About this study

Official title: Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay (Q27001) Clinical Performance Study Plan

Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 moderate complexity PCR test performance evaluation

Read the detailed description

The Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay is a real-time PCR test intended for use on the Q-POC instrument for the qualitative detection of nucleic acids from Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), in nasal mid-turbinate swabs (MTSW) obtained from individuals suspected of COVID-19 by their healthcare provider. Testing is limited to laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform high complexity or moderate complexity tests.

The Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay is intended for use by laboratory personnel who have received specific training on the use of the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay in conjunction with the Q-POC instrument (Q29001).

What participants receive

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

  • RT-PCR TestDiagnostic test

    High sensitivity RT-PCR COVID-19 Test. A healthcare professional will take a sample per subject for the comparator test, following the manufacturer's Instructions For Use (IFU) in one nostril.

  • Real-time PCR TestDiagnostic test

    Also called Q-POC

    Mid-turbinate nasal swab samples will be taken from the opposite nostril that was not swabbed for the comparator sample using Copan FLOQ swabs and placed into MSwab buffer. In instances where opposite nostrils cannot be swabbed for both the comparator and the candidate tests, a 15-minute waiting period to allow for viral reloading will occur before collecting the candidate test sample.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Subjects 18+ years of ageExperimentalA healthcare professional will take a sample per subject for the comparator test, following the manufacturer's (IFU) in one nostril. Mid-turbinate swab samples will be taken from the opposite nostril using Copan FLOQ Swabs and placed into MSwab buffer (Q14-116-P02), for the candidate test. In instances where opposite nostrils cannot be swabbed for both the comparator and the test under investigation, a 15-minute wait period to allow for viral reloading must occur between collecting both the comparator and the test samples on the same nostril. Comparator RT-PCR samples will be shipped overnight with ice packs and processed for testing within 48 hours of collection. Candidate test samples will tested as soon as possible following collection, however if time is required between specimen collection and testing, the samples must be stored at 2-8 °C for up to 24 hours. Test samples must also be stored at 2-8 °C whilst the Q-POC test is running.

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants With Positive Results on Both the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay and the RT-PCR Comparator Test

    The acceptance criteria for this study is Positive Percent Agreement (PPA) greater than or equal to 95% in a comparison between the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 assay and the RT-PCR comparator test results

    Measured: One hour

  2. Number of Participants With Negative Results on Both the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay and the RT-PCR Comparator Test

    The acceptance criteria for this study is a Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) greater than or equal to 98% in a comparison between the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 assay and the RT-PCR comparator test results.

    Measured: One hour

Model description
This is a prospective clinical study enrolling adult patients with signs and symptoms that are consistent with SARS-CoV-2. Positive and negative specimens will be run on the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay in comparison with an FDA-approved reference standard to calculate both the positive percent agreement (PPA, or sensitivity) and the negative percent agreement (NPA, or specificity)

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing RT-PCR Test and Real-time PCR Test in people with COVID-19, run by QuantuMDx Group Ltd 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 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 28 Feb 2024. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 28 Feb 2024). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Positive Results on Both the Q-POC SARS-CoV-2 Assay and the RT-PCR Comparator Test (time frame: One hour). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. 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 28 Feb 2024.
