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 Site Settings

A prospective cross-sectional study in which surgically non-invasive sample-taking is done only for the purpose of testing the samples on iStatis HBsAg Test at the point of care.

Read the detailed description

Participants are prospctively recruited and enrolled to participate in the study. The Capillary (fingerstick) whole blood, and venous whole blood samples (in serum separating tube (SST) and Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) tube) are collected by a healthcare professional. Serum and plasma samples will be extracted through laboratory processing of the collected serum separating tube and Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid VWB, respectively. The collected samples of capillary will be tested on iStatis HBsAg Test. The collected Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid and serum separating tube VWB will be shipped to the central laboratory to appropriately process and extract serum and plasma samples. Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid VWB, plasma and serum will be tested on iStatis HBsAg Test in the laboratory. An aliquot of the obtained plasma sample will be further tested for reference and confirmatory testing.

The results from iStatis HBsAg Test results will not be used for participant management decisions.

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 South Africa.

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 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

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 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?

iStatis Performance (time frame: 3 Months). 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.
