Trial summary

Early detecting and removing of colorectal advanced adenomas can reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer. Because of the less bleeding of advanced adenomas, sensitivities of the common used quantitative fecal immunochemical tests (qFITs) are unsatisfying. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Ultra-sensitivity Quantitative Fecal Immunochemical Test Improve Diagnostic Accuracy in Detecting Colorectal Advanced Adenoma and Colorectal Cancer: a Multicenter, Prospective Study

Early detecting and removing of colorectal advanced adenomas can reduce the incidence of colorectal cancer. Because of the less bleeding of advanced adenomas, sensitivities of the common used quantitative fecal immunochemical tests (qFITs) are unsatisfying. Ultra-sensitivity qFIT(us-qFIT) can determine extremely low fecal hemoglobin concentration compared with the common used qFIT. This study will prove the diagnostic accuracy of us-qFIT in detecting colorectal advanced adenomas.

Read the detailed description

Early detection of CRC in a curable stage can reduce mortality but not morbidity. The majority of colorectal cancer is thought to arise from precancerous lesions through the adenoma-carcinoma pathway. Detecting and removing of colorectal advanced adenomas can reduce incidence of colorectal cancer. Although colonoscopy is currently considered the most effective method for detecting advanced adenomas, individuals may be reluctant to undergo colonoscopy due to the uncomfortable feeling and the relatively high cost. Conversely, stool tests are relatively cheap and more readily accepted. Fecal immunochemical test (FIT) is economic and easy to use in colorectal cancer screening. However, the common used qFIT is insufficiently sensitive to the minor hemorrhage of advanced adenomas, and the sensitivity is about only 27% to 47%. To improve the detection rate of colorectal advanced adenoma, Ultra-sensitivity quantitative fecal immunochemical test (us-qFIT) improves technology and can detect fecal hemoglobin in extremely low concentration quantificationally. The investigators design this research to prove the diagnostic accuracy of us-qFIT in detecting colorectal advanced adenoma.

What is being measured

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

  1. The accuracy of us-qFIT to diagnose colorectal advanced adenoma.

    The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. The accuracy of us-qFIT to diagnose colorectal cancer.

    The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.

    Measured: 24 months

  2. The accuracy of us-qFIT to diagnose high-risk adenoma.

    The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value.

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Develop a predictive model of advanced colorectal neoplasms which includes the value of us-qFIT.

    Develop a predictive model of CRC or advanced colorectal neoplasm which includes qFIT, age ,sex, CRC family history, diet and so on.

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Neoplasm, run by Shandong University at 6 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 16 Sep 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 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 Ruchen Zhou, MD (15949702165, sdlwzrc@126.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The accuracy of us-qFIT to diagnose colorectal advanced adenoma. (time frame: 24 months). 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 16 Sep 2021.
