Study summary

This project is dedicated to identify the patients with possible higher risk of adenoma recurrence who should have follow-up colonoscopy in yearly interval. As a result, it can lead to optimizing the of follow-up colonoscopies intervals in real-world practice.

Read the detailed description

In this project, 200 individuals (aged 18 - 75 years) with removed colorectal polyps larger than 10 mm during colonoscopy performed based on all indication (including symptoms and screening procedures) will be included. All procedures will be done with high quality endoscopes (high definition, HD).

In all polyps, the advanced imaging techniques (such as chromoendoscopy and NBI) will be used to determine parts of the polyp suspicious from high-grade dysplasia or cancer. The therapeutic method will be decided by the size and macroscopic appearance of the polyp. In case of flat, sessile polyps and LST lesions (laterally spreading tumors) EMR or ESD will be performed. Pedunculated polyp will be removed by EPE. The goal is to achieve the en-bloc resection. Pathologists (with presence of the endoscopist) will do the first step of histopathology evaluation (cutting the polyp tissue). The aim is to perform the first cut in the most advanced part of the polyp and high density cutting in this area. Standard histopathology evaluation will proceed and will be followed by initial basic molecular testing.

Subsequently, all patients will be observed by colonoscopy in one-year intervals with focus on polyp recurrence. The group of high-risk patients will be selected with at least one of these criteria: 1/ high grade dysplasia adenoma at index colonoscopy; 2/ high score of polyp heterogenity at index colonoscopy; 3/ polyps recurrence at follow-up colonoscopy.

In a high-risk patients group the extensive somatic mutations profiling will be carried out according to multitarget sequencing by NGS technologies (next generation sequencing). Same testing will be done in randomly selected patients not included in the high-risk group, which will be used as a control group for statistical evaluation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Colorectal polyp larger than 10mm removed by colonoscopy therapeutic method (EPE, EMR, ESD)
  • Signed with the study and with colonoscopy

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  • FAP, HNPCC and other hereditary CRC syndromes probands

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(2)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Contraindication

A reason a treatment, test or procedure should not be given to a particular person, such as an allergy, another illness or a medicine they take.

Interventions

  • GeneticMulti-targeted next generation sequencing

    Study directed at finding molecular predictors of recurrent colorectal adenomas also taking into account the intrinsic level of heterogenity imprinted in the internal differences in molecular profiles

06

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Presence of genetic markers for local recurence after resection of colorectal neoplasia

    Measurement of gene mutations associated with local recurrence of advanced colorectal neoplasia after endoscopic resection.

    Time frame: 3 years

Secondary outcomes

  1. Risk of polyp recurrence

    Measurement of the number of local recurrences after resection of advanced colorectal neoplasia

    Time frame: 3 years

  2. Topographic heterogenity of polyps

    Measurement of topographical characteristics of colorectal neoplasia (such as demography, histology, tumour genetic heterogeneity and presence of frequently mutated genes) associated with local recurrence.

    Time frame: 3 years

Timeline

Tracking since Sep 25, 2026
ElapsedEstimatedEstimated, not yet reachedSimilar studies: half by the dot; the band is the middle halfHalf of similar studies reached it by the dot; the band is the middle half, from a quarter to three quarters

Started Apr 2017 (actual). Primary completion is estimated for Jan 2020, 33 months after the start.

Of 382 non-industry interventional studies with no phase under Colonic Neoplasms, half reached primary completion within 31 months of starting (the median), counting those still running; a quarter within 17 and three quarters within 55. This study's planned 33 months is close to that.

Counting every sponsor, half of 404 studies reached it within 30 months; a quarter within 16 and three quarters within 51.

How these figures are worked out, and which studies are left out of them.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Feb 15, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
