Diet education to lower colon cancer risk after polyp removal
Part of Cancer, Digestive system, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You had a colonoscopy where at least one polyp (adenoma) was removed.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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.
This trial tests a Traditional Chinese Medicine herbal formula (Jianpi Lishi Jiedu Granules) to see if it can prevent colorectal advanced adenomas (a precancerous polyp) from coming back after they have been removed during a colonoscopy. It is recruiting people who have had such a polyp removed and whose body has a specific TCM pattern ('Spleen Deficiency and Dampness Toxin').
This study is for Korean adults who are about to have a polyp removed from their colon during a colonoscopy. Researchers will look at genetic factors in the polyp and in normal tissue to understand what causes these growths.
This study tests whether an oral synbiotic (a probiotic plus a prebiotic) can reduce the chance that advanced colon growths come back after they were removed. It also looks at changes in stool-related bacterial “gene markers” that may signal lower risk over time.
