Colorectal Neoplasm, Colorectal Cancer, Adenomatous Polyps, Adenoma, Advanced Adenoma, Serrated Polyp
Conditions
Brief summary
The primary objective is to determine sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of a bi-target stool DNA testing (the methylation status of SDC2 and SFRP2) for colorectal cancer and advanced precancerous neoplasm(including advanced adenoma and advanced serrated lesions) screening, using colonoscopy as the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by histopathologic examination. The secondary objective is to compare the performance of the bi-target stool DNA testing to a commercially available fecal immunochemical test (FIT) assay, both with respect to cancer and advanced precancerous neoplasm. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by colonoscopy and histopathologic examination.
Detailed description
This study is a multi-center diagnostic test led by the National Clinical Research Center for Digestive Disease (Shanghai) (Department of Gastroenterology, Changhai Hospital, Navy/Second Military Medical University), which is conducted at about 30 digestive endoscopy centers nationwide in China, with the expectation of including approximately 4,800 patients. Subjects willing to conduct colonoscopy examination will be asked to collect stool sample prior to bowl preparation for stool DNA test and commercially available FIT assay. The basic characteristics of subjects, bowel preparation method and quality, and related information of colonoscopy are recorded in detail. Colonoscopy and histopathologic examination are used as reference.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of bi-target stool DNA testing (the methylation status of SDC2 and SFRP2) with comparison to colonoscopy, both with respect to cancer and advanced precancerous neoplasm. | Through study completion, an average of 1 year | A diagnostic colonoscopy procedure is the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by histopathologic examination. Advanced precancerous neoplasm includes both advanced adenoma and advanced serrated lesions. The DNA test includes the methylation status of SDC2 and SFRP2. The tests were processed independently of colonoscopy procedure. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| To compare the performance of the bi-target stool DNA testing to a commercially available FIT assay, both with respect to cancer and advanced precancerous neoplasm. | Through study completion, an average of 1 year | A diagnostic colonoscopy procedure is the reference method. Lesions will be confirmed as malignant or precancerous by histopathologic examination. The stool DNA and FIT test were performed on the same stool sample. |
