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: The study will enroll specimens from children 0-12 years and adolescent or adult patients 13 years of age or greater. Enrolment of children in the study is expected to satisfy the binning (stratification) requirements since relative lymphocytosis and higher CD4+ lymphocyte counts are normal in children less than 5 years of age.

Who may be able to join

  • Subject has been infected with HIV and willing to provide informed consent to draw venous and capillary blood
  • Specimen: Venous blood must be collected in blood collection tube with EDTA anticoagulant and stored at room temperature (20-25 °C) according to tube manufacturer's instructions
  • Specimen: post enrolment staining within 24 hours
  • venous blood of acceptable quality for flow cytometry, e.g. no hemolysis or clots and acceptable pre analytical handling)
  • venous blood sample > 1 mL for sample preparation
  • capillary blood applied to the investigational CD4/%CD4/Hb cartridge

Who cannot join

  • Subject unwilling to disclose medical information regarding previous CD4 test results
  • Subject unwilling to discuss medical information regarding co-morbid conditions and current medications

About this study

Official title: Accuracy Evaluation of the BD FACS Presto System: Instrument, Software and BD CD4/%CD4/Hb Cartridge Assay

The enumeration of T lymphocytes positive for the CD4 antigen is used to determine the immune status of patients with, or suspected of developing, immune deficiencies such as AIDS. The BD FACS Presto™ is an investigational automated system for in vitro diagnostic use in performing the direct enumeration of CD4 absolute count, CD4 percentage of lymphocytes, and hemoglobin (Hb) concentration in human whole blood.

This is a prospective study to determine the relative bias between the investigational BD FACS Presto system and the predicate BD FACS Calibur with BD Tritest system in their determination of absolute CD4, % CD4, and Hb concentrations.

Being tested

What participants receive

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

  • Investigational BD FACSPresto SystemDevice

    Blood samples will be tested on the BD FACSPresto system for CD4 absolute count (CD4Abs), %CD4, and Hb concentration.

  • BD FACSCalibur flow cytometerDevice

    Blood samples will be tested on the predicate, currently marketed device. For CD4Abs and %CD4 measurement, the BD FACSCalibur flow cytometer will be used with BD Multiset software version 1.1 or later and BD Tritest CD3/CD4/CD45 reagent with Trucount tubes.

  • Sysmex hematology analyzer KX-21Device

    Blood samples will be tested for hemoglobic concentration on the predicate, currently marketed Sysmex hematology analyzer KX-21

What is being measured

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

  1. Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate in venous blood (AbsCD4 and %CD4)

    The primary endpoint is the bias (expected difference) between the investigational vs. predicate system measured as absolute CD4 lymphocyte count and %CD4 in peripheral venous blood from a minimum of 400 specimens with valid results tested at three or more external sites.

    Measured: assayed upon sample collection

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate in Capillary Blood (AbsCD4 and %CD4)

    The bias (expected difference) between the investigational vs. predicate system measured as absolute CD4 lymphocyte count and %CD4 in capillary blood from a minimum of 400 specimens with valid results tested will be determined at three or more external sites.

    Measured: assayed upon sample collection

  2. Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate for Hemoglobin

    The bias (expected difference) between the investigational BD FACSPresto system vs. predicate (Sysmex KX-21 hematology analyzer) will be determined for hemoglobin concentration using venous blood and capillary blood.

    Measured: assayed upon sample collection

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome, run by Becton, Dickinson and Company at 6 sites in 4 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 6 inclusion and 2 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 9 Feb 2017. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 6 sites in United States, India, Kenya, 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?

Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate in venous blood (AbsCD4 and %CD4) (time frame: assayed upon sample collection). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT02396355, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 9 Feb 2017.
