Evaluation of Nevisense as Support Tool for the Diagnose of Keratinocyte Skin Cancer
- Conditions
- Keratinocyte Skin Cancer
- Interventions
- Device: Nevisense
- Registration Number
- NCT06064019
- Lead Sponsor
- SciBase AB
- Brief Summary
This is a prospective study to assess efficacy of the Nevisense device in identifying keratinocyte skin cancer (KC) in patients suspected of having skin cancer based on the initial physician's assessment.
All skin lesions with a suspicion of Basal cell carcinoma (BCC), Invasive Squamos cell Carcinoma (iSCC), Bowen's disease (BD) or actinic keratosis (AK) and destined for excision or biopsy for further histopathological analysis will be considered for inclusion in the study.

Group Intervention Description Nevisense Nevisense This will be a prospective investigator-initiated study to evaluate the accuracy of Nevisense for KC. First evaluation steps include dermatologist's clinical examination (visual inspection) and videodermoscopy. In those cases where the routine diagnostic procedures given above identify any suspicion of a KC, a Nevisense measurement is to be conducted after examination of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Thereafter, surgical excision and histopathologic examination follow. All skin lesions with a suspicion of BCC, iSCC, BD or AK and destined for excision or biopsy for further histopathological analysis will be considered for inclusion in the study. A maximum of three lesions per patient will be allowed for the study. The study aims to enrol 250 lesions in total.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Nevisense Sensitivity and Specificity 1 year This study has two primary endpoints:
1. Sensitivity ≥ 0.90
2. Sensitivity + Specificity \> 1.0
Sensitivity is the proportion of correctly identified cases of KC. Specificity is the proportion of correctly identified cases of non-KC
