Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages Any age
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Child, Adult, Older adult

Study population: Human males and females of varying ages and geographical locations where dengue fever is endemic. We will use retrospective (archived) and prospective human serum samples. Some study sites will only use retrospective (archived) serum samples not collected specifically for this study and not individually identifiable to the Investigators. These samples will fall under the category of "leftover" specimens as described by FDA guidance. These archived samples will have been collected from patients within 7 days after onset of symptoms consistent with Dengue infection. In addition paired prospective samples will be collected in compliance with human subject protection. The prospective samples will be collected from patients with symptoms consistent with Dengue infection. The first sample will be collected within the first 7 days of symptom onset; the second sample will be collected: 1) at least seven days later; and 2) between the 10th and 21st day of symptom onset.

Who may be able to join

  • All age groups and both sexes.
  • Initial serum samples must be collected within 1- 7 days of onset of symptoms consistent with Dengue virus infection.
  • Information must be available about symptoms, age, and sex of patient from which samples are collected.
  • The location of sample collection must be recorded.
  • Archived samples that have been sent to reference labs for dengue or flavivirus testing should be considered for inclusion as test specimens in this study. If these specimens are included in this study, then they must have a documented history that the specimen was obtained within the first 7 days of onset of subject symptoms consistent with dengue infection.

Who cannot join

  • Archived samples with linked personal identifiers or any sample for which personal information can be discovered.
  • Prospective samples from nursing home residents; inmates/subjects in police custody; participants who are unable to understand verbal or written local language in which a certified translation of the informed consent is available, or requires a Legal Authorized Representative (LAR) for consent.
  • Subject serum specimens that have undergone more than 2 freeze-thaw cycles or that have not been stored frozen.

About this study

Official title: Determination of Estimated Sensitivity for Dengue NS1 ELISAs

This study is a multi-site trial assessing the sensitivity of DENV Detect™ NS1 ELISA versus standard reference tests (e.g. PCR or viral culture) for dengue diagnosis in the US and internationally.

The DENV Detect™ NS1 ELISA serves as an aid in the clinical laboratory diagnosis of early stages of Dengue infection in patients with clinical symptoms consistent with Dengue infection. This test is intended to be used on sera obtained within the first 7 days of symptoms. DENV Detect™ NS1 ELISA results (positive or negative) must be confirmed by testing with a reference standard test.

Subjects will be patients who present with symptoms consistent with dengue infection, such as fever and myalgia. After informed consent is obtained and the subject is screened for eligibility, 2 diagnostic samples will be collected. The first will be collected within the first 7 days of symptoms onset, and the second will be collected at least 7 days later, between the 10th and 21st days post-onset of symptoms.

ELISA and reference tests will be performed by different operators who are laboratory staff members. These staff members, blinded to each other's results, will evaluate the samples from each method independently.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Infectious Diseases, run by InBios International, Inc. at 5 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 5 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 May 2018. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Argentina, Barbados, Colombia, Sri Lanka, Thailand. 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?

number of subjects with positive result (time frame: 1 day). 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 May 2018.
