Efficacy of CAD in Screening Colonoscopy to Reduce the Risk of Advanced Adenoma at 3 Years. (IA-COLO 2)

March 13, 2026 updated by: University Hospital, Bordeaux

Randomized Controlled Trial Evaluating the Efficacy of CAD in Screening Colonoscopy to Reduce the Risk of Advanced Adenoma at 3 Years.

The occurrence of interval cancers after colonoscopy raises the possibility of missed lesions. High- performance computer aided diagnosis (CAD) systems have been specially designed for the detection of colorectal lesions (CAD for detection is named CADe). The use of CADe improves adenoma detection in screening colonoscopy. The potential of CADe system in reducing the rate of progression to advanced polyps or interval cancer between two colonoscopies remains still uncertain.

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

Patients will be enrolled after a pre-colonoscopy consultation and risk-assessment for colorectal cancer. The screening colonoscopy will be performed by an investigator. Patients will be randomized in the endoscopy room after confirmed cecal intubation and quality of bowel preparation. Randomization into two groups: standard colonoscopy vs. colonoscopy with CADe (CAD EYE or GENIUS) (1:1). A follow-up consultation will be scheduled one-month postcolonoscopy for delivery of histological results and then at 3 years in order to organize the next colonoscopy. As part of the study, a new control colonoscopy will be scheduled for patients with high risk of CRC at 3 years. The 3-year control colonoscopy will be performed with the CAD system for all patients. The colonoscopy will be performed by another investigator who does not know the results nor the type of the first colonoscopy (evaluator blinded). In the low-risk group, we will collect follow-up data as part of routine care, including the results of colonoscopies performed outside of the protocol

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
Advanced adenoma
Time Frame: 36 months
The proportion of patients presenting at least one advanced adenoma detected after a 3-year follow-up period. An advanced adenoma is defined as an adenoma or sessile serrate adenoma (SSL) larger than 1cm (size confirmed by the CAD system and/or size estimation by snare), and/or with high-grade dysplasia or neoplasia (confirmed by histological analysis).
36 months

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
Number of adenoma
Time Frame: 36 months
Average number of adenoma or SSL (confirmed by histological analysis) detected in each patient during screening colonoscopy after a 3-year follow-up period
36 months
Estimation of the sensitivity of CADx
Time Frame: Day0, 36 months
Estimated sensitivity of CADx (CAD for characterization is named CADx) for the diagnosis and evaluation of colonic polyp's malignancy, with histologic analysis in each center as a reference diagnosis.
Day0, 36 months
Estimation of the specificity of CADx
Time Frame: DAY 0, 36 months
