Study Arms (1)
Individuals eligible for CRC Screening
Individuals who are 40 years of age and older, eligible for CRC screening, and scheduled for a screening colonoscopy.
Interventions
Stool samples will be collected by the subject for the mt-sDNA screening test.
Stool samples will be collected by the subject for the FIT test.
Subjects will undergo a screening colonoscopy.
Eligibility Criteria
Subjects 40 years of age and older who are eligible for CRC screening and scheduled for a screening colonoscopy. 24,000 subjects are targeted to enroll.
You may qualify if:
- Subjects must meet the following criteria to be eligible for the study:
- Subject is ≥ 40 years of age at the time of enrollment.
- Subject presents for a screening colonoscopy per standard of care.
- Subject has no symptoms or signs that require immediate, or near term, referral for diagnostic or therapeutic colonoscopy.
- Subject is able and willing to sign informed consent
You may not qualify if:
- Subject has a history of CRC or advanced precancerous lesions.
- Subject has a diagnosis or medical / family history of any of the following conditions, including:
- Familial adenomatous polyposis (also referred to as "FAP", including attenuated FAP and Gardner's syndrome),
- Hereditary non-polyposis CRC syndrome (also referred to as "HNPCC" or "Lynch Syndrome"),
- Other hereditary cancer syndromes including but are not limited to Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, MYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP), Turcot's (or Crail's) Syndrome, Cowden's Syndrome, Juvenile Polyposis, Neurofibromatosis, or Familial Hyperplastic Polyposis.
- Subject has a diagnosis or personal history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including chronic ulcerative colitis and/or Crohn's disease.
- Subject has a diagnosis of Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome.
- Subject has had a positive Cologuard within the previous 2 years, or fecal occult blood test or FIT within the previous 6 months.
- Subject has undergone a colonoscopy within the previous 9 years with the exception of a failed colonoscopy due to poor bowel preparation. Failed colonoscopy must have been within the past year and without therapeutic intervention.
- Subject has had overt rectal bleeding within the previous 30 days.
