简要总结
This study evaluates the stability of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] measurements in human serum and plasma using the ALPCO 25(OH) Vitamin D CLIA Kit. The study compares results obtained from fresh specimens with those obtained after storage under various temperature and time conditions, including long-term frozen storage and short-term handling scenarios. The objective is to demonstrate that specimen storage conditions do not result in clinically meaningful differences in measured 25(OH)D concentrations, supporting the use of fresh and previously stored samples in laboratory testing.
详细描述
This clinical study is designed to assess the analytical stability of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] in human serum and plasma specimens under defined storage conditions using the ALPCO 25(OH) Vitamin D CLIA Kit, a competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay performed on the KleeYa automated platform.
The study consists of two cohorts. Cohort 1 evaluates long-term stability of 25(OH)D in human serum specimens following storage at ultra-low temperatures (-80°C). Approximately 30 donor-derived serum samples representing clinically relevant vitamin D levels (deficient, insufficient, and sufficient) will be tested at baseline and after storage for predefined time points up to six months. The objective of this cohort is to demonstrate equivalence between fresh and frozen specimens following a single freeze-thaw cycle.
Cohort 2 evaluates short-term stability of 25(OH)D in both serum and plasma specimens under multiple temperature conditions (2-8°C, 22°C, 37°C, and -80°C) over a defined period of up to 31 days. Approximately 10 donor-derived specimens will be tested at baseline and at predefined intervals to assess the impact of sample handling and storage conditions relevant to routine laboratory workflows.
Adult participants (≥22 years of age) will provide a single blood sample collected via standard venipuncture. Specimens will be processed, aliquoted, and tested according to protocol-defined procedures. The primary endpoint is the equivalence of 25(OH)D measurements between fresh and stored specimens. Data analysis will include descriptive and comparative statistical methods, including percent difference and mean bias, to evaluate stability across conditions.
This is a minimal-risk study involving no therapeutic intervention. Results are intended to support analytical performance claims, including specimen handling and storage conditions described in the assay Instructions for Use. No clinical benefit to participants is expected, and study results will not be used for medical decision-making.

研究组 & 干预措施
Cohort 2 - Short-Term Stability
Serum and plasma specimens derived from adult donors will be evaluated for short-term stability of 25(OH) vitamin D under multiple storage conditions (2-8°C, 22°C, 37°C, and -80°C) over a defined study period.

Cohort 1 - Long-Term Frozen Stability
Serum specimens derived from adult donors will be evaluated for long-term stability of 25(OH) vitamin D following storage at -80°C. Samples will be tested at baseline and after predefined storage intervals up to 6 months.

主要结局
Equivalence of 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] measurements between fresh and stored specimens
时间窗: Up to 6 months
Assessment of agreement between 25(OH)D concentrations measured in fresh serum and plasma specimens and those measured after storage under predefined temperature and time conditions, using the ALPCO 25(OH) Vitamin D CLIA Kit. Stability will be evaluated using percent difference, mean bias, and variability across time points.
