen to optimize dose intensity and assess response, PFS, and PK correlations.
