Scientific titleThe B-ADENOMA Study: Bowel Scope - Accuracy of Detection using ENdocuff Optimisation of Mucosal Abnormalities
Study acronymB-ADENOMA
Study objectivesThe aim of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of using Endocuff Vision in detecting colonic adenomas (polyps in the bowel which may progress to bowel cancer), making sure the procedure is the same or better than the current procedure in all other aspects.
Ethics approval(s)West Midlands Research Ethics Committee - Solihull, 20/01/2017, ref: 16/WM/0514
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studiedSpecialty: Gastroenterology, Primary sub-specialty: Gastroenterology; UKCRC code/ Disease: Cancer/ Malignant neoplasms of digestive organs, Oral and Gastrointestinal/ Other diseases of the digestive system
InterventionParticipants undergo a endoscopy as per usual practice. Participants are randomly allocated to one of the groups using randomisation software, stratifying for age group and gender.

Treatment arm: Participants in this arm have the Endocuff Vision mounted on the endoscope for the one-off flexible sigmoidoscopy.

Control arm: The one-off flexible sigmoidoscopy is completed as normal, without the Endocuff Vision on the scope.

Participants are followed up for 14 days after the test test to ensure there are no adverse events.
Intervention typeOther
Primary outcome measureAdenoma detection rate (ADR) is measured by histological examination of polyps, recorded 14 days after the procedure
Secondary outcome measures1. Mean adenomas detected per procedure are measured by histological examination of polyps, at 14 days after the procedure
2. Rate of cuff exchange (that is, how often the cuff has to be removed) at the time of the procedure
3. Complete withdrawal time in procedures where no polyps are detected, measured using withdrawal times at the time of the procedure
4. Overall procedure time is measured at time of procedure
5. ADR accounting for patient procedure based variables (e.g. accounting for extent of examination and bowel preparation), recorded at the time of the procedure
6. Rate of discovered cancers is measured by histological examination of biopsies/polyps, recorded up to 14 days after the procedure
7. Examination extent is measured using anatomical assessment of and distance (in centimetres) of intubation at the time of the procedure
8. Patient satisfaction is measured using the modified Gloucester scale of assessment of patient comfort at day of procedure and 24 hours after
9. Differences in future colonoscopic workload produced by increased ADR is measured using the change in the number of patients referred for full colonoscopy at day of the procedure
10. Changes in ADR to assess any learning curve effect is measured using primary outcome data for the first and last 20% of cases per individual colonoscopist after recruitment has completed
11. ADR of each colonoscopist prior to trial recruitment compared with their individual ADR in patients where EndocuffTM Vision was not used is measured using data from the Bowel Cancer Screening programme collected pre-trial and after the trial has completed recruitment from primary outcome data
