Computer Aided Detection of Polyps in Colonoscopy

November 29, 2021 updated by: Iterative Scopes, Inc

Randomized, Controlled Trial of a Computer Aided Detection Device in Standard Colonoscopy

The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical benefit and safety of using a computer aided detection device, Skout, for real-time polyp detection in colonoscopy procedures with the indication of screening or surveillance. One of the reasons for the development of interval colorectal cancers is polyps missed during colonoscopy. Our hypothesis is that with the aid of Skout, the adenomas detected per colonoscopy will increase, and it is plausible to believe that this increase in detection could reduce the incidence of interval cancers.

Study Overview

Status

Status

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.

Study Type

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.
Interventional

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.
1472

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

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

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Description

Inclusion Criteria

Participants will be eligible for this study if they are:

  • Undergoing colonoscopy with screening, surveillance, or diagnostic indications.
  • Undergoing a procedure by a participating endoscopist.
  • Have given informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria

Participants will not be eligible for this study if they:

  • Have a history of inflammatory bowel disease.
  • Have a history of familial adenomatous polyposis.
  • Are under the age of 40.
  • Have had a colonoscopy within the previous three (3) years.
  • Undergoing diagnostic colonoscopy with high-risk indications including iron deficiency anemia, abnormal CT imaging, unexplained weight loss, Lynch Syndrome, blood in stool or FIT positive test.
  • Entered with poor bowel preparation (inadequate for procedure as assessed by the Investigator).
  • Use anti-platelet agents or anticoagulants that preclude the removal of polyps during the procedure.

Study Plan

This section provides details of the study plan, including how the study is designed and what the study is measuring.

How is the study designed?

Design Details

  • Primary Purpose: SCREENING
  • Allocation: RANDOMIZED
  • Interventional Model: PARALLEL
  • Masking: DOUBLE

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm

Participant Group / Arm

A group or subgroup of participants in a clinical trial that receives a specific intervention/treatment, or no intervention, according to the trial's protocol.
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.
NO_INTERVENTION: Control
Routine Colonoscopy
EXPERIMENTAL: Experimental
Routine Colonoscopy with the use of Skout
Device: Computer Aided Detection device
The Computer Aided Detection device, Skout, is designed to help endoscopists detect potential colorectal polyps during colonoscopies. The system performs automated real-time analysis on endoscopic video data to identify potential polyps and produces an informational visual aid around the appropriate sections of the video frames on a display monitor.

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adenomas per colonoscopy
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, 1 day
The total number of adenomas detected divided by the total number of colonoscopies.
At the end of the procedure, 1 day
Positive predictive value
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, 1 day
The total number of adenomas and serrated lesions detected divided by the total number of extractions.
At the end of the procedure, 1 day

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
Measure Description
Time Frame
Adenoma detection rate
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, 1 day
The percentage of participants aged ≥50 years undergoing first-time screening colonoscopy who have one or more conventional adenomas detected.
At the end of the procedure, 1 day
Sessile serrated lesions detected
Time Frame: At the end of the procedure, 1 day
The total number of polyps with histology or serrated adenoma, traditional serrated adenoma or serrated lesion with cytological dysplasia, excluding hyperplastic polyps.
At the end of the procedure, 1 day
Colorectal cancer surveillance interval
