Colorectal Polyp Follow-up Study
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study tracks patients who had precancerous polyps (adenomas) removed from their colon to understand how often they come back and what factors affect recurrence. Your participation helps doctors improve screening and prevention strategies.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- You can provide written consent and are willing to attend follow-up colonoscopies
- You had at least one follow-up colonoscopy at this hospital between 1 and 5 years after your polyp was removed
- You do not have a history of colorectal cancer
- You do not have severe heart, liver, or kidney disease

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial compares using a simple stool test (FIT) versus a repeat colonoscopy to check for new polyps in people who have already had an advanced adenoma removed. It aims to see if the stool test is a safe and effective alternative for routine follow-up.
This trial tests whether a stool blood test can help decide who truly needs a follow-up colonoscopy after prior colon polyps. It may reduce unnecessary colonoscopies while still catching concerning changes early.
This trial compares a new, more frequent surveillance schedule (yearly stool tests and colonoscopies every 2 years) to the standard schedule for people who have had advanced polyps removed. It aims to see if the extra testing helps prevent future colon cancer.
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.
This study follows people who have had colorectal adenomas (precancerous polyps) removed to understand why some come back. It uses advanced tests on blood and tissue samples to find clues that could help prevent 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.
