COLORECTAL POLYP

This study is testing whether a special milk called UNICLA-A2 can reduce inflammation and improve gut health in people at high risk for colorectal cancer who have already had polyps removed. The milk comes from cows with a specific protein type and is enriched with omega-3 and se…

This study is testing a robotic device that doctors use through the anus to remove benign growths (polyps, adenomas) from the rectum and sigmoid colon. The goal is to see if the device can remove the entire growth in one piece safely, without causing bleeding or a hole in the bow…

This study tests whether a 6-month diet change can reduce inflammation and improve metabolism in obese adults who have had colon polyps. Participants and their household partners will follow a special eating plan. The goal is to see if diet can lower the risk of developing colore…

This study compares two methods for finding precancerous colon polyps during colonoscopy. Both methods use water instead of air to inflate the colon and an AI system to spot polyps. One group also uses a special light filter called linked-color imaging. The goal is to see if the …

This study tests whether adding a hot tool to the standard cold removal of large colon polyps lowers the chance of polyps growing back. About 194 adults with flat or slightly raised polyps at least 20 mm wide will be randomly assigned to one of two procedures. Participants will h…

This study is testing a new blood test called DENEB that looks for tiny molecules (microRNAs) to find colorectal cancer and precancerous polyps early. Researchers will collect blood samples from 2,000 people who are also getting a colonoscopy. The goal is to see if the blood test…

This study compares two ways to monitor older adults (ages 65-82) who have had colon polyps in the past: an annual stool test (FIT) or a colonoscopy every few years. About 9,000 participants will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods and followed for up to 11 years to se…

This study tests a new microwave-based device, called MiWEndo, that is used during a standard colonoscopy to help doctors find polyps in the colon. About 50 people who already have a polyp in their rectum will take part. The goal is to see if the device is safe and can find more …

This study looks at whether using lower pressure gas during laparoscopic large bowel surgery can protect the gut and help patients recover faster. About 125 adults having certain types of colon surgery will be randomly assigned to different pressure levels. The goal is to see if …

This study tests whether a technique called cold snare polypectomy can safely remove 10-20 mm colon polyps without using heat. About 120 adults will have their polyps removed this way during a colonoscopy. The goal is to see if it works well and causes fewer complications than tr…

This study looks at the genes in colon polyps from people with MASH (a type of fatty liver disease) compared to those without fatty liver. Researchers want to find specific gene patterns that might signal higher risk. About 100 adults already scheduled for polyp removal will dona…

This study is testing a new device that uses small electric pulses to destroy colon polyps during a colonoscopy. Researchers want to see if it is safe and effective for removing polyps. Thirty adults with at least one polyp larger than 5mm in the lower colon will be enrolled. The…

This study looks at how adding beans to the diet affects bowel and metabolic health in 25 overweight adults aged 30-80 who are scheduled for a colonoscopy. Participants will drink a bean smoothie for two weeks, and researchers will measure changes in gut bacteria, blood markers, …

This study tests whether a short video training can improve doctors' ability to detect cancer recurrence at colonoscopy scars. 141 endoscopists of all experience levels will view 15 images before and after a learning tool, answering questions about scar recognition and recurrence…
