Improving colorectal cancer screening and diagnosis
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study collects data to improve how colorectal cancer is found and diagnosed. It compares new testing methods (like breath and stool tests) with standard colonoscopy in people with and without cancer or risk factors.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older (or 40+ if you are generally healthy with no risk factors).
- You are willing to have a stool test, colonoscopy, and possibly a tissue biopsy.
- You have health insurance that covers the required tests.
- You have not had any type of cancer in the past (if you are in a control group).
- You can provide informed consent and follow the study procedures.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at patterns of colorectal (colon and rectum) findings in people who are having a colonoscopy as part of routine care. It may help improve how doctors detect and understand colorectal cancer and related growths over time.
This study looks at whether a simple blood test can help guide the care of people being evaluated for colorectal cancer. It may support earlier or clearer decision-making alongside existing screening or colonoscopy results.
This study aims to improve early diagnosis and track recurrence of colorectal cancer. It involves different groups of people, including those with colorectal cancer, those with benign bowel conditions, and healthy volunteers, to develop better prediction tools.
This study tests a breath analysis (a sample you give by breathing into a device) to help detect or better understand colorectal cancer. It may help researchers see whether breath results can identify cancer sooner and in people who haven’t started treatment yet.
This study tests whether education plus a stool-based screening kit can increase colorectal cancer screening rates in primary care settings. If you join, you may receive educational materials and a stool test to help detect colon cancer early.
This study is looking at whether adding a blood test can make the current stool-based screening for colorectal cancer more accurate. It may help find cancers earlier or reduce the need for colonoscopy.
