Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this observational study is to determine the clinical validity of a deep neural network algorithm that utilizes protein biomarker detection of Endometriosis - "EndoCheck" - as an "aid in diagnosis" for endometriosis and to show validity as a diagnostic test

Description:

The objective is to confirm the clinical performance (sensitivity and specificity) of EndoCheck when compared to laparoscopic surgical assessment as an "aid in diagnosis" for endometriosis in subjects who present with chronic pelvic pain.

The primary endpoint of the study is to optimize the test to achieve the success criteria of at least 94% and 79% sensitivity and specificity, respectively. Secondary endpoints include examining the performance of the test in patients stratified by pain severity and other clinical factors.
