Read the detailed description

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second commonest cancer in Hong Kong, and tends to be increasing. Screening for colorectal cancer can reduce the cancer incidence and mortality by detecting early lesions. However, the best interval for a follow up colonoscopy, particularly for those with normal baseline colonoscopy, remains largely unknown.

This study aim to determine the prevalence of colonic neoplasm in average-risk patients who had previously undergone screening colonoscopy and the optimal time interval for re-screening.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. The prevalence of advanced colonic adenoma in the re-screening population

    Measured: 5 year from index colonoscopy

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The time to adenoma adenoma development according to different baseline characteristics of patients and colonoscopy findings

    Measured: 5 years from index colonoscopy

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colonic Cancer, run by Chinese University of Hong Kong at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 5 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 May 2008. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The prevalence of advanced colonic adenoma in the re-screening population (time frame: 5 year from index colonoscopy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 May 2008.
