Genetic factors of colon polyps in Korean adults
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 19 to 85 years old.
- You are having a colonoscopy to remove a colorectal polyp (also called an adenoma).
- You have never had colorectal cancer, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or a genetic condition like FAP or Lynch syndrome.
- You have not had any surgery on your colon before.
- Your doctor can get a good enough tissue sample from the polyp for the study.

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 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 study looks at whether routine lab tests can help find colon polyps (growths that can turn into cancer) early. It may help doctors diagnose polyps more quickly and simply.
This study looks at how genetic risk information can help decide who needs colorectal cancer screening and when. Researchers want to see if testing for genetic risk factors improves screening decisions for people who haven't had a colonoscopy before.
This study looks at patterns of colorectal (colon and rectum) findings in people who are having a colonoscopy as part of routine care. It may help improve how doctors detect and understand colorectal cancer and related growths over time.
This study looks at whether polyps come back after they are removed during a routine stomach or colon scope. It may help doctors understand how often polyps return and who needs closer follow-up.
