This study is building a registry — a database of clinical and genetic information — from adults who had surgery for colorectal cancer (cancer of the colon or rectum), to help researchers understand what drives this cancer at a molecular level and identify better treatment strategies. **You may be eligible if...** - You are an adult (18 or older) who is scheduled for or has already undergone surgery for colorectal cancer - You are willing to have your clinical and molecular information stored in a research database **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You are not willing to participate or allow your information to be included in the registry - You have not been diagnosed with colorectal cancer requiring surgery Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

This summary was AI-generated to explain the trial in plain language. It is not medical advice. Always discuss eligibility with your doctor before enrolling in a clinical trial.
