Colorectal cancer screening marker study
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This study looks for markers in stool and saliva that might indicate the presence of precancerous growths in the colon. If you are scheduled for a colonoscopy, you may be able to participate by providing samples beforehand.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be 18 years or older
- Have a colonoscopy scheduled (with bowel prep)
- Be able to provide stool and saliva samples before the colonoscopy
- Have no stoma
- Have no personal history of colorectal cancer

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study is testing a new stool-based screening test for colorectal cancer. You provide a stool sample before having a colonoscopy, and researchers compare the test results with what the colonoscopy finds.
This study tests a new stool-based test for detecting colorectal cancer and advanced polyps. It aims to see how well it works compared to a colonoscopy. The results may lead to a simpler screening option.
This study is looking at whether routine lab tests can help find colorectal adenomas (non-cancerous polyps in the colon) earlier. If you are having a colonoscopy and are found to have such a polyp, you may join to help improve early detection.
This study looks at special tiny cell-signal particles (called exosomes) and related pathways to understand colorectal cancer. Your results from samples may help researchers learn how these signals relate to the disease after surgery.
This study collects samples (like tissue and other body fluids) from people who are getting a colonoscopy or similar camera test. It aims to find “biomarkers,” which are measurable signals that may help doctors better understand or detect bowel problems such as colorectal cancer, polyps, or inflammatory bowel disease.
This trial tests a new stool-based screening test that may find colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas (precancerous growths) early. It studies whether the test works well compared with the standard colonoscopy, so it could offer an easier, less invasive screening option in the future.
