Small Hyperplastic and Adenomatous Reliability Protocol (SHARP)

August 28, 2012 updated by: Istituto Clinico Humanitas

Accuracy of Narrow Band Imaging in Predicting Colonoscopy Surveillance Intervals and Histology of Distal Diminutive Polyps (Small Hyperplastic and Adenomatous Reliability Protocol; SHARP Trial)

1. Protocol Summary Title: SHARP: Small Hyperplastic and Adenomatous Reliability Protocol Purpose: To compare the accuracy of NBI-in vivo differentiation between hyperplastic and adenomatous <10 mm polyps with that of histology in an European multi-center study. To assess variability among endoscopists in NBI accuracy. We also aim to assess whether this technology impacts the appropriateness of surveillance intervals.

Design: 1) Before starting the patient enrollment, the participating endoscopists will attend an internet-based training program on the in vivo differentiation between hyperplastic and adenomatous polyps. Following this course, a qualifying examination will be required for each endoscopist to be included.

2) Patients who are scheduled for screening or diagnostic colonoscopy will be considered for inclusion. Patients with at least one histologically verified <10 mm polyp will be included. In order to measure NBI feasibility, each included polyp will be in vivo assessed by NBI in order to rank between a high- and a low- level of diagnostic confidence, and thereafter will be sent for histological assessment. NBI- and histological accuracy in differentiating between hyperplastic and adenomatous lesions will be analyzed and compared, in order to assess the NBI-sensitivity and specificity. The primary outcomes are to measure the NBI feasibility and accuracy in the study population, and to assess the variability among the endoscopists. Secondary outcome measures will be a cost analysis on how much savings would be achieved by not referring NBI-diagnosed hyperplastic polyps to histology, and a clinical inference on how many patients would be scheduled for an inappropriate post-polypectomy follow up, when follow up schedule is based on NBI classification. Clinical results will be analyzed using various statistical measures of significance.

Clinical Site Locations: 10 European centres with NBI-technology

1 NBI-expert endoscopist for each centre Enrollment: 160 small (<10 mm) polyps at each site Study technology: NBI-Olympus without optical magnification Risk: Non-interventional study.

Study Type

Describes the nature of a clinical study. Study types include interventional studies (also called clinical trials), observational studies (including patient registries), and expanded access.
Observational

Enrollment (Actual)

Enrollment

The number of participants in a clinical study. The "anticipated" enrollment is the target number of participants that the researchers need for the study.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Consecutive adult patients who were referred for elective outpatient colonoscopy will be asked to enroll into this trial if the candidate meets the study inclusion and exclusion criteria.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • 1. The patient is undergoing colonoscopy for screening, for surveillance in follow-up of previous polypectomy or for diagnostic work-up; 2. The patient is at satisfactory risk to undergo abdominal surgery; 3. The patient must understand and provide written consent for the procedure.

Exclusion Criteria:

  • 1. The patient is undergoing colonoscopy for screening, for surveillance in follow-up of previous polypectomy or for diagnostic work-up; 2. The patient is at satisfactory risk to undergo abdominal surgery; 3. The patient must understand and provide written consent for the procedure.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
May 1, 2011

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.

Study Completion (Actual)

Study Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention/treatment to collect final data for the primary outcome measures, secondary outcome measures, and adverse events (that is, the last participant's last visit). The "anticipated" study completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the study completion date.
