September 22, 2025 updated by: Metabiomics Corp

Subject Enrollment and Specimen Collection Protocol to Validate the Performance of the LifeKit® Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test for Colorectal Cancer Screening

The purpose of this study is to determine the sensitivity and specificity for LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test for colorectal cancer (CRC) and for adenoma, including advanced adenoma.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Suspended

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

Subjects 40 years of age and older scheduled for a screening colonoscopy will be enrolled. Subjects will collect a stool sample that will be tested by the LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test at a central laboratory and that will be tested using a commercially available FIT. After sample collection, subjects will undergo a screening colonoscopy per standard of care. Investigators will be blinded to the results of the LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test during the study; the LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test and FIT results will not be used for clinical management of subjects. Personnel performing the colonoscopy and reports from the colonoscopy and personnel performing the histopathological review of the tissue and/or any reports will remain blinded to the results of the LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test results.

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

40 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

Yes

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Subjects 40 years of age and older who are eligible for colorectal cancer screening and scheduled for a screening colonoscopy per standard of care. Approximately 12,000 subjects will be targeted for enrollment.

Description

  1. Subject is ≥ 40 years of age at the time of enrollment.
  2. Subject presents for a screening colonoscopy per standard of care.
  3. Subject has no symptoms or signs that require immediate, or near term, referral for diagnostic or therapeutic colonoscopy.
  4. Subject is able and willing to sign informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:

An individual meeting any of the below criteria is ineligible.

  1. Subject has a history of CRC or advanced precancerous lesions.

  2. Subject has a diagnosis or medical history of any of the following conditions:

    • Familial adenomatous polyposis (also referred to as "FAP", including attenuated FAP and Gardner's syndrome)
    • Hereditary non-polyposis CRC syndrome (also referred to as "HNPCC" or "Lynch Syndrome")
    • Other hereditary cancer syndromes, including but are not limited to, Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, MYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP), Turcot's (or Crail's) Syndrome, Cowden's Syndrome, Juvenile Polyposis, Neurofibromatosis, or Familial Hyperplastic Polyposis
  3. Subject has a diagnosis or personal history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), including chronic ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease.
  4. Subject has a diagnosis of Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome.
  5. Subject has had a positive Cologuard, fecal occult blood test or FIT within the previous 2 years.
  6. Subject has undergone a colonoscopy within the previous 9 years.
  7. Subject has had overt rectal bleeding within the previous 30 days.
  8. Subject has any condition that in the opinion of the Investigator should preclude participation in the study.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Time Frame
Sensitivity and specificity for the LifeKit Prevent Colorectal Neoplasia Test for adenoma, including advanced adenoma
Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 180 days
Through study completion, an average of 180 days

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure

Primary Completion (Estimated)

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.
