NCT07623902

Brief Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if the Gixam device effectively identifies persons with pre-cancer or cancer in the colon and rectum in adults aged 45-84 that are of average risk to develop colorectal cancer and have received a negative result on a Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT). The main questions it aims to answer are:

  1. 1.Is the Gixam Device effective in identifying persons with pre-cancer or cancer in the colon and rectum that have received a negative FIT result?
  2. 2.Is the use of the Gixam device safe?
  3. 3.Undergo the Gixam test
  4. 4.Take a FIT at home and ship to a laboratory.
  5. 5.Undergo a standard of care screening colonoscopy.

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Primary Safety Endpoint

    Number of device-related adverse events and serious adverse events.

    From enrollment to the end of study at 30 days after

  • Primary Efficacy Endpoints

    Sensitivity and specificity of Gixam in participants with a negative FIT result.

    Through study completion, an average of 30 days

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Confirmatory Secondary Efficacy Endpoints

    Through study completion, an average of 30 days

Study Arms (1)

Intervention arm

EXPERIMENTAL

All enrolled participants will undergo the same intervention: Gixam test, FIT, and screening colonoscopy

Device: Gixam SystemDiagnostic Test: FITProcedure: Standard of care screening colonoscopy

Interventions

All participant will undergo the Gixam test per device instructions for use

Intervention arm
FITDIAGNOSTIC_TEST

FIT kit will be handed out to the study participant, who will later sample stool at home and mail the specimen to a reference laboratory for analysis.

Intervention arm

All participants will undergo a standard of care screening colonoscopy which serves as the gold truth in this study
