About this study

Official title: A Prospective Cross-Sectional Study to Evaluate Diagnostic Sensitivity and Specificity of iStatis HBsAg Test at the Point-Of-Care Sites

A prospective cross-sectional study in which surgically non-invasive sample-taking is done only for the purpose of the study. Capillary (fingerstick) whole blood and EDTA venipuncture whole blood are collected by a healthcare professional. The collected samples of capillary and EDTA whole blood are tested on iStatis and EDTA whole blood sample will be processed to obtain serum and plasma samples to be tested on the iStatis. An aliquot of the collected serum sample will be shipped to the central laboratory for confirmatory testing. The results from iStatis HBsAg Test results will not be used for patient management decisions.

Read the detailed description

From each enrolled patient, a total of 2 different blood samples (capillary and venous whole blood) will be collected, processed, and categorized under the following categories:

  • Sample 1: 50μL of Capillary (fingerstick) (see section 8.6.2) Sample 2: 16ml of Venous whole blood (further extraction of serum, and plasma samples) (see section 8.6.2) Sample 1 consisting of capillary (fingerstick) and Sample 2 venous whole blood sample will be tested on iStatis HBsAg Test on site according to the 'Test Procedure' described in the Instructions for Use (IFU) supplied with the reagents. Sample 2 containing of 1 EDTA and SST venous whole blood samples will be separately processed to obtain plasma and serum samples, respectively, and will be tested onsite on the iStatis. An aliquot of the serum sample stored and frozen at -20ᵒC at the testing site will be transferred to the central laboratory to establish further reference testing. Upon arrival of the sample, it will undergo an initial test using DiaSorin Liaison XL Murex HBsAg Quant Assay, REF. [310250] following the IFU of this reference assay. If the first run of the assay yields a "non-reactive/Negative" result, it will be reported as such. However, if the sample is "Reactive/Positive" in the first run of the assay testing, it will be retested on the same assay in duplicate, following the manufacturer's instructions. A final "Reactive/Positive" result means that at least one of the duplicate repeat tests was reactive, if neither of the duplicate repeat tests yields a reactive results, the final report in the DiaSorin Liaison XL Murex HBsAg Quant Assay requires three tests to confirm. Samples with a reportable "Reactive/Positive" result in the DiaSorin Liaison XL Murex HBsAg Quant Assay will undergo further testing using DiaSorin Murex HBsAg Confirmatory assay, REF. [9F80-01]. A "Reactive/Positive" result in this test will confirm the presence of the relevant marker.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing iStatis HBsAg Test in people with Hepatitis B and Hepatitis B Infection, run by bioLytical Laboratories at 1 site in Australia.

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 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 21 Feb 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Australia. 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?

Performance (time frame: 3 Months). 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 21 Feb 2025.
