Comparing two ways to remove large colon polyps
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial is for people with large (20-60 mm), non-cancerous colon growths on a wide base. It compares two endoscopic removal methods—ESD and EMR—to see which works best.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a non-cancerous colon growth that is 20-60 mm in size and on a wide base
- You are 18 years or older
- You agree to have the growth removed by one of the two methods studied (ESD or EMR)
- You do not have more than one large growth of this type
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn's or ulcerative colitis)
- You are not on blood thinners that cannot be temporarily stopped

This trial compares two techniques (cold vs. hot loop snare) to remove medium-sized, non-cancerous colon polyps. It aims to find which method is safer and more effective for polyps that are 10–14 mm and flat or slightly raised.
This study follows patients who have a polyp removed from their colon or rectum using a minimally invasive procedure called EMR or ESD. It helps doctors learn which method works better for different types of polyps, so they can improve future care.
This trial tests two methods for removing large, flat polyps from the colon to see which works better. It uses a cold snare (a wire loop that doesn't use heat) with or without an extra fluid lift to make removal safer and more effective.
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.
This study tests a new way to remove large colon polyps to lower the chance they come back. It may help people who need a standard procedure called EMR to remove a large polyp.
This study compares two safe methods for removing small, non-cancerous colon growths called sessile serrated lesions. It aims to see which method is more effective and has fewer complications.
