Blood test to identify patients at high risk for breast cancer
Official title: A Multi-center, Single Arm, Prospective Exploratory in Vitro Diagnostic Devices Clinical Performance Study to Evaluate of in Vitro Diagnostic Devices for Auxiliary Diagnosis That Classifies High-risk and Low Risk Patients With Breast Cancer by Analyzing Surface-enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS) Profiles of Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) Extracted From Human Plasma Using Artificial Intelligence
Run by EXoPERT · NCT06672302 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a new blood test that uses advanced technology to see if it can help identify women at high risk for breast cancer.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates for this study are adult females aged 40 and older who have been diagnosed with breast cancer and fall into BI-RADS categories 4, 5, or 6.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who do not have breast cancer or those who are younger than 40 years old may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This clinical trial aims to develop and validate a blood-based diagnostic device that classifies patients as high or low risk for breast cancer using Raman spectroscopy and artificial intelligence. The device analyzes extracellular vesicles in blood samples to assist in the differential diagnosis of breast cancer risk. By confirming the clinical efficacy and safety of this device, the study seeks to improve early detection and diagnosis of breast cancer, which is crucial for effective treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this device could lead to earlier and more accurate identification of patients at high risk for breast cancer, potentially improving treatment outcomes.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies utilizing liquid biopsy and AI for cancer diagnosis have shown promise, indicating potential for success in this novel approach.
