Evaluation of Gixam's Efficacy Predicting the Presence of Advanced and Non-advanced Colorectal Neoplasia in a FIT Negative Population
What this study is about
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.
View original scientific description
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. 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. Is the use of the Gixam device safe? Gixam test result will be compared to the findings of a standard of care screening colonoscopy. Study participants will: 1. Undergo the Gixam test 2. Take a FIT at home and ship to a laboratory. 3. Undergo a standard of care screening colonoscopy.
Interventions
DEVICE
Gixam System
All participant will undergo the Gixam test per device instructions for use
DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
FIT
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.
PROCEDURE
Standard of care screening colonoscopy
All participants will undergo a standard of care screening colonoscopy which serves as the gold truth in this study
Primary outcome measures
Primary Safety Endpoint
Time frame: From enrollment to the end of study at 30 days after
Number of device-related adverse events and serious adverse events.
Primary Efficacy Endpoints
Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 30 days
Sensitivity and specificity of Gixam in participants with a negative FIT result.

- Participant has a diagnosis or medical / family history of any of the following conditions, including:
- Familial adenomatous polyposis (also referred to as "FAP", including attenuated FAP and Gardner's syndrome)
- Hereditary non-polyposis CRC syndrome (also referred to as "HNPCC" or "Lynch Syndrome")
- Other hereditary cancer syndromes including but not limited to Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, MYH-Associated Polyposis (MAP), Turcot's (or Crail's) Syndrome, Cowden's Syndrome, Juvenile Polyposis, Neurofibromatosis, or Familial Hyperplastic Polyposis.
- Participant has a diagnosis or personal history of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) including chronic ulcerative colitis and/or Crohn's disease.
- Participants with a disability to extend their tongue.
- Participants with tongue tremor.
- Participants with tongue piercing.
- Participants that had a dental visit in the 7 days prior to the Gixam test.
- Participants that have taken antibiotics or anti-fungal medications in the 14 days prior to the Gixam test.
- Participants that have taken anti-inflammatories or probiotics in the 14 days prior to the Gixam test.

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
