Clinical Concordance Evaluation of T-SPOT®.TB Assay Performance (T-Cell SelectTM Study)
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
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

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.

Arms and Interventions
Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
---|---|
Suspected of having TB infection These donors are suspected of having TB infection and live in a high endemic area for TB infection |
Diagnostic Test: T-Cell SelectTM Kit
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.
|
No (or minimal) TB risk factors These donors must have no previous medical record of TB infection and live in low endemic area for TB infection |
Diagnostic Test: T-Cell SelectTM Kit
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.
|
low/intermediate risk of TB infection population These donors must live in an low/intermediate endemic area for TB infection |
Diagnostic Test: T-Cell SelectTM Kit
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.
