Diagnostic Performance Evaluation of a Novel SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) Antigen Detection Test

Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Covid19; SARS-CoV-2 Infection

• Registration Number: NCT04609969
• Lead Sponsor: Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans

Brief Summary

The current prospective study was designed to assess the diagnostic specificity and sensitivity of a novel antigen-based rapid detection test (COVID-VIRO®) on nasopharyngeal specimens in comparison to the reference test in a real-life setting

Detailed Description

Two nasopharyngeal swab specimens will be concurrently collected on:

* adult patients hospitalized in the Infectious Diseases Department of the Centre Hospitalier Régional d'Orléans (CHRO) for confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection,

* or symptomatic or asymptomatic subjects voluntarily accessing the COVID-19 Screening Department of the CHRO to perform a diagnostic test. COVID VIRO® diagnostic.

Specificity and sensitivity are assessed in comparison to real-time RT-qPCR results.

Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of COVID VIRO® diagnostic sensitivity	Month 1	COVID-VIRO® sensitivity is calculated using the RT-qPCR results as reference test, according to the following formulas: Sensitivity (%) = 100 x \[Positive/ (Positive + Negative)\]
Evaluation of COVID VIRO® diagnostic specificity	Month 1	COVID-VIRO® specificity is calculated using the RT-qPCR results as reference test, according to the following formulas: Specificity (%) = 100 x \[Negative / (Negative + Positive)\]

Secondary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Evaluation of COVID VIRO® diagnostic sensitivity for RT-qPCR Cycle threshold value < or > 28	Month 1	COVID-VIRO® sensitivity is calculated using the RT-qPCR results, restricting for Cycle threshold value
