Clinical Performance of the HRP2 HS-RDT for Malaria Diagnosis in Pregnant Women (HSRDT MiP)

November 29, 2023 updated by: Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics, Switzerland

Clinical Performance of the Histidine Rich Protein 2 (HRP2) Highly Sensitive Rapid Diagnostic Test (HS-RDT) for Malaria Diagnosis in Pregnant Women

This is a cross-sectional and multicentre clinical trial to study the performance of the Histidine Rich Protein 2 (HRP2) highly sensitive rapid diagnostic test (HS-RDT) for the detection of malaria during pregnancy in low transmission settings from Colombia and Indonesia. The new HS-RDT will be compared with conventional good quality RDTs, microscopy, and NAATs [loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP), nested PCR (nPCR)], in peripheral blood samples with quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) as reference standard.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Completed

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

The activities proposed will be performed in the context of health centres receiving pregnant women for antenatal care visit. Finger-prick blood (300 µL) will be collected and used to test for malaria with the HS-RDT, as well as with conventional good quality RDTs, microscopy and local NAATs (LAMP and nPCR). Dried blood spots will also be collected for qRT-PCR testing. Patient information (demographics, obstetric history, malaria prevention measures, etc.) as well as laboratory results will be recorded and entered into a dedicated database.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

15 years and older (Child, Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

N/A

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Consecutive pregnant women self-presenting at the selected health care facilities and meeting the eligibility criteria will be invited to participate in the study. After study staff provides full information about the study, pregnant women willing to participate will be asked to sign the informed consent form. They will consent to be interviewed and to provide finger-prick blood. For women younger than 18 years old, additional approval from the parent or legal guardian will be needed if required by local Institutional Review Board (IRB). Participants will be invited to participate at any visit at any trimester.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Women with confirmed pregnancy and registered to the antenatal care programme in the local health centre
  • Resident for at least 1 year in the study site
  • Age ≥ 15
  • Accepting to participate with willingness to give informed consent (pregnant adolescents younger than 18 y/o (age < 18) will be considered only if they are accompanied by parent or carer if it is requested by local Institutional Review Boards)
  • Willingness to provide finger-prick blood sample at enrolment

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Past history of malaria and/or antimalarial drugs in the last three months
  • Positive for malaria by microscopy and conventional RDT testing in any previous study screening visit
  • Presence of severe malaria as defined by WHO guidelines at the moment of recruitment
  • Presence of symptoms and signs of other severe disease and central nervous system infections, as defined by WHO guidelines.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Diagnostic accuracy
Time Frame: 1 year
Sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value, positive predictive value, diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUROC) of HRP2 HS-RDT for the detection of P. falciparum during pregnancy, compared with conventional good quality RDTs, microscopy and NAATs (LAMP, nPCR,), in peripheral blood with qRT-PCR as reference standard.

Study record dates

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
July 25, 2017

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
