About this study

Official title: Evaluation of ARCHITECT HIV Ag/Ab Combo Assay

To test blood specimens using a new investigational test that detects antigen and antibody to human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Results will be compared to an approved HIV antibody test and supplemental testing performed to determine HIV status.

Read the detailed description

All specimens collected under separate specimen collection protocols or obtained from specimen suppliers will be provided to the clinical sites performing the investigational HIV test.

This includes 6252 specimens collected from normal healthy individuals (7B5-02-05Z01-01: Collection of Specimens Used in Abbott Laboratories In Vitro Diagnostic HIV and Hepatitis Assays Clinical Studies)and from specimen suppliers. 588 specimens from HIV-infected pediatric subjects and 448 pregnant females at risk for HIV infection collected under protocol (7B5-02-05Z01-02: Collection of Pediatric and Pregnant Female Specimens Used in the Abbott Laboratories In Vitro Diagnostic HIV Assay)and from specimen suppliers. All specimens were previously collected and frozen, except for a subset of 586 specimens from normal healthy population and 55 specimen from pregnant females at risk for HIV infection which were collected under separate specimen collection protocols and tested as fresh specimens during the study.

In addition, 83 specimens that were HIV antigen positive, 1121 specimens that were HIV-1 antibody positive, 201 specimens that were HIV-2 antibody positive, and 1409 specimens from US at risk for HIV infection or from HIV-2 endemic area were all obtained from specimen suppliers, except for 11 pediatric specimens collected under a separate protocol (7B5-02-05Z01-02: Collection of Pediatric and Pregnant Female Specimens Used in the Abbott Laboratories In Vitro Diagnostic HIV Assay).

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • ARCHITECT HIV Ag/Ab ComboDevice

    Test blood samples with investigational HIV assay. If results for specimens from the normal healthy population or pregnant female population at risk for HIV infection are reactive, samples will be tested with supplemental HIV assays. If all supplemental HIV assays are negative, subject will be asked to return for a follow-up blood draw.

  • ARCHITECT HIV Ag/Ab ComboDevice

    Test blood samples with investigational HIV assay. If results for specimens from the at risk population are reactive, samples will be tested with supplemental HIV assays. If all supplemental HIV assays are negative, subject will be asked to return for a follow-up blood draw when possible.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Clinical Specificity in Population at Low Risk for HIV Infection

    HIV status was determined by the results of the HIV comparator assay, HIV-1 Western blot, HIV-2 Western blot, and HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) test.

    Measured: 3 months

  2. Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Clinical Sensitivity in HIV Positive Specimens

    Positive HIV status was determined by the results of the HIV-1 Western blot, HIV-2 Western blot, and/or HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) test.

    Measured: 3 months

  3. Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Specificity and Sensitivity in Pregnant Female Population

    HIV status was determined by the results of the HIV comparator assay, HIV-1 Western blot, HIV-2 Western blot, and HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) test.

    Measured: 3 months

  4. Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Specificity and Sensitivity in Pediatric Population (From 2 up to 21 Years of Age)

    HIV status was determined by the results of the HIV comparator assay, HIV-1 Western blot, HIV-2 Western blot, and HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) test.

    Measured: 3 months

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Reactivity of Architect HIV Combo in Increased HIV Risk Populations

    Reactivity was determined by the results of the Architect HIV Ag/Ab Combo assay and supplemental testing by HIV-1 Western blot, HIV-2 Western blot, and HIV-1 ribonucleic acid (RNA) test.

    Measured: 3 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 3 study testing ARCHITECT HIV Ag/Ab Combo in people with Human Immunodeficiency Viruses, run by Abbott Diagnostics Division at 13 sites in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 7 inclusion and 7 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Jul 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 13 sites in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 3 studies compare the treatment with the current standard treatment or a placebo in a large group, to confirm how well it works and watch for side effects.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 19 Aug 2010). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Architect HIV Combo Test Data for Clinical Specificity in Population at Low Risk for HIV Infection (time frame: 3 months). The study lists 4 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 12 Jul 2011.
