Trial summary

Linked color imaging (LCI),a new endoscopy modality, creates clear and bright images by using short wavelength narrow band laser light. LCI can make red area appear redder and white areas appear whiter. Thus, it may be possible to distinguish adenoma and non-adenoma polyps based on color evaluation of LCI images.

About this study

Official title: Computer-aided Classification of Colorectal Polyp by Using Linked Colour Imaging

Linked color imaging (LCI),a new endoscopy modality, creates clear and bright images by using short wavelength narrow band laser light. LCI can make red area appear redder and white areas appear whiter. Thus, it may be possible to distinguish adenoma and non-adenoma polyps based on color evaluation of LCI images. This study aimed to assess the correlation between histology results and LCI images. Moreover, the investigators conducted a pilot study to explore the clinical potential of LCI to distinguish adenoma and non-adenoma polyps and the accuracy of an automatic computer-aided diagnosis system using LCI imagine to predict histology polyps when compared to human experts physicians.

Read the detailed description

This study consists of a retrospective analysis and a pilot study. In the retrospective study, the investigators tried to find out an correlation between LCI images and histology results for polyp lesions. And a computer-aided analysis of the images was conducted to demonstrate the correlation objectively. Thereafter,a pilot study was performed to explore whether the previous correlation could be easily learned to distinguish adenoma and non-adenoma polyps by comparing the results of experts diagnosis of LCI image and non-experts. Also, in the pilot study, the investigators assessed the accuracy of an automate histology diagnosis method for polyp LCI images using the computer-aided system when compared to human experts physicians. Throughout the entire research, histology results are regarded as gold standard.

What participants receive

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

Study groups in NCT03359343
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
expertsIn this group, two experts distinguish a set of polyps on LCI images as adenoma or non-adenoma.
non-expertsIn this group, two non-experts distinguish the set of polyps(the same to experts group) on LCI images as adenoma or non-adenoma.
Computer-aided diagnosis systemIn this group, a newly developed computer-aided diagnosis system will be used to distinguish a set of polyps as adenoma or non-adenoma.

What is being measured

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

  1. LCI accuracy

    the accuracy between a novel developed computer-aided diagnosis system and human experts physicians o distinguish adenoma polyps and non-adenoma polyps based on LCI image.

    Measured: June 1, 2018

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. the short learning curve

    the accuracy between experts and non-experts to distinguish adenoma polyps and non-adenoma polyps based on LCI image was compared to explore whether LCI method is of an shorter learning curve.

    Measured: June 1, 2018

  2. the correlation

    the correlation between LCI image and histology results were retrospectively explored

    Measured: June 1, 2018

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 1 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 12 Jan 2018. 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 Min Min, M.D. (+86-010-66947473, minmin823@sina.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

LCI accuracy (time frame: June 1, 2018). 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 NCT03359343, 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 12 Jan 2018.
