Capsule colonoscopy option increases uptake of colorectal cancer screening

ABSTRACT: Background and study aims: Colorectal cancer screening is used to detect cancer at an early stage, before symptoms start to appear. It is done because treating the disease is more successful if its caught at an early stage. Endoscopy is an effective method of exploring the bowel for signs of cancer. A thin, flexible tube with a tiny camera attached is placed into the bowel. The medical team is then able to see the inside of the bowel though images sent to a television screen. Despite its success, many people who would otherwise benefit from the procedure (i.e. people over the age of 55) are reluctant to take part due, in part, to it being thought of as unpleasant. Capsule endoscopy is a new method which is painless and involves swallowing a small pill-like video camera which travels through the bowel and takes images. It is thought that capsule endoscopy might encourage more people to undergo colorectal cancer screening. This study aims to explore whether inviting people to undertake endoscopic screening for colorectal cancer and offering the new capsule endoscopy will persuade more people to go for screening compared to those offered conventional endoscopy. Who can participate? People over the age of 55 who are insured with BKK 24 in the area of Rintein/Lower Saxonia (Germany) What does the study involve? The participants receive an invitation letter for colorectal cancer screening by either conventional or capsule endoscopy. The participants then respond if they want to undergo the procedure.

Assessing accuracy of PillCam Colon 2 in a screening setting: a prospective study in Italy

Project description:Background and study aims Colon capsule endoscopy is a new technique to look at the colon. The patient swallows a capsule that is slightly bigger than an antibiotic pill. The capsule has two small cameras that can send images of the colon to an external data-recorder where the video of the examination can be stored and examined after capsule excretion. The aim of this study is to find out how accurate a new capsule is at detecting colorectal cancer and advanced adenomas. Who can participate? People aged 55 to 69 attending an organized population screening program, who had a positive test result at the screening test (fecal occult blood test). What does the study involve? Subjects who consent to be enrolled are required to follow a specific oral bowel preparation starting 2 days before the planned appointment. In the morning of the exam day, after completing the last part of the preparation, the patients will swallow the capsule. A colonoscopy will be performed following the usual procedure after the excretion of the capsule.

Small Bowel Capsule Endoscopy: Experience From a Single Large Tertiary Care Centre

Project description:Examination of the small bowel has been considered a challenge for several anatomical (i.e. distance from external orifices, length) and physiological (i.e. active peristalsis) reasons. Conventional techniques of endoscopy are limited by length while radiologic examinations, such as barium studies, are insensitive for evaluating small bowel pathology. An ingestible miniature camera device capable of obtaining images of the whole small intestine was developed due to a need for the exploration of this "final frontier". The purpose of this article is to review and share our institution’s results using small bowel capsule endoscopy, with special reference to the existing literature.

Capsule endoscopy in the detection of small bowel neoplasias in patients with Lynch syndrome

Project description:Interventions: Capsule endoscopy will be performed according with standard method: Small bowel preparation with 2 liters of polyethylene glycol (PEG) preparation. At 5 PM on the evening prior to capsule endoscopy patients will begin drinking an 8-ounce glass of the preparation fluid (in the gallon container) every fifteen minutes until all of the liquid is consumed; Overnight fast; Capsule endoscopy (Mirocam) will be swallowed in the day of the exam and pictures will be taken for 12 h and collected in a recorder. The capsule is eliminated in the feces and does not need to be recovered. The images are read in the appropriate software by an experienced physician. Primary outcome(s): To access the prevalence of small bowel neoplasias in patients with Lynch syndrome using capsule endoscopy findings. Patients with relevant findings at capsule endoscopy- tumours or polyps, will be submitted to upper GI endoscopy or double ballon enetroscopy for histological confirmation.[At the time that capsule endoscopy is performed] Study Design: Purpose: Screening;Duration: Cross-sectional;Selection: Defined population;Timing: Prospective

Transcription profile of colon biopsies from normal (NOR) donors, patients, underwent resection for CRC (M-CRC) and patients carriers of mutations predisposed to HNPCC (HNPC)

Project description:The challenge of preventing colorectal cancer (CRC) is the early identification of individuals whose apparently normal colorectal mucosa will develop cancer, because of inherited trait or environmental exposure. We sought to use genome-wide expression profiling of endoscopic biopsies to detect a signature of propensity for cancer. We performed oligonucleotide microarray analysis of normal appearing mucosa of the following cases: healthy individuals, disease-free carriers predisposed to HNPCC (hereditary non-polyposis CRC), disease-free patients who underwent curative large bowel resection for CRC 1 to 15 years earlier and patients with CRC. This profiling is based on the analysis of 4 donors who underwent curative large bowel resection for CRC from 1 to 19 years before (M-CRC samples), 4 disease-free carriers of mutations in the mismatch repair system genes, who are predisposed to develop HNPCC (HNPCC samples) and 4 endoscopy-negative, asymptomatic individuals (NOR samples)

Development of gene expression in inflammatory bowel disease

Project description:To further development of gene expression in inflammatory bowel disease(IBD), we have employed whole genome microarray expression profiling as a discovery platform to identify genes with the potential to distinguish IBD patients and healthy volunteers. Colon biopsies were obtained from IBD patients and healthy volunteers during endoscopy. There were 353 genes that showed greater than 4-fold differential expression (285 upregulated and 68 downregulated) between IBD patients and healthy volunteers. Colon biopsies were obtained from 3 CD and age- ,sex- mathed healthy controlspatients and 3 healthy volunteers during endoscopy.

Multicentre randomised trial of ‘once only’ flexible sigmoidoscopy screening for prevention of bowel cancer morbidity and mortality

Project description:Background and study aims Bowel cancer is the fourth most commonly diagnosed cancer in the UK. Bowel cancers develop slowly from common bowel growths or polyps, so removing them can help prevent cancer. Screening with flexible sigmoidoscopy (also called ‘bowel scope’ or Flexi-scope) involves insertion of a thin flexible tube with a light and camera on the end into the bowel to examine the inner surface. Small bowel polyps can be removed during screening. The aim of the UK Flexible Sigmoidoscopy Screening Trial (UKFSST) was to determine whether having just one flexible sigmoidoscopy screen at around 60 years of age could prevent bowel cancer from developing and reduce the number of deaths from bowel cancer. The trial also aimed to determine how long any benefit lasts, and what is the best age to do the screening examination. Who can participate? Men and women who were aged 55–64 years and registered at a participating GP practice between November 1994 and March 1999. What does the study involve? The UKFSST was a randomised controlled trial. People who participated in the trial were randomly assigned to receive either flexible sigmoidoscopy screening or no screening (which was the usual care offered at the time of the trial).
