About this study

This project is an open, single-center, prospective study aimed at developing high-sensitivity, high-specificity enrichment SERS chips using femtosecond laser processing technology. It involves extracting information from blood samples of ovarian cancer patients and normal controls, specifically identifying cancer and non-cancer signals. The study will construct a statistical algorithm model for the early diagnosis of ovarian cancer, enabling early identification and intervention for ovarian cancer patients.

Read the detailed description

Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (EOC) poses a significant challenge in the field of gynecological oncology regarding precise early screening. In response to this critical scientific issue, the research team has designed and developed a high-sensitivity, high-specificity enrichment SERS chip, exploring its applications in the screening and diagnosis of ovarian cancer. The development of the SERS chip and its functional implementation has been done.Clinical research trials are conducted for ovarian cancer screening and diagnosis, analyzing the physicochemical properties of key biomolecules in the blood of ovarian cancer patients. The study reveals the interaction patterns between SERS active particles and biomolecules, establishing a competitive adsorption model between multiple biomolecules and active particles. Raman spectra of individual components are collected to create a characteristic Raman information database for key biomolecules.

The analysis of Raman spectra from ovarian cancer patients and healthy individuals delves into the characteristic signals, constructing a statistical classification model for patient and normal Raman signals. Different tissue types and grades of ovarian cancer patients' Raman spectra signals are analyzed, establishing high-throughput classification methods for various ovarian cancers. By combining clinical gold-standard detection techniques, the sources of characteristic signals are determined, providing a theoretical foundation and technical support for conducting ovarian cancer research and establishing treatment plans in clinical settings.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Cancer, Epithelial, run by Anhui Provincial Hospital at 1 site in China.

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 4 inclusion and 5 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 15 Oct 2024. 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 China. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Ying Zhou, MD (_8613865901025, caddiezy@ustc.edu.cn), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

PFS PFS (time frame: one year). 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 15 Oct 2024.
