Research and clinical trials for bowel cancer

Researchers are looking at new ways of improving surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, targeted and immunotherapy treatments for bowel cancer.

Our clinical trials database has open, closed and result summaries of trials in the UK.

Trials aim to find out if a new test or treatment is safe or works better than current ones.

Find out about what researchers should tell you before you agree to take part in a trial.

If you see a trial you're interested in, discuss it with your specialist or GP.
