This study tests a new device that flattens colon polyps before they are examined under a microscope. The goal is to help doctors better identify sessile serrated lesions, a type of polyp that can lead to colorectal cancer. About 1,156 adults having polyps removed during a colono…

This study will test artificial intelligence algorithms that analyze video from routine endoscopies of the head and neck. The AI will try to detect, classify (benign vs. malignant), and outline lesions, comparing its performance to doctors and lab results. About 283 adults with s…

This study will check how well a non-invasive stool test (quantitative fecal immunochemical test, or qFIT) can detect colorectal cancer and precancerous lesions like adenomas and serrated polyps. Researchers will compare the test results with colonoscopy findings in 150 adults ag…

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) system can help doctors spot more precancerous polyps and colorectal cancers during colonoscopy compared to standard procedures. Over 3,300 adults scheduled for screening or surveillance will be randomly assigned to AI-assi…

This study looks at whether people who have had large colon polyps removed can safely wait longer for their next colonoscopy. About 760 adults will be split into two groups: one getting the standard schedule (colonoscopy at 6, 18, and 48 months) and another getting a relaxed sche…

This study tests whether spraying a protective medication (sucralfate) on the wound after removing colon polyps can prevent delayed bleeding better than the standard method of placing clips. The trial will include 160 patients who take blood thinners and have large polyps. Partic…

This study looks at whether a gel called Hyalosem can prevent scar tissue from forming inside the uterus after surgery. Researchers will review the medical records of 80 women who had uterine surgery and then received the gel. The goal is to see if the gel reduces adhesions and i…

This study tests whether letting patients give themselves sedation medication (propofol) by pressing a button during a colonoscopy leads to higher satisfaction than standard sedation given by a doctor. About 40 adults scheduled for colonoscopy will be randomly assigned to either …

This study compares two types of virtual reality (VR) during common ear, nose, and throat (ENT) procedures. One group will watch calming scenery, while the other plays an interactive puzzle game. Researchers want to see which better reduces pain and anxiety. The study will includ…

This study tests a new gel called SUBMO® to see if it works as well as the standard saltwater solution for lifting and removing large colon polyps (over 10 mm) during a colonoscopy. About 300 adults will take part. The goal is to make the removal process smoother and safer.

This study tests whether a special imaging mode called RDI helps doctors remove early-stage cancers from the stomach, esophagus, or colon more quickly and safely than standard white-light endoscopy. About 158 adults with early cancers or precancerous lesions will be randomly assi…

This early study tests a new device that supports the colon wall during polyp removal. It involves 4 people who have a positive stool test and a polyp on the left side of the colon. The main goal is to see if the device can be placed successfully in one try.

This study tests whether a non-invasive nerve stimulation device can improve the quality of bowel cleansing before a colonoscopy. About 270 adults scheduled for colonoscopy will receive either the real stimulation or a sham treatment. The goal is to see if this approach leads to …

This study tests whether adding magnesium sulfate or lidocaine to a standard sedative (dexmedetomidine) better prevents coughing after functional endoscopic sinus surgery. Coughing after this surgery can cause bleeding and slow recovery. About 102 adults will be randomly assigned…

This study looks at people who have had certain types of colon polyps (serrated lesions) removed. It aims to find out why some of them later develop new advanced growths in the colon. By tracking 750 adults over time, researchers hope to identify risk factors that could help doct…

This study looks at how often polyps in the stomach or colon grow back after being removed during a scope procedure. Researchers will follow about 2,000 adults for up to three years to track recurrence and identify risk factors like polyp size, lifestyle, and health history. The …

This study tests a new short camera called a rectoscope to check the lower bowel after rectal tumour removal. The goal is to see if it can be used in the clinic with a simple enema instead of strong bowel prep, making follow-up checks faster and reducing waiting lists. Thirty pat…

This study looks at whether a special decision aid helps patients with a cancerous colon polyp choose between more surgery or careful monitoring. About 110 adults in Denmark will use the aid during their doctor visit. The goal is to see if it changes treatment choices and improve…

This study looks at chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps, a condition causing long-term nasal congestion and breathing problems. Researchers will measure inflammation markers and examine nasal tissue from 10 adults using a steroid spray (budesonide). The goal is to better understa…

This study looks at whether measuring the thickness (viscosity) of nasal mucus can help doctors better understand the type of inflammation in people with chronic sinusitis and nasal polyps. Researchers will compare mucus from 60 patients having sinus surgery—some with polyps and …
