Brief Summary

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

Prospective study that will evaluate the clinical agreement of the Sky Medical™ Rapid Antigen Test compared to SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Clinical performance characteristics of the Sky Medical™SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid test was compared to a Reference Extracted EUA SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR. The test kit was evaluated in the U.S in which patients were sequentially enrolled and tested. Symptomatic subjects were enrolled within six days of the onset of symptoms from a multi-site prospective clinical study. A total of 69 Nasopharyngeal samples, were tested in one (1) CLIA waived investigational site by five (5) minimally trained operators in the U.S during the 2022 COVID-19 season.

NP swab specimens collected from the patients with COVID-19 like symptoms in the U.S during the 2022 COVID-19 season and stored in BD universal transport media tube were provided by our site in the U.S. All the NP swab specimens were confirmed as positive or negative and validated with Ct value by the FDA EUA RT-PCR as a comparator method prior to the study. A total of 69 samples consisting of 39 confirmed positive nasopharyngeal (NP) swabs, 30 confirmed negative NP swab specimens were collected. The specimens were aliquoted, randomized, and blinded into sample panels that were tested by each operator, using the instructions provided by the Quick Reference Instructions (QRI).

All the study samples were randomized and assigned with a unique study subject ID by the sponsor prior to testing at the study site. The expected results of the samples were completely blinded to the operators. All the samples were tested by five (5) operators according to the Quick Reference Instructions only.

Allocation Method

NA

Intervention Model

SINGLE_GROUP

The purpose of this study is to validate the performance of the SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Test bioassay for rapid detection of infection when using a nasopharyngeal swab. A prospective randomized and blinded study to evaluate a rapid point of care bioassay for the detection of virus particles compared with the currently validated RT-PCR detection standard. Nasopharyngeal samples will be collected along with the current standard of care collection.

Study Groups

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

SARS-CoV-2 Antigen Rapid Test

The same group of patients participated in two arms of the study. One arm was for obtaining data on the Rapid Antigen Test for Covid-19. The comparator arm was to obtain data from the RT-PCR.
