Trial summary

A recent multicentre randomised controlled trial compared autofluorescence imaging (AFI) with CE for dysplasia detection in colonoscopy surveillance of patients with longstanding UC (FIND-UC). In this study, CE detected significantly more dysplastic lesions per patient compared with AFI. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Clinical Value of Chromoendoscopy as Surveillance Strategy for Dysplasia Detection in Ulcerative Colitis: an Observational Follow-up Study

A recent multicentre randomised controlled trial compared autofluorescence imaging (AFI) with CE for dysplasia detection in colonoscopy surveillance of patients with longstanding UC (FIND-UC). In this study, CE detected significantly more dysplastic lesions per patient compared with AFI. It is unclear whether this increased dysplasia detection also translates to a reduction of dysplasia at follow-up colonoscopy. The aim of this pre-specified study is therefore to prospectively determine whether there is a difference in dysplasia detection at follow-up colonoscopy between UC patients who were randomized to AFI or CE at index colonoscopy for the FIND-UC trial.

What is being measured

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

  1. the proportion of patients in which at least one histological proven dysplastic lesions was detected at follow-up colonoscopy.

    the proportion of patients in which at least one histological proven dysplastic lesions was detected at follow-up colonoscopy.

    Measured: during surveillance colonoscopy

Secondary outcomes (5)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ulcerative Colitis and Chromoendoscopy, run by Academisch Medisch Centrum - Universiteit van Amsterdam (AMC-UvA) at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 10 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 31 Jan 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 Netherlands. 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?

the proportion of patients in which at least one histological proven dysplastic lesions was detected at follow-up colonoscopy. (time frame: during surveillance colonoscopy). 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 31 Jan 2019.
