About this trial
This clinical trial is looking at how well total ablative therapy works when added to the usual treatment for colorectal cancer that has spread to up to four places in the body. The usual treatment includes medications to help stop the cancer from growing. Total ablative therapy includes focused radiation or surgery to try to remove cancer from specific spots. The goal is to see if adding this therapy can help improve patient outcomes.
The trial's ID number is NCT05673148. This is a Phase 3 trial, meaning it is testing how well the treatment works and how safe it is. About 364 people are expected to join this study.
