Follow-up after removal of early colon cancer by endoscopy
Part of Cancer, Digestive system clinical trials.
This study looks at what happens after early-stage colon cancer is removed using a minimally invasive scope procedure, to better understand the risk of the cancer returning or spreading. If you have had this procedure, researchers want to follow your health over time to improve future care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have been diagnosed with early-stage colorectal cancer that has not spread deeply.
- You were part of the FECCo registry (a hospital record) for submucosal dissection since September 2019.
- After the procedure, lab tests showed your cancer had high-risk features (such as deeper invasion, tumor budding, or cells in blood/lymph vessels).
- You do not have inflammatory bowel disease (like Crohn's or ulcerative colitis) or a genetic condition that predisposes you to colorectal cancer.

This study looks at people who have had colon polyps removed to see how follow-up colonoscopies help prevent future polyps or cancer. You may join if you are between 18 and 75 and have had a polyp removed at this hospital.
This study looks at how often people with large colon polyps (removed in pieces) should have follow-up colonoscopies to check for regrowth. It aims to find the best timing to keep you safe and avoid extra procedures.
This study follows patients who had early colon cancer removed by endoscopy (a camera procedure) but the removal was incomplete. Researchers will track what happens when patients either have surgery afterward or are closely watched instead, to understand the best next steps.
This study follows patients who are having surgery to remove a specific type of flat colon growth. It aims to see how safe and effective a “selective” approach is, based on what the growth looks like and your situation.
This trial compares a newer, less invasive endoscopic procedure with standard surgery for people who have a small, early-stage colon cancer. The goal is to see if the endoscopic treatment is as effective as surgery while being gentler on the body.
This study follows people who have finished treatment for stage II (high-risk) or stage III colorectal cancer and are now cancer-free. Researchers want to learn more about which factors might predict if the cancer will come back, so they can better personalize follow-up care.
