About this study

Official title: A Randomized Trial Comparing the Adenoma Detection Rates Between EndoRings Colonoscopy (EC) and Standard Colonoscopy (SC).

The study aims to compare the results between a standard colonoscopy to a colonoscopy with an attachment on the distal end of the colonoscope.

Read the detailed description

This will be a prospective, randomized controlled study. Subjects referred for screening or surveillance colonoscopy will be prospectively enrolled. This study aims to compare the adenoma detection rates between EndoRings colonoscopy (EC) and Standard colonoscopy (SC). It is assumed that the proportion of patients with at least one adenoma would be 25% with SC and 35% with EC.

What participants receive

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

  • EndoRings deviceDevice

    Subjects randomized to undergo a colonoscopy procedure with the EndoRings device will have the device placed on the colonoscope that will be used during their procedure.

What is being measured

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

  1. Adenoma Detection Rates

    Number of participants with at least one adenoma detected, during Standard Colonoscopy compared with colonoscopy with EndoRings.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  2. Number of Adenomas Per Colonoscopy

    Comparison of the number of adenomas detected per colonoscopy between standard colonoscopy and EndoRings colonoscopy.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Polyp Detection Rate

    Number of subjects with at least one polyp detected with Standard Colonoscopy compared to colonoscopy with EndoRings.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  2. Number of Detections Per Colonoscopy

    Comparison of the number of polyps detected per colonoscopy between EndoRings colonoscopy and Standard colonoscopy.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  3. Total Number of Detections

    Comparison of the total number of polyps detected and the total number of adenomas detected between EndoRings colonoscopy and Standard colonoscopy.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  4. Cecal Intubation Rate

    Comparison of cecal intubation rate (the number of procedures where the colonoscope was able to be inserted all the way to the cecum) between standard colonoscopy and EndoRings colonoscopy.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  5. Time Comparison for Each Method

    Comparison of the time required to reach the cecum, withdrawal time, and total procedure time.

    Insertion time: time required to reach the cecum Withdrawal time: time calculated from when withdrawing is started in the cecum till the colonoscope is removed. This includes time spent washing, inspecting the colon and removing polyps.

    Total procedure time: This is the sum of insertion and withdrawal times along with any time spent washing or removing polyps while in the cecum (before starting withdrawal).

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

  6. Patient Comfort Score

    Comparison of patient comfort between Standard colonoscopy and EndoRings colonoscopy on a scale of 0 to 10 with 0 being no pain (best outcome) and 10 being worst imaginable pain (worst outcome).

    Measured: After colonoscopy was completed while patient was in recovery area of endoscopy unit

  7. Problems Encountered With Equipment

    Occurrences of slippage of EndoRings or of device being removed on insertion.

    Measured: During colonoscopy procedure

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing EndoRings device in people with Colorectal Adenoma and Colorectal Polyp, run by Indiana University 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 6 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 20 Sep 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 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 20 Sep 2019). 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?

Adenoma Detection Rates (time frame: During colonoscopy procedure). 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?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03418662, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Sep 2019.
