Evaluation of C-Scan Capsule in Identifying Subjects With Elevated Risk of Colon Polyps

NCT ID: NCT05271656

Last Updated: 2023-07-28

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED
• Clinical Phase: NA
• Total Enrollment: 23 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2022-05-10
• Study Completion Date: 2023-07-26

Brief Summary

The main objective of the study is to determine the ability of the C-Scan system to identify subjects who are at elevated risk for colon polyps. This will be evaluated by comparing the C-Scan data to colonoscopy data. The C-Scan procedure is therefore performed before the colonoscopy procedure, in order to compare these tests and evaluate the C-Scan system's effectiveness.

During the C-scan procedure, Subjects will be asked to come for an appointment in a clinic, during this appointment, the C-Scan Track will be placed on the participant's back. The participant will then be asked to swallow the C-Scan capsule whereafter they are free to continue their routine. Participants will start intake of fiber pills 5 days, and contrast agent 48 hours prior to C-Scan capsule ingestion and will continue intake up to the capsule's natural excretion.

A standard colonoscopy procedure will be performed within 60 days following C-Scan Cap ingestion.

Study Groups

C-Scan System

All study participants will undergo the C-Scan System procedure, followed by a standard of care optical colonoscopy

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

C-Scan System

Intervention Type: DEVICE

Subjects will be provided with contrast agent and dietary fiber pills, and instructed to start intake of fiber pills 5 days, and contrast agent 48 hours prior to scheduled C-Scan capsule ingestion. C-Scan system intervention includes ingestion of the C-Scan Cap and attachment of the C-Scan Track to the subject's lower back. The subject is required to keep the C-Scan Track attached to the lower back and to continue intake of contrast agent and dietary fiber pills until the C-Scan Cap's natural excretion. Standard of care optical colonoscopy will be performed within 60 days from the C-Scan Cap ingestion.

16. Nuclear imaging procedure within the four (4) weeks preceding the C-Scan procedure.

17. Known condition of opioid use disorder and/or alcoholism.

18. Women who are either pregnant or nursing at the time of screening (to be verified by urine or serum pregnancy test for woman of child- bearing potential who are not post-menopausal or undergone surgical sterilization).
