NCT06549725

Brief Summary

Software "Lipidica" is intended to be used for processing data generated by the in-house in vitro diagnostic medical device for lipidomic testing for the purpose of screening Pancreatic cancer (PaC) in the population at high risk of this cancer due to familial risk, selected gene mutations or hereditary pancreatic diseases. The primary objective is to verify that the investigational IVDSW can discriminate between results of patients with Pancreatic cancer and persons without Pancreatic cancer but at higher risk of this cancer disease due to their predispositions. Participants will:

  • come to baseline and end of study visit for blood sampling and medical imaging
  • some participant will undertake one more visit depending on their results on baseline

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • The primary objective is to verify that the investigational IVDSW can discriminate between results of patients with PaC and persons without PaC but at higher risk of this cancer disease due to their predispositions.

    The primary objective will be assessed using the following parameters: Diagnostic sensitivity The sensitivity is defined as the capacity to correctly detect confirmed positive samples of plasma from patient with PaC diagnosed with standard diagnostic methods. Diagnostic specificity The specificity is the ability to correctly classify samples of plasma from patient without PaC but at higher risk of the disease. The diagnosis of PaC will be excluded using standard diagnostic methods. Positive predictive value It is the ratio of patients with PaC truly diagnosed as positive to all those who had positive results (including healthy subjects who were incorrectly diagnosed as patients with PaC). Negative predictive value It is the ratio of subjects truly diagnosed as negative to all those who had negative results (including patients with PaC who were incorrectly diagnosed as healthy). Likelihood ratio and Expected values in normal and affected populations

    Interim analysis 1 year from first subject enrolled and through study completion (an average of 3 years)

Other Outcomes (5)

  • Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels with PaC diagnosis status

    Through study completion (an average of 3 years)

  • Effect of CA 19-9 and CEA tumor markers on sensitivity and specificity

    Through study completion (an average of 3 years)

  • Several predefined cut-off values

    Through study completion (an average of 3 years)

  • +2 more other outcomes

Study Arms (2)

Patients with Pancreatic cancer

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants with histologically confirmed diagnosis of resectable Pancreatic cancer. Arm 1 will undertake one visit (baseline) for blood sampling - lipidomics, CA 19-9 and CEA, HbA1c. At baseline their participation ends.

Device: software LipidicaDiagnostic Test: laboratory examination

Patient at risk of Pancreatic cancer

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants without Pancreatic cancer but at higher risk of this cancer disease due to their predispositions. Arm 2 will come for two or three visits depending on results at baseline. On each visit blood sampling (lipidomics, CA 19-9 and CEA, HbA1c, hCG) and medical imaging by EUS, MR or CT will be performed. Their participation ends with the diagnosis of Pancreatic cancer or after 12 months of follow-up.

Device: software LipidicaProcedure: endoscopic ultrasonographyProcedure: magnetic resonanceDiagnostic Test: laboratory examinationProcedure: computed tomography

Interventions

The investigational in vitro diagnostic medical device-software (IVDSW) "Lipidica" processes and analyses data inputs from the analysis of lipid profile in human plasma using an in-house in vitro diagnostic medical device.

Sexall
Healthy VolunteersYes
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)
