About this study

Official title: Impact of Proximal Colon Retroflexion in Colorectal Cancer Screening Programme: Randomized Trial

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the most common tumor and the second leading cause of death in the Western world. The decrease in incidence and mortality by CRC in the population undergoing screening has been observed. Colonoscopy is the recommended method for detecting tumors in early stages, as well as identifying and resecting adenomatous polyps, which are the precursor lesions of most CRCs. Colonoscopy should be of high quality to decrease incidence and mortality by CRC and avoid interval cancer. The literature shows that colonoscopy does not prevent right colon lesions in the same way as the left colon lesions, with most of the interval cancers located in the right colon. Studies published so far show an increase in the adenomas detection rate (ADT) in the right colon in the second visualization of this segment and an increase between 2 and 10% if this second examination is performed with the proximal retroflexion maneuver.Retroflexion is a safe maneuver in expert endoscopists. The aim of our study is to evaluate the ADT in the right colon by means of a second visualization by performing proximal retroflexion or second frontal visualization at random in the CCR screening population.

What participants receive

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

  • Proximal retroflexionProcedure or surgery

    The investigator explore twice right colon, first front view and second forward viewing or proximal retroflexion depends on randomization

  • Frontal viewProcedure or surgery

    The investigator explore twice right colon with frontal viewing

What is being measured

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

  1. Proximal retroflexion improve adenoma detection rate in colorectal cancer screening

    Determine whether to perform retroflexion proximal improves adenoma detection rate in the right colon versus forward vision in population screening colorectal cancer with medium risk with immune blood test positive stool

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Second look for right colon improve adenoma detection rate

    Determine if a second look: retroflexion proximal or forward view improve adenoma detection rate

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  2. Rate of retroflexion related adverse events

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  3. Rate of retroflexion proximal adverse events with a pediatric colonoscopy

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

  4. Pre-procedure factors

    To analyze pre-procedure factors that may influence the prevalence of precursor lesions in the colon: age, sex, race, alcohol, smoking habit and the value of SOH, in which more detailed explorations should be performed using proximal retroflexion

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Proximal retroflexion and Frontal view in people with Colorectal Neoplasms and Adenoma Detection Rate, run by Hospital del Rio Hortega at 1 site in Spain.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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 19 Feb 2020. 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 Spain. 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?

Proximal retroflexion improve adenoma detection rate in colorectal cancer screening (time frame: through study completion, an average of 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 19 Feb 2020.
