  • Ages 1 year and older
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Known or suspected exposure or tick-bite from an endemic area prior to onset of symptoms

Who may be able to join

  • Arm 1 - Prospective symptomatic subjects, must have had a known or suspected exposure or tick-bite from an endemic area prior to onset of symptoms, and be currently exhibiting the following:
  • The physician determines that the subject has an expanding erythema migrans (EM) lesion or "bulls-eye rash" with evidence of clearing in the center and has requested 2 tier serological testing or prescribed a ≥10 day course of antibiotics such as doxycycline in subjects > 8 years old or amoxicillin, cefuroxime or doxycycline in subjects ≤8 years of age:
  • Or
  • The physician must observe current symptoms, including:
  • At least three (3) of the listed acute stage symptoms listed:
  • fatigue
Show all 24Show fewer
  • night sweats
  • chills
  • fever
  • headache
  • arthralgia
  • mildly stiff neck
  • myalgia i. one or more symptoms a. through h. are determined to be intermittent
  • Or,
  • at least one (1) of the following current conditions:
  • recurrent, brief attacks (weeks/months) of objective joint swelling in one or more joints, sometimes followed by chronic arthritis in one or a few joints,
  • lymphocytic meningitis
  • cranial neuritis (partial facial palsy and may be bilateral)
  • radiculoneuropathy
  • encephalomyelitis
  • acute onset of high-grade (2nd or 3rd degree) atrioventricular conduction defects that resolve in days to weeks, sometimes associated with myocarditis
  • In addition, the physician must be sufficiently confident in the possibility of Lyme disease to have requested two-tier diagnostic testing and/or prescribed a ≥10 day course of antibiotics such as doxycycline in patients > 8 years old or amoxicillin, cefuroxime or doxycycline in patients ≤8 years of age.
  • Arm 2 - Previously diagnosed with Lyme disease / confirmed case of Lyme disease: Within the past 16 months, a physician must have previously diagnosed the subject based on the presence of an EM rash or based on symptoms and confirmed by laboratory findings as outlined in the CDC two Tier Testing algorithm. A copy of the subject's medical record documenting the diagnosis must be obtained, and kept as source documentation at the enrolling site.
  • Arm 3 - Previously diagnosed with Lyme disease / confirmed case of Lyme disease: Within the past 17 to 50 months, a physician must have previously diagnosed the subject based on the presence of an EM rash or based on symptoms and confirmed by laboratory findings as outlined in the CDC two Tier Testing algorithm. A copy of the subject's medical record documenting the diagnosis must be obtained, and kept as source documentation at the enrolling site.

About this study

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the clinical performance of the Sofia® 2 analyzer and Sofia Lyme FIA test in the CLIA waived test environment in comparison to Comparator Method(s) and/or an FDA cleared predicate test(s) using matched finger-stick, whole blood and serum from symptomatic subjects.

Read the detailed description

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the clinical performance of the Sofia® 2 analyzer and Sofia Lyme FIA test in the CLIA waived test environment in comparison to Comparator Method(s) and/or an FDA cleared predicate test(s) using matched finger-stick, whole blood and serum from symptomatic subjects. The finger-stick and venous whole blood specimens will be tested by CLIA waived test operators. The matched plasma (from the leftover whole blood) and serum specimens will be sent to a separate reference laboratory for testing to compare the matched specimen using the Comparator Method(s) and/or an FDA-cleared predicate test(s). The results of this study may be used to support a 510(k) and/or CLIA-Waiver submission for testing whole blood sample types.

    IVD testing of whole blood or serum/plasma to aid in the detection of anti-B. burgdorferi IgG / IgM antibody

Study groups in NCT03238274
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Arm 1Arm 1 is a multi-site, single visit, prospective clinical study where subjects will be enrolled based on a physician's assessment of current Lyme specific symptoms from recent contact with a tick.
Receives: Device: Sofia 2 Lyme FIA testing
Arm 2Arm 2 will consist of subjects selected from a pool of patients that were previously determined to have Lyme disease either by the presence of the diagnostic rash (erythema migrans) or through laboratory findings and physician diagnosis based on patient symptoms. In this Arm the site may recruit by contacting subjects previously diagnosed with Lyme disease no longer than 16 months post diagnosis and no earlier than 1 week post diagnosis.

Arm 3Arm 3 will consist of subjects selected from a pool of patients that were previously determined to have Lyme disease either by the presence of the diagnostic rash (erythema migrans) or through laboratory findings and physician diagnosis based on patient symptoms. In this Arm the site may recruit by contacting subjects previously diagnosed with Lyme disease between 17 months and 50 months post diagnosis. For the subject to be enrolled, a physician must have diagnosed the subject to have Lyme disease based on clinical symptoms.
Receives: Device: Sofia 2 Lyme FIA testing

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Borrelia; Infection, Burgdorferi (Erythema Chronicum Migrans), run by Quidel Corporation at 11 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 24 inclusion and 1 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 20 Mar 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 11 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.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Detection of anti-B. burgdorferi IgG / IgM antibody (time frame: 15 minutes). 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 20 Mar 2018.
