Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of this randomized clinical trial is to learn if a combination of hot and cold EMR technique is associated with a lower risk of polyp recurrence without increasing the risk of complication when removing large polyps.

Participants will undergo EMR and return for a follow-up endoscopy in 3-6 months to check for polyp recurrence.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Cold EMR

Control group patients that receive standard cold EMR treatment.

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

Cold EMR

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Cold EMR with cold forceps (regular or jumbo forceps) removal of any visible neoplasia that cannot be ensnared.

Hybrid cold EMR

Intervention group patients. Patients will receive hybrid EMR treatment.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Hybrid EMR

Intervention Type PROCEDURE

Cold EMR with hot avulsion of any visible residual neoplasia within the resection bed, in addition to precise APC of the fibrotic bands that may harbor invisible neoplasia within the resection bed.
