  Purpose

Prospective, Single arm, Multi-Center

  1. To establish the safety and preliminary efficacy of the Check-Cap System in patients with negative FOBT (Fecal Occult Blood Test)
  2. To collect data about the overall imaging of the colon internal surface during the passage of the capsule
  3. To develop a correlation map between the imaging of the polyps by optical colonoscopy vs. the images of same polyps by the Check-Cap capsule vs. the imaging of same polyps by CT Colonography [CTC] (in patients which were referred after positive CTC examination)

Condition Intervention
ColoRectal Cancer
Colonic Pre-malignant Polyps
 Device: The P1 Check-Cap capsule

Study Type: Interventional
Study Design: Endpoint Classification: Safety/Efficacy Study
Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment
Masking: Open Label
Primary Purpose: Diagnostic
Official Title: Feasibility, Multi-center Prospective Study of Check-Cap's P1 Capsule System in Patients Eligible for ColoRectal Cancer [CRC] Screening

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • safety - transit time (less than 300 hours) [ Time Frame: after each subject (once the capsule in excreted, typically 30-50 hours) ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
    To evaluate the safety of the device in terms of total and segmental transit time and to study the effect of the presence of polyps and variable colon dimensions on these parameters. The measured effect is the correlation of the capsule transit time (hours) with the number of polyps and their size (in mm).


Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • Colon Capsule correlation map (Empirical, qualitative) [ Time Frame: end of study (anticipted within 4-6 months) ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
    To develop a correlation map between the imaging of the polyps by optical colonoscopy vs. the images of same polyps by the Check-Cap capsule vs. the imaging of same polyps by CT Colonography (in patients which were referred after positive CTC examination). No quantitative data here, only qualitative comparison between the scanning of the inner surface of the colon by the 3 independedt imaging modalities. No statistical plan or sample size justification would be provided, as is convention for pilot studies.


Estimated Enrollment: 60
Study Start Date: November 2011
Estimated Primary Completion Date: November 2012 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arms Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Suject eligible for CRC screening by Colonoscopy
  • Male and female patients older than 50 and younger than 75 years old who volunteer for the experiment and qualify with the inclusion / Exclusion criteria
  • All patients that are eligible for enrollment in the study will be tested by FOBT, by the P1 capsule and then by Colonoscopy
 Device: The P1 Check-Cap capsule
The P1 Check-Cap capsule will be ingested by all participants. After the Capsule test, they will be referred for optical colonoscopy as part of the study
