Trial summary

Linked color imaging (LCI) is newly developed image-enhancing endoscopy technology that differentiates the red color spectrum more effectively than white light imaging thanks to its optimal pre-process composition of light spectrum and advanced signal processing. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Linked Color Imaging (LCI) Versus Standard White-light Colonoscopy for Colorectal Adenoma Detection: a Multicenter, Randomized, Trial

Linked color imaging (LCI) is newly developed image-enhancing endoscopy technology that differentiates the red color spectrum more effectively than white light imaging thanks to its optimal pre-process composition of light spectrum and advanced signal processing. This technology, combined in the latest generation Fujifilm's endoscopes (Fujifilm Co, Tokyo, Japan) with new high-performance LED illumination system, enhances the visibility of colonic mucosal vessels and might increase the detection rate of colorectal polyps. Data available regarding colorectal polyp or adenoma detection with LCI are encouraging but are scanty and limited to back-to back studies.

This two parallel arms, randomized, multicenter trial is aimed at evaluating whether LCI is superior to WL endoscopy in terms of adenoma detection

Read the detailed description

50-75 years-old subjects participating in the regional screening program undergoing their first colonoscopy following a positive immunochemical fecal occult blood test (FIT) and meeting all eligibility criteria are randomised 1:1 to LCI (LCI group) or WLI (WL) during insertion and withdrawal phase of colonoscopy. A randomisation list for each participating center was produced by the coordinating center via computer-generated treatment code list. Randomisation is stratified by gender, age (50-60, 61-729 years) and screening history (first vs subsequent test) through an online centralised study database.All procedures are performed with a high-definition ELUXEO 700 series videocolonscopes with or without magnification (EC-760R, EC-760ZP, FUJIFILM Co., Tokyo).

The primary outcome measure is the ADR, defined as the proportion of participants with at least one adenoma (per-patient analysis).

What is being measured

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

  1. Adenoma Detection Rate

    proportion of participants with at least one adenoma (per-patient analysis)

    Measured: 1 year

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. advanced adenoma detection rate

    proportion of participants with at least one advanced adenoma

    Measured: 1 year

  2. mean number per subject of polyps, adenomas, advanced adenomas and sessile serrated lesions

    total number of detected lesions in each group divided by the total number of participants

    Measured: 1 year

  3. Withdrawal time

    time for mucosal inspection only

    Measured: 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Linked Color Imaging in people with Colon Adenoma and Colonic Polyp, run by Valduce Hospital at 1 site in Italy.

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 1 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 2 Oct 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 Italy. 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 (time frame: 1 year). 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 NCT03690297, 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 2 Oct 2019.
