简要总结
The objective of the IBDoc® user performance evaluation is to demonstrate the ease-of-use of the IBDoc® calprotectin home test to allow patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) to independently and correctly determine calprotectin concentration in their own stool sample. The study is based on Chapter 8 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Standard, ISO 15197:2013 "In vitro diagnostic test systems - Requirements for blood-glucose monitoring systems for self-testing in managing diabetes mellitus". The study is a prospective, multicenter study, not blinded for patients, and includes a total of 61 patients.
详细描述
The patient will determine the calprotectin concentration in their own stool sample using the IBDoc® assay. For this, the patient will collect a stool sample in a standard collection tube at home. The patients will return to the clinical site with the specimen, where they will receive a standardized IBDoc® training. They will also be given opportunity to perform an IBDoc® practice test using the collected sample. The patients will then perform the full IBDoc® assay using the collected stool sample under the observation of the healthcare provider, who will assess their performance. The final result - the interpretation of the IBDoc® lateral flow assay by the CalApp® smartphone application, to yield a final μg/g calprotectin concentration in stool, will be sent to the health care provider (HCP) via the IBDoc® Web Portal.
The usability of the IBDoc® test will be evaluated according to the following factors:
- Trueness/ accuracy - the patients' ability to obtain correct results will be evaluated by comparing patients' IBDoc® results with reference measurements from the same stool sample using the BÜHLMANN fCAL® ELISA, performed at a laboratory site. For reference measurements the HCP at the clinical site will obtain 3 CALEX® Cap extracts from the patient's stool sample, which will be stored frozen and shipped to the laboratory site.
To exclude bias or inaccuracy that may arise from the analytical performance characteristics of the IBDoc® assay itself, a comparative IBDoc® assay will be performed according to the instructions for use, with the patients' samples in a laboratory. For the comparative IBDoc® measurement the HCP at the clinical site will obtain one CALEX® Valve extract from the patient's stool sample, which will be stored frozen and shipped to the laboratory site.
-IBDoc® Calprotectin test usability, clearness of obtained result, and comprehensiveness of the Instruction for Use will be assessed in the following ways:

入选标准
- •Patients > 12 years
- •IBD Outpatients from a tertiary gastroenterological health care center willing to participate.
- •Patients diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease (CD), according to classical criteria (laboratory testing and exclusion of other possible causes: complete blood count, comprehensive metabolic panel, serological markers e.g. antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA), inflammatory markers in blood and serum: erythrocyte sedimentation rate, C-reactive protein (CRP); fecal occult blood and fecal calprotectin assays; confirmation by endoscopy, histology of a biopsy)
- •At least 30% patients should display active disease. This can be defined by a Harvey-Bradshaw index (HBI) > 5 in CD and a clinical Mayo score > 2 in UC
- •Remaining patients in clinical remission or only mildly active disease defined by a HBI<7 in CD and a clinical Mayo score < 3 in UC with a stable medical treatment
- •In case of a prescribed endoscopy, the observation period starts >3 days after colonoscopy
- •Stable care of a treating physician
- •Signed informed consent
排除标准
- •Other known pathology or predisposition that may interfere with the ability to perform the measurement procedures or that may influence calprotectin levels such as acute diarrhea or chronic use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
- •Inability to understand the procedures
- •Inability to psychologically handle potential test outcomes

结局指标
主要结局
Trueness/ accuracy of patients IBDoc® results
时间窗: 24 hours
Patients' IBDoc results are compared to reference calprotectin values obtained by laboratory methods
Quantifiable feedback from the enrolled patients about the ease-of-use of the test
时间窗: 24 hours
Ease-of-use of the test, clearness of test results and comprehensiveness of the instructions for use is assessed in a questionnaire, with 12 statements, scored on a 1-to-5 Likert scale, with one (1) indicating "I strongly disagree" and five (5) "I strongly agree". The mean and standard deviation of scores obtained from all participating patients will be evaluated for each statement.
Quantifiable feedback from healthcare providers
时间窗: 24 hours
Quantifiable feedback from the healthcare providers about the ability of the patients to correctly perform the IBDoc® assay. Assessment will be made through a questionnaire with five (5) statements, scored on a 1-to-5 Likert scale, with one (1) indicating "I strongly disagree" and five (5) "I strongly agree". The mean and standard deviation of scores obtained from all participating healthcare providers will be evaluated for each statement.
