研究概览
简要总结
This is an observational prospective study of an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay planned to enroll 632 subjects. The study will be conducted in two stages: Stage A is aimed at identifying individual biomarkers and constructing a multi-parametric diagnostic model, whereas Stage B is aimed at testing the multi-parametric diagnostic model using a fresh cohort of patients.
A collection of clinical, radiological and laboratory data will be gathered in order to establish a final diagnosis. Blood samples will be analyzed and the levels of approximately 700 and 250,000 biomarkers will be determined using immunoassays and molecular measurements respectively.
A final diagnosis will be determined based on a majority decision of a panel of three or more independent physicians. Based on the final diagnosis, the accuracy of individual biomarkers and combined sets of biomarkers for differentiating between distinct groups of patients will be evaluated.

- •Peak fever >37.5°C (99.5°F)
- •Clinical suspicion of an acute infectious disease
- •Symptoms duration ≤ 12 days
- •In the Non-infectious disease control group:
- •A non-infectious disease or healthy individuals
排除标准
- •Patients who will meet one or more of the following criteria will be excluded from the study:
- •Evidence of another episode of acute infectious disease in the last two weeks
- •Diagnosed congenital immune deficiency (CID)
- •Current treatment with immunosuppressive therapy such as: Active chemotherapy,Post-transplant drugs,High dose steroids (>1 mg/kg/day prednisone or equivalent).
- •Active radiotherapy

结局指标
主要结局
The sensitivity and specificity of a multi-parametric diagnostic assay in differentiating between bacterial and viral etiology in patients with an acute infectious disease
时间窗: 0-10 days after the initiation of symptoms
We will evaluate the sensitivity and specificity of a multi-parametric diagnostic model, incorporating up to five different blood bio-markers in differentiating between bacterial and viral etiology in patients with an acute infectious disease.
次要结局
- The sensitivity and specificity of a multi-parametric assay in differentiating between mixed (bacterial and viral co-infection) and pure viral infections in patients with an acute infectious disease(0-10 days after the initiation of symptoms)
- The sensitivity and specificity of individual biomarkers in differentiating between bacterial and viral etiology in patients with an acute infectious disease(0-10 days after the initiation of symptoms)
