About this study

The ARIES Flu Assay is a real-time PCR based qualitative assay for the direct detection and differentiation of respiratory viral nucleic acid in nasopharyngeal swabs specimens.

The objective of this study is to establish the diagnostic accuracy of ARIES Flu Assay.

Read the detailed description

The ARIES Flu Assay is a real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the direct detection and differentiation of respiratory viral nucleic acid in nasopharyngeal swabs specimens from patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and laboratory findings.

The objective is to establish the diagnostic accuracy of ARIES Flu Assay through a multi-site, method comparison on prospectively collected, left-over, and de-identified, nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Diagnostic accuracy will be expressed in terms of clinical sensitivity (or positive agreement) and specificity (or negative agreement).

What is being measured

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

  1. Diagnostic accuracy will be expressed in terms of clinical sensitivity (or positive agreement) and specificity (or negative agreement).

    Accuracy determinations (diagnostic sensitivity and specificity, positive and negative agreement) were based on the fraction of comparator positive (or negative) results which were also positive (or negative) by ARIES Flu assay.

    Measured: Within the first year of sample collection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Respiratory Tract Infection and Bronchitis, 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 3 inclusion and 2 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 2 Mar 2016. 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?

Results are not available in the source record.

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?

Diagnostic accuracy will be expressed in terms of clinical sensitivity (or positive agreement) and specificity (or negative agreement). (time frame: Within the first year of sample collection). 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 2 Mar 2016.
