Lynch syndrome (LS) is the most common genetic predisposition syndrome for colorectal cancer (CRC), responsible for around 2-4% of cancers. It is characterized by a pathogenic germline mutation in one of the DNA mismatch repair genes (path_MMR) MLH1, MSH2, MSH6, PMS2 or a deletion in the 3' region of the Epcam gene. Patients followed up for LS are at high risk of developing CRC at an early age, and have a high cumulative CRC risk. In this context, CRC screening by colonoscopy is of major importance, as it is associated with a reduction in both CRC incidence and mortality.
In France, the Institut National du Cancer (INCa) recommends colonoscopy with indigo carmine chromoendoscopy (CE), as it is associated with a significant increase in the adenoma detection rate (ADR) compared with white light. However, EC is not routinely performed in clinical practice, as it is a time-consuming technique requiring a dedicated slot with a trained operator.
Recent years have seen the emergence of artificial intelligence techniques for real-time polyp detection aids or CADe devices. These easy-to-use systems have shown very promising results compared with high-definition (HD) white light. Indeed, data from the first meta-analysis of 5 randomized controlled trials (4354 patients) confirmed a significantly higher ADD in the CADe group than in the HD group (36.6% vs. 25.2%; 95% CI], 1.27-1.62; P < 0.01; I2 Z 42%) 10. The CAD EYE system (Fujifilm) is a CADe device supporting both detection (sensitivity > 95%) and characterization of colonic polyps in real time.
To date, artificial intelligence has never been evaluated for CRC screening in patients followed up for LS. The aim of this work is to evaluate the effectiveness of the CAD EYE system in this specific population. To this end, we intend to conduct a randomized, controlled, non-inferiority trial comparing CAD EYE with CE in patients with LS.

Experimental: CAD-EYE group: Colorectal cancer screening with CAD EYE colonoscopy
The colonoscopy procedure for each patient will be no different from a conventional colonoscopy examination. In the CAD EYE group, descent is performed under white light, with the CAD EYE system switched on (device with CE mark). When polyps are detected, they are rigorously described and histological predictions of endoscopist and CAD EYE will be reported separately.

Device: Colorectal cancer screening with CAD EYE colonoscopy
The colonoscopy procedure for each patient will be no different from a conventional colonoscopy examination. A colonoscopy is considered complete if the endoscope reaches the appendicular orifice or the terminal ileum. In line with recommendations, water lavage (using a lavage pump) and aspiration of food residues will be performed on ascent and/or descent to visualize the entire colonic mucosa. In the CAD EYE group, descent is performed under white light, with the CAD EYE system switched on. When polyps are detected, they are rigorously described and histological predictions of endoscopist and CAD EYE will be reported separately. Then polyps will be removed by polypectomy or mucosectomy. Removed polyps are then sent for anatomopathological analysis. |
No Intervention: CE group : Colorectal cancer screening with indigo carmine chromo colonoscopy
The colonoscopy procedure for each patient will be no different from a conventional colonoscopy examination. In the CE group, descent is performed under white light with indigo carmin chromoendoscopy (0.4%) applied through a catheter spray. When polyps are detected, they are rigorously described and histological prediction of the endoscopist reported.

- to evaluate the effectiveness of the CAD EYE system in screening for neoplastic lesions in Lynch syndrome. [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years ]Comparison of the adenoma detection rate (ADR) between the CAD-EYE group and the indigo carmin chromoendoscopy (CE) group (reference technique).
- Detection rates of specific lesions [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years ]Mean number of adenomas and serrated lesions per patient
- Diagnostic performance of CAD EYE [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years ]Comparison of the diagnostic performance of CAD EYE assessed by specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value for the characterization (adenoma/hyperplastic) of colonic polyps with the CAD EYE automated detection system. The anatomopathology of polyps was taken as the diagnostic reference.
- Rate of resect and discard strategy [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years ]Evaluation of the feasibility of a "resect and discard" strategy in Lynch Syndrome. Retrospective analysis comparing CAD-EYE histological prediction vs. endoscopist prediction, using histological report as reference examination (Sensitivity and negative predictive value).
- Time of Colonoscopies [ Time Frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 years ]Comparison of different procedure times between the 2 groups. Total procedure time will be defined as the time from endoscope insertion to extraction through the anus. Withdrawal time will be defined as the time spent on inspection, from the cecum to extraction of the endoscope through the anus, excluding the time required for polypectomy.
