About this study

Official title: An Evaluation of the Accuracy of AutoDx-DR, a Software Algorithm That Detects Diabetic Retinopathy From Retinal Images of Individuals With Diabetes

In this study, we will prospectively evaluate the accuracy of a deep-learning based software algorithm in the detection of diabetic retinopathy from 60° wide single-field retinal fundus images.

Read the detailed description

We will obtain 60° wide single-field retinal fundus images from subjects who are diabetic patients in primary care environments (i.e. non-eye care settings, such as internal medicine, family medicine, and endocrinology). The fundus images will be uploaded to the RetinaVue Network software using the AutoDx-DR with Over-read modality, where images are transmitted to both AutoDx-DR and a remote ophthalmologist. AutoDx-DR will generate an initial Refer or Not Refer recommendation and the remote ophthalmologist will provide a detailed diagnostic image interpretation which will be used for patient management and referral during the course of the study. AutoDx-DR can also generate a third output which is "Inadequate for Interpretation". In this case, the images will still be sent to the remote ophthalmologist for interpretation. If the ophthalmologist also cannot interpret the images, the patient will be recommended to have an in-person comprehensive ophthalmologic exam.

Subjects participating in this study will undergo further retinal fundus imaging: four mydriatic, stereoscopic 45° field of view (4W) retinal images and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) captured with the Reference Standard Camera (i.e. Zeiss Cirrus 600 photo, or other appropriate FDA-cleared imaging device with stereo fundus photography and SD-OCT capability that meets the requirements of the certified fundus photography reading center such as Topcon, Optovue, and Heidelberg). The 4W and SD-OCT imaging will be performed by a certified technician located at or near the enrolling study site. The 4W and SD-OCT images will be interpreted by a certified fundus photography reading center (FPRC) for more than mild DR or any diabetic macular edema. The FPRC's Not Refer/Refer determination will be used as the "gold standard" interpretation in this study.

The AutoDx-DR interpretation of the 60° wide single-field images will be compared to the FPRC "gold standard" interpretation for the Not Refer/Refer recommendation. Accuracy metrics of sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), positive likelihood ratio (PLR), and negative likelihood ratio (NLR), with 95% confidence intervals will be calculated. All diabetic patients who are attending routine primary care or endocrinology appointments and meet the enrollment criteria will be invited to participate in the study. All study procedures will be performed during a single study visit.

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity

    The ability of AutoDX-DR to correctly identify those with the disease (true positive rate)

    Measured: Each subject will only have one day study visit and will provide the AutoDX-DR and gold standard reading during their one visit.

  2. Specificity

    The ability of AutoDX-DR to correctly identify those without the disease (true negative rate)

    Measured: Each subject will only have one day study visit and will provide the AutoDX-DR and gold standard reading during their one visit.

Model description
This is a study to determine the accuracy of AutoDX. All eligible study participants will have a retinal fundus image taken which is then uploaded to the RetinaVue Network. Subjects will also undergo further retinal fundus imaging: four mydriatic, stereoscopic 45° field of view (4W) retinal images and spectral domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) captured with the Reference Standard Camera.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing AutoDX-DR in people with Diabetic Retinopathy, run by Hill-Rom.

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 6 inclusion and 10 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 13 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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?

Contact Elizabeth Downs (9893394131, Elizabeth.Downs@hillrom.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity (time frame: Each subject will only have one day study visit and will provide the AutoDX-DR and gold standard reading during their one visit.). 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 Nov 2020.
