About this study

Multicenter prospective cohort study in which patients ≥18 years with an ovarian tumor for which an ultrasound has been performed in accordance with IOTA criteria and the IOTA ADNEX model has been applied are included. Ultrasound data from these patients will be prospectively recorded in a database to determine the diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model in Dutch gynaecological practice.

Read the detailed description

Rationale: Correct pre-operative classification of ovarian tumors is critical for optimal treatment of both women with benign and malignant ovarian tumors. The International Ovarian Tumor Analysis (IOTA) consortium developed several risk-assessment strategies, including the Assessment of Different NEoplasias in the adneXa (ADNEX) model. This is a polytomous model that estimates the risk of malignancy in women with an ovarian tumor and can help differentiate benign from malignant ovarian tumors. Recent validation studies have shown superior diagnostic accuracy of the ADNEX model compared with previously developed risk-assessment strategies. However, the diagnostic accuracy of this model in daily clinical practice is still unknown. Furthermore, expertise is necessary to use this model before the results are reliable. With the recently published Dutch guideline on risk-assessment strategies of ovarian tumors, in which it is advised to use the ADNEX model, clinical data on diagnostic performance of the ADNEX model in daily Dutch gynaecological practice are necessary. Lower sensitivity and/or specificity of the model will have significant influence on the referral practice in The Netherlands.

Objective: To determine the diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model in the discrimination between benign and malignant ovarian tumors in daily gynaecological practice in The Netherlands.

Study design: Multicentre prospective cohort study. Hospitals from three oncologic networks in the Netherlands will participate in this trial. Ultrasound data will be prospectively recorded in a database for a duration of five years by means of an electronic case report form (eCRF). With these data, the diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model will be calculated.

Study population: All women ≥ 18 years with an ovarian tumor for which ultrasound assessment in accordance with the IOTA definitions has been performed and the ADNEX model has been applied. Women with a tumor that meets the IOTA criteria of a benign 'easy descriptor' will be excluded.

Data collection: All patients eligible for this study will be asked for informed consent and clinical data will be collected through eCRFs. Data will be collected in a cloud-based database by the treating physician.

Main study parameters/endpoints: The sensitivity, specificity and area under the curve of the IOTA ADNEX model.

Secondary analysis: Secondary endpoints include the influence of practice variation (eg type of center, volume per center, prevalence of malignancy, availability of consultation time specifically aimed at performing ultrasounds according to IOTA criteria) and the experience of the ultrasound performer on the diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model.

What participants receive

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

  • Observational study. Prospective registration of ultrasound data in patients with ovarian tumors for which an ultrasound in according with the IOTA definitions is performed.Other

    From all included patients, prospective data will be collected of the ultrasound(s) performed, the performed treatment and in case of surgery also the final pathological diagnosis. Participating patients will not be subjected to acts or additional procedures or examinations in this study, nor will rules of conduct be imposed.

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model

    Area under the curve (AUC)

    Measured: 5 years (2022 - 2027)

  2. Sensitivity and specificity

    Sensitivity and specificity of the IOTA ADNEX model (%) at different thresholds

    Measured: 5 years (2022 - 2027)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Factors influencing the diagnostic performance of the IOTA ADNEX model

    Influence on the diagnostic performance of the type of center, volume per center, prevalence of malignancy, experience of ultrasound performer, availability of consultation time specifically aimed at performing ultrasounds according to IOTA criteria

    Measured: 5 years (2022 - 2027)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Ovarian Tumor and Ovarian Cancer, run by Maxima Medical Center at 1 site in Netherlands.

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 6 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 27 Oct 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 Netherlands. 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 Esther Lems, MD (+31 40 888 83 80, PRIORITY@mmc.nl), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Diagnostic accuracy of the IOTA ADNEX model (time frame: 5 years (2022 - 2027)). 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 27 Oct 2023.
