NCT ID NCT07708415

First seen Jul 16, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at 3,000 people who had surgery for colorectal cancer to see how often polyps come back in the colon afterward. Researchers will check if the type and stage of the original cancer are linked to polyp recurrence. The goal is to improve follow-up care by identifying who needs closer monitoring.
