Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre·interventional·Posted Jan 10, 2023·Updated Feb 23, 2026

In Brief

A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating QBECO and Placebo for Colorectal Cancer and Liver Metastases. Active but no longer recruiting, targeting 115 participants across 4 sites.

Detailed Summary

The goal of this type of clinical trial is t to answer the following question: Can the chance of colorectal cancer progressing be lowered by taking a medication, QBECO, before and after surgery? The goal of this study is to find out if this approach is better or worse than the standard of care for your type of cancer. The standard of care is defined as care most people get for metastatic colorectal cancer. There is currently no standard of care drug being given before or after surgery to prevent further spread of your cancer. Participants will be asked to self-inject the study medication before surgery for minimum of 11 days and after surgery for minimum of 41 days.
