This study is evaluating PreveCol, a new second-line stool test for people aged 50–69 who had a positive FIT/FOBT result and are already scheduled for a colonoscopy. It aims to find out if this test can help detect colorectal cancer earlier.
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.
This study follows people age 40 and older to see how well colorectal cancer screening works in everyday community care. You may answer risk and follow-up questions over time, and the study looks for any cancer diagnoses that happen outside the study hospitals.
This study tests whether training doctors to better involve patients in decisions about colorectal cancer screening improves shared decision-making. If you are between 50 and 74 and due for screening, your GP might invite you to join.
This study looks at using community pharmacies to offer a simple stool test (called iFOBT) that can check for signs of colorectal cancer early. If you're in the age range and have not had recent tests, this might help you stay on top of your health.
This study is looking for people aged 45 to 54 who have not been screened for colorectal cancer (CRC) yet. It aims to understand and improve screening rates. You may be eligible if you are a patient at the health center and have no personal or family history of colorectal cancer.
