Evaluating the Effectiveness of a Colonoscopy Surveillance Recommendations Algorithm in Clinical Practice

June 16, 2026 updated by: NYU Langone Health
The primary objective is to determine if the use of the colonoscopy surveillance recommendations algorithm increases the accuracy of surveillance timing recommendations compared to traditional methods. The secondary objective is to assess the time required to make surveillance recommendations with and without the algorithm, determine the efficiency gains (the average time saved per recommendation), and evaluate the opportunity cost (the financial value of the time saved).

Plan for Individual participant data (IPD)

Plan to Share Individual Participant Data (IPD)?

YES

IPD Plan Description

The de-identified participant data from the final research dataset will be shared upon reasonable request beginning 9 to 36 months after publication or as required by a condition of awards or supporting agreements, provided the requesting investigator executes a data use agreement with NYU Langone Health. This instance of data sharing will also require separate IRB review as well as review from NYU Langone's Data Sharing Strategy Board (DSSB). Requests should be directed to: Renee.Williams@nyulangone.org. The protocol and statistical analysis plan will be posted on Clinicaltrials.gov only as required by federal regulation or supporting awards and agreements.

IPD Sharing Time Frame

Beginning 9 months and ending 36 months following article publication or as required by a condition of awards and agreements supporting the research.

IPD Sharing Access Criteria

The investigator who proposed to use the data will be granted access upon reasonable request and to achieve aims in the approved proposal. Requests should be directed to Renee.Williams@nyulangone.org. To gain access, data requestors will need to sign a data access agreement. This instance of data sharing will also require separate IRB review as well as review from NYU Langone's DSSB.
