Evaluation of C-Scan in Identifying Subjects With Elevated Risk of Polyps in the Colon
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of the first part of the study (subgroup R&D) is to demonstrate the safety and performance of the C-Scan system and to collect data in order to improve the analysis process. The purpose of the second part of the study (subgroup pre-pivotal) is to determine the ability of the C-Scan System to identify elevated risk subjects

Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Experimental: Single arm All study participants will undergo the C-Scan System procedure, followed by a standard of care optical colonoscopy |
Device: C-Scan System
Subjects will be provided with contrast agent and dietary fiber pills, and instructed to start intake approximately 48 hours prior to the planned C-Scan procedure start. C-Scan system intervention includes ingestion of the C-Scan Cap and attachment of the C-Scan track to the subject's lower back. The subject is required to keep the C-Scan Track attached to the lower back and to continue intake of contrast agent and dietary fiber pills until the C-Scan Cap's natural excretion. Standard of care optical colonoscopy will be performed within 60 days from the C-Scan Cap ingestion.
