New tool for removing large growths in the rectum and lower colon
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This trial tests a new platform to help doctors remove large polyps or early-stage cancers from the rectum and lower colon using a scope (endoscope). The goal is to see if this tool makes the removal process safer and more effective.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are at least 18 years old.
- You have a large polyp (adenoma) or early cancer in the rectum or lower colon that is larger than 2 cm.
- You are able to give written permission to take part in the study.
- The growth is in an area reachable with a scope (not too close to the anus or too far up the colon).
- You do not have a narrowing or abnormal opening (fistula) in the anal area.

This study tests a new way to remove large or complex colon and rectal polyps using a special port system called GelPOINT Path. If you have polyps that are hard to remove with standard colonoscopy, this approach may help your doctor remove them safely.
This study looks at two different methods for removing large colon polyps to see which one better prevents polyps from coming back. It may help people who have a non-cancerous, flat polyp that is at least 20 mm wide.
This trial tests a new device to help doctors remove larger, non-cancerous polyps from the colon during a colonoscopy. It may make the procedure easier and more effective for eligible patients.
This trial tests a new robotic system to remove large, flat growths in the rectum without traditional surgery. It may help people who have early-stage rectal tumors that are too big for standard removal methods.
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.
This trial compares two special tools used to remove large, flat colon polyps during a colonoscopy. The goal is to see which tool is safer and more effective at removing the entire polyp in one piece, which may help avoid surgery.
