PATIENT GUIDE
`
`Indication for Use
`Cologuard is intended for the qualitative detection of colorectal neoplasia associated
`DNA markers and for the presence of occult hemoglobin in human stool. A positive
`result may indicate the presence of colorectal cancer (CRC) or advanced adenoma (AA)
`and should be followed by diagnostic colonoscopy. Cologuard is indicated to screen
`adults of either sex, 50 years or older, who are at typical average-risk for CRC. Cologuard
`is not a replacement for diagnostic colonoscopy or surveillance colonoscopy in high risk
`individuals.

`
`Contra-Indications
`Cologuard is intended for use with patients, age 50 years and older, at average
`risk who are typical candidates for CRC screening. Cologuard was not clinically
`evaluated for the following types of patients:
`(cid:120) Patients with a history of colorectal cancer, adenomas, or other related
`cancers.
`(cid:120) Patients who have had a positive result from another colorectal cancer
`screening method within the last 6 months.
`(cid:120) Patients who have been diagnosed with a condition that is associated with
`high risk for colorectal cancer. These include but are not limited to:
`o Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
`o Chronic ulcerative colitis (CUC)
`o Crohn’s disease
`o Familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP)
`o Family history of colorectal cancer
`(cid:120) Patients who have been diagnosed with a relevant familial (hereditary)
`cancer syndrome, such as Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer
`syndrome (HNPCCC or Lynch Syndrome), Peutz-Jeghers Syndrome, MYH-
`Associated Polyposis (MAP), Gardner’s syndrome, Turcot’s (or Crail’s)
`syndrome, Cowden’s syndrome, Juvenile Polyposis, Cronkhite-Canada
`syndrome, Neurofibromatosis, or Familial Hyperplastic Polyposis.

`
`
`
`Cologuard Warnings and Precautions
`
`(cid:120) The performance of Cologuard has been established in a cross sectional
`study (i.e., single point in time). Programmatic performance of Cologuard
`(i.e., benefits and risks with repeated testing over an established period of
`time) has not been studied. Performance has not been evaluated in adults
`who have been previously tested with Cologuard. Non-inferiority or
`superiority of Cologuard programmatic sensitivity as compared to other
`recommended screening methods for CRC and AA has not been established.
`(cid:120) CRC screening guideline recommendations vary for persons over the age of
`75. The decision to screen persons over the age of 75 should be made on an
`individualized basis in consultation with a healthcare provider. Cologuard
`test results should be interpreted with caution in older patients as the rate of
`false positive results increases with age.
`(cid:120) A negative Cologuard test result does not guarantee absence of cancer or
`advanced adenoma. Patients with a negative Cologuard test result should be
`advised to continue participating in a colorectal cancer screening program
`with another recommended screening method. The screening interval for
`this follow-up has not been established.
`(cid:120) Cologuard may produce false negative or false positive results. A false
`positive result occurs when Cologuard produces a positive result, even
`though a colonoscopy will not find cancer or precancerous polyps. A false
`negative result occurs when Cologuard does not detect a precancerous polyp
`or colorectal cancer even when a colonoscopy identifies the positive result.

`
`
`
`Cologuard Warnings and Precautions
`
` (cid:120)
`
` Patients should not provide a sample for Cologuard if they have diarrhea or if
`they have blood in their urine or stool (e.g., from bleeding hemorrhoids,
`bleeding cuts or wounds on their hands, rectal bleeding, or menstruation).
`(cid:120) To ensure the integrity of the sample, the laboratory must receive the
`patient specimens within 72 hours of collection. Patients should send stool
`samples to the laboratory according to the instructions stated in the
`Cologuard Patient Guide.
`(cid:120) Patients should be advised of the caution listed in the Cologuard Patient
`Guide. Patients should NOT drink the preservative liquid.
`(cid:120) The risks related to using the Cologuard Collection Kit are low, with no
`serious adverse events reported among people in a clinical trial. Patients
`should be careful when opening and closing the lids to avoid the risk of hand
`strain.

`

`How the Cologuard Collection Kit Works
`
`Your doctor has ordered Cologuard to screen for colorectal cancer and precancer.
`
`Cologuard is a screening test that uses a stool sample (your bowel movement) to
`detect colorectal cancer and precancer. Every day, your colon sheds cells that line
`the colon. As part of this process, normal cells along with abnormal cells from
`precancer or cancers are shed into the colon. Your stool picks up those cells as it
`passes through your colon. Cologuard is designed to detect the DNA and
`hemoglobin released from these abnormal cells in your stool.
`
`The Cologuard collection kit is used to collect your stool sample. After you collect
`your stool sample following the instructions in this Patient Guide, the collection
`kit will be delivered to a lab. The lab will test your stool sample and send the
`results to your doctor. Your doctor will contact you with the test results.
`
`Note: You are not required to change your diet or medications to use this screening test.
`
`You can store your kit until you are ready to use it.
`o Store at room temperature.
`o Keep away from heat and direct sunlight.
`o Keep out of the reach of children.

`

`
`What Does the Cologuard Test Result Mean?
`Your doctor will talk with you about your results. The test result can be Positive, Negative or
`No result obtained.
`
`What Does a Positive Result Mean?
`• A Positive result means the test detected abnormal DNA and/or blood that could be
`caused by precancer or cancer in the colon.
`• The test can also have a Positive result that is incorrect (false positive). This means the
`test result is Positive, but no cancer or precancer is actually present.
`• Any Positive result should be followed by a colonoscopy.
`• Talk about your test result with your doctor to find out if additional testing is needed.
`
`
`What Does a Negative Result Mean?
`• A Negative test result means the test did not detect abnormal DNA and/or blood in the
`sample.
`• The test can also have a Negative result that is incorrect (false negative). This means the
`test result missed a potential cancer or precancer. For that reason, it is recommended
`that you schedule regular screenings.
`• Talk to your doctor about your test result. Your doctor will recommend a screening
`schedule that is best for you.
`
`
`What Does No Result Obtained Mean?
`• A “No Result Obtained” means the test was not able to provide a result.
`• If this happens, your doctor will talk with you about the next steps. For example, you may
`be asked to provide another stool sample to test.

`Clinical Study Results
`Cologuard was studied in a large clinical trial to determine the effectiveness of the test.
`The trial included more than 10,000 patients at 90 sites in the US and Canada. Each person
`in the study completed Cologuard and a fecal occult blood test before having a standard
`colonoscopy. The main purpose of the study was to find out the performance of Cologuard
`for finding cancer and precancer compared to a colonoscopy.
`In the clinical study, Cologuard correctly detected 92% of colorectal cancers and 42% of
`advanced adenomas in the study population that had disease. The Cologuard test
`correctly gave a negative screening result for 87% of the study subjects that did not
`have colorectal cancer or advanced adenomas. In other words, 13% of people without
`cancer or precancer tested positive.
