About this study

Official title: Endoscopic Size Assessment of Advanced Adenomatous Polyps; Inter Observer Variations

The investigators are retrospectively comparing detection rates of adenomatous polyps, advanced adenomas, and size assessment of the polyps among Rush University Medical Center endoscopists. The investigators plan to review whether the size assessment of adenomatous polyps affected the surveillance protocols and if the location of polyps detected affected the detection rates.

Read the detailed description

The study plans to compare detection rates of adenomatous as well as the sessile serrated polyps, advanced adenomas and size assessment of the polyps among the endoscopists at the study site. In addition, the study team aims to evaluate rates of advanced neoplasia on surveillance colonoscopy based on certain features on initial colonoscopy and patient characteristics, including specific high-risk histologic features and concurrent medication usage such as aspirin. In addition, patients with at least one adenoma on surveillance colonoscopy will be identified and regarded as cases. Cases will be compared against normal surveillance colonoscopy. The Controls will be selected on a 1:1 ratio. Aspirin use will be compared between groups.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adenomatous Polyp Detection Rate

    Assessing for advanced adenomas (including location).

    Measured: one year

  2. Endoscopic Size Assessment Versus Pathological Size Assessment

    Size of polyps at time of endoscopic procedure will be compared to the size of the same polyp by pathological assessment.

    Measured: one year

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Retroflexion as an indication of adenoma detection rate in colorectal cancer screening

    Retroflexion is a common but not mandatory practice in colonoscopy which as not been systematically studied in terms of polyp detection. Charts will be reviewed to determine whether retroflexion was performed.

    Measured: one year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adenoma Detection Rate Improvement in Screening Colonoscopy, run by Rush University Medical Center at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 2 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 22 Jan 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

Adenomatous Polyp Detection Rate (time frame: one year). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 NCT02193646, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 22 Jan 2025.
