About this study

Official title: Evaluation of a Lifestyle Intervention Among Participants of the French Colorectal Cancer Screening Program (LIFE-SCREEN Pilot)

The study aims to evaluate the impact of promoting advice on the latest evidence-based diet and lifestyle recommendations for cancer prevention at colorectal cancer (CRC) screening among individuals who may be at higher risk for developing CRC. The overall aim of this LIFE-SCREEN pilot study is to test the trial methods and procedures to be used in the LIFE-SCREEN cluster randomized RCT, in order to discover obstacles and problems prior to the main RCT so that corrective actions can be taken to improve the research process.

The patients (n=40) will be recruited at the Centre Léon Bérard and at the Hôpital Edouard Herriot at the time of CRC screening.

After inclusion, the intervention material (documents explaining the strategies to achieve and maintain recommended behaviours as part of a healthier lifestyle) may be given to the patient during the pre-colonoscopy consultation and/or at the post-colonoscopy visit. Weight, height and blood pressure will be measured during the pre-colonoscopy consultation. Patients will be invited to complete a baseline questionnaire to collect information on their lifestyle, state of health and socio-demographic status. Approximately four to six weeks after, patients will also be asked to complete an evaluation questionnaire asking for their opinion on this material and the procedures. Focus groups with available and willing participants and hospital staff will be organized at the end of the pilot phase recruitment, to gather additional information on the intervention procedures. In addition, all hospital staff will be asked to complete an assessment questionnaire.

Biological samples will then also be collected to test the objective baseline measure of nutritional changes used in the RCT. In order to assess the feasibility and the acceptability of urine, faecal and blood sample collection in this population, the first ten participants recruited (n=10) will be given the option to refuse one or more of the biological sample collections (phase I). Participants will also be asked to complete a questionnaire to provide information on their opinion and willingness to donate biological samples. This assessment questionnaire will allow us to refine the strategies for the other 30 participants (phase II). In this phase II, biological samples will be compulsory (phase IIa) or optional (phase IIb) for all 30 participants.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Lifestyle intervention in people with Colorectal Cancer, run by Centre Leon Berard at 2 sites in France.

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 7 inclusion and 15 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 12 Feb 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in France. 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?

Changes in adherence to the lifestyle recommendations between baseline and the 4 week follow-up (time frame: Change between Baseline and Week 4). 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 12 Feb 2024; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 2 Nov 2026.
