Filter by:Colorectal cancer is the most frequent tumor in our environment if both sexes are considered together. Every year almost 800 cases are diagnosed in the districts of Tarragona. A little more than half of colorectal cancers are cured with surgery, with or without the addition of complementary treatments with chemotherapy and/or radiation therapy. Those who are not cured is because at the time of diagnosis the disease has already spread or they spread after having been treated surgically with curative intent. The purpose of the EarlyCRC project is to determine whether metabolites (substances of low molecular weight) can be found in the urine and stool of patients with colorectal cancer or polyps that can be easily and cheaply differentiated (urine or stool analysis) between the patients affected by colorectal cancer or polyps, from healthy individuals. For the identification of these possible metabolites, the urine analysis will be performed using the usual techniques in metabolomics, which studies the existing metabolites in biological processes.
The goal of this study is to learn about the epigenetic and genetic regulation (microRNA/mRNA) of colorectal polyps and their evolvement as polyps and to colorectal cancer. Furthermore, the study aims at investigating whether certain epigenetic features, linked to polyps and/or cancer are traceable in blood samples. The main questions the study aims to answer are: 1. Are there specific microRNA/mRNA that are expressed in different types of polyps and cancers and their respective stages? 2. Is microRNA/mRNA expression in polyps and cancer traceable in blood from the same patient? 3. Is the intestinal microbiata correlated with colorectal polyps and cancer and their microRNA/mRNA expression? Type of study: clinical trial Participant population Participants consist of patients undergoing a scheduled colonoscopy where a polyp or cancer is discovered. Healthy controls, with normal colonoscopy findings will be enrolled. Biopsies will be obtained from polyps/cancers and from normal surrounding intestinal mucosa. Biopsies will be obtained from defined intestinal locations from healthy controls. Blood samples will be collected from all participants. Researchers will compare microRNA/mRNA and microbiota in patients with polyps/cancers and their respective stages as well as healthy controls. Comparisons include biopsies and blood samples.
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation in reducing recurrence of colorectal adenomas after endoscopic resection. The main questions it aims to answer are: - the efficacy and safety of fecal microbiota transplantation in reducing the recurrence rate of colorectal adenomas after endoscopic resection. - changes in the intestinal and mucosal microbiota of patients before and after endoscopic treatment. - changes in the intestinal and mucosal microbiota of patients before and after fecal microbiota transplantation. Participants are required to complete one colonoscopy and infuse 150ml of fecal suspension into the terminal ileum under endoscopy, performing the first fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) on day 0. Subsequently, for 2 days continuously (day 1-2), the participants will undergo microbiota transplantation in the form of oral capsules, taking 40 FMT capsules within one day (20 capsules bid). Subsequently, participants will receive a maintenance treatment with oral FMT capsules (20 capsules bid) at 3, 6, and 9 months (approximately every 75 to 90 days). Participants will undergo their first follow-up colonoscopy between 6 to 12 months(the high-risk adenoma group will receive colonoscopy at 6 months, and the low-risk adenoma group will receive colonoscopy at 12 months).
Polyp size and count determines the follow-up intervals after colonoscopy. However, relying on the endoscopist's optical diagnosis for size estimation has shown considerable variability, leading to erroneous surveillance intervals and increased colorectal cancer risk. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of a new polyp size estimation software, called POSEIDON, which uses the tip of the auxiliary water-jet as reference and is implemented together with the EndoMind polyp detection system.
The study involves the planned use of a new microwave-based device during colonoscopy procedures in 50 patients to assess the performance and safety of its use for detection of colorectal polyps and lack of normal clinical practice modification. The device is a final design version, which has been previously tested in several preclinical studies (including phantom studies, an ex vivo study with human tissues, and an in vivo study with porcine model) and in a pilot study in humans (NCT05477836)
This study is to Evaluate the diagnostic sensitivity of the serum metabolite based PrecogColo Dx test for advanced colorectal neoplasia Screening, including advanced adenoma and colorectal cancer. There are two steps in this study. Firstly, the diagnostic model is established based on tumor-specific and gut-microbiome related serum metabolites. Secondly, the sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of the diagnostic model is evaluated in detecting advanced adenoma and colorectal cancer stages in an independent multi-centered cohort.
Nowadays, colonoscopy is considered the gold standard for the detection of lesions in the colorectal mucosa. However, around 25% of polyps may be missed during the conventional colonoscopy. Based on this, new technological tools aimed to improve the quality of the procedures, diminishing the technical and operator-related factors associated with the missed lesions. These tools use artificial intelligence (AI), a computer system able to perform human tasks after a previous training process from a large dataset. The DiscoveryTM AI-assisted polyp detector (Pentax Medical, Hoya Group, Tokyo, Japan) is a newly developed detection system based on AI. It was designed to alert and direct the attention to potential mucosal lesions. According to its remarkable features, it may increase the polyp and adenoma detection rates (PDR and ADR, respectively) and decrease the adenoma miss rate (AMR). Based on the above, the investigators aim to assess the real-world effectiveness of the DiscoveryTM AI-assisted polyp detector system in clinical practice and compare the results between expert (seniors) and non-expert (juniors) endoscopists.
This is a multi-site comparative effectiveness randomized controlled trial (RCT) comparing annual fecal immunochemical testing (FIT) and colonoscopy for post-polypectomy surveillance among adults aged 65-82 with a history of colorectal polyps who are due for surveillance colonoscopy.
This double blinded randomized controlled trial aims to assess the efficacy of a novel oral synbiotic formula (SMT04) in reducing adenoma recurrence and colorectal neoplasia-related bacterial gene markers after endoscopic resection of colorectal advanced neoplasia.
To evaluate the accuracy and effectiveness of a novel screening method based on plasma multi-omics combining with artificial intelligence in a large prospective cohort for the detection of colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas.
