About this study

Official title: Identification and Semi -Quantification of ER/PR Proteins Expression Status in Formalin Fixed, Paraffin-embedded Normal and Neoplastic Tissue

The purpose of the study is the identification and quantification of proteins expression level in breast cancer tissues.

The imaging system is intended for diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection, counting and classifying ER/PR IHC stained samples.

Read the detailed description

The anti ER/PR Kit is a semi-quantitative immunohistochemical (IHC) assay to identify the progesterone (PR) and estrogen (ER) expressions in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded human breast cancer tissue specimens. Results from the ER/PR test is indicated as an aid in the assessment of the hormones status of breast cancer patients. While the ER/PR kit provides the antibodies that offer direct visualization and semi-quantification of the protein expression through a brightfield microscope, the GenASIs GoPath system is designed to complement the routine workflow of the pathologist in the review of immunohistochemically stained histologic slides.

What is being measured

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

  1. IVD study of ER/PR IHC samples: Accuracy of analysis

    Comparison tests (accuracy) between manual and automatic analysis of antibody expressions. The results from the automatic counting from the clinical studies will be compared to the manual counting analysis.

    Accuracy of the study will be declared "Success" if Positive, Negative and Overall agreement with manual count of the ER \& PR antibody at least 90%.

    Measured: 1 Day

  2. IVD study of ER/PR IHC samples: Repeatability & Reproducibility of analysis

    Repeatability \& Reproducibility tests of system analysis of antibody expressions. R\&R acceptance criteria of ER/PR are related to the average agreement for between runs, between days and between systems R\&R part of the study will be declared "Success" if Positive and Negative average agreement will be at least 85%.

    Measured: 1 Day

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer, run by Applied Spectral Imaging Ltd. at 1 site in United States.

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 1 inclusion and 1 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Jan 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. 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?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

IVD study of ER/PR IHC samples: Accuracy of analysis (time frame: 1 Day). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
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 13 Jan 2016.
