Polyp of large intestine

This study tests a vaccine that helps the body's immune system recognize and attack advanced colon polyps, which can turn into cancer. About 110 people who have had these polyps removed will receive either the vaccine or a placebo. The goal is to see if the vaccine boosts immune …

Researchers compare two ways to remove large, non-cancerous growths from the colon. One method, endoscopic mucosal resection, removes the growth in pieces. The other, endoscopic submucosal dissection, removes it in one piece but takes longer and carries more risk. The trial tests…

This trial asks whether a newer, simpler technique called cold snare polypectomy (CSP) causes less damage to blood vessels under colon polyps than the traditional hot snare method. It involves adults with non-cancerous colon polyps sized 10-19 mm. The study compares the presence …

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 compares two methods for removing certain types of colon polyps (10-19mm adenomas or serrated lesions 10mm or larger) during a colonoscopy: cold snare piecemeal resection (CSPR) and cold snare endoscopic mucosal resection (Cold EMR). About 570 adults will take part to …

This study tests whether an artificial intelligence (AI) system can accurately identify the type of colon polyps during a colonoscopy, compared to standard visual inspection by the doctor. Over 1,700 adults having a colonoscopy will be randomly assigned to either AI-assisted or s…

This study tests a computer program that analyzes colonoscopy images to help doctors decide if a growth (polyp) is an adenoma (pre-cancerous) or not. The software gives a probability score for each lesion. The trial involves 1,178 adults and compares the software's results to lab…

This study tests a special probe that checks blood flow in ulcers left after colon polyp removal. The goal is to see if using this probe to guide treatment can prevent delayed bleeding, especially in patients taking blood thinners or with large polyps. About 180 high-risk adults …

This study tests a new device that takes detailed images of the lower gut during a standard colonoscopy. About 250 adults aged 45 to 75 will have the probe used during their procedure. The goal is to see if the device works well for real-time imaging.

This study looks at whether a 6-month or 12-month follow-up colonoscopy is better for people who had a large colon polyp (20-50 mm) removed that was not cancerous. About 546 adults will be assigned to one of the two follow-up schedules. The goal is to see which timing finds any r…

This study looks at whether telling people over 45 their genetic risk for colorectal cancer helps them decide to get their first colonoscopy. Researchers will track how many people schedule a colonoscopy after learning their risk, and compare findings like polyps between risk gro…

This study tests whether a two-week plant-based Mediterranean diet can change gut bacteria and reduce inflammation in people who have had colon polyps removed. Thirty participants will eat high-fiber meals delivered to their homes, and researchers will track changes in blood and …

This study looks at whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can accurately identify patients who still have cancer after local removal of early-stage colorectal cancer. Currently, many patients undergo additional surgery even though about 85% are already cured by the initial …

This study aimed to see if two advanced imaging modes, TXI and RDI, built into standard colonoscopy equipment, could make removing large colon polyps faster and safer. The trial was planned for adults with polyps 20 mm or larger, but it was withdrawn before any participants were …
