About this study

Official title: Prospective Randomized Controlled Trial of Cap-Assisted ChromoEndoscopy(CapACE) Versus Conventional Colonoscopy(CC) for the Detection of Colorectal Neoplasia

The investigators plan to conduct a multi-center, randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of cap-assisted chromoendoscopy as a screening test for detection of colorectal polyp. This study will be performed using web-based research network, e-VELOS in Korea.

Read the detailed description

Various endoscopic tools have been tried to reduce polyp missing rate which has been reported to be 20-25%. Transparent cap-assisted colonoscopy has been suggested to improve visualization of the lesion that are difficult to access, such as tangentially located lesions and those located within a limited luminal space. Chromoendoscopy with indigocarmine spraying was reported to increases the detection rates of polyp, especially in right colon and rectum. However, there also have been mixed results regarding polyp detection rates of the endoscopic methods. Moreover, there is no data regarding the impact of the screening tools on longterm recurrence rate of colorectal polyp. Therefore, in this study, we intend to perform a multi-center, randomized controlled trial to investigate the efficacy of cap-assisted chromoendoscopy as a screening test for detection of colorectal polyps. This study will be performed using web-based research network, e-VELOS in Korea.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • cap-assisted chromoendoscopyDevice

    A cap (irrigation cap) is a simple plastic device that can be attached to the tip of a colonoscope before performing the colonoscopy. For chromoendoscopy, 0.09% indigocarmine was administered via irrigation cap .

Study groups in NCT01112280
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
cap-assisted chromoendoscopyExperimentalTo the tip of the colonoscope, transparent cap is fitted and applied. In addition, panchromoendoscopy using indigocarmine solution is preformed in this group.
Receives: Device: cap-assisted chromoendoscopy
Standard colonoscopyNo interventionNeither transparent cap nor chromoendoscopy is applied in this group and standard colonoscopy is performed.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Adenoma detection rate

    The proportion of subjects with at least one adenoma

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

Secondary outcomes (6)
  1. Proximal adenoma detection rate

    Proportion of subjects with at least one proximal colon adenoma

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

  2. Proximal serrated polyp detection rate

    Proportion of subjects with at least one proximal serrated polyp/adenoma

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

  3. Advanced adenoma detection rate

    Proportion of subjects with at least one advanced adenoma

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

  4. Serrated adenoma detection rate

    Proportion of subjects with at least one serrated adenoma

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

  5. Cancer detection rate

    Proportion of subjects with at least one cancer

    Measured: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.

  6. Surveillance

    Surveillance interval recommendations for both groups were classified based on adenoma detection

    Measured: 7 - 14 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing cap-assisted chromoendoscopy in people with Colorectal Neoplasm, run by Korean Association for the Study of Intestinal Diseases at 14 sites in South Korea.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 10 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in South Korea. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Adenoma detection rate (time frame: 7 days is needed to confirm the pathologic examination.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01112280, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 13 Dec 2018.
