About this trial

The present study aims to compare effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of the miRFec test with respect to fecal immunochemical test (FIT) for the detection of advanced colorectal neoplasm among individuals participating in colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, surveillance and diagnosis.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Male or female aged 50 to 75 (average-risk) referred to colonoscopy-based CRC screening.

Male or female aged 30 to 80 with family history of CRC (moderate-risk) referred to colonoscopy-based CRC screening.

Male and female aged 18 or older with personal history of colorectal polyps referred to colonoscopy surveillance.

Male and female aged 18 or older with personal history of CRC referred to colonoscopy surveillance.

Disqualifiers

Lack of informed consent to participate

Personal history of Lynch syndrome

Personal history of adenomatous or hamartomatous polyposis

Personal history of serrated polyposis syndrome

Trial design

Design model

Treatments tested in this trial

  • miRFec test

    Diagnostic test

    The miRFec test actually corresponds to the combination of fecal hemoglobin concentration (ie. FIT) and fecal miRNA expression
