About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Clinical Evaluation Study to Determine the External Site Accuracy of Total Immunoglobulin E Measurement Using a Novel Point of Care Test Device Compared to a Reference Method in Atopic Subjects

The purpose of this study is to determine the accuracy of the Novel point of care test (POCT) total IgE assay in atopic patients.

120 patients with atopic conditions and approximately 40 healthy subjects will be enrolled. Fingerstick capillary blood samples will be collected and tested in the POCT device. Venous samples will be collected and sent to a reference laboratory for measurement of serum total IgE using the reference immunoassay method.

Receives: Procedure: Blood sample; Device: POCT device

What is being measured

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

  1. Total IgE concentration

    Total IgE concentration in capillary blood measured with the POCT device at Day 0 or Day 1 from enrollment.

    Total IgE concentration in venous blood measured with the reference method at Day 0 or Day 1 from enrollment.

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1 (Visit 2: Blood sampling)

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Device usability questionnaire response

    Device usability assessment of the POCT device as per operators at the completion of the study.

    Measured: Day 0 or Day 1 (Visit 2: Blood sampling)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Blood sample and POCT device in people with Atopic Asthma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 12 sites in 5 countries.

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 7 inclusion and 3 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 15 Nov 2016. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 12 sites in Italy, United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands, Spain. 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.

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?

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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total IgE concentration (time frame: Day 0 or Day 1 (Visit 2: Blood sampling)). 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 15 Nov 2016.
