About this study

Official title: Study to Establish the Ability of the Chembio Diagnostics Systems, Inc. DPP HIV 1/2 Rapid Test to Qualitatively Detect the Presence of Antibodies Against HIV-1 in Oral Fluid, Whole Blood (Capillary and Venous), Serum and Plasma

This study has been designed to evaluate the performance of the Chembio Diagnostics Systems, Inc. DPP® HIV 1/2 rapid test. The device is intended to qualitatively detect the presence of antibodies against HIV-1/2 in oral fluid, whole blood (capillary and venous), serum or plasma. This study will assess the DPP® HIV 1/2 Screen assay's ability to detect HIV-1.

    For the detection of antibodies to HIV in serum, plasma, blood and oral fluid

Study groups in NCT01032902
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Known HIV positivePatients from HIV clinics with documented infections
Receives: Device: In Vitro Diagnostic Device
High Risk for Infection with HIVPatients from defined HIV high-risk populations - i.e. intravenous drug users, or patients presenting with symptoms of sexually transmitted disease.
Receives: Device: In Vitro Diagnostic Device
Low-Risk for Infection with HIVIndividuals not known to belong to any of the defined high-risk groups - i.e. "healthy patients" presenting for routine physicals or other unrelated non-life threatening illnesses, or individuals from a general low risk population such as students, employees of academic or other institutions, etc…
Receives: Device: In Vitro Diagnostic Device

What is being measured

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

  1. The device detects HIV-1 antibodies in a variety of sample matrices: capillary whole blood, venous whole blood (with EDTA or heparin anticoagulant), oral fluid, serum and plasma (with EDTA or heparin anticoagulant).

    Measured: 20 minutes

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. The device provides a qualitative screen for the detection of antibodies to HIV-1 compared to an FDA approved HIV-1/2 EIA, with sensitivity and specificity equal to or greater than 98% at the lower 95% confidence interval boundary.

    Measured: 20 minutes

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of HIV Infections, run by Chembio Diagnostic Systems, Inc. at 5 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 4 inclusion and 4 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 30 Apr 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 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.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

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?

The device detects HIV-1 antibodies in a variety of sample matrices: capillary whole blood, venous whole blood (with EDTA or heparin anticoagulant), oral fluid, serum and plasma (with EDTA or heparin anticoagulant). (time frame: 20 minutes). 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 30 Apr 2012.
