Trial summary

Background Information With the advance in cancer biology, we realize that malignant neoplasm is related with different biological patterns in metabolome and microbiota. Because of the progress in optical spectrometry, it has become possible to evaluate whole visible and innon-visiable absorptive spectrum in human… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Utilize Hyperspectral Imaging to Reveal the Possible Clues of Neoplasm for Early Stage Detection

Background Information With the advance in cancer biology, we realize that malignant neoplasm is related with different biological patterns in metabolome and microbiota. Because of the progress in optical spectrometry, it has become possible to evaluate whole visible and innon-visiable absorptive spectrum in human specimens, which may enable detection of minor changes in compound related with altered metabolome and microbiota. We hope to utilize hyperspectral imagingthis spectrum technology to reveal the possible clues of neoplasm for early stage detection

Material and Methods This research intended to enroll one hundred patients into the study. This includes patients with positive stool or urine analysis admitted for workup of colorectal cancer. We will scan the stool and urine with hyperspectral imaging sensoroptical spectrometer, which utilize multichannel charge-coupled device and InGaAs array to analyze the full spectrum of light patterns. The image pattern will be stored and used to linked final diagnosis. Absorption, scattering, and reflection spectra are expected for analysis. Follow up analysis after cancer staging will be used for lowering background noise in all spectra.

Expected Results We expect that there will be specific spectral pattern in stool of colorectal cancer patients, which may be related with cancer staging and different from those in patients without malignancy. Difference in spectra will lead to discovery of new biomarker for colorectal cancer and related diseases. The optic spectra pattern of stool and urine may assist early diagnosis and staging of different malignancies

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Hyperspectral Imaging Data of Excreta, run by Chang Gung Memorial Hospital at 1 site in Taiwan.

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 3 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 30 Mar 2018. 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 Taiwan. 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 Chih-Shou Chen (+886975353211, cgmh5093@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

neoplasm diagnosis (time frame: 6 months after examination). 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 30 Mar 2018; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 31 Oct 2026.
