About this study

Official title: Feasibility, Multi-center Prospective Study of Check-Cap's P1 Capsule System in Patients Eligible for ColoRectal Cancer [CRC] Screening

Prospective, Single arm, Multi-Center

  1. To establish the safety and preliminary efficacy of the Check-Cap System in patients with negative FOBT (Fecal Occult Blood Test)
  2. To collect data about the overall imaging of the colon internal surface during the passage of the capsule
  3. To develop a correlation map between the imaging of the polyps by optical colonoscopy vs. the images of same polyps by the Check-Cap capsule vs. the imaging of same polyps by CT Colonography [CTC] (in patients which were referred after positive CTC examination)
Read the detailed description

Study Title:

Outside USA [OUS] Pilot Multi-center prospective feasibility study

Objectives:

Primary:

To establish the safety and preliminary efficacy of the Check-Cap System in patients with negative FOBT (Fecal Occult Blood Test) or FIT

Secondary:

  • To evaluate the safety of the device in terms of total and segmental transit time and to study the effect of the presence of polyps and variable colon dimensions on these parameters.
  • To monitor the functionality of the activation mechanism and of the scanning circuitry (transmitter detectors).
  • To collect data about the overall imaging of the colon internal surface during the passage of the capsule
  • To develop a correlation map between the imaging of the polyps by optical colonoscopy vs. the images of same polyps by the Check-Cap capsule vs. the imaging of same polyps by CT Colonography (in patients which were referred after positive CTC examination)
  • To estimate the total radiation exposure to each patient.
  • To measure the distribution of the contrast material within the colon.

Design:

Prospective, Single arm, Multi-Center

Patient population:

Group A - First in Man:

Male and female subjects older than 40 and younger than 75 years old that are eligible for CRC screening and meet the eligibility criteria for study enrollment.

The study population will be enriched with up to 45 patients with known polyps detected by CTC or colonoscopy, in addition to 15 patient of the device's normal cohort.

All patients that are eligible for enrollment in the study will be tested by FOBT (Fecal Occult Blood Test) After the Capsule test, they will be referred for optical colonoscopy as part of the study

Group B - CE Pilot:

Male and female subjects older than 45 and younger than 75 years old that are eligible for CRC screening and meet the eligibility criteria for study enrollment.

All patients that are eligible for enrollment in the study will be tested by FIT ,. After the Capsule test they will be referred for optical colonoscopy Consenting patients with negative FIT testing scheduled for clinically-indicated optical colonoscopy without contraindication to either Check-Cap System imaging or optical colonoscopy, and able to undergo the bowel preparation necessary for optical colonoscopy.

Sample Size:

Total of 100 patients in both groups: A:3-5 + B: 55-57 subjects.

Study Procedure:

  1. st visit - recruitment and screening meeting with the Principal Investigator [PI]. Subject will receive the FIT test kit with detailed instructions for executing the test.
  2. nd visit - The FIT kits will be analyzed in order to diagnose the presence of blood in the stool. If the bowel log form is complete and the bowel frequency is not less than once per 2 days the subject will be asked to sign the Informed Consent Form [ICF] for ingesting the capsule.
  3. rd visit - Subject will ingest the capsule and continue ingestion of contrast material.
  4. th visit - Subjects will return to the PI with the excreted capsule which is expected within 24-100 hours after ingestion.
  5. th visit - All patients will undergo standard bowel preparation and optical colonoscopy between 10 and 30 days following imaging with the Check-Cap System.

What participants receive

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

What is being measured

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

  1. safety - transit time (less than 300 hours)

    To evaluate the safety of the device in terms of total and segmental transit time and to study the effect of the presence of polyps and variable colon dimensions on these parameters. The measured effect is the correlation of the capsule transit time (hours) with the number of polyps and their size (in mm).

    Measured: after each subject (once the capsule in excreted, typically 30-80 hours)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Colon Capsule correlation map (Empirical, qualitative)

    To develop a correlation map between the imaging of the polyps by optical colonoscopy vs. the images of same polyps by the Check-Cap capsule vs. the imaging of same polyps by CT Colonography (in patients which were referred after positive CTC examination). No quantitative data here, only qualitative comparison between the scanning of the inner surface of the colon by the 3 independedt imaging modalities. No statistical plan or sample size justification would be provided, as is convention for pilot studies.

    Measured: end of study (anticipted within 12 months)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing The P1 Check-Cap capsule in people with ColoRectal Cancer and Colonic Polyps, run by Check-Cap Ltd. at 1 site in Israel.

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 4 inclusion and 9 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 4 Feb 2019. 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 Israel. 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 was stopped early (reason given: All trials ojectives were met). Results are not available in the source record.

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?

safety - transit time (less than 300 hours) (time frame: after each subject (once the capsule in excreted, typically 30-80 hours)). 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 4 Feb 2019.
