Can a single tool outperform the standard for colon polyp removal?
NCT ID NCT07754955
First seen Aug 10, 2026 · Last updated Aug 11, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a new device called the Speedboat can remove large, flat colon polyps as well as or better than the standard needle knife. The Speedboat combines injection, cutting, and bleeding control in one tool, while the needle knife requires separate instruments. About 80 adults with polyps larger than 20 mm will be randomly assigned to one of the two methods. The study compares how fast the polyp is removed, how often it is removed in one piece with clear margins, and the safety of each approach.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Speedboat device (a combined injection, cutting, and coagulation tool) compared with a standard needle knife for endoscopic submucosal dissection.
- What this could lead to
- If the Speedboat device proves faster and safer, it could become a preferred tool for removing large colon polyps, reducing procedure time and complications.
- What could go wrong
- This is a relatively small, early-stage study. The device may not outperform the standard needle knife, and there are inherent risks like bleeding or perforation during the procedure.
