Clinical Trials for Colon Cancer

An Open-label Randomized Phase 3 Study of Tucatinib in Combination With Trastuzumab and mFOLFOX6 Versus mFOLFOX6 Given With or Without Either Cetuximab or Bevacizumab as First-line Treatment for Subjects With HER2+ Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

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.

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: This trial enrolls adults with previously untreated, HER2-positive, RAS wild-type metastatic colorectal cancer to compare standard first-line mFOLFOX6-based regimens versus mFOLFOX6 combined with trastuzumab and tucatinib, a selective oral HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitor. Eligible patients may have stable, treated brain metastases.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05253651

An Open-label, Randomized, Multi-Center Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Induction Treatment With Melphalan/HDS Followed by Consolidation Treatment With Trifluridine-Tipiracil Plus Bevacizumab Versus Trifluridine-Tipiracil Plus Bevacizumab Alone in Patients With Refractory Metastatic Colorectal Cancer With Liver Dominant Disease

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.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer and liver-dominant disease (≤50% liver involvement; limited extrahepatic disease allowed; ECOG 0–1) are randomized to induction hepatic-directed high-dose melphalan via the Delcath system (regional chemotherapy that isolates hepatic circulation to intensify cytotoxic exposure) followed by trifluridine–tipiracil plus bevacizumab, versus trifluridine–tipiracil plus bevacizumab alone. Prior exposure to fluoropyrimidine, oxaliplatin, irinotecan, anti-VEGF, and anti-EGFR (if RAS WT) is required; key exclusions include significant hepatic dysfunction, portal/venous thrombosis, major cardiopulmonary comorbidity, prior arterial liver-directed therapy, and peritoneal disease.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06607458

A Randomized Phase 2 Trial of Flat Dose vs. Weight-based Dose of Intra-peritoneal (IP) Chemotherapy for Patients Undergoing Cytoreductive Surgery and Heated Intra-peritoneal Chemotherapy (CRS/HIPEC) for Advanced Gastrointestinal Malignancy

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.

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 peritoneal carcinomatosis from colorectal or appendiceal primaries undergoing cytoreductive surgery are randomized to HIPEC mitomycin C given as a fixed total dose (40 mg) versus weight-based dosing (12.5 mg/m2). Both arms use mitomycin C, a DNA crosslinking cytotoxic antibiotic, with the study focused on pharmacokinetics and potential reduction of systemic exposure/toxicity.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04779554

A Multicenter, Open-label Phase 1/2 Dose Finding, Safety, and Pharmacokinetic Study of MBRC-201, an Antibody-drug Conjugate, in Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors

High burden on patient

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with advanced/metastatic solid tumors refractory to standard therapy (mCRPC, metastatic breast cancer subtypes including TNBC, HR+/HER2− or HER2-low, HR−/HER2+, NSCLC, CRC, PDAC) receive MBRC-201, an investigational antibody‑drug conjugate targeting a tumor-associated antigen and delivering a likely topoisomerase I inhibitor payload. Requires ECOG 0–2 and measurable disease in expansion/Phase 2; excludes active CNS disease and prior camptothecin‑payload ADCs in later phases.

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07145255

A Single-Arm, Phase II Study of Autophagy Modulation Using Hydroxychloroquine in Combination With Encorafenib and Cetuximab or Panitumumab in Metastatic BRAF-mutated Colorectal Cancer Refractory to Standard Therapies

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.

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, BRAF V600E–mutated colorectal cancer after at least one prior systemic therapy (no prior BRAF/MEK inhibitors; ECOG 0–1; stable treated brain mets allowed) receive encorafenib plus an anti-EGFR antibody (cetuximab or panitumumab) combined with hydroxychloroquine. Hydroxychloroquine is an autophagy/lysosomal inhibitor intended to overcome resistance to MAPK pathway blockade and potentially enhance response to BRAF/EGFR-targeted therapy.
