About this study

Official title: European Multicenter Validation of an ADNEXMR SCORING System for Characterizing Adnexal Masses: "EURAD-MR Classification"

An adnexal mass is the most common indication for gynaecological surgery . Pre operative characterization is crucial and a scoring system would be useful to standardize the imaging report and thus, improve patient management. Recently, our center developed the first MR scoring system named ADNEXMR SCORING system in a retrospective study which is accurate and reproducible (1). Our objectives are to perform an external prospective validation of this scoring system, to evaluate its potential impact on therapeutic strategy and to test its reproducibility.

This is a prospective large multicenter study. All patients with a sonographically indeterminate adnexal mass referred for MR imaging will be consecutively included in each center. Then, patients will undergo a routine pelvic MR imaging. Prospectively, one senior and one junior radiologists independently analyze the different MR criteria to characterize adnexal masses. The MR report will be issued as standard and the patient will be managed accordingly. Then, the reader will classify the mass using ADNEXMR SCORING system. The classification will be compared to the reference standard as defined below. The reproducibility of the classification will be tested between the junior and the senior radiologist. After anonymisation, images will be analyzed by another senior radiologist of another center blinded from any clinical or ultrasonographical data and correlated with the reference standard.

Reference standard: Reference standard will be surgical procedure with histology or standard clinical follow-up depending on most appropriate routine practice.

Sample size: The sample size was computed to ensure a power of at least 90% (with a two-sided type I error rate of 5%) to conclude that SCORE 2 and 3 and SCORE 4 and 5 would have a different PPV. It would thus be necessary to have at least 569 patients classified as SCORE 2, 259 as SCORE 3, 52 as SCORE 4 and 51 as SCORE 5 (18). Given the prevalences, and assuming 6% of patients would be classified, as SCORE 1 and 10% would be lost to follow-up, 1340 patients will be included in this study to insure a probability of at least 95% to obtain the aforementioned number of patients in each score category. The inclusion period will last 18 months (extension for a period of 12 months) and monitoring will continue for 2 years.

Read the detailed description

All patients with an indeterminate ultrasonographically adnexal mass referred for MR imaging will be consecutively included in each center.

Inclusion Criteria

  • Patient ≥ 18 years old
  • With indeterminate ultrasonographic adnexal mass
  • Informed consent

Non inclusion Criteria

  • Pregnant women
  • Pacemaker, ferromagnetic materials, or foreign body at risk of mobilization
  • Intolerance to iodinated or gadolinium contrast agents, or severe renal insufficiency (GFR <30 ml/min/1.73m²).

Objectives • Primary objective: Evaluate if ADNEXMR SCORING system is relevant for reporting pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations performed for characterization of sonographically indeterminate adnexal masses in an external prospective multicenter study

  • Secondary objectives and endpoints: Evaluate
  1. The potential impact of applying the score to the therapeutic strategy, in particular to measure the possible reduction in oncologic surgery in benign cases
  2. If ADNEXMR SCORING system improves reproducibility of MR report for characterization of adnexal masses
  3. If ADNEXMR SCORING system is as accurate if the radiologist is blinded from any clinical and ultrasonographic data

Main endpoint Joint analysis of true negative and false negative rates according to ADNEXMR SCORING system as compared to the histological results (or follow-up outcome, see "reference standard", below) with an evaluation of the sensitivity and the specificity of the score

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. External validation of Adnex MR scoring system

    Evaluate if ADNEXMR SCORING system is relevant for reporting pelvic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examinations performed for characterization of sonographically indeterminate adnexal masses in an external prospective multicenter study

    Measured: 24 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Potential reduction of unnecessary surgery

    The potential impact of applying the score to the therapeutic strategy, in particular to measure the possible reduction in unnecessary surgery in benign cases

    Measured: 24 months

  2. Reproducibility of the score

    If ADNEXMR SCORING system improves reproducibility of MR report for characterization of adnexal masses

    Measured: 24 months

  3. Comparison between a blinded and an unblinded radiologist regarding sonographic data

    If ADNEXMR SCORING system is as accurate if the radiologist is blinded from any clinical and ultrasonographic data

    Measured: 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Tumor, run by Société d'Imagerie de la Femme at 24 sites in 8 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Jul 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 24 sites in France, United Kingdom, Portugal, Austria, Croatia and 3 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

External validation of Adnex MR scoring system (time frame: 24 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01738789, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 26 Jul 2017.
