Early feeding after colorectal polyp removal
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial compares starting to eat right after a colon polyp removal procedure versus waiting a few hours. It may help you resume normal eating sooner after the procedure.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a large colon polyp or early colorectal cancer removed through a scope
- The polyp is at least 2 cm in size or is a certain type of early cancer without ulcers
- You do not have active inflammatory bowel disease or a bleeding disorder
- Your blood clotting time is not too high, even with treatment
- You are not pregnant

This trial compares two different ways of starting to eat after emergency bowel surgery: one group begins eating earlier than usual, and the other follows the standard timing. The goal is to see which approach helps you recover faster with fewer problems.
This study looks at the best time to start eating again after small bowel surgery. Patients are placed into groups that start feeding earlier or later, to see which helps recovery better.
This study compares having a follow-up colonoscopy sooner (6 months) versus later (18 months) after a large, flat polyp was removed in pieces. It aims to see if delaying the follow-up is still safe and effective.
This trial compares surgery versus an endoscopic procedure for people who had a colon polyp removed but some cancer cells may still be present at the edges. The goal is to see which approach leads to better outcomes and fewer side effects for early-stage colon cancer.
This study tests whether a diet education program can change the balance of gut bacteria and bile acids to lower the risk of colorectal cancer in people who have had polyps removed.
This trial compares two ways to remove large, flat polyps (granular type) from the colon or rectum: one that removes the polyp in one piece (endoscopic submucosal dissection) and one that removes it in pieces (endoscopic mucosal resection). The goal is to see which method has a lower chance of the polyp coming back.
