About this study

Official title: Pilot Study Evaluating the Use of Simultaneous HBV, HCV, and HIV Rapid Tests As a Tool for Screening and Access to Care Among At-Risk Populations

This is a pilot, monocentric, prospective, randomized control trial looking at the use of rapid tests as a part of normal care. The investigators will be testing for hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Testing will be proposed to all persons seeking care at the Centre d'Accueil, de Soins et d'Orientation from the organization Médecin du Monde (CASO, MDM).

Infection status of participants will be determined by either the standard test (ELISA) or rapid test. The choice between tests will be determined randomly.

The overall goal is to determine the general acceptability and feasibility of rapid tests and to see if they can help individuals increase their awareness of infection status when compared to longer, routine methods of testing. In addition, results from these tests will allow the medical doctor to guide participants to appropriate care. All positive tests will be confirmed at a specialized hospital (Hôptial Saint-Antoine, Paris, France) and health-specific information will be obtained four months after testing.

What participants receive

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

  • ELISAOther

    Enzyme-linked immuno-assay (ELISA) will be used to determine hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), anti-HBsAg antibody (anti-HBs Ab), anti-HCV antibody, and anti-HIV antibody status. Results will be given after test results are available (8-10 days).

  • Rapid TestOther

    Also called VIKIA®, Biomerieux, Marcy-l'Étoile, France, OraQuick® HCV Rapid Antibody Test, OraSure Technologies, Inc., Bethlehem, PA, USA

    A rapid test will be performed to determine the subjects' hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg, using VIKIA®), anti-HCV antibody (HCV, using OraQuick®), and anti-HIV antibody (HIV, using VIKIA®) status. Results will be given the same day.

What is being measured

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

  1. Accessibility of Testing Results

    The number of individuals who obtained test results for HBV, HCV, and/or HIV divided by the total number of tested individuals.

    Measured: Evaluated once, up to 4 months after testing

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Access to Care

    The number of individuals seeking specialized care with a complete evaluation of disease severity divided by the total number of seropositive individuals.

    Measured: Evaluated once, up to 4 months after testing

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing ELISA and Rapid Test in people with HIV and Hepatitis B, run by Institut de Médecine et d'Epidémiologie Appliquée - Fondation Internationale Léon M'Ba at 1 site in France.

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 13 Dec 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. 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?

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?

Accessibility of Testing Results (time frame: Evaluated once, up to 4 months after testing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT01790633, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 13 Dec 2016.
