NCT ID: NCT03967756 Recruiting - Colonic Polyps Clinical Trials

Impact of Automatic Polyp Detection System on Adenoma Detection Rate

Start date: June 1, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In recent years, with the continuous development of artificial intelligence, automatic polyp detection systems have shown its potential in increasing the colorectal lesions. Yet, whether this system can increase polyp and adenoma detection rates in the real clinical setting is still need to be proved. The primary objective of this study is to examine whether a combination of colonoscopy and a deep learning-based automatic polyp detection system is a feasible way to increase adenoma detection rate compared to standard colonoscopy.

9 Minutes for Colonoscopy Withdrawal

Start date: January 20, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

A withdrawal time of at least 6 minutes has been considered to be necessary to guarantee the adenoma detection rate and the critical quality criterion of colonoscopy. However, several large observational investigations demonstrated that 9 minutes will be in favor of higher adenoma detection rate and lower risk of interval colorectal cancer, when compared with 6-minute withdrawal. Meanwhile, a few studies also indicated that no significant benefit were observed in longer withdrawal time. Up to now, no randomized controlled trials have been conducted to give a definitive conclusion. Therefore, we performed a multicenter, prospective, randomized Controlled trial to compare adenoma detection rate of 6-minute and 9-minute withdrawal in colonoscopy.

Primary Chemoprevention of Familial Adenomatous Polyposis With Berberine Hydrochloride

Start date: September 1, 2017
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

In recent years, Berberine hydrochloride has been reported to inhibit cancer cell proliferation and to be cytotoxic towards cancer cells. Patients with familial adenomatous polyposis have a nearly 100 percent risk of colorectal cancer. The aim of this study is to investigate the chemopreventive effects Berberine hydrochlorid on the regression of colorectal adenomas.

NCT ID: NCT03281096 Completed - Colorectal Adenomas Clinical Trials

A Research of Berberine Hydrochloride to Prevent Colorectal Adenomas in Patients With Previous Colorectal Cancer

Start date: August 29, 2017
Phase: Phase 2/Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

Experimental studies in animals and observational studies in humans suggest that fusobacterium nucleatum is associates with stages of colorectal neoplasia development, and Berberine Hydrochloride could rescue Fusobacterium nucleatum-induced colorectal tumorigenesis by modulating the tumor microenvironment. Whether regular Berberine Hydrochloride use may decrease the risk of colorectal adenomas, the precursors to most colorectal cancers is worth to further study.

Water-aided Colonoscopy vs Air Insufflation Colonoscopy in Colorectal Cancer Screening

Start date: February 2014
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The degree of protection afforded by colonoscopy against proximal colorectal cancer (CRC) appears to be related to the quality of the procedure, and the incomplete removal of lesions has been shown to increase the subsequent risk of developing a colon cancer. Some studies suggest that small polyps with advanced histology are more common in the right than in the left colon (right colon proximal to splenic flexure, left colon distal to the splenic flexure). The average size of polyps in the right colon with advanced pathology or containing adenocarcinoma was ≤9 mm, whereas in the left colon their average size was >9 mm, P<0.001. Inadequate prevention of right-sided CRC incidence and mortality may be due to right-sided polyps with advanced histology or that harbor malignancy. These presumptive precursors of cancer are smaller and possibly more easily obscured by residual feces, and more likely to be missed at colonoscopy. Water-aided colonoscopy (WAC) can be subdivided broadly into two major categories: water immersion (WI), characterized by suction removal of the infused water predominantly during the withdrawal phase of colonoscopy, and water exchange (WE), characterized by suction removal of infused water predominantly during the insertion phase of colonoscopy. In some reports WE appeared to be superior to both WI and air insufflation colonoscopy (AI) in terms of pain reduction and adenoma detection, particularly for <10 mm adenomas in the proximal colon. In this multicenter, double-blinded randomized controlled trial (RCT) we test the hypothesis that that WE, compared to AI and WI, will enhance overall Adenoma Detection Rate (ADR) in CRC screening patients. Confirmation of the primary hypothesis will provide evidence that WE enhances the quality of screening colonoscopy. We also hypothesize that WE may be more effective in detecting proximal colon adenomas than WI and AI, particularly <10 mm adenomas, thus increasing proximal colon ADR and proximal colon ADR <10 mm. Confirmation of secondary hypotheses will provide justification for further testing that WE may provide a strategy to improve prevention of colorectal cancer by increasing detection of adenomas in screening colonoscopy. Unlike previous reports of single colonoscopist studies, the insertion and withdrawal phases of colonoscopy will be done by different investigators. The second investigator will be blinded to the method used to insert the instrument, thus eliminating possible bias about procedure related issues. Several secondary outcomes will also be analysed.

Comparison of Methods to Distend the Colon During Insertion: CO2, Air Insufflation, Water-aided Colonoscopy

Start date: October 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Insufflation of the colon, usually with room air, is necessary to distend the lumen for exploration. Carbon dioxide (CO2) insufflation instead of room air insufflation (AI) has been shown to decrease symptoms of abdominal pain or discomfort during the procedure and particularly during the following 24 hours. CO2 is is rapidly absorbed by the intestinal mucosa and exhaled through respiration. AI colonoscopy has usually been the reference standard to compare colonoscopy using CO2 insufflation. In two recent articles AI was compared to either CO2 insufflation and Water-aided colonoscopy (WAC), which entails infusion of water to facilitate insertion to the cecum. WAC can be categorized broadly in Water Immersion (WI) and Water Exchange (WE). In WI water is infused during the insertion phase of colonoscopy, with removal of infused water predominantly during withdrawal. Occasional use of insufflation may be allowed. WE entails complete exclusion of insufflation, removal of residual colonic air pockets and feces, and suction of infused water predominantly during insertion to minimize distention. During the withdrawal phase insufflation is used to distend the colonic lumen. In the WAC arms of the two mentioned articles the insertion method used was WI, with infusion of water at room temperature or at 37°C. During withdrawal, air insufflation or either air or CO2 insufflation were employed. Compared to AI, CO2 insufflation and WI (using room air insufflation or CO2 insufflation during withdrawal) were effective in both studies in decreasing sedation requirement, pain and tolerance scores, with patients' higher willingness to repeat the procedure. Until now no direct comparison has been made within a single study about pain score during colonoscopy using AI, CO2 insufflation, WI/CO2, WE/CO2, WI/AI and WE/AI. In this study we test the hypothesis that, compared to AI, CO2 insufflation and WAC/CO2-AI methods will decrease pain score during colonoscopy, with reduction of sedation requirement, and that WE will achieve the best result. This comparative study has also the aim to test the respective peculiarities of each method.

NCT ID: NCT01781650 Completed - Pain Clinical Trials

A Comparison of Air Insufflation, Water Immersion and Water Exchange Colonoscopy in Diagnostic Patients

Start date: March 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Water-aided method for colonoscopy can be broadly subdivided into two major categories. Water Immersion (WI), characterized by suction removal of the infused water predominantly during the withdrawal phase of colonoscopy, and Water Exchange (WE), characterized by suction removal of infused water predominantly during the insertion phase of colonoscopy. Several studies showed that WE significantly reduces pain compared to WI and colonoscopy with traditional air insufflation (AI), increases the number of unsedated procedures and adenoma detection rate (ADR), in particular proximal ADR. This randomized controlled trial will be a direct comparison of Air Insufflation, Water Immersion and Water Exchange to test the hypothesis that WAC (particularly WE) would significantly decrease pain score during colonoscopy in diagnostic patients. Several other secondary outcomes will also be analyzed.
