About this study

Official title: A Performance Evaluation Study of Arquer Diagnostics Ltd's MCM5 ELISA (ADXGYNAE) Test to Aid in the Diagnosis of Endometrial Cancer

The objective of this multi-centre, prospective study, is to evaluate the performance of a urine MCM5 ELISA test (ADXGYNAE) in the detection of endometrial cancer in patients with postmenopausal bleeding. Patients attending a gynaecology clinic for investigation of postmenopausal bleeding will be recruited and asked to provide a urine sample to be tested. The results of the MCM5 test will be recorded and compared to the patient's routine investigations to determine the clinical utility of the test as an aid in the diagnosis of endometrial cancer.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MCM5 ELISADiagnostic test

    Also called ADXGYNAE

    ADXGYNAE is a non-invasive ELISA utilising a combination of two monoclonal antibodies for the detection of MCM5 in urine sediment. It is intended to aid in the detection of endometrial cancer in women with postmenopausal bleeding who are suspected of having endometrial cancer. Participants will be asked to provide a urine specimen, which will be centrifuged before the sediment is lysed. The lysed sample will then be tested with the MCM5 ELISA.

Patients with postmenopausal bleedingPatients attending a gynaecology clinic for investigation of postmenopausal bleeding and undergoing a transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS).
Receives: Diagnostic Test: MCM5 ELISA

What is being measured

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

  1. Sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value (NPV) of ADXGYNAE will be calculated to establish the diagnostic accuracy for the detection of endometrial cancer.

    The MCM5 test result will be compared with data obtained from patient's standard of care clinical investigations, including results from transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) and endometrial biopsy or hysteroscopy. A definitive diagnosis of endometrial cancer will be confirmed by the presence of histologically proven endometrial cancer on resection/biopsy. Patients who do not have an endometrial biopsy will be followed up at 6 months to identify if further investigations were carried out.

    Measured: 1 year

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Endometrial Cancer, run by Arquer Diagnostics Ltd at 1 site in United Kingdom.

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 5 inclusion and 7 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 1 Feb 2023. 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 United Kingdom. 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 Jacqueline Stockley, PhD (+44 191 516 6764, jacqui@arquerdx.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value (NPV) of ADXGYNAE will be calculated to establish the diagnostic accuracy for the detection of endometrial cancer. (time frame: 1 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05287048, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 1 Feb 2023.
