Abstract | PURPOSE: We have shown that "Click-to-sense" (CTS) assay based on the visualization of cancer cells by fluorescence probe targeted for acrolein is useful for differentiating between the malignant and benign lesions of the breast. In the present study, we aimed to apply CTS assay to the examination of the simulated surgical margins, being compared with frozen section (FS) analysis. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN: The simulated surgical margin samples (n = 300) were obtained from 1 to 2 cm distant sites from the tumor margin in the mastectomy specimens of breast cancer patients, and divided into the training (n = 150) and validation (n = 150) set. The samples were subjected to CTS assay, subsequently to FS analysis and finally to permanent section (PS) analysis. RESULTS: Diagnostic accuracy of the CTS assay and FS analysis was evaluated in the examination of the simulated surgical margin status finally determined by the PS analysis. In the training set, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy was 89.3%, 98.4%, and 96.7% for the CTS assay and 89.3%, 98.4%, and 96.7% for the FS analysis. In the validation set, sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy was 93.3%, 98.3%, and 97.3% for the CTS assay, and 93.3%, 99.2%, and 98.0% for the FS analysis. CONCLUSIONS:
