About this study

In plain language

This study aims to develop and check a test that uses stool and saliva to find polyps, or growths in the colon or rectum. It is for adults having a colonoscopy, a test that uses a camera to look inside the colon. Researchers will compare sample results with colonoscopy findings.

This study is a collaboration between Viome Life Sciences and Scripps Research Institute to develop and validate a noninvasive molecular diagnostic test for the detection of colorectal polyps. Approximately 1,000 participants undergoing colonoscopy will provide saliva and stool samples prior to their procedure. Molecular features identified in these samples will be evaluated in relation to colonoscopy findings to develop a predictive model for colorectal polyp detection. The resulting model will then be evaluated in an independent validation dataset to assess its performance for identifying individuals with colorectal polyps.

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