A Phase 2 interventional study of TATE and pembrolizumab and TAS-102 pill in Colorectal Cancer; Lung Cancer, sponsored by Teclison Ltd.. Recruiting at 3 sites in 2 countries. Open to participants aged 18 Years and older. Per ClinicalTrials.gov, last updated 2026-04-16.

Patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer or non-small cell lung cancer with liver metastasis treated with Trans-arterial Tirapazamine Embolization along with Pembrolizumab.
This study is an open-label study to treat patients with refractory metastatic colorectal cancer and non-small cell lung cancer with liver metastasis. Patients enrolled in the mCRC cohort will be randomized to receive study treatment Trans-arterial Tirapazamine Embolization (TATE)+Pembrolizumab or FDA-approved standard of care, such as TAS-102 or regorafenib, and their Overall Survival (OS) will be compared in the two cohorts as the primary endpoint. Patients enrolled in the NSCLC cohort will all receive study treatment TATE+Pembrolizaumb and Overall Response Rate (ORR) will be the primary endpoint.
6,541 studies on the registry are indexed under Colorectal Neoplasms; 1,667 are open to participants now.
This study's planned enrollment of 110 is above the median of 76 across 4,800 interventional studies indexed under Colorectal Neoplasms.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
Cancer that has spread from where it began to other parts of the body. “Metastatic” cancer is cancer that has spread this way.
PD-1, PD-L1 and CTLA-4 are proteins that act as brakes on the immune system. Checkpoint inhibitors, such as pembrolizumab or nivolumab, block them so the immune system can attack a cancer.
PD-L1 can also be measured in a tumour sample. Some scores count stained tumour cells only (TPS); others also count certain immune cells (CPS). The study names the score and the minimum it uses.
The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.
The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.
Cancer deposits in the brain from a cancer that started elsewhere in the body (CNS metastases include the spinal cord).
Studies differ: some leave out any brain metastases, some accept ones treated and stable for some weeks. Check what this study allows.

metastatic colorectal cancer progressed on at least two lines of chemotherapy
Drug: TATE and pembrolizumab · Drug: TAS-102 pill · Drug: Regorafenib Pill
Liver metastatic NSCLC progressed on immune checkpoint inhibitors and chemotherapy
Drug: TATE and pembrolizumab
All liver metastatic lesions will be treated with TATE for maximally debulking. Pembrolizumab IV infusion per standard schedule every 3 or 6 weeks until progression or maximally 2 years.
Also known as: TATE: Trans-arterial Tirapazamine Embolization;
The comparator of the mCRC arm is TAS-102 at 60 mg BID 5 days per week for 2 weeks then 2 weeks off.
Also known as: LONSURF
As an alternative to TAS-102 per treating physician's discretion. If selected, Regorafenib 160 mg oral daily for 3 weeks on and one week off, every 4 weeks per cycle. Do not take Regoarefnib if taking TAS-102.
Also known as: STIVARGA
This study also gives Pembrolizumab. No intervention listed here names it: that was found by reading the record.
