About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cohort Study Evaluating a Novel Colonoscope With a 230-degree Extra-wide Field of View Optics (EFOV)

The goal of this observation study is to learn about the feasibility of a new colonoscope which provides the physician an extra-wide field of view during a screening colonoscopy. The main question this study aims to answer is can this new type of colonoscope locate polyps during clinical use in patients.

Patients will undergo a routine colonoscopy for colorectal cancer or polyp surveillance and have one follow-up phone call up to 2 weeks of the colonoscopy.

What participants receive

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

  • EFOV ColonoscopeDevice

    Routine colonoscopy using the EFOV lens in the colonoscope.

What is being measured

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

  1. Cecal Intubation Rate

    The proportion of procedures in which the cecum was reached.

    Measured: Day 1

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Procedure Time

    Total procedure time and separated into cecal insertion time, time to reach ileum and withdrawal time.

    Measured: Day 1

  2. Ileum Intubation Rate

    Success rate of reaching the Ileum.

    Measured: Day 1

  3. Therapeutic Intervention Success Rate

    The ability to collect a biopsy or remove a polyp.

    Measured: Day 1

  4. Mean number of polyps per coloscopy and its detection rate

    Count of number of polyps seen during colonoscopy

    Measured: Day 1

  5. Mean number of adenomas and its detection rate

    Count of number of adenomas/sessile serrate lesions defined by pathology

    Measured: Day 14

  6. Mean number of sessile serrate lesions and its detection rate

    Count of number of adenomas/sessile serrate lesions defined by pathology

    Measured: Day 14

  7. Patient Satisfaction Survey

    During a follow-up phone call, the patient will be asked a yes or no question to rate their satisfaction of the procedure.

    Measured: Day 14

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.

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.

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?

Cecal Intubation Rate (time frame: Day 1). 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.
