Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Evaluation of the diagnostic performance of an algorithm developed to detect metabolic profiles specific of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis NASH and based on the reading of a blood sample's infrared spectra

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

The study is aimed at patients suffering from severe or morbid obesity and engaged in a bariatric surgery course. An additional blood sample will be taken upstream of the surgical procedure in the fasted subject. The metabolic fingerprint of the patient will be analyzed on serum from spectral data measured at most two hours after collection. The spectra obtained by the spectroscopy platform will be processed by algorithmic analysis to build the diagnostic test.

During the surgical procedure, a liver biopsy will be performed. The sample will be sent to the pathology laboratory for preparation and the slides will then be anonymized to be sent to a specialized laboratory for centralized reading by an expert pathologist. This expert will determine the diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) or non-NASH after microscopic analysis of the sample without having any information about the patient.

The two results obtained by the spectroscopic test and by means of the biopsy will then be compared to determine the diagnostic performance of the developped test (NASHMIR test).
