The Fecal Immunoassay Occult Blood Test Combined With Calprotectin Sequential Linkage Imaging Endoscopy Screening Strategy for Monitoring Tumor Changes Associated With Long-duration Ulcerative Colitis (DETECT-UCAN)
Diagnostic Performance of Fecal Immunochemical Test Combined With Fecal Calprotectin Sequential Linked Color Imaging Endoscopy for Surveillance of Colitis-Associated Neoplasia in Long-standing Ulcerative Colitis: A Multicenter, Prospective Cohort Study
Ulcerative colitis (UC) is a chronic inflammatory bowel disease associated with an increased risk of colorectal cancer, known as UC-associated neoplasia (UCAN). Current guidelines recommend regular colonoscopy surveillance for long-standing UC patients, but this strategy faces challenges including poor adherence and low neoplasia detection rates. This study aims to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a non-invasive pre-screening strategy combining fecal immunochemical test (FIT) and fecal calprotectin (FC), followed by linked color imaging (LCI) colonoscopy, for detecting UCAN in patients with long-standing UC.
This is a multicenter, prospective, diagnostic cohort study. Eligible patients with long-standing UC (disease duration >8 years for extensive colitis or >10 years for left-sided colitis, or with PSC) will undergo FIT and FC testing, followed by LCI colonoscopy within 4 weeks regardless of stool test results. The primary outcome is the diagnostic performance (sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV) of combined FIT+FC testing for UCAN, using LCI colonoscopy with histopathology as the reference standard. A total of 250 participants will be enrolled from 6 centers in China. Secondary outcomes include UCAN detection rate, feasibility indicators, patient adherence and acceptability, optimal cut-off values for FIT and FC, and 12-month miss rate.

Long-standing Ulcerative Colitis High-risk Cohort
Participants with long-standing UC meeting high-risk criteria (disease duration >8/10 years, PSC, family history, or prior neoplasia).
All participants undergo a unified surveillance protocol: baseline data collection → fecal sample collection for FIT and FC testing → LCI colonoscopy within 4 weeks regardless of stool test results.
