Evaluation of Oral Potentially Malignant Disorders (OPMDs) with STRATICYTE™

Recruiting
Conditions
Mouth Diseases
Interventions
Other: STRATICYTE™ Test
Registration Number
NCT05853783
Lead Sponsor
Proteocyte Diagnostics Inc.
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to validate the ability of the STRATICYTE™ predictive model to predict the transformation of oral potentially malignant disorders (OPMDs) to oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) in a retrospective cohort of patients who received biopsies.

Detailed Description

The study objectives are to:

1. Evaluate STRATICYTE™ sensitivity and specificity in a cohort of patients that meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria.

2. Identify patient and clinical characteristics influencing the sensitivity and specificity of the STRATICYTE™ model.

3. Estimate the correlation between STRATICYTE™ outcome and time to a positive diagnosis of oral cancer.

Target Recruitment
180
Inclusion Criteria
  • From the archive, any patient who presents with clinically evident oral lesions and biopsy-proven dysplasia (punch or scalpel biopsies; any grade or classification system)
  • Patients with initial oral lesions with epithelial atypia suspicious for neoplasia, with:
  • No histological evidence of cancer with clinical follow-up data for a period of at least five years; or
  • OSCC development (histologic or documented evidence of invasive cancer).
  • Patients who had archived biopsy tissue blocks of a previous oral lesion(s) meeting the above criteria and retained at the same clinical center.
Exclusion Criteria
  • Patients with oral lesions or dysplasia with no indication of OSCC development or follow-up data of less than five years in non-OSCC patients.
  • Patients diagnosed with oral epithelial dysplasia concomitant with OSCC at the time of the biopsy's original pathology report or a subsequent clinical note of cancer progression within three months post-biopsy.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Sensitivity and Specificity5 years

Standard measures of accuracy calculated using cross-tabulation of predicted risk category and confirmed cancer progression over a 5-year period from biopsy

Survival analysis5 years

Kaplan-Meier analyses to compare time to a positive diagnosis of oral cancer between patients/biopsies with a STRATICYTE™ classification of Low- and Elevated-Risk.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
AUC5 years

Area under the receiver operator curve

C-index (Harrell's)5 years

From all possible pairs of patients, compute the number of concordant and discordant pairs. Compute C-index as the proportion of all possible pairs that are concordant.
