  • Participants are monitored closely by the research team throughout the study.
  • Some participants may receive access to an investigational treatment, which is still being studied.
  • Your participation helps researchers learn whether this approach could help future patients.

About this study

In plain language

This study checks how accurate the ColoSense test is. It is mainly for adults age 45 and older who can give a stool sample and then have a colonoscopy, an exam of the colon.

The post-approval study (PAS) described here will supplement existing data generated in the CRC-PREVENT clinical trial. The primary outcomes of this supplemental study will include: clinical sensitivity, clinical specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of ColoSense.

Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.

Eligibility

Who can join

  • You are age 45 or older. Adults ages 18–45 may also join, but their results will not count in the main study analysis.
  • You can understand the study, agree to take part, and give permission to share your relevant medical records.
  • You can and will give a stool sample within 120 days before your colonoscopy.
  • You can and will have a colonoscopy after giving the stool sample.

Who can't join

  • Your most recent colonoscopy found changes that could turn into cancer. Benign or hyperplastic polyps, types of noncancerous growths, do not count.
  • You have or have had cancer of the colon or rectum, or cancer in the passages used for breathing or moving food.
  • You had a positive stool blood test (FOBT or FIT) in the past 12 months, or a positive FIT-DNA stool test in the past 36 months.
  • You had a colonoscopy in the past 9 years.
  • You had surgery to remove part of your colon or rectum, unless it was for sigmoid diverticular disease—a problem with small pouches in the lower colon.
  • Your colonoscopy is being done because of visible rectal bleeding in the past 30 days, such as bloody or black stools. Blood only on toilet paper after wiping does not count.
  • You have or have had inflammatory bowel disease, including ulcerative colitis or Crohn’s disease, which cause swelling in the gut.
  • You have or have had a listed high-risk condition: FAP, Lynch syndrome, Peutz-Jeghers, MYH-associated polyposis, Gardner’s, Turcot’s (Crail’s), Cowden’s, juvenile polyposis, Cronkhite-Canada, neurofibromatosis, familial hyperplastic polyposis, or another inherited cancer syndrome.
