Trial summary

Over the last years a number of new endoscopic imaging modalities have been introduced (high-definition and virtual chromoendoscopy). Given the theoretical advantage of these new imaging techniques, the investigators aimed to investigate their use for the detection of polyps during colonoscopy. Read more about this study

What is being measured

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

  1. Adenoma detection rate (ADR)

    Percentage of colonoscopies with detection of 1 or more adenomas. ADR is a well-established quality indicator in colonoscopy in the prevalence of adenomas detected (ADR) as recommended by American Society for Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ASGE)/American College of Gastroenterology Task Force (ACGTF) and European Society of Gastrointestinal Endoscopy (ESGE). Guidelines stipulate to use ADR as main quality indicator in colonoscopy.

    Measured: 7-10 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of adenomas

    Adenoma per colonoscopy rate (APCR)

    Measured: 7-10 days

  2. Type of adenomas

    Subtypes of adenomas: tubular adenomas, tubulovillous adenomas, sessile serrated adenomas and adenocarcinomas

    Measured: 7-10 days

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing High-definition, Virtual chromoendoscopy and Standard in people with Colonic Adenoma, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 1 site in Belgium.

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 5 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 27 Jan 2023. 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 Belgium. 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?

Adenoma detection rate (ADR) (time frame: 7-10 days). 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 NCT03243669, which also lists 2 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.

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 27 Jan 2023.
