Study population: The study population will be composed of participants suspected of respiratory tract infection from SARS-COV-2, Influenza A/B, or RSV. After a subject is determined eligible for study participation (met inclusion criteria and did not meet exclusion criteria) and has completed the institutional review board (IRB)-approved informed consent form process (or assent, as age appropriate), the subject is enrolled into the study.

Who may be able to join

  • Participants of all ages must meet the following inclusion criteria to be eligible for participation in the study.
  • Ability to provide informed consent or assent (as age-appropriate). Stated willingness and ability to comply with the study procedures including nasopharyngeal and anterior nasal swab collection.
  • All-comers phase: Individuals suspected to have respiratory tract infection for seven (7) or fewer days.
  • Enrichment phase: Individuals suspected to have respiratory tract infection for seven (7) or fewer days, and with a standard of care positive PCR test result within three (3) days.

Who cannot join

  • Participants meeting the following criterion will be excluded from the study:
  • Suspected to have respiratory tract infection for greater than seven (7) days.
  • Patients not suspected of having a respiratory tract infection.

About this study

Official title: IVD_ Starfish_Clinical Performance Study Protocol for US - Project STARFISH - PRJ0002679

This is a non-interventional study to perform the clinical performance evaluation of the Starfish Test using prospectively collected matched nasopharyngeal and nasal swab samples from the same donor.

Read the detailed description

The Applied Biosystems™ TaqPath™ COVID-19, Flu A, Flu B, RSV Select Panel (referred to below as "Starfish Test") aims to develop a multiplex real-time PCR IVD test for the qualitative detection and identification of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

The purpose of this performance study is to evaluate the clinical performance of the Starfish Test compared with that of a comparator device using upper respiratory specimens from subjects who have provided consent to participate in the study and meet the inclusion criteria. This Clinical Performance Study Protocol (CPS Protocol) outlines the clinical sample collection and testing protocols which will be used to satisfy the FDA 510(k) study requirements in the US.

What is being measured

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

  1. Primary Endpoint

    The primary endpoint of this clinical performance study is to meet the minimum sample positivity requirements for nasopharyngeal samples as defined by relevant regulatory guidance.

    Measured: Between February 2023 and April 2024

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Secondary Endpoint

    The secondary endpoint of this study is to complete the clinical performance evaluation of the Starfish Test compared with that of a predicate device using Anterior nasal specimens and meet the minimum PPA and NPA requirements and acceptance criteria for each viral target as summarized in the protocol.

    Measured: Between February 2023 and April 2024

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Influenza A, run by Thermo Fisher Scientific, Inc at 17 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 4 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 30 Apr 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 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?

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?

Primary Endpoint (time frame: Between February 2023 and April 2024). 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 30 Apr 2024.
