January 10, 2013 updated by: Yonsei University

Efficacy and Cost-effectiveness of Colonoscopy vs. Combined Fecal Immunochemical Test-Sigmoidoscopy for the Detection of Advanced Colorectal Neoplasia (eCOLO-FITS): A Randomized Multicenter Trial

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of fecal immunochemical test combined with sigmoidoscopy (FITS) for the detection of advanced colorectal neoplasia compared to colonoscopy.

Study Overview

Conditions

Detailed Description

The investigators will evaluate the efficacy of FITS for the detection of advanced colorectal neoplasia compared to colonoscopy. This study was designed as multicenter randomized interventional study. The expected period are 36months. A total 13 tertiary hospitals will participate in the study.

Subjects will be randomly allocated to FITS group and colonoscopy group. Subjects who undergo FITS will be performed by following colonoscopy to confirm the efficacy of FITS. In colonoscopy group, subjects as a control group would be performed colonoscopy.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: FIT-Sigmoidoscopy
This arm (FIT-Sigmoidoscopy) will take fecal immunochemical test (FIT) followed by sigmoidoscopy for evaluation of advanced colorectal adenoma detection rate. Immediately after sigmoidoscopy, a total colonoscopy will be performed as a standard method for advanced colorectal adenoma detection.

Other Names:
  • sigmoidoscopy
  • FITS
Experimental: Colonoscopy
This arm (Colonoscopy) will take a total colonoscopy as a control group that will represent the efficacy of colonoscopy for advanced colorectal adenoma detection rate.
