Trial summary

The objective of the study is to create a test that will discriminate between malignant and benign ovarian mass that was diagnosed by ultrasound.

About this study

Official title: Prediction of Ovarian Malignancy, in the Presence of Sonographic Pelvic Mass Using Patient History, Sonographic Parameters and Serum Markers

The objective of the study is to create a test that will discriminate between malignant and benign ovarian mass that was diagnosed by ultrasound. The investigators will examine about 800 women and at the end of the study the investigators will combine data from the woman's history, the sonographic characters of the mass and serum biological markers along with the woman's outcome (which means - whether the mass was malignant, benign, or disappeared or remained constant with no intervention).

Read the detailed description

Patients that arrive to the sonographic unit of the gynecological department with a diagnosis of ovarian mass will have a sonographic examination that include: Trans-vaginal +- trans-abdominal ultrasound with Doppler and three dimensional sonographic exam. anamnestic data will be collected and serum test for CA 125, HE4 and CEA. The management of the specific patient will be according to the department protocol, regardless the study data. The investigators will collect data about operation outcome and histological results of women that will be operated. Women that won't be operated on will be followed up every 6 months by the study team.

At the end of the study a statistical analysis will be made to create a sensitive and specific test for the prediction of malignancy in sonographic diagnosed ovarian mass.

What is being measured

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

  1. The risk of malignancy in the presence of pelvic mass demonstrated by sonography.

    Using a combination of the results of US examination, patient's history and serum markers to predict the risk of malignancy in women with pelvic mass demonstrated by sonography.

    Measured: Up to 2 months after recruiting and examining the last participant of the study

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. number and kind of operative complications

    Information about operative complications will be collected from the files of participants who were operated

    Measured: within one month after operation

  2. Reasons for intervention

    The reasons that led the treating physician to choose a surgical treatment will be collected from the files of the participants who were operated

    Measured: within one month after operation

  3. operative finding and histologic results

    The operative finding and histologic results will be collected from the files of the participants who were operated

    Measured: within one month after operation

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 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 18 Jun 2015. 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 Israel. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

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?

The risk of malignancy in the presence of pelvic mass demonstrated by sonography. (time frame: Up to 2 months after recruiting and examining the last participant of the study). 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.
