Clinical Trial Summary

Evaluate the feasibility of the Liver Incyte system for liver elasticity measurement in healthy volunteers and patients with liver fibrosis. To evaluate the discriminatory ability of elasticity measurements generated by Liver Incyte for healthy volunteers versus patients with liver fibrosis in comparison to FibroScan measurements.


Description:

This will be a prospective, open label, feasibility and validation study of the Liver Incyte system in patients with liver fibrosis (Cohort 1, n = 150) and healthy volunteers (Cohort 2, n = 50), for a total of 200 participants. The physician operator of the FibroScan, and the operator of the Shear wave vibro-elastography (S-WAVE) system, will not be blinded to the clinical diagnoses of the patients. All patients will undergo the testing with both FibroScan and Liver Incyte system at a single in-clinic visit. The liver stiffness of each participant will be assessed with the Liver Incyte Model B device and with FibroScan. The elasticity measurements from these two devices will be the primary outcome measure. The Liver Incyte system is designed as two models with differences in the ultrasound components only, description of the two models is below. Two sub-studies are included in this design as exploratory objectives. Model B will be utilized at all study sites and all study participants. Participants at the LAIR study site will also be evaluated using Model A, as well as Model B, for verification and to confirm consistency between designs. Participants will have the option to participate in the Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) and Proton Density Fat Fraction (PDFF) portion of the study. MRE/PDFF is an optional procedure, which makes up a sub-study for this trial, this would require approximately 1 hour, and is open to any participant who is willing and has time for the extra study visit. The results of the MRE/PDFF sub-study will be included as an exploratory objective.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Other Agreement between Liver Incytes and MRI elastography measurements Elasticity measurements from Liver Incyte and MRE will be compared using a concordance correlation coefficient and associated 95% confidence intervals. A Spearman correlation coefficient and 95% confidence intervals will also be calculated. As in the analysis for the Primary Objective, an ROC curve will be constructed and AUCs for differentiating healthy versus fibrotic (HVC/NASH) will be calculated. 6 months
Other Correlation between Liver Incytes and MRI elastography measurements Steatosis measurements from Liver Incyte, Fibroscan (CAP), and MRI (PDFF) will be compared using a concordance correlation coefficient and associated 95% confidence intervals. A Spearman correlation coefficient and 95% confidence intervals will also be calculated. An ROC curve will be constructed and AUCs for differentiating healthy versus fibrotic (HCV/NASH) will be calculated. 6 months
Primary Discrimination of healthy from patients with liver fibrosis The discriminatory ability of elasticity measurements generated by Liver Incyte for healthy volunteers versus patients with liver fibrosis in comparison to FibroScan measurements.
An receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve using final Liver Incyte elasticity measurement as a predictor of healthy versus fibrotic (HCV/NASH) will be constructed with accompanying 95% confidence interval for the area under the curve (AUC). The AUC and 95% confidence intervals for the FibroScan device will be calculated.
6 months
Secondary Safety of the device as measured by rate of adverse events The safety and tolerability of the Liver Incyte system for liver elasticity measurement in healthy volunteers and patients with liver fibrosis
Rate of adverse events when using the investigational device will be reported.
