Overview

Brief Summary

Endometriosis is a complex, heterogeneous disease that may present inconsistently across women. Using disease-specific biomarkers and advanced biostatistics, DotLab is developing a biomarker test to confirm the presence of endometriosis.This is a multi-center, prospective, observational, minimal risk study in women undergoing laparoscopy, laparotomy or other pelvic surgical procedure for endometriosis, infertility or another benign gynecological indication. Participants will undergo 2 study visits for collection of blood and saliva and completion of study questionnaires.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

  • Participant is willing and able to provide written informed consent.
  • Participant is willing and able to provide up to 50 mL of blood via venipuncture and comply with all other study and sample collection procedures.
  • Participant is a female aged 18 through 49 years (inclusive).
  • Participant is scheduled to undergo:
  • Laparotomy or laparoscopy for signs and symptoms of suspected endometriosis. This shall constitute approximately 95% of the participants enrolled.
  • Laparotomy, laparoscopy, or other procedures including, but not limited to, tubal ligation, lysis of adhesions, hysterectomy for benign condition, myomectomy, salpingo-oophorectomy, cystectomy, or diagnostic laparoscopy for indications including, but not limited to, infertility or benign gynecological indications (e.g., benign pelvic masses, infertility, abnormal uterine bleeding). This shall constitute approximately 5% of the participants enrolled.

Exclusion Criteria

  • Participant has a history of surgically determined diagnosis of endometriosis (either via visual inspection or histopathology).
  • Participant is a female in a pre-menarchal or post-menopausal state (last menstrual period at least 1 year before Screening and no other biological or physiological cause can be identified) or has been rendered surgically menopausal (bilateral oophorectomy) for at least 6 months at Screening.
  • Participant is pregnant.
  • Participant has an active malignancy.
  • Participant is known to have tested positive for human immunodeficiency virus or hepatitis A, B, or C.
  • Participant has an active pelvic infection or other infections contraindicated for surgery.
  • Participant has participated (±3 months of study enrollment) in a clinical trial where an investigational drug was or is planned to be administered.
  • Participant has any general health or behavioral condition that, in the opinion of the investigator, should exclude the participant from participation.
