About this study
Official title: Prospective Collection of Samples for Development of the Natera Ovarian Cancer Detection Assay

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Compare ctDNA from benign ovarian masses and confirmed ovarian cancers
Examine ctDNA between benign ovarian masses and confirmed ovarian cancer cases (based on tumor pathology report). The purpose of this outcome is to determine whether cfDNA could be used to develop a non-invasive ovarian cancer assay to distinguish between malignant and benign masses.
Measured: Up to 60 months or 5 years
Secondary outcomes (1)
Determine the relationship between quantity of ctDNA and standard prognostic criteria
Examine quantity of ctDNA and standard prognostic criteria such as tumor grade, histology and stage of cancer
Measured: Up to 60 months or 5 years

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?
Compare ctDNA from benign ovarian masses and confirmed ovarian cancers (time frame: Up to 60 months or 5 years). 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?
