Filter by:A prospective, single-center, single-arm, non-randomized, post-market pilot study evaluating the technical feasibility of mucosal staining during COLON2 Capsule Endoscopy (CCE) procedure in population at high risk for Colorectal Cancer (CRC), when using MB-MMX (Methylene Blue). Up to 15 subjects will be enrolled in 1 center located in Spain. Study duration- up to 10 months from study approval.
The overall aim of the study is to increase participation rates in cervical cancer (CCU) and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening programmes in Denmark by offering home-based CCU and CRC screening to women who are overdue for one or both screening programmes when attending breast cancer screening
The investigators will perform a pilot implementation study of a default genetics referral process among patients with young-onset CRC diagnosed between ages 40 and 49.
This is a randomized controlled trial that will evaluate the effectiveness of different reminder modalities for a population-based mailed FIT program at the VA Puget Sound among average risk Veterans who are due for annual colorectal cancer (CRC) screening.
In this project, we intend to conduct a randomized pilot trial of a structured behavioral intervention, grounded in the Theory of Planned Behavior and Self-Determination Theory, to promote adherence of patients aged 45 - 75 to USPSTF colorectal cancer screening recommendations. We will also collect qualitative feedback on perceptions of the intervention to inform its refinement.
Several recent studies have shown that the Enhanced Recovery After Surgery (ERAS) protocol reduces morbidity and mortality and shortens the length of stay compared to conventional recovery strategy (pre-ERAS). The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of the implementation of this protocol on 3-year overall survival and postoperative outcome in patients undergoing colorectal resection for cancer.
Among Latinos, a fast growing and underserved population, Colorectal Cancer (CRC) is the third leading cause of cancer death in men and in women. Compared to non-Latino whites, Latinos are less likely to be diagnosed with localized CRC and more likely to be diagnosed with advanced stage disease. Of the recommended CRC screening tests, a colonoscopy allows for both the detection and removal of precancerous and cancerous polyps. Although screening colonoscopies can detect and prevent CRC, more than half of Latinos have not received a screening colonoscopy within the recommended time frame (one screening colonoscopy per ten years). The purpose of this study is to develop and begin to test an electronically-delivered motivational interviewing progressive web application (e-MI app), called Motívate. The Motívate app will be offered in both English and Spanish to patients who self-identify as Latino/a/x, after they receive a referral for a screening colonoscopy.
The CELTiC panel is a potential blood-based test for detecting colorectal cancer (CRC) and precursors of CRC. This can be useful for CRC screening, since this requires tests that detect cancer in an early stage to maximize the chances of successful treatment. CELTiC combines four markers that can be detected in blood. These markers are composed of so-called messenger RNA (mRNA) and can be viewed as the instructions of our genes to the cell to make certain proteins. Cancer is the result of mutation in these genes. Thus, the mRNA in cancer patients is, depending on the type of mRNA, often abnormal. In earlier studies, the developers of CELTiC found four mRNA's that are different in patients with CRC compared to healthy individuals. However, CELTiC has not yet been extensively studied in individuals for whom the test is intended: a population undergoing CRC screening. The current study aims to fill this gap. We will assess the ability of CELTiC to detect CRC and precursors of CRC in a population of individuals between 50 and 75 years old in the Netherlands and Italy. This population has already been preselected by having a positive fecal immunochemical test (FIT), a test that is frequently used in CRC screening. This population will undergo a colonoscopy, a procedure where a doctor enters the large bowel through the anus using a flexible camara to assess whether the patient has cancer. Prior to this colonoscopy, we will collect blood samples from the individuals to assess their CELTiC score. After the colonoscopy and the blood analysis, we can assess whether the test adequately detects CRC and precursors of CRC in this population.
The purpose of the study is to examine the efficacy of educational materials to promote hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening and colorectal cancer (CRC) screening uptake among adults born between 1945-1965.
This is a pathogenic mutation profile of colorectal patients specifically in 5 genes, i.e. APC, TP53, PIK3CA, KRAS, and MLH1. Single nucleotide variants identified were synchronized with patients' characteristics.
