A Study to Examine How Often (Every 5 Years or 10 Years) a Colonoscopy Should be Done in Participants Who Had One or Two Small Growths of Tissue Removed from Their Colon

Trial Status: active

This phase III trial compares how often (every 5 and 10 years versus every 10 years) a colonoscopy should be done in participants who had one or two non-cancerous (benign) small growth of tissue (polyps) removed from their colon. The usual approach is to have a repeat colonoscopy in 5 to 10 years. The goal of this study is to find the best timing for a repeat colonoscopy for patients with 1 or 2 small benign polyps removed during colonoscopy.
