Trial summary

The objective of this multi-center clinical study is to demonstrate that the APTIMA(R) Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis (CT; "ACT Assay"), which is cleared for use on the TIGRIS DTS (Direct Transfer) System ("TIGRIS System"), can be tested on the PANTHER System. Read more about this study

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 14 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Male and Females at least 14 years of age at the time of informed consent and sexually active.

Who may be able to join

  • The subject is at least 14 years of age at the time of informed consent and is sexually active
  • The subject reports symptoms consistent with a suspected STD such as abnormal discharge, genital itching, pain/discomfort during sexual intercourse or urination, and/or lower abdominal discomfort.
  • If the subject is asymptomatic, the subject is known to be partners with, or a contact of, a person with a confirmed or suspected STD(s), is undergoing screening evaluation for a possible STD(s), and/or is scheduled for a routine exam that may include a pelvic exam
  • The subject and/or legally authorized representative is willing to undergo the informed consent process prior to study participation (a minor will need the documented consent of his/her parent or legal guardian, unless the site has an IRBapproved waiver for parental consent for minors)

Who cannot join

  • A potential subject will be ineligible for clinical trial enrollment if the subject, clinician, or medical record reports any of the following:
  • The subject took antibiotic medications within the last 21 days
  • The subject is underage (as defined by the IRB or state law), without the documented consent of her/his parent or legal guardian (exception: sites that have an IRBapproved waiver for parental consent for minors)
  • The subject is determined by the investigator to be medically unsuitable for participation in this study (eg, medical history of concurrent illness that could result in an unacceptable risk to the subject) Concurrent participation in other clinical study(ies) may be acceptable, with approval by the investigator and sponsor.

About this study

The objective of this multi-center clinical study is to demonstrate that the APTIMA(R) Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis (CT; "ACT Assay"), which is cleared for use on the TIGRIS DTS (Direct Transfer) System ("TIGRIS System"), can be tested on the PANTHER System. The intended use of the ACT Assay will be unchanged except for the inclusion of its use with the PANTHER System. ACT Assay performance on the PANTHER System is comparable to performance on the TIGRIS System.

Read the detailed description

This protocol was withdrawn from clinical trials.gov because samples collected under this protocol were not tested per protocol using the Gen-Probe APTIMA(R) CT (Chlamydia trachomatis) Assay. Instead, testing was conducted and results were generated with the Gen-Probe APTIMA(R) Combo 2 Assay (for Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae). See Protocol Identification AC2PS-US11-001 (NCT01733069) for results. This action was recommended by the RRS team per their email to me on 8 February 2013.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Chlamydia Trachomatis, run by Gen-Probe, Incorporated at 7 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: withdrawn, as of the sponsor's last update on 12 Mar 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 7 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 was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

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?

Positive and Negative Percent Agreement Using the TIGRIS Instrument as a Reference (time frame: approximately one year). 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 Mar 2013.
