Does GP endorsement and early information improve colonoscopy follow-up after a positive colorectal cancer screening test?

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

In France, many people with a positive colorectal cancer screening test delay or miss diagnostic colonoscopy. This phase 3 interventional study compares usual follow-up with two enhanced approaches: an information leaflet about colonoscopy follow-up and a GP endorsement of the CRCDC follow-up letters. The goal is to increase the rate of completed colonoscopies at six months. Participants are adults 50–75 with a recent positive screening result and residing in the Centre Val de Loire region. Outcomes focus on follow-up adherence and timeliness of diagnostic colonoscopy.
