Pilot study for a new colorectal cancer screening test
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tests a new stool-based test for detecting colorectal cancer and advanced polyps. It aims to see how well it works compared to a colonoscopy. The results may lead to a simpler screening option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 45 years or older for the screening group, or 18 or older if you are being evaluated for a possible colorectal cancer diagnosis.
- You must be scheduled for a screening colonoscopy (screening group) or a diagnostic colonoscopy or surgery (diagnostic group).
- You must not have had colorectal cancer, precancerous polyps, or inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn's or ulcerative colitis).
- You must not have a first-degree relative (parent, sibling, or child) with colorectal cancer.
- You must be able to provide a stool sample within 90 days before your colonoscopy.

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 looks for markers in stool (poop) to detect colorectal cancer early. If you are between 40 and 74, live in the Lisbon area, and don't have certain digestive or cancer conditions, you may help improve screening by providing a stool sample.
This trial tests a new stool-based screening test that may find colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas (precancerous growths) early. It studies whether the test works well compared with the standard colonoscopy, so it could offer an easier, less invasive screening option in the future.
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 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 testing a new stool-based screening test for colorectal cancer. You provide a stool sample before having a colonoscopy, and researchers compare the test results with what the colonoscopy finds.
