Participant Flow

Recruitment Status: Completed / Enrolled: 285 patients, 358 specimens, drop-out 36 speciments Study Start: Jan 1, 2023 , Primary y Completion: Nov 27, 2024 First enrollment: Korea: Jan 1, 2023 Canada: Jul 5, 2024 Enrollment ended: Korea: Nov 27, 2024 / Canada: Oct 18, 2024 Analyzed: 322 specimens Study Completion Date (database lock and QC): 31 Dec 2024

This was a single-group, assessor-blinded study with no randomization or run-in period. Adults (≥19) with suspected brain tumors who consented were enrolled. A total of 285 Patient at four sites (three in Korea, one in Canada) joined; Each could yield up to three specimens, resulting in 322 analyzable samples. No comparator was used, so all proceeded to cCeLL - Ex vivo. No extra screening or washout was performed.

Evaluation of cCeLL-Ex Vivo Confocal Microscopy for Real-time Brain Tumor Diagnosis

Baseline characteristics by cohort

Baseline characteristics by cohort
Measure
CeLL - Ex Vivo Imaging
n=322 Specimens
All resected brain-tumor specimens were imaged in the operating room with cCeLL - Ex vivo, a confocal laser fluorescence endomicroscope that captures real-time, sub-cellular resolution images. Blinded expert pathologists interpreted the images on a secure workstation.
