Serrated polyps and risk of future colon polyps
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at people who had a certain type of colon polyp (serrated polyp) to see if they are more likely to develop new or advanced polyps later. If you had one of these polyps removed and have regular follow-ups, you might help researchers understand how to better prevent colon cancer.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- During your first colonoscopy, doctors found a serrated polyp (a specific type of growth) that was confirmed as a traditional serrated adenoma (TSA) or sessile serrated lesion (SSL).
- That polyp was completely removed during the colonoscopy.
- You have had at least one follow-up colonoscopy at Changhai Hospital, 6 months or more after the first one.

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 tests a new device that prepares flat polyps removed during colonoscopy to help doctors better identify if they are precancerous. If you're having a colonoscopy with polyp removal, this trial may help improve how your polyp sample is analyzed.
This study compares two methods for removing larger polyps (flat growths) found during a colonoscopy. It tests if one technique works as well or better than the other for people with certain types of polyps.
This trial compares whether a follow-up colonoscopy at 6 or 12 months is better for people who have had a large polyp (20-50 mm) removed. It will help doctors understand the best timing for surveillance.
This trial tests whether a computer-aided detection (AI) system helps doctors find more small growths (polyps) in the colon during a colonoscopy. This could lead to better prevention of colorectal cancer.
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.
