 The goal of this research is to develop the use of fluorescence-labeled peptides Colon KCC that affinity bind to pre-cancerous mucosa in the digestive tract for use as an imaging agent to aid in the early detection of colon cancer. Currently colon cancer prevention is achieved by endoscopic evaluation and removal of pre-malignant lesions adenomatous polyps by endoscopic resection and biopsy. Standard endoscopy uses white light illumination and is only able to detect pre-cancerous tissue that has abnormal architectural features, such as a polyp or mass. However, pre-cancerous lesions can also be flat in appearance and visually indistinct from normal tissue; such as in the case of chronic ulcerative colitis and or some right-sided polyps.
