Stool Sample Collection Study for Colorectal Cancer Test Research and Development
The primary objective of this study is to obtain de-identified stool specimens from participants with colonoscopic biopsy-based histopathologic diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) and/or a ≥1 cm colorectal polyp/adenoma/mass found during pre-enrollment colonoscopy that is of sufficient size to require surgical excision or complex colonoscopic polypectomy. The samples will be used for the purpose of research and development of a new molecular diagnostic test for the detection of neoplasms of the aerodigestive tract.
• Participant is a person ≥18 years of age.
• Participant has a diagnosis of CRC, at any stage, or ≥1 cm colorectal polyp/adenoma/mass found during pre-enrollment colonoscopy that is of sufficient size to require surgical excision or complex colonoscopic polypectomy.
• Participant understands the study procedures and can provide informed consent to participate in the study and authorization for release of relevant protected health information to the study Investigator.
