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 1 day to 7 days
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Child

Study population: Specimens will be derived from prospectively collected neonatal specimens and banked neonatal specimens originating from hospitals, birthing centers, and/or clinics. Newborn screening is currently performed on all neonates; there is no selection criterion for subjects.

Who may be able to join

  • The dried blood spot specimen was collected on an FDA-cleared collection paper that has not yet passed its expiration dating.
  • Prospective specimens used in this study should only be those collected for the first time from a subject, or initial collection specimens.

Who cannot join

  • Collected within 24 hours of birth.
  • Specimens stored at ambient temperature for greater than 14 days prior to testing.
  • The specimen DBS appears diluted.
  • The specimen DBS shows evidence of clotting, caking, layering or serum rings.
  • The DBS punched disks were punched too close to the edge of the blood spot or show printed markings.
  • The specimen or collection card was contaminated with fecal material.
  • Non-eluting blood spot due to deterioration of sample caused by exposure to heat and humidity.

About this study

Official title: Clinical Evaluation of the xMAP® NeoPlex4™ Assay for Detection of T4, TSH, 17-OHP and IRT Using the NeoPlex System

The purpose of this study is to assess the agreement of clinical performance between the proposed NeoPlex 4 assay and NeoPlex System and the comparator devices in clinical use in newborn screening programs for detection of T4, TSH, 17-OHP and IRT.

Read the detailed description

The proposed (investigational) NeoPlex4 assay measures levels of thyroxine (T4), thyrotropin (hTSH), 17-alpha-OH-progesterone (17-OHP) and immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT) from dried blood specimens (DBS) collected from neonates to screen for congenital hypothyroidism (CH), congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) and cystic fibrosis (CF). The Clinical Evaluation of the xMAP® NeoPlex4™ Assay (NeoPlex4) for Detection of T4, TSH, 17-OHP and IRT using the NeoPlex System is a multi-center method concordance study on a combination of prospectively collected neonatal dried blood spots and pre-selected archived frozen dried blood spots that have been demonstrated to be positive for 17-OHP (CAH), IRT (CF), and T4 or TSH (CH). The study will be conducted at selected sites that routinely perform newborn screening testing in the United States.

General Newborn Population-ProspectiveSpecimens prospectively collected in the course of routine newborn screening originating from hospitals, birthing centers, and/or clinics.
Newborn Specimens-Confirmed PositiveBanked confirmed positive specimens that were originally collected as part of the newborn screening program, but when found to screen positive for a disease, were followed up clinically to definitively diagnose the subject with the disease (CF, CAH or CH). Follow up results were reported to the sites by the treating clinicians.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Adrenal Hyperplasia, Congenital and Congenital Hypothyroidism, run by Luminex Corporation at 3 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 2 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 17 Aug 2012. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 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.

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 17 Aug 2012; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 7 Nov 2026.
