About this study

Official title: Linked Color Imaging vs White-light Colonoscopy in the Characterization of Small and Diminutive Colon Polyps

Colorectal cancer is a maior cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.Colonoscopy and removal of all adenomas is the most efficient method to prevent colorectal cancer.The most colorectal polyps detected are small(<10mm) and diminutive(≦5mm) during colonoscopy.At that size,the are overwhelmingly hyperplastic or adenomatous,and rarely harbour high-grade dysplasia,cancer or sessile serrated adenoma/polyp.Traditional white-light endoscopy cannot reliably distinguish between small adenomatous and hyperplastic polyps,thus,real-time recognition of the polyp histology during colonoscopy has the potential to minimize both the costs and complications associated with endoscopic biopsy and polpectomy.Linked color imaging(LCI),a new system for endoscopy modality,creates clear and bright endoscopic images by using short-wavelength narrow-band laser light combined with white laser light on the basis of magnifying blue laser imaging(BLI) technology. it is easier to recognize a slight difference in color of the mucosa. This is a study to investigate the impact of Linked color imaging endoscopes on the in vivo histology prediction of colonic polyps.

Read the detailed description

This is a prospective study comparing the accuracy of linked color imaging(LCI) and standard white light colonoscopes in the diagnosis of small and diminutive colorectal polyps.

Being tested

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Small Colon Polyps and Linked Color Imagimg, run by Affiliated Hospital to Academy of Military Medical Sciences at 2 sites in China.

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 6 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Nov 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in China. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Pei Deng, Ph.M (01066947473 ext. +86, dengpei1983@21cn.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

the accuracy of predicted in vivo polyp histology (time frame: 5 months). 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 NCT03351257, which also lists 3 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 Nov 2017.
