Test a capsule that checks the colon when colonoscopy isn’t finished
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests whether a swallowable camera capsule can safely check the colon and find possible tumor-related issues when a standard colonoscopy can’t be completed. It may help people who can’t or don’t want another colonoscopy right away.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had an incomplete colonoscopy, or were sent for a colonoscopy with general anesthesia, or you chose not to do colonoscopy after bowel prep.
- You already completed the bowel preparation needed to clear your colon for a camera check.
- You do not have active Crohn’s disease symptoms related to narrowing (stenosis) in the colon.
- You do not have a pacemaker.
- Your doctors think it’s reasonable to use the capsule camera instead of (or before) another colonoscopy.

This trial tests a camera pill (capsule endoscopy) as an alternative to a regular colonoscopy for people with colon or rectum symptoms. It's a simpler way to look inside your large intestine without a tube.
This trial tests whether a camera capsule can detect problems in the large intestine when certain gut bacteria are found in the blood. If you have one of these bacteria and are stable enough for the exam, it might help identify the source of the infection.
This study is testing a pill-sized camera (capsule colonoscopy) to see if it works well for monitoring people with Lynch syndrome, a condition that raises the risk of colon cancer. It might be an alternative to standard colonoscopy.
This trial tests a new capsule that you swallow to take pictures of your colon. It may help find polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) as well as a standard colonoscopy does.
This trial compares a magnetic capsule you swallow (like a high-tech pill with a camera) to a standard endoscopy for checking the stomach after surgery. It is designed for patients over 65 or those with conditions like heart or lung disease who may need a less invasive option.
This trial studies whether a swallowable camera capsule can detect bleeding in the small intestine when standard scopes (up the stomach and through the colon) haven’t found the cause. If your bleeding source is suspected but not seen on those tests, this could help identify where the bleeding is coming from.
