Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: subjects who have undergone curative treatment for primary Colon or rectal cancer of stages II and III (AJCC), and who are in remission and scheduled for clinical follow-up (usually radiological imaging) as part of their surveillance program for recurrence.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject is 18 years or older, and capable and willing to provide informed consent.
  • Subject has undergone curative treatment for primary CRC of stages II and III (AJCC).
  • Subject has no clinical evidence of disease (NED) (after initial treatment)
  • Subject has concluded course of initial treatment for primary CRC (i.e. end of surgery, chemotherapy and/or radiotherapy)
  • Subject is willing/able to provide a blood sample

Who cannot join

  • Subject has evidence of residual disease.
  • Subject has other organ cancer at the time of recruitment.
  • Subject has prior history of recurrent CRC.
  • Subject has concurrent serious non-neoplastic illness that makes enrollment impractical or clinically inappropriate.
  • Subject is receiving chemo- or radiotherapy at the time of blood collection, or between blood collection and radiological imaging.

About this study

Official title: Evaluation of the Performance of the Clinical Genomics Colvera Test in the Detection of Disease Recurrence in Patients Diagnosed With Colorectal Cancer- "NOVA"

To compare the sensitivity and specificity estimates of Colvera with that of a commercially available CEA test for detection of recurrent disease in CRC subjects who are undergoing surveillance for recurrence.

Read the detailed description

This is an observational, prospective comparison study, where blood is collected for assay of methylated BCAT1 and IKZF1 DNA and CEA, from subjects who have undergone curative treatment for primary CRC of stages II and III (AJCC) and who are in remission and scheduled for follow-up radiological imaging as part of their surveillance program for recurrence. Participation is for one visit only as part of each subject's surveillance-monitoring schedule. Two K2-EDTA blood tubes and two PAXgene™ tubes will be collected Any evidence of methylated BCAT1 and/or IKZF1 DNA in blood represents a Colvera "positive" result. CEA levels of 5ug/L or higher will represent a "positive" result. Sensitivity and specificity of the Colvera and CEA test will be estimated and compared in a paired fashion in each case where recurrence status has been investigated and determined by the site clinical management team. Blood testing shall be performed and analyzed by qualified staff blinded to clinical status. This is a cross-sectional observational non-significant risk study, and test results will not be used for clinical management, i.e. there will be no interventions in subjects consenting to participate in this Research Study.

No recurrenceSubjects at least 30 days from end of primary treatment for colorectal cancer in a clinically indicated surveillance program (e.g. ASCO, NCCN) provide a blood sample before the next clinically indicated surveillance scan/imaging. Imaging documents no recurrence.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Colorectal Adenocarcinoma, run by Clinical Genomics Pathology at 12 sites 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 5 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 14 Jul 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites 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?

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?

Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value (time frame: 1.5 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 14 Jul 2020.
