Who can take part
AI summary
From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.
The trial is looking for adults aged 18 to 75 who have had ulcerative colitis for at least six months and are having an endoscopy to check disease activity or for cancer surveillance.
- Age
- 18 to 75 years
- Sex
- All sexes can join.
- Disease stage
- Ulcerative colitis (UC) diagnosed at least six months ago, whatever the current treatment.
- Earlier treatment
- No specific treatment is required. Anyone in a recent experimental trial must have finished it at least thirty days before this study.
Main reasons for not taking part
- Cannot have endoscopy or biopsies safely (for example toxic megacolon, severe coagulopathy or thrombocytopenia)
- Poor bowel preparation (total BBPS <6, or BBPS <2 in the segment seen for sigmoidoscopy)
- Other serious illness that limits life expectancy or makes endoscopy high risk
- Pregnant or breast-feeding
- Unable to give informed consent
The registry criteria, word for word
Show all 9 criteriaShow less
Who can take part
- Adult patients aged 18 to 75 years old
- Established diagnosis of UC (for at least six months in duration), independently from their active treatment
- Undergoing endoscopy for disease activity assessment or cancer surveillance
Who cannot take part
- If the participant has been in a recent experimental trial, these must have been completed not less than thirty days prior to this study
- Contraindications to endoscopy (including toxic megacolon) and biopsies (including severe coagulopathy/thrombocytopenia)
- Poor bowel preparation (defined as total BBPS <6 or BBPS <2 in observed segment for sigmoidoscopy)
- Significant co-morbidities limiting life expectancy and conferring high risk of endoscopy
- Pregnant and breast-feeding subjects
- Inability to provide informed consent

About the trial
What the trial wants to find out
This international multicentre prospective study aims to develop a new simple score using enhanced endoscopic techniques which focus on the vascular features of the colon and reliably distinguish between a quiescent and a mild inflammation in ulcerative colitis (UC). The diagnostic performance of the new score in defining disease activity/remission compared to existing endoscopic and histological scores and predict long-term clinical outcomes will be evaluated. The study also aims to adapt current artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms for enhanced endoscopic techniques to improve standardization in UC disease assessment and outcome prediction.
The group in the trial
- Ulcerative Colitis patients
UC patients who have been scheduled for colonoscopy for disease assessment or surveillance
Treatment: Colonoscopy after bowel cleansing, Intestinal biopsies, blood sampling, Stool, and Clinical follow-up
