About this study

The objective of this low-risk interventional study is to evaluate whether the PreveCol® test has sufficient efficiency to be considered as a second-line method for the detection of both colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas when used prospectively in the screening population with a previous positive FOBT result, which could include any of the following: both sexes, age 50-69 years, asympthomatic volunteers. The main aims to be answered are:

  • Values of efficacy, efficiency, impact and safety of PreveCol.
  • Values of preferences of participants for screening methods.
  • Values of PREMs into screening programme.

Participants will provide a blood sample prior to a screening colonoscopy, and complete two questionnaires. They will give their sample, information and clinical data to the investigator or health care personnel.

Being tested
blood sampling, Survey using a questionnaire.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic value

    Value of efficiency through the clinical performance (sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value) of PreveCol® after FOBT positive result for detecting neoplastic lesions.

    Measured: 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Diagnostic performance of cancer

    Value of PreveCol's efficiency in second line for detecting cancer

    Measured: 12 months

  2. Diagnostic performance of lesions

    Value of PreveCol's efficiency in second line for advanced lesions

    Measured: 12 months

  3. Value of questionnaires into screening programme

    The percentage of number of answers from each preference questions and PREMs

    Measured: 12 months
