Laser Measurement for Polyps

Indianapolis, Indiana
Recent updates of the guidelines on polyp surveillance of the American Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE) and European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) increasingly focus on size of polyps as an important indicator of malignant transformation to colorectal cancer (CRC). However, the interobserver variability in polyp size assessment between optical diagnosis of endoscopists and pathologists is considerable. This may lead to incorrect surveillance intervals in patients at risk for developing colorectal cancer, which may increase the risk of post-colonoscopy CRC (PCCRC). This study aims to assess the precision of a new laser-based measurement system (AccuMeasure, VTM Technologies Ltd.) for polyps during colonoscopy.

The goal of this study is to improve use of colorectal cancer screening among screening eligible African Americans who are served by Federally Qualified Health Centers in Michigan. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To what extent to individual prefer and select to complete screening with colonoscopy versus stool-based (FIT Kit or sDNA) options? * Can full completion of (i.e. follow-through with) screening with a selected modality be enhanced by delivery of a culturally targeted intervention? Participants will learn about colonoscopy, FIT Kit and sDNA as recommended and widely used screening options. Participants will select a modality to complete their own screening with. Participants will then be randomized to one of three arms (usual care, standard intervention, culturally targeted intervention). Researchers will compare the extent to which intervention arms enhance completion rates across each of the three screening modalities.

Based on prior studies, trainee and practicing gastroenterologists miss pre-cancerous polyps (adenomas and serrated polyps) during colonoscopy. The use of computer-aided detection (CADe) systems, a form of artificial intelligence (AI) has been shown to help identify colorectal lesions for practicing gastroenterologists. However, less is known how AI impacts polyp detection for trainees. The investigators are conducting a tandem colonoscopy study wherein a portion of the colon is examined first by the trainee and then the attending physician. For each procedure, randomization will occur which will determine whether or not the trainee will utilize AI for their examination of the colon. At the end of the study, the investigators will determine whether AI helps trainees miss fewer polyps during colonoscopy. The investigators will also conduct interviews with trainees to understand how AI impacts colonoscopy training.

Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) involving the colon is a known risk for colon cancer. There are two standards-of-care colonoscopy techniques used for screening all patients who suffer from IBD for more than eight years. One method is to obtain random biopsies throughout the colon and the other is by using dye spraying chromo-colonoscopy. This trial aims to study the difference between the two colonoscopy techniques during the era of high definition camera in detecting neoplastic lesions during screening patients with long-standing IBD.

The investigators will expand an existing, patient-centered, health literacy strategy to promote longer-term adherence to colorectal cancer (CRC) screening in resource-limited, rural health clinics via colonoscopy or annual fecal immunochemical test (FIT). In the proposed 2-arm study, both PRIME-CRC and enhanced usual care (control) will incorporate health literacy evidence-based practices for delivering CRC patient information and counseling to aid patient decision making for selecting FIT or colonoscopy, including simplified test instructions. In addition, the PRIME-CRC arm will use a "stepped care" approach for reminding patients on proper CRC screening preparation for scheduled colonoscopy or completion of annual FIT. Patients in the PRIME-CRC arm will receive frequent follow-up contact from their health care provider via audio-recorded, automated call or SMS text, based on patient preference.

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if drug Linaclotide can be used as a single agent regimen to adequately prepare bowel for colonoscopy. The main question it aims to answer is: Does drug Linaclotide with Gatorade provide adequate bowel preparation for colonoscopy instead of the standard 4 Liters of Polyethylene glycol (PEG)? Participants will: Take one 290mg dose of Linaclotide 36 hours before the procedure and One 290mg dose of Linaclotide 8 hours before the procedure + 2 Liters of Gatorade and a clear liquid diet 24 hours before the procedure. As per standard of care, all patients will be made Nil Per Oral (NPO) starting midnight before the procedure. The colonoscopy report will then be reviewed for Boston Bowel Preparation Score (BBPS) as a marker of bowel preparation quality, insertion time as a marker of procedure difficulty as well as noted pathology and any complications or physician noted comments.

Patients on dual antiplatelet therapy )aspirin plus a P2Y12 inhibitor \[clopidogrel, prasugrel, or ticagrelor\]) undergoing screening or surveilance colonoscopy are at increased risk for bleeding from the procedure. Patients are ussually asked to stop the P2Y12 inhibitor for the procedure. Currently, recommendation is that patients only on a P2Y12 inhibitor be changes to aspirin for the procedure. This pilot study will evaluate if there is a large difference in bleeding between patients only taking aspirin compared with patients only taking a P2Y12 inhibitor. Patinets who participate will randomly be randomly asked to stop either aspirin or the P2Y12 inhibitor 1 week before the procedure. Periprocedural bleeding and bleeding after the procedure for iup to 30 days.

