Predicting polyp return after removal
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study aims to develop a tool using gut bacteria and metabolites to predict if high-risk colon polyps will come back after removal. If you are between 40 and 75 and have had certain types of colon polyps removed, you may be able to help us build better prediction methods.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 40 and 75 years old
- You have had a colonoscopy that found at least 1 advanced premalignant polyp or 3 or more adenomas (a type of polyp)
- You have not had surgery on your gastrointestinal tract (stomach or intestines)
- You do not have colorectal cancer or any other active cancer
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease or certain genetic polyp syndromes

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study follows people who have had stomach or intestinal polyps removed during an endoscopy to see how often new polyps grow back. It helps doctors learn better ways to monitor and prevent recurrence.
This trial tests whether taking a probiotic called Clostridium Butyricum after colon polyp removal can lower the chance of polyps coming back. It is looking for people who had adenomas removed and are not already taking certain supplements or antibiotics.
This study tests whether taking capsules of healthy bacteria (fecal microbiota transplant) can help prevent colon polyps from coming back after they have been removed. It might be an option for people who have had an adenoma polyp removed and want to reduce the chance of recurrence.
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 study checks how well two lab tests (M3 and FIT) can predict whether advanced colon polyps (adenomas) will come back. If you’ve had adenomas found on a prior colonoscopy, these results may help plan future surveillance.
This study tests a dietary supplement called CBM588 to see if it helps prevent new colorectal polyps from coming back. You may be eligible if you have had polyps removed before and recently found new ones.
