About this study

Official title: A Randomized, Double-blind, Equivalence Study of Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative in Comparison With a Reference Standard Tuberculin Purified Protein Derivative (PPD-S2) for Detection of Tuberculosis in Subjects With a Confirmed Diagnosis of Tuberculosis.

A study to determine bioequivalence of PPD material versus Reference Standard.

Read the detailed description

This study is a multicenter, double-blind, active-controlled parallel-group study to determine the bioequivalence of newly produced PPD material versus PPD-S2 in the detection of male and female subjects with current or previously diagnosed intrathoracic Mtb infection, as documented by a positive culture for Mtb (preferred method), by their primary care or attending physician and/or by the subject's current or prior medical records (ie, sensitivity determination).

Being tested
To compare new PPD to reference standard material, Reference standard

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing To compare new PPD to reference standard material and Reference standard in people with Tuberculosis Identification., run by JHP Pharmaceuticals LLC.

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 6 inclusion and 5 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2013. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. 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 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Arlene Lund, B.Sc. (919-985-3220, arlene.lund@incresearch.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Compare new PPD to Reference Standard (time frame: 72 hours). 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 25 Feb 2013.
