Stool test for follow-up after colorectal cancer treatment
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is testing whether a simple stool test (FIT) can replace some follow-up colonoscopies or CT scans for people who have been treated for colorectal cancer. If you are due for a routine check-up after your cancer surgery, you may be able to take this test at home instead of having a more invasive procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study is checking if a simple stool test (FIT) can help find colorectal cancer earlier in Vietnamese people who have belly symptoms. If you are between 40 and 75, have never had a colonoscopy, and are not on certain medications, you may be able to join.
This trial compares two home colon cancer screening tests, Cologuard and FIT, mailed directly to you. It aims to see which one helps more people complete screening and find the test that works best for you.
This study looks at how well a special FIT test predicts colorectal cancer risk during routine screening. If you have a positive FIT test and are waiting for a colonoscopy, you may be able to join.
This study tests a fecal immunochemical test (FIT) to find colorectal cancer or precancerous growths. It aims to see if a simple stool sample can help detect problems early.
This study tests if a stool microbiome test can help find colorectal cancer early in people who already had a positive FIT screening test. You would give a stool sample and your microbiome results will be compared to what the colonoscopy finds.
This study tests whether a stool sample can help detect early signs of cancers in the stomach, colon, and related organs. Researchers will compare stool test results with findings from standard camera procedures to see if this non-invasive approach might catch cancer earlier.
