A Prospective Study to Evaluate the Performance of a Real-time System in the Estimation of Colorectal Polyp Size
Hong Kong278 participantsStarted 2025-05-13
Plain-language summary
Colorectal polyp size is related to the risk of exhibiting advanced histological features. Moreover, polyps larger than 10 mm are associated with an elevated risk of metachronous advanced neoplasia and colorectal cancer (CRC). Consequently, accurate measurement of polyp size, especially at the 10 mm threshold is critical for risk stratification and surveillance intervals. Furthermore, polyp size is also important for the choice of the appropriate resection procedures. Underestimation may lead to delayed diagnosis, thereby increasing the risk of colorectal cancer, while overestimation may result in unnecessary surveillance endoscopies.

. Aged 18 years older or above;
. Written informed consent obtained.
Exclusion criteria
. Contraindication to colonoscopy (e.g. intestinal obstruction or perforation)

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
What they're measuring
1
The primary endpoint is the difference in percentage for each measurement in discriminating polyp size at the 10mm threshold
