Participation Criteria
Eligibility Criteria
Ages Eligible for Study
Accepts Healthy Volunteers
Description
Inclusion Criteria:
- 75 patients with histologically verified pigmented skin tumours on areas of the body where scanning is feasible with both imaging systems
- Patients with clinically suspicious skin tumours, that are not yet biopsied, if the patient is willing to undergo a skin biopsy from the suspicious lesion
- > 18 years of age at baseline
- Legally competent, able to give verbal and written consent
- Communicate in Danish verbally as well as in writing
- Subject in good general health, is willing to participate and able to give informed consent and can comply with protocol requirements.
Exclusion Criteria:
- Individuals with other skin diseases in the skin area of interest
- Individuals who´s skin tumour is not accessible for imaging e.g. inside the ear, inside nostrils, on eyelids
- Subjects who will not undergo a skin biopsy after imaging of the suspicious skin tumour and who have not had a skin biopsy taken from the tumour prior to referral
- Pregnancy
- Women of child-bearing potential not using a contraceptive agent at the time of inclusion

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Other: Prospective non-blinded clinical study
All patients enrolled with with suspicious pigmented skin tumours will be scanned with reflectance confocal microscopy and photoacoustic imaging by an experienced examiner in a 30 minutes to 1-hour session.
Subsequently, material for RNA and lipid analysis is obtained from tape-stripped lesional skin at the bedside.
The skin tumors in patients enrolled will subsequently be treated according to hospital and national guidelines.
|
In vivo RCM will be used to diagnose pigmented tumours at a cellular level and provide information on skin microarchitecture.
MSOT detects skin chromophores as melanin, hemoglobin, water, collagen, and lipids, which will be included in analysis of diagnostic accuracies.
MSOT will also be used to measure tumour thickness; delineate tumour borders and analyze blood flow in blood vessels.
Potential diagnostic features from each lesion type will be tested.
RNA and lipid profiles from tape stripping results will be compared to imaging and histopathology diagnosis.

What is the study measuring?
Primary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Diagnostic accuracy. The primary objective i to test and compare two advanced optical imaging technologies, lipid and RNA tape stripping with regards to diagnostic accuracies for fast bedside diagnosis of pigmented skin tumours.
Time Frame: All patients will be scanned by an experienced examiner in a 30 minutes to 1 hour session.
|
Will be presented as sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values.
Tumor thickness measurements using MSOT will be measured and reported in millimeters.
The blood flow in dermal blood vessels will be measured quantitatively by MSOT and vascular morphology will be described qualitatively.
RCM images will be evaluated qualitatively regarding cellular changes, skin micromorphology and characteristic malignant melanoma features.
|
All patients will be scanned by an experienced examiner in a 30 minutes to 1 hour session.
|
Secondary Outcome Measures
Outcome Measure |
Measure Description |
Time Frame |
---|---|---|
Analysis of RNA molecules of surface cells from tape stripping
Time Frame: Up to 6 months
|
Examination of the expression of a total of 22 selected RNA molecules in suspicious skin tumours will be investigated by quantitative reverse-transcription methods with the use of the TaqMan method (Thermo Fisher Scientific).
|
Up to 6 months
|
Lipid analysis from tape-stripping
Time Frame: Up to 6 months
|
We will analyze lipids obtained by tape-stripping from surface cells in pigmented lesions by ex vivo spectroscopic near-infrared optical coherence tomography (OCT), performed at DTU: Dept of Photonics Lab Facilities.
|
Up to 6 months

IPD Plan Description
The study will be performed in accordance with ICH GCP Guidelines and Danish Health care authorities. It will be registered at The National Committee on Health Research Ethics, Danish Medicines Agency, and The Danish Data Protection Agency. Study conduction and reports are in accordance with GCP CPMP/ICH/135/95 and European Medicines Agency directive 2001/83/EC.
The study will be published in an international dermatological journal and presented at scientific conferences. Positive, negative and inconclusive results will be published and inconclusive results will be published at www.clinicaltrials.gov and www.clinicaltrialsregister.eu . Authorships are given according to the Vancouver guidelines.
