Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To evaluate the analytical and clinical sensitivity and specificity of antigen tests performed as oropharyngeal swabs, outer nasal swabs, saliva swabs or breath tests including self-tests for SARS-CoV-2 towards standard RT-PCR testing.

For each test 200 SARS-CoV-2 positive and 200 SARS-CoV-2 negative individuals previously defined by RT-PCR are tested. When tested an additional RT-PCR test is performed to verify status.

Analytical sensitivity and specificity is determined on 210 SARS-CoV-2 positive samples with known Cq and 100 SARS-CoV-2 negative samples.

30 companies with a total of 55 tests participate in this nationwide study.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

SARS-Cov-2 positives

200 individuals will be tested by each antigen test. Testing is done with up to three swabs at a time from each anatomical test location

Comparison of antigen tests with RT-PCR as reference method

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Antigen tests are performed locally including sampling from multiple anatomical testing sites. A reference oropharyngeal swab is always send for RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 at DTU to verify the status of the patient. RT-PCR samples from other anatomical test locations may be included.

SARS-CoV-2 negatives

200 individuals will be tested by each antigen test. Testing is done with up to three swabs at a time from each anatomical test location

Comparison of antigen tests with RT-PCR as reference method

Intervention Type DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Antigen tests are performed locally including sampling from multiple anatomical testing sites. A reference oropharyngeal swab is always send for RT-PCR for SARS-CoV-2 at DTU to verify the status of the patient. RT-PCR samples from other anatomical test locations may be included.
