Can a simple questionnaire keep patients on track after cancer surgery?
NCT ID NCT06092281
First seen Aug 17, 2026 · Last updated Aug 18, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether having patients complete a questionnaire about follow-up care, plus receiving feedback, can improve their adherence to scheduled endoscopic surveillance after endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for early gastrointestinal growths. The study will enroll 500 adults who have had ESD and will compare those who receive the questionnaire and feedback with those who do not. The goal is to see if this educational approach increases the number of patients who attend their follow-up endoscopies on time, which could help catch any recurrence early.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Questionnaire and feedback on compliance-related education
- What this could lead to
- If effective, this simple, low-cost approach could help more patients attend crucial follow-up endoscopies, potentially reducing recurrence and improving outcomes after ESD.
- What could go wrong
- The trial is early and focuses on a behavioral intervention, so its impact may be limited or not generalizable. Compliance depends on many factors beyond education, and the study's success is not guaranteed.
