简要总结
The goal of this prospective observational study is to test the impact of addition of the GAAD score to imaging in patients with chronic liver disease eligible for HCC surveillance. The main questions it aims to answer are:
- Diagnostic accuracy of the GAAD score (cut-off 2.57 (3)) for detection of HCC (overall and by BCLC stage), expressed using sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value and positive predictive value.
- Change in GAAD score over time, and proportion of patients with a GAAD score above the cut-off over time in relation to potential confounding factors (e.g. age, bilirubin levels, presence of HCC).
1000 participants with chronic liver disease eligible for HCC surveillance will be enrolled. Data will be collected for 3 consecutive years after enrollment. As per clinical practice, patients will undergo standard bi-annual HCC surveillance comprising liver imaging with ultrasound (or CT or MRI based on previous investigations) and GAAD score assessment based on blood samples.

结局指标
主要结局
The diagnostic value of the GAAD score for HCC
时间窗: 6 months
The diagnostic value of the GAAD score for HCC will be expressed using sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values, both overall and for the subgroup of early stage (BCLC 0-A) HCC. The GAAD scores will be measured and documented separately for each visit. The diagnostic value of the GAAD score will be assessed for HCC diagnosed at the index visit (ie the visit at which the GAAD score was determined) and for HCC diagnosed on imaging performed at 6 months after the index visit.
次要结局
- Change in GAAD score over time in relation to confounding factors(3 years)
