About this study

This pilot, multi center study will establish the effectiveness of Given PillCam® Platform with the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule as demonstrated by the identification of subjects with polyps, compared to standard colonoscopy.

This study will also use to evaluate the administrative feasibility and data management of study design.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PillCam Colon 2Device

    Each subject will be required to follow a bowel preparation regimen and will undergo Capsule Endoscopy (CE).

    Following capsule ingestion and depending on capsule progression through the digestive tract subjects will be required to take an additional volume of laxatives in order to enhance capsule propulsion and maintain adequate cleansing of the colon.

  • ColonoscopyDevice

    The colonoscopy procedure will be scheduled approximately 4-6 weeks after the CE procedure, and the colonoscopy bowel preparation will be the same as the bowel preparation for CE.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) for Polyps Per Subject - Sensitivity

    PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) compared to standard colonoscopy in detecting subjects with polyps equal to or larger than 6 mm and 10 mm as measured by Sensitivity. A positive event was defined as per optical colonoscopy polyp size measurement. Standard colonoscopy is the gold standard.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

  2. Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) for Polyps Per Subject - Specificity

    PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) compared to standard colonoscopy in detecting subjects with polyps equal to or larger than 6 mm and 10 mm as measured by Specificity. A positive event was defined as per optical colonoscopy polyp size measurement. Standard colonoscopy is the gold standard.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) Detecting Polyps Per Location - Sensitivity

    PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) compared to standard colonoscopy was evaluated by clustered sensitivity for polyps equal to or larger than 6 mm and 10 mm as measured by Sensitivity. A positive event was defined as per optical colonoscopy polyp size measurement. Standard colonoscopy is the gold standard.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

  2. Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) Detecting Polyps Per Location - Specificity

    PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) compared to standard colonoscopy was evaluated by clustered sensitivity for polyps equal to or larger than 6 mm and 10 mm as measured by Specificity. A positive event was defined as per optical colonoscopy polyp size measurement. Standard colonoscopy is the gold standard.

    Measured: Up to 6 weeks

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing PillCam Colon 2 and Colonoscopy in people with Colorectal Lesions, run by Medtronic - MITG at 1 site in United States.

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 2 inclusion and 25 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 1 Oct 2020. 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 United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 1 Oct 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Accuracy of the PillCam® Colon 2 Capsule Endoscopy (CE) for Polyps Per Subject - Sensitivity (time frame: Up to 6 weeks). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 1 Oct 2020.
