NCT ID NCT05704010

First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 6 times

Summary

This study looks at how well a tiny camera you swallow (videocapsule endoscopy) can find early signs of small bowel cancer in people with Lynch syndrome. About 100 adults with Lynch syndrome will swallow the camera pill as part of their regular care. Researchers will track how many develop small bowel cancer or pre-cancerous growths each year to see if this screening method is effective.
