Completion Date

Summary
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether testing of stool for a panel of markers will enable us to detect polyps and cancer compared to standard testing.
Detailed Description
Participants who were diagnosed with Stage I-III colorectal cancer will undergo testing with mt-sDNA followed by a questionnaire about satisfaction with mt-sDNA (multitarget stool DNA panel), prior to their scheduled colonoscopies at years 1 and 4 after diagnosis. Participants will be asked to provide a stool sample for mt-sDNA (Cologuard) testing that will be collected within 90 days before their scheduled colonoscopy. The kit will be given to the participant by study personnel and mailed back directly to Exact Science.
