About this trial

This nationwide, multicenter, prospective, single-arm interventional feasibility study evaluates the Enzeavour Pancreatic Cancer assay in routine health checkups and cancer screening in Japan. Approximately 10,000 asymptomatic adults will be enrolled. Participants with an Enzeavour Score above 0.369 will undergo diagnostic work-up as clinically indicated. The primary outcome is pancreatic cancer detection rate within 12 months after the index blood draw, and the secondary outcome is positive predictive value.

Eligibility criteria

This trial accepts healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Asymptomatic adults attending participating facilities for routine health checkups, organized cancer screening, or both

Able to understand the study procedures and provide written informed consent before enrollment

Disqualifiers

Documented clinical history of pancreatic cancer

Considered unable or unwilling to undergo any required diagnostic imaging modality (MRCP, EUS, or contrast-enhanced CT) after a positive index test result

Any medical, psychological, or social condition that, in the opinion of the principal investigator at each participating site, makes participation inappropriate or compromises study integrity

Trial design

Design model

Single group

Treatments tested in this trial

  • Enzeavour Pancreatic Cancer Assay

    Diagnostic test

    A blood-based diagnostic assay that quantifies the activity of three specific enzymes at a single-molecule level. Four biomarkers derived from these measurements are integrated into a composite Enzeavour Score using a predefined discriminant function. Participants with a score above the pre-specified cut-off of 0.369 are considered test-positive and referred for diagnostic work-up.

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Pancreatic Cancer Detection Rate

The proportion of all enrolled participants diagnosed with pancreatic cancer within 12 months of the index blood draw. A confirmed case is defined as pancreatic cancer confirmed histopathologically or cytologically, or clinically diagnosed based on multidisciplinary team judgment.

Time frame
Within 12 months after the index blood draw

Secondary outcomes

1

Positive Predictive Value of the Enzeavour Assay

The proportion of participants with a positive index test result, defined as an Enzeavour Score greater than 0.369, who are subsequently diagnosed with histopathologically confirmed pancreatic cancer within 12 months after the index blood draw.

Time frame
Within 12 months after the index blood draw

Other outcomes

1

Detection Rates of Other Pancreatic Diseases and High-Risk Radiological Findings

Descriptive analysis of detection rates for various pancreatic diseases and high-risk radiological findings identified during diagnostic work-up and follow-up.

Time frame
Within 12 months after the index blood draw
2

Comparison With Conventional Tumor Markers

Comparison of positivity rates and detection rates between the Enzeavour assay and conventional tumor markers, including CA19-9, overall and within the Enzeavour-positive subgroup.

Time frame
Baseline through 12 months
3

Imaging Correlates of Assay Results

Comparative analysis of MRCP findings according to assay status and retrospective re-evaluation of baseline imaging in confirmed cancer cases.

Time frame
Baseline through 12 months
4

Preliminary Longitudinal Performance Measures

Descriptive estimation of specificity and incidence rates for pancreatic and extra-pancreatic malignancies during follow-up.

Time frame
365 days after the index blood draw
