NCT ID NCT04780256
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks back at medical records of 2000 adults who had endoscopic removal of cancerous or precancerous growths in the esophagus, stomach, duodenum, colon, or rectum. The goal is to compare different removal methods to see which works best and has the fewest complications. No new treatments are given; the study simply analyzes past procedures to improve future care.
