Surveillance Colonoscopy

The ULTRA-SAFE clinical trial is a prospective, randomized study designed to address the limitations of current "one-size-fits-all" colorectal cancer surveillance guidelines. While international standards recommend a three-year follow-up colonoscopy for all high-risk patients, data suggests that those with multiple advanced adenomas face a significantly higher recurrence risk (20%) compared to those with only low-risk adenomas (9%). To provide more personalized care, the trial compares a Standard Arm (colonoscopy at year three) against a FIT Arm, where participants undergo annual fecal immunochemical testing in years one and two. A positive FIT triggers an earlier colonoscopy, with the goal of reducing the 3-year prevalence of metachronous advanced colorectal neoplasms (meta-ACRN) from 20% to approximately 12.7%. The study has enrolled roughly 940 participants to statistically validate whether this early screening intervention can effectively prevent future malignant events in ultra-high-risk populations.

This is an international, multicenter, study to evaluate the diagnostic performance of the CADx polyp sizing modality of the MAGENTIQ-COLO.
