Phase 3 Trials
Chemotherapy
Vitamin D3 + Chemotherapy + Bevacizumab for Colorectal Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Hot Springs, Arkansas
This trial is testing if vitamin D3 along with regular cancer drugs and another drug that helps the immune system can better treat colorectal cancer that has spread. Vitamin D3 may help the body use essential minerals, making the cancer drugs more effective. Vitamin D3 has been shown to slow down cancer cell growth and help them mature, and it has been effective in reducing intestinal tumors in animal studies.
Chemotherapy
ctDNA Testing for Colon Cancer Treatment Prediction
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2 & 3
Hot Springs, Arkansas
This trial tests how well ctDNA testing in the blood predicts treatment for patients with stage IIA colon cancer after surgery. ctDNA are circulating tumor cells that are shed by tumors into the blood. Finding ctDNA in the blood means that there is very likely some small amounts of cancer that remain after surgery. However, this cancer, if detected, cannot be found on other tests usually used to find cancer, as it is too small. Testing for ctDNA levels may help identify patients with colon cancer after surgery who do benefit, and those who do not benefit, from receiving chemotherapy.
Nivolumab for Anal Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Hot Springs, Arkansas
This trial tests how well nivolumab works in treating patients with anal cancer after they've received other treatments. Nivolumab may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may prevent tumor cells from growing and spreading.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy + Atezolizumab for Colon Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Hot Springs, Arkansas
This trial is testing whether adding atezolizumab to standard chemotherapy works better than chemotherapy alone for patients with stage III colon cancer who have a specific genetic defect. The chemotherapy drugs aim to kill cancer cells, while atezolizumab helps the immune system attack the cancer. Researchers hope this combination will improve survival rates and quality of life for these patients.
Small Molecule
MRTX849 + Cetuximab for Colorectal Cancer
Recruiting2 awardsPhase 3
Temple, Texas
This trial is testing a new treatment for patients with colorectal cancer. The treatment combines two drugs that work together to block cancer growth and prevent its spread. One of the drugs has shown promise in treating other types of cancer as well.
Trials With No Placebo
Monoclonal Antibodies
BDC-1001 + Nivolumab for Breast Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1 & 2
San Antonio, Texas
This trial tests a new drug, BDC-1001, alone and with another drug, in patients with advanced HER2-positive cancers. BDC-1001 aims to attack cancer cells directly, and the other drug boosts the immune system to fight the cancer.
mTOR Inhibitor
eRapa for Adenomatous Polyposis
Recruiting1 awardPhase 2
San Antonio, Texas
This trial tests Encapsulated Rapamycin (eRapa) taken by mouth to help patients with Familial Adenomatous Polyposis (FAP) reduce the number of polyps in their colon. The medication works by slowing down cell growth, aiming to manage this genetic condition more effectively. Rapamycin has shown potential in early research for preventing the development of polyps in FAP.
Chemotherapy
Vitamin D3 + Chemotherapy + Bevacizumab for Colorectal Cancer

Vitamin D3 may help the body use essential minerals, making the cancer drugs more effective. Vitamin D3 has been shown to slow down cancer cell growth and help them mature, and it has been effective in reducing intestinal tumors in animal studies.

Monoclonal Antibodies
Fc-Engineered Anti-CTLA-4 Monoclonal Antibody for Advanced Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
San Antonio, Texas
This trial is testing two new drugs that help the immune system fight cancer. It targets adults with advanced cancers that haven't responded to other treatments. The drugs work by blocking proteins that usually prevent the immune system from attacking cancer cells.
XL092 + Immunotherapy for Cancer
Recruiting1 awardPhase 1
San Antonio, Texas
This trial is testing a new drug called XL092 by itself and with two other drugs, atezolizumab and avelumab. It targets patients with advanced solid tumors who may not respond to current treatments. XL092 aims to stop cancer cells from growing, while atezolizumab and avelumab help the immune system fight the cancer. Atezolizumab is approved for various cancers, including breast and urothelial carcinoma, and has shown efficacy in combination with chemotherapy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need insurance to participate in a trial?
Almost all clinical trials will cover the cost of the 'trial drug' — so no insurance is required for this. For trials where this trial drug is given alongside an already-approved medication, there may be a cost (which your insurance would normally cover).
Is there any support for travel costs?
Many of the teams running clinical trials will cover the cost of transportation to-and-from their care center.
Will I know what medication I am taking?
This depends on the specific study. If you're worried about receiving a placebo, you can actively filter out these trials using our search.
How long do clinical trials last?
Some trials will only require a single visit, while others will continue until your disease returns. It's fairly common for a trial to last somewhere between 1 and 6 months.
Do you verify all the trials on your website?
All of the trials listed on Power have been formally registered with the US Food and Drug Administration. Beyond this, some trials on Power have been formally 'verified' if the team behind the trial has completed an additional level of verification with our team.
How quickly will I hear back from a clinical trial?
Sadly, this response time can take anywhere from 6 hours to 2 weeks. We're working hard to speed up how quickly you hear back — in general, verified trials respond to patients within a few days.
