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 18 years and older
  • All sexes
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: This evaluation will collect blood samples from subjects suspected of having TB infection and, samples from a low risk control population with no (or minimal) TB risk factors. All subjects presenting at participating clinics will be eligible for enrolment into the study provided they meet the inclusion/exclusion criteria outlined in section 4. Based on previous experience and the medical profile of the patient attending each of clinics at the four study sites, it is expected that the sites will individually, and collectively, yield a range of positive and negative assay results required to assess the impact of the T-Cell Select kit on positive and negative agreements of the T-SPOT.TB test.

Who may be able to join

About this study

Official title: Clinical Concordance Evaluation of the T-SPOT®.TB Assay Performance Using Positive Selection With the T-Cell SelectTM Kit and Density Gradient Cell Isolation Methods

The objective is to achieve 90% overall, positive and negative clinical concordance between results of the T-SPOT.TB assay, using cells isolated via density gradient centrifugation and positive selection using the T-Cell Select kit, between 0-55 hours following venepuncture

Read the detailed description

In this study, clinical concordance between results of the T-SPOT.TB assay, using cells stored for 0-8 hours post venepuncture and isolated via density gradient separation and positive selection with magnetic bead isolation using the T-Cell SelectTM Kit will be assessed. Concordance between results of the T-SPOT.TB assay at 0-8 hours post venepuncture and using cells isolated with density gradient centrifugation and results obtained from cells isolated using the T-Cell Select Kit, following storage between 0-55 hours post venepuncture, will be assessed.

What participants receive

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

  • T-Cell SelectTM KitDiagnostic test

    The T-Cell Select kit is intended for the isolation of mononuclear immune cells from whole blood, using positive selection via a magnetic bead-based cell separation system, for use in the T-SPOT.TB assay.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Tuberculosis, run by Oxford Immunotec at 4 sites in 2 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 0 inclusion and 16 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 3 Mar 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in United States, South Africa. 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?

Achieving positive and negative clinical concordance between results of the T-SPOT.TB assay between 0-55hours after venipuncture (time frame: 1 year). 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 3 Mar 2022.
