About this study

Official title: Randomised Tandem Colonoscopy of Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) and White Light Endoscopy in Patients With Endoscopic Piecemeal Mucosal Resection

This study is designed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) compared with High Definition White Light colonoscopy (WLE) for detection of residual neoplasia in subjects with piecemeal polypectomy scars.

Read the detailed description

Resection of large sessile polyps in the colon (usually more than 2 cm) or those nonpolypoid neoplastic lesions (also called laterally spreading tumors or LST), confers technical difficulty and often are forced to remove into fragmented resection or endoscopic piecemeal mucosal resection. This has been associated with a recurrence of 25%. For this reason, clinical guidelines recommend endoscopic follow-up at 2 to 6 months after piecemeal resection of colorectal polyps to check for residual neoplasia.

Narrow-Band Imaging (NBI, Olympus) improves visibility and identification of the surface and vascular structures of colon polyps. In contrast to conventional chromoendoscopy, it is easily activated by pressing a button on the endoscope.

Virtual or conventional chromoendoscopy are applied during resection of polyps defining the border of the lesion. However, there are few studies using Narrow Band Imaging and do not allow to know whether the use of this technique could improve the detection of residual tumor after fragmented polypectomy and avoid complications, time and costs of biopsy and histological analysis.

In this context, the European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE) has recently published the first Guideline of Advanced Endoscopic Imaging for the Detection and Differentiation of Colorectal Neoplasia and recommends conventional or virtual chromoendoscopy in patients with piecemeal polypectomy scar (strong recommendation, low quality evidence).

The investigators will perform a randomised, controlled trial of tandem colonoscopy using NBI and WLE. The main goal is to compare the rate of detected neoplasia between both techniques and evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of NBI and WLE to histology as the gold standard.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
WLE-NBIExperimentalParticipants will be evaluated by same endoscopist, tandem colonoscopy. It consists of two revisions of the polypectomy scar using firstly High Definition White Light Endoscopy (WLE) and secondly Narrow Band Imaging. All suspected neoplasia will be classified macroscopically and resected and differentiated from both techniques. The rest of the gut will be inspected following conventional standards.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of residual neoplastic tissue detected with both techniques (NBI versus WLE)

    Efficacy of NBI in detecting residual neoplasia compared with WLE

    Measured: less than 1 year after the basal colonoscopy

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of accurate detection of residual neoplastic tissue with morphologic features in both groups (NBI and WLE) compared with histopathology

    Accuracy in detecting neoplastic tissue endoscopically compared with histopathology (gold standard)

    Measured: less than 1 year after the basal colonoscopy

  2. Number of missed lesions on basal colonoscopy

    Compare the number of missed lesions from the basal colonoscopy

    Measured: less than 1 year after the basal colonoscopy

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?

Number of residual neoplastic tissue detected with both techniques (NBI versus WLE) (time frame: less than 1 year after the basal colonoscopy). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02448693, which also lists 8 linked publications.

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.
