About this study

This prospective randomized clinical trial aims to evaluate the new Optivista system compared to the iScan for his optical diagnosis and interval agreement monitoring with pathology. The Participants will be randomized to be diagnosed by either Optivista or Pentax iScan, and all polyps detected during the procedure, their size, location and morphology will be recorded according to the Paris classification after which all polyps will be resected per standard practices and sent for histopathologic evaluation. Further optical assessments will be performed for all polyps of 1-10 mm in size (WASP, NICE, SANO and SIMPLE classification) after with an analysis of comparison between optical diagnosis and pathology results will be performed.

Read the detailed description

The benefit of colonoscopy screening is based on the detection and removal of polyps neoplastic. However, the vast majority of found polyps do not harbor any risk of non-cancer neoplastic. The resection evaluation and histopathology of these polyps are associated with costs while the contribution to cancer prevention is limited. A new technique (Pentax Optivista) based on visual diagnosis of polyps has been introduced to reduce the costs associated with over-screening, and seems to be more efficient than the Pentax iScan technique.

This research project aims to evaluate the new Optivista system compared to the iScan for his optical biopsy performance and interval agreement monitoring with pathology.

This is a prospective clinical trial for which participants are recruited directly from the colonoscopy clinic. The Participants will be randomized to be diagnosed by either Optivista or Pentax iScan. Endoscope withdrawal will be done in iScan 1 mode for patients randomized to iSan and in Optivista OE2 mode for patients randomized to Optivista.

For all polyps detected during the procedure, their size, location and morphology will be recorded according to the Paris classification after which all polyps will be resected per standard practices and sent for histopathologic evaluation.

Polyps that are between 1-10mm in size (diminutive and small polyps), there will be further assessed according to WASP, NICE, SANO and SIMPLE classifications using white light imaging and using an image-enhancing endoscopy technology that enhances visualisation of the polyp surface and vascular patterns.

Concordance between optical diagnosis and pathology monitoring according to recommendations will be presented as proportions with a 95% CI. The features optical polyp diagnostic test for overall diminutive (1-5mm) polyps and by location in the colon (proximal, distal, colon and rectosigmoid segments) will be presented. For outcome measures secondary factors, including factors that may influence the optical diagnosis, proportional estimates with a 95% confidence interval (CI) will be presented. Concordance between strategies is examined using a marginal homogeneity test (Stuart-Maxwell test). For the comparison of proportions, a chi square test or a Fisher's exact two-sided test will be used, as appropriate.

What participants receive

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

  • Screening colonoscopy according to resect-and-discard strategyDiagnostic test

    This strategy uses image enhancing techniques and optical diagnosis instead of histopathology assessment with 2 Pentax optical imaging systems (either Optivista or iScan).

What is being measured

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

  1. Concordance of Optical diagnosis with the pathology based reference standard

    The Optical diagnosis of polyps using Optivista or iScan will be compared with the pathology based reference standard.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Rate of polyps detected of both of the technologies (Optivista and iScan) for Optical diagnosis

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Negative predictive value of rectosigmoid neoplastic polyps.

    Secondary outcomes and data collection include test characteristics, particularly the negative predictive value of rectosigmoid neoplastic polyps.

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Concordance of biopsies with WASP classification

    Verification of concordance (yes/no) between histopathological results (biopsies) and WASP classification for polyps up to 10mm in size in conjunction with iScan and Optivista (depending on randomization).

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Concordance of biopsies and SIMPLE classification

    Verification of concordance (yes/no) between histopathological results (biopsies) and SIMPLE classification for polyps up to 10mm in size in conjunction with iScan and Optivista (depending on randomization).

    Measured: 12 months

  4. Concordance of biopsies and SANO classification

    Verification of concordance (yes/no) between histopathological results (biopsies) and SANO classification for polyps up to 10mm in size in conjunction with iScan and Optivista (depending on randomization).

    Measured: 12 months

  5. Concordance of biopsies and NICE classification

    Verification of concordance (yes/no) between histopathological results (biopsies) and NICE classification for polyps up to 10mm in size in conjunction with iScan and Optivista (depending on randomization).

    Measured: 12 months

  6. Surveillance recommendation following the colonoscopy

    The proportion of patients for whom an immediate surveillance recommendation following the colonoscopy can be directly provided for each approach and how often histopathology polyp examination would have been avoided when using each strategy will be examined.

    Measured: 12 months

  7. Evaluate Polyp-Based Resect and Discard model

    Surveillance interval agreement of the PBRD strategy compared with pathology-based management according to the 2020 USMSTF guidelines.

    Measured: 12 months

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 3 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 19 Jul 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Concordance of Optical diagnosis with the pathology based reference standard (time frame: 12 months). 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 NCT03515343, 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 19 Jul 2021.