This study aims to investigate the impact of various healthy diets, specifically a modified plant-based Mediterranean diet, on the gut microbiome and overall well-being post-colonoscopy. The investigators hypothesize that certain diets can positively influence gut bacteria, reducing inflammation and enhancing metabolic signals. To explore this, they will utilize metagenomic testing on stool samples to analyze the DNA of gut microorganisms. Additionally, they will conduct immune profiling on serum samples and perform metabolomic analysis to comprehensively evaluate the diet-induced changes in immune response and metabolic pathways. This multi-faceted approach will help them understand how dietary changes affect the composition and function of the gut microbiome, immune function, and overall metabolism.

Nitrous oxide (commonly known as 'laughing gas') is often used during dental and other outpatient procedures, because it is easy to administer, is short-acting and rapidly clears from the body following the procedure. The investigators hypothesize that use of Nitrous oxide during GI endoscopy may enhance patient comfort during the procedure and speed-up post-procedure recovery, while minimizing the fatigue and mental fogginess some patients report the day after receiving standard sedative and narcotic drugs used routinely for the procedure. The investigators are interested in determining if adding Nitrous Oxide to commonly used sedation drugs will decrease fatigue, mental fogginess, and nausea/vomiting, as well as determine when the patient felt fully recovered from the effects of all sedatives given for the procedure.

Despite the widespread use of colonoscopy, the ongoing challenge of potentially missing polyps remains. Previous studies have independently shown that both Endocuff, a colonoscope attachment device for polyp detection, and Computer-Aided Detection (CADe) systems have individually demonstrated enhanced lesion detection and safety. This study seeks to evaluate the efficacy of combining the Endocuff CADe versus using CADe alone in colonoscopy procedures for colorectal cancer screening and surveillance. This research project aims to ascertain whether the synergistic application of these technologies yields superior outcomes.

This trial will compare HPV testing to the routine colposcopy in the follow-up of women treated for cervical high grade lesions. Women will be assigned randomly (by chance) after treatment of cervical pre-cancer to be either (1) followed-up by colposcopy, or (2) undergo HPV testing. Women found to have disease by either strategy will be offered re-treatment. For the next 2 years participants will undergo yearly, in depth, evaluation to assess the cervix for precancer. We will then be able to compare which of the 2 follow-up strategies worked best.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much do Colonoscopy clinical trials pay?

Each trial will compensate patients a different amount, but $50-100 for each visit is a fairly common range for Phase 2–4 trials (Phase 1 trials often pay substantially more). Further, most trials will cover the costs of a travel to-and-from the clinic.

How do Colonoscopy clinical trials work?

After a researcher reviews your profile, they may choose to invite you in to a screening appointment, where they'll determine if you meet 100% of the eligibility requirements. If you do, you'll be sorted into one of the treatment groups, and receive your study drug. For some trials, there is a chance you'll receive a placebo. Across Colonoscopy trials 30% of clinical trials have a placebo. Typically, you'll be required to check-in with the clinic every month or so. The average trial length for Colonoscopy is 12 months.

How do I participate in a study as a "healthy volunteer"?

Not all studies recruit healthy volunteers: usually, Phase 1 studies do. Participating as a healthy volunteer means you will go to a research facility several times over a few days or weeks to receive a dose of either the test treatment or a "placebo," which is a harmless substance that helps researchers compare results. You will have routine tests during these visits, and you'll be compensated for your time and travel, with the number of appointments and details varying by study.

What does the "phase" of a clinical trial mean?

The phase of a trial reveals what stage the drug is in to get approval for a specific condition. Phase 1 trials are the trials to collect safety data in humans. Phase 2 trials are those where the drug has some data showing safety in humans, but where further human data is needed on drug effectiveness. Phase 3 trials are in the final step before approval. The drug already has data showing both safety and effectiveness. As a general rule, Phase 3 trials are more promising than Phase 2, and Phase 2 trials are more promising than phase 1.

Do I need to be insured to participate in a Colonoscopy medical study?

Clinical trials are almost always free to participants, and so do not require insurance. The only exception here are trials focused on cancer, because only a small part of the typical treatment plan is actually experimental. For these cancer trials, participants typically need insurance to cover all the non-experimental components.

What are the newest Colonoscopy clinical trials?

Most recently, we added Magnetic Flexible Endoscope for Inflammatory Bowel Disease, Linaclotide for Colonoscopy Preparation and Social Needs Support for Cervical Cancer Screening Follow-Up to the Power online platform.
