About this study

Official title: Artificial Intelligence Validation Trial for Polyp Detection: Pilot Study

Interventional prospective multicenter study: Polyp detection by an automated endoscopic tool as second observer during routine diagnostic colonoscopy

Read the detailed description

This is an investigator-initiated multicentre non-randomized prospective interventional trial to validate the performance of a novel state-of-the-art computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) tool in polyp detection implemented as second observer during routine diagnostic colonoscopy and to evaluate its feasibility in daily endoscopy. Patients referred for a screening surveillance or therapeutic colonoscopy will undergo a colonoscopy performed by an endoscopist with moderate to high adenoma detection rate (ADR > 20% and < 50%) while a second observer will follow the procedure on a bedside AI-tool to count the number of detections made by the AI system and categorize the results into positive or negative results as follows (1) true positive, (2) false negative, (3) other positive and (4) obvious false positive. When a doubtful detection is made by the AI-system, the second observer will ask to re-evaluate the indicated region. When the detection is clear, the endoscopist and second observer do not communicate. The entire procedure is recorded.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy of the novel AI system compared to endoscopic diagnosis as gold standard

    Determination of the diagnostic accuracy of the novel AI system as second observer

    Measured: 4 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Endoscopist's polyp miss rate as number of extra AI detections

    Determination of the AI system's precision and extra value as second observer

    Measured: 4 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Artificial intelligence for polyp detection in people with Polyp of Colon, run by Universitaire Ziekenhuizen KU Leuven at 1 site in Belgium.

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 7 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 7 May 2020. 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 Belgium. 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?

Diagnostic accuracy of the novel AI system compared to endoscopic diagnosis as gold standard (time frame: 4 months). 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 7 May 2020.
