Summary
This study looked at the gut bacteria of nearly 1,800 people who had colon polyps or colorectal cancer. The goal was to find bacterial patterns that could predict who is at high risk for cancer returning. Researchers hope this will lead to a simple stool test to catch colorectal cancer early, without needing a colonoscopy.
