About this study

Official title: A Prospective, Multi-center, Randomized and Self-controlled Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Effectiveness and Safety of Colon Capsule Endoscope System for Capturing and Viewing Colon Images Clinically

The trial is a prospective,multi-center, randomized and self-controlled clinical trial. The research plan will be implemented in a clinical trial center with the qualification of clinical trial agency, and 128 subjects will be planned to be included. Subjects signing the Informed Consent Form, meeting the trial conditions and all inclusion criteria and failing to meet any exclusion criteria will be included in the research. The trial device was Colon Capsule Endoscope System for colonoscopy(PC-I) manufactured by ANKON Technologies Co.,Ltd. while the comparator device was Capsule Endoscopy System(PillCam COLON2) manufactured by Given Imaging Inc. The main evaluation indicator is the excellent rate of image quality, while secondary evaluation indicators are the consistency rate of lesion detection, completion rate of colonoscopy, discharge time of capsule endoscopy, colon passing time and device performance evaluation. Safety evaluation indicators include adverse events(or Serious adverse events), device-related adverse events(or Serious adverse events) and device defects. In the end, the effectiveness and safety of Colon Capsule Endoscopy diagnostic system manufactured by ANKON Technologies Co.,Ltd. for capturing and viewing colon images clinically were verified according to the above indicator results.

Read the detailed description

According to the relevant requirements of Standard for Quality Management of Medical Device Clinical Trials (Order No. 25 of the National Health and Family Planning Commission of the People's Republic of China of China Food and Drug Administration), the sample size was estimated based on the excellent rate of the image quality of the main endpoint by referring to the domestic and foreign literatures using positive comparator devices. Combined with literatures and comments of clinical experts, the research set the excellent rate of image quality of comparator device Ps as 95%, and estimated the excellent rate of image quality of trial device Pt as 95%. In the research, the non-inferiority trial design was adopted, with α = 0.025 (unilateral), assurance 1 - β = 0.8, and non-inferiority boundary value of -10%, and self-control was adopted. It is assumed that the redundant parameter (that is, the proportion of subjects whose evaluation results of image quality between trial devices and comparator devices are inconsistent) was 0.095 (that is, Pt (1 - Ps) + Ps (1 - Pt)), the total sample size of the two groups was 102 cases calculated by PASS2021, with 51 cases in each swallowing orders I and II. Considering the shedding and rejection rate of 20% during the trial, a total of 128 subjects were needed, with 64 cases in each swallowing orders I and II.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • PC-I and COLON2Device

    First swallow the trial device(PC-I) for examination, and then swallow the comparator device(COLON2) for examination at an interval of 2h.

  • COLON2 and PC-IDevice

    First swallow the comparator device(COLON2) for examination, and then swallow the trial device(PC-I) for examination at an interval of 2h.

What is being measured

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

  1. The excellent rate of image quality.

    The main effectiveness evaluation indicator is the excellent rate of image quality, which is for the statistics of the difference between the excellent rate of image quality of trial devices and comparator devices and unilateral 97.5% confidence interval. If the lower limit of unilateral 97.5% confidence interval of the difference between the two groups is greater than -10% of the non-inferiority boundary value, it can be considered that the excellent rate of image quality of trial devices is not inferior to that of comparator devices.

    Measured: 1 day

Secondary outcomes (5)
  1. The consistency rate of lesion detection

    2 associate chief physicians of digestive endoscopy or attending physicians with more than 5 years of endoscopic experience adopted independent film reading in the center for recording of the lesion detection in the image through back-to-back interpretation and analysis. Then record the number of lesions detected consistently.

    Measured: 1 day

  2. Completion rate of colonoscopy

    Colonoscopy is completed before the battery runs out, and the capsule endoscopy captures the rectal segment image or the image that the capsule endoscopy is discharged from the body.

    Measured: 1-14 days

  3. Discharge time of capsule endoscopy

    The discharge time of the capsule endoscopy is from swallowing capsule endoscopy to discharging capsule endoscopy.

    Measured: 1-14 days

  4. Colon passing time

    Colon passing time is from the capsule endoscopy's arrival at the ileocecal valve to the capsule endoscopy's discharge from the body.

    Measured: 0.5-10hours

  5. Device performance evaluation

    Subjective evaluation of the performance of the trial and control devices.

    Measured: 1day

Model description
The trial is a prospective, multi-center,randomized, self-controlled,and non-inferiority design clinical trial. Subjects included in the research were subject to capsule endoscopy in one swallowing order (two in total), which was determined by the pre-generated random number. Swallowing order I: First swallow the trial device(PC-I) for examination, and then swallow the comparator device(COLON2) for examination at an interval of 2h. Swallowing order II: First swallow the comparator device(COLON2) for examination, and then swallow the trial device(PC-I) for examination at an interval of 2h.

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 excellent rate of image quality. (time frame: 1 day). 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.
