About this trial
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of a personalized surveillance and intervention protocol for duodenal and gastric polyposis in patients with familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP)
Eligibility criteria
This trial does not accept healthy volunteersQualifiers
Diagnosis of FAP, at least one of following: genetic diagnosis (proven APC germline mutation) and/or clinical diagnosis (>100 colorectal adenomas in combination with a positive family history of FAP)
Age 18 years or older
Disqualifiers
Endoscopic removal of all polyps with an indication for removal not possible/feasible
Gastric or duodenal cancer at baseline endoscopy
Need for surgery
Trial population
Patients with FAP treated at one of the participating centers will be assessed for eligibility.
Trial design
Cohort
Prospective
Treatments tested in this trial
Personalized surveillance and intervention protocol
Procedure/SurgeryThis study uses one arm. Participants will undergo endoscopic surveillance with intervals between 3-6 months and 5 years, depending on severity of polyposis and performed endoscopic interventions.
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Advanced neoplasia
Incidence of advanced neoplasia defined as adenomas ≥15mm, high grade dysplasia (HGD) and/or duodenal/ampullary cancer
Secondary outcomes
Recurrences after different endoscopic intervention techniques
Incidence of recurrences after endoscopic interventions after en bloc/piecemeal resection and different techniques such as cold snare polypectomy or endoscopic mucosal resection with or without lifting
Feasibility of endoscopic interventions
Incidence of lesions not amenable to endoscopic removal
Accuracy optical diagnosis
The ability of endoscopists to optically diagnose duodenal and gastric lesions. Sensitivity and specificity for optically diagnose high-grade dysplasia in the stomach and duodenum.
Complications
Incidence of endoscopy related complications
