TAS-102 With or Without Celecoxib in ctDNA-defined Minimal Residual Disease in Colorectal Cancer After Completion of Adjuvant Chemotherapy
Sponsor
M.D. Anderson Cancer Center
Enrollment
25 participants
Start Date
Jun 6, 2022
Study Type
INTERVENTIONAL
Conditions
Summary
To measure the level of circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) in the blood of colorectal cancer patients after 6 months of receiving TAS-102 therapy. ctDNA is genetic material from tumor cells that can be found and measured in the blood.
Eligibility
Min Age: 18 Years
Plain Language Summary
Simplified for easier understanding
This study is testing whether adding celecoxib (an anti-inflammatory drug) to TAS-102 (an oral chemotherapy) can clear residual cancer signals — detected by a blood test called ctDNA — in colorectal cancer patients who finished their standard chemotherapy but still show signs of microscopic remaining disease.
**You may be eligible if...**
- You have been diagnosed with colorectal cancer (stage II, III, or IV)
- You had successful surgery to remove all visible cancer (R0 resection)
- You completed at least 3 months of oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy
- A blood test (ctDNA assay) shows minimal residual disease
- No cancer is visible on imaging
**You may NOT be eligible if...**
- You have visible cancer on imaging
- You have not completed your planned curative-intent treatment
- You have health conditions that prevent the use of TAS-102 or celecoxib
