Article Synopsis
- A study was done to see if a type of screening test called FIT was better than the usual procedure, colonoscopy, for first-degree relatives of people with colorectal cancer.
- The researchers wanted to know if more people would agree to take the FIT test compared to colonoscopy and if both tests would find the same number of serious issues.
- The study was planned to involve many people over several years but had to stop early because it wasn't looking like it would have good results, even though they still gathered data for two years after.
