ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04551014

Brief Summary:
The focus of the study is to evaluate impact of submucosal injection of EverLift in achieving complete resection during polypectomy of polyps 4-9mm during colonoscopy.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Colo-rectal Cancer Polyp of Colon Adenomatous Polyp of Colon Device: Use of EverLift Device: Without use of EverLift Not Applicable

Detailed Description:

The details of the proposed study are as follows:

  1. Experimental group: using EverLift submucosal injection for polyps 4-9mm of the colon
  2. Control group: not using EverLift submucosal injection for polyps 4-9mm of the colon
  3. Methods:

    1. Colonoscopy will be performed in the same standard of care manner as if no study was taking place.
    2. If polyps 4-9mm are identified, the endoscopist is randomized to performing polypectomy with or without submucosal injection of EverLift.
    3. After removal of the polypectomy, two biopsies are performed at the margin of the polypectomy site to identify residual lesion.
    4. The polyp as well as well as the two biopsies are reviewed by a pathologist.

Primary Purpose: Treatment
Official Title: Randomized Controlled Trial Investigating Use of Submucosal Injection of EverLift in Rates of Complete Resection of Nonpedunculated Polyps 4-9mm
Actual Study Start Date : September 16, 2020
Actual Primary Completion Date : July 15, 2021
Actual Study Completion Date : July 15, 2021

Arm Intervention/treatment
Experimental: With EverLift
Polypectomy performed for polyps 4-9mm with submucosal injection of EverLift.
Device: Use of EverLift
Use of EverLift for submucosal injection prior to polypectomy

Experimental: Without EverLift
Polypectomy performed for polyps 4-9mm without submucosal injection of EverLift.
Device: Without use of EverLift
Without use of EverLift for submucosal injection prior to polypectomy




Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Completeness of resection [ Time Frame: 2 weeks ]
    The primary outcome measured is comparison of completeness of resection between the with EverLift and without EverLift groups.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Time to resection [ Time Frame: During the procedure ]
    The time between the snare is introduced till the polyp is removed and retrieved will be compared between the with and without EverLift groups.

  2. We will compare the number of snare attempts needed to remove the tissue adequately to the endoscopist's judgment [ Time Frame: During the procedure ]
  3. Complications [ Time Frame: 4 weeks ]
    We will compare rates of complications including perforation and immediate post-polypectomy bleeding, early post-polypectomy bleed (within 24 hours) and delayed post polypectomy bleed (between 24 hours and 30 days). Early post-polypectomy bleed and delayed post-polypectomy bleed is evaluated based on emergency room (ER) visit, inpatient stay, transfusion needed, repeat colonoscopy required, surgical intervention required, and mortality.
