Trial summary

Mammography is a two-dimensional imaging technique which involves the tissues overlapping under the projective image; dense glandular tissue above or below the lesion can reduce the visibility of the lesion. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Study of an Artificial Intelligence Algorithm for the Classification of Digital Tomosynthesis Breast Images for Automated Breast Cancer Diagnosis

Mammography is a two-dimensional imaging technique which involves the tissues overlapping under the projective image; dense glandular tissue above or below the lesion can reduce the visibility of the lesion.

The trouble could be the interpretation of the image obtained which may lead to the inability to visualize a fist stage cancer and the probability that to a healthy person will be diagnosed a pathology that is not present (false positive). The introduction of an almost three-dimensional technique imaging called breast digital tomosynthesis (DBT) can overcome most limitations. In the last 5 years image analysis methods based on Artificial Intelligence (, AI) have also been massively introduced in breast cancer detection. The study is a prospective observational study based on Artificial intelligence whose the mail goal is to develop a method to identify a lesion.

What is being measured

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

  1. Artificial Intelligence system to detect a lesion

    Lesion detction is based on breast density, case type, BIRADS assessment categories, mammographic appearance, size and pathological profile of malignant lesions

    Measured: 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast Cancer Diagnosis, run by Regina Elena Cancer Institute at 2 sites in Italy.

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 2 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 May 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Italy. 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?

Contact Valeria Landoni (+39 06 52665602, valeria.landoni@ifo.it), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Artificial Intelligence system to detect a lesion (time frame: 12 months). 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 15 May 2023.
