Study summary

To demonstrate the safety and effectiveness of the VIO device in obtaining in vivo images that show tissue features including epidermis, dermis, collagen, blood vessels, and/or pigment.

To demonstrate that the tissue features identified on the images obtained with the VIO device align with the corresponding pathology images procured from the skin biopsy.

To evaluate the ability of blinded readers to correctly identify tissue features on images obtained with the VIO device.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  1. The subject is between 18 and 99 years of age.
  2. The subject or Legally Authorized Representative (LAR) is able and willing to provide written .
  3. The subject is planning to undergo a routine skin .
  4. The subject is willing and able to remain still for periods of up to 3 minutes to allow for image capture.
  5. The subject or LAR has sufficient mental capacity to understand the informed consent form (ICF) and comply with the protocol requirements.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. The subject has a general health condition or systemic disease that in the opinion of the physician, precludes them from trial participation.
  2. The subject has a known allergy or increased skin sensitivity to silicone, adhesives, or glycerin.
  3. The subject's lesion targeted for :

    1. Is located on the palms of the hands, soles of the feet, fingernails, or toenails.
    2. Has dense hair that will not be removed prior to the skin biopsy.
    3. Has abraded or ulcerated skin with or without discharge.
    4. Is associated with a wound or skin condition that in the opinion of the physician precludes them from participation
    5. Is located in mucosal tissue (i.e., oral, nasal, etc.).
    6. Is on tattooed skin.
    7. Is on a skin formation too tortuous for the device to access (e.g., skin tags.)
    8. Is located in the periorbital region or directly on the eyelid.

Terms in these criteria, in plain language(4)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

Biopsy and archival tissue

A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.

Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.

Clinically significant

Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.

Investigational drug or device

A drug or device being studied in a clinical trial.

It may be new, or already approved and being studied for another use, dose or form. Criteria often leave out people who took part in another study of one within a recent period, commonly 30 days or five half-lives.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Comparative Reader Percentage Agreement

    This outcome measured the % agreement and validation of specific tissue features on VIO images in comparison to gold standard pathology images between N=3 Comparative Readers (CRs). "CRs" were study investigators that were selected based on their experience and medical qualifications. 100% agreement and validation between the CRs was required to proceed to the next study phase.

    Time frame: 8 months post-enrollment completion

  2. Blinded Reader Percentage Agreement

    This outcome measured the % agreement between N=3 Blinded Readers (BRs) of their assessment of VIO images in comparison to the answer key developed from the Comparative Reader validation. "BRs" were study investigators that were selected based on their experience and medical qualifications. \>90% agreement was required to proceed to the next study phase.

    Time frame: 8 months post-enrollment completion

  3. Safety / Adverse Events

    Safety will be assessed as the incidence of all adverse events (analyzed by severity, seriousness, and relationship to the device and procedure) that occur through the 7-day follow-up period.

    Time frame: 7 +/- 3 days after VIO imaging

Secondary outcomes

  1. Inter-Reader Percentage Agreement

    This outcome measured the inter-reader % agreement between N=3 Blinded Readers (BRs) during image analysis. Minimum 90% agreement was required to proceed to the next study phase.

    Time frame: 8 months post-enrollment completion

  2. Evaluation of Secondary Histopathology Characteristics

    This outcome measured the % agreement between N=3 Blinded Readers (BRs) of their assessment of secondary histopathology characteristics in VIO images in comparison to the answer key developed from the Comparative Reader validation. \>90% agreement was required to proceed to the next study phase.

    Time frame: 8 months post-enrollment completion
