Hybrid-ESD+, Endoscopic Resection
Brief summary
This study examines whether the use of Hybrid-ESD+ with LiftUp (Injection solution) results in a higher en bloc and/or R0 rate for non pedunculated colorectal adenomas between 2 and 3 cm than described in the literature for conventional EMR.
Detailed description
There are several options for endoscopic polypectomy of polyps between 2-3 cm, all of which have their advantages and disadvantages and none of which has yet become the established standard procedure. Conventional EMR has the disadvantage of more frequent residuals and/or recurrences due to lack of en bloc resection, while ESD has the disadvantage of being more complex and complications more likely. A possible alternative is the use of hybrid ESD+ with LiftUp subcutaneous injection. The method with the LiftUp gel forming a stable gel cushion under the lesion, in combination with the circular circumcision of the mucosa at this site and the AWC for the current loop and the grasper, could achieve a better en bloc resection rate with a low complication rate than other procedures mentioned above. The higher effectiveness in terms of recurrences and complications could subsequently result in a reduction of endoscopic or surgical re-interventions. In this study, non-pedunculated colorectal polyps between 2 and 3cm in size are resected using ESD+ method and lift up as an injection solution. Methodological and clinical parameters are recorded. After 4 weeks, the patients are contacted by telephone to record possible late effects. If an endoscopic control is performed after 6 months (according to the guideline or according to the investigator), the findings are also recorded.
Interventions
PROCEDUREHybrid ESD+
Injection of the Lift Up solution, followed by circumcision of the lesion using a snare tip or ESD knife. Using an additional working channel (AWC), the lesion is resected using a grasper and snare.

Inclusion criteria
* Non-pedunculated lesion in the colorectum (epithelial lesion, 2-3 cm). * Ablation medically indicated and possible (coagulation, etc. - as determined by the center)
Exclusion criteria
* Age \< 18 years * Pedunculated lesion (Paris0-Ip) * Size of the lesion \<2cm or \>3cm * Pregnant and breastfeeding women * Patient not capable of informed consent / consent not possible * Bioptic evidence of a carcinoma / high probability of the presence of a carcinoma * Non-lifting sign / known recurrence after previous therapy * Impassable stenosis in the colon / rectum * Patients with compelling need for therapeutic anticoagulation or dual antiplatelet therapy that cannot be discontinued for resection * As per contraindications from the AWC & LiftUp Instructions for Use: * The AWC is not to be used if flexible-endoscopic procedures are contraindicated. * The LiftUp gel should not be used when flexible endoscopic procedures are contraindicated, especially in combination with submucosal endoscopic resection (EMR) or endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) injectables. * LiftUp gel should not be used in patients with known sensitivity to any of the ingredients.
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| R0 resection rate of non pedunculated colorectal polyps between 2 and 3cm using hybrid ESD+ | after 14 days | In how many cases a complete R0 resection (basal and lateral margin) is found on pathologic examination |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Recurrence rate | 6 months | Rate of adenoma residue and/or adenoma recurrence in percent after 6 months. This is determined by the colonoscopic and histologic findings from 2 biopsies from the scar or resection specimen. |
| Procedural parameters - Intervention duration | 1 day | Intervention duration (time range from injection to complete resection) |
| Procedural parameters - Cleanliness of the colon | 1 day | Cleanliness of the colon (according to the Boston Bowel Preparation Scale (BBPS) 0-9) |
| Localization of polyp | 1 day | Position of the polyp within the colon (Coecum, Ascendens, Transversum, Deschendens, Sigmoid, Rectum) |
| Complication rate (perforations, bleeding) | up to 4 weeks | Perforation: dehiscence of the muscularis propria diagnosed during or after resection. Hemorrhage: * Clinically significant post-endoscopic bleeding (CSPEB). Bleeding from the ablation site with hematochezia after completion of index colonoscopy * Intraprocedural bleeding (IPB). Percent, defined as bleeding lasting \> 60 seconds during intervention necessitating therapy |
| Polyp morphology | 1 day | according to paris classification |
| Polyp histology | 7 days | histological examination (tubular, tubulovillous, villous) |
| Duration of hospital stay | up to 4 weeks | Time frame from first day to discharge |
| Polyp size | 1 day | Polyp diameter in mm |
