Colon polyp tissue storage study
Part of Digestive system clinical trials.
This study collects removed colon polyps to create a tissue bank for future research. It may help scientists better understand polyps and improve treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a colonoscopy to remove one or more polyps.
- Polyps must be smaller than 25 millimeters (about 1 inch).
- You cannot take blood thinners like aspirin or warfarin for at least 7 days before the procedure.
- You do not have a diagnosis of colorectal cancer, inflammatory bowel disease, or a polyposis syndrome.
- You must agree to sign a consent form and have the polyp sample stored for research.

This study looks at people who had certain types of colon polyps (called serrated polyps) removed. It tries to see if these polyps are linked to new or more advanced polyps or cancer in the future, so you might get more tailored follow-up care.
This study tests two different colonoscopy techniques to see which one finds more pre-cancerous polyps called serrated lesions. It may help your doctor choose the best way to screen for colon cancer during your procedure.
This study follows people who have serrated polyps in the colon to learn more about these growths. It may help doctors better understand what they are and how to manage them.
This trial collects video and images of colorectal polyps during a standard colonoscopy. It helps doctors learn more about polyps 10 mm or larger, which may be more likely to be cancerous.
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.
This study collects information from people who have had a malignant polyp removed from the colon. It helps doctors learn more about this early stage of colorectal cancer and may help guide future care.
