What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed This study
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tested whether an AI tool that highlights suspicious areas during colonoscopy helps doctors find more polyps. Over 400 adults aged 40-80 undergoing screening or diagnostic colonoscopy were randomly assigned to standard colonoscopy or AI-assisted colonoscopy. The main goal was to see if the AI improved the adenoma detection rate, a key measure of colonoscopy quality.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Computer-aided detection (CADe) system (DISCOVERY™)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could show that AI helps doctors find more polyps during colonoscopy, potentially reducing the risk of colorectal cancer.
What could go wrong
This is a completed study, but the AI tool may not work equally well for all doctors or patients, and it does not replace the need for skilled endoscopists.

This is an AI summary of the original study and may miss details. Read our disclaimer.

Study facts

What this study's own registry entry says, in plain language.

Phase

Not a phased trial

Phase numbers describe drug development. The registry uses this when they do not apply, as it does for trials of devices, procedures or behaviour changes, and for observational studies.

Participants

Lead sponsor

Other sponsor

The registry's catch-all category, for sponsors it does not file as a company, a government agency, or a research network.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Ages

40 to 80 years
