Collecting colon samples from adults with colon findings
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study collects body samples to help evaluate tests for people with suspected or newly diagnosed colorectal conditions, often around the time of colonoscopy or surgery. Depending on the arm, you may be asked to have a colonoscopy soon or to provide samples before planned surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be between 45 and 84 years old.
- You must be able to understand the study and sign the consent form.
- Arm A: You have suspected advanced colon polyps (adenoma) or newly diagnosed colorectal cancer that has not been removed yet, and you are scheduled for surgery.
- Arm B: You plan to have a standard colonoscopy within 60 days.
- You should not have certain high-risk inherited conditions or bowel diseases (like Crohn’s/ulcerative colitis, FAP, Lynch syndrome, or serrated polyposis), and no strong close-family colon cancer history as defined by the study.

This study is testing a new blood test to find colorectal cancer early. You may be able to join if you are about to have a colonoscopy or surgery for a suspected tumor.
This study checks stool samples to see how well stool tests can detect early colon cancer and precancerous growths called adenomas. If you qualify, you’ll collect stool samples for a lab test (FIT) and sometimes this helps sort who should get follow-up testing.
This study is looking for people newly diagnosed with colorectal cancer or advanced adenoma to help find better ways to detect the disease early using advanced lab tests on blood samples.
This study measures “minimal residual disease,” meaning tiny amounts of cancer that may remain after surgery, using blood samples. It may help doctors better detect who is at higher risk of cancer coming back and guide follow-up care.
This study is looking at ways to better predict how early-stage colon cancer will respond to standard treatment. It is focused on patients who will have surgery to remove the tumor and have not yet had any other cancer treatment.
This trial is testing a new way to screen for colorectal cancer in adults aged 45 to 74. If you join, you will help researchers find better methods for early detection.
