1 Clinical Diagnostics Research Consortium (CDRC) Funded through a contract from U.S. National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, National Institutes of Health Mission: to evaluate novel TB diagnostics relatively early in their development, in order to guide subsequent use and/or development Clinical sites Infectious Diseases Institute in Kampala, Uganda University of Cape Town, South Africa International Tuberculosis Research Center, South Korea Federal University of Espirito Santo, Vitoria, Brazil
2 Multicenter study of the Alere Determine TB-LAM lateral flow test for diagnosis of TB in adults with HIV infection Susan Dorman, M.D. For the NIH TB Clinical Diagnostics Research Consortium (CDRC) November 14, 2012 FIND Symposium
3 Disclosure: Alere donated Determine TB-LAM lateral flow assays and Clearview TB ELISA kits for this study Alere had no role in study design, or in analysis or interpretation of study results
4 Background Liparabinomannan (LAM) 17.5 kd glycolipid of MTB outer cell wall Heat stable, detectable in urine in some animal models Attractive diagnostic target Bacterial product (not human immune response) Urine lacks infection control risks of blood, sputum Amenable to inexpensive POC platforms (e.g. lateral flow) Clearview TB ELISA (Inverness) assay for urine LAM Direct sandwich immunoassay Uses polyclonal antibodies against LAM In HIV+ adults, sensitivity 56%, specificity 91-95% (Minion et al, ERJ Express July 2011)
5 Background Determine TB-LAM lateral flow assay (Alere) uses Determine testing platform No sample processing; results in 25 minutes Analytical sensitivity reported to be 0.25 ng/ml Reporting scale: no band; band of intensity 1+ to 5+ sample application pad patient result window control window
6 Main Study Objectives Estimate sensitivity and specificity of Determine TB- LAM lateral flow assay in adult HIV-positive TB suspects Compare sensitivity and specificity of Determine TB- LAM lateral flow vs Clearview TB ELISA LAM assay Determine operating characteristics of Determine TB-LAM lateral flow assay (test failures, betweenreader variability) Determine clinical characteristics associated with a positive LAM test
7 Study Design Mainly cross-sectional; limited longitudinal f/u Population: HIV-positive adults Settings Kampala, Uganda (Mulago Hospital & outpatient clinics) Cape Town, South Africa (Jooste Hospital & Kayelitsha Town Two outpatient clinic) Target sample size 1000 participants
8 Study Design Inclusion Criteria Age 18 years Informed consent Suspected active TB At least one of cough, fever, night sweats, weight loss HIV positive Exclusion Criteria More than 2 days of TB treatment within past 60 days Unwilling or unable to provide urine specimen
9 Schema Screen, enroll Any LAM test positive but no culture positive for MTB Interview Sputum x 2 for smear, MGIT cx, LJ cx Blood for mycobacterial cx CD4 count, CXR Urine for LAM ELISA, lateral flow All others in-person f/u visit at 2 months: Interview Record review Same tests as at enrollment Review of medical records at 2 months, Attempt to contact via phone/home visit Classification of TB status
10 Final TB status: Definitions Microbiologically-confirmed TB (primary group for SENSITIVITY) Mtb cultured from any specimens Possible TB No culture positive plus 1 of following: Sputum smear microscopy positive Caseous necrosis or granulomas on biopsy, if done Started on TB tx with documented clinical improvement Dx of active TB per a non-study clinician Death reported to be due to active TB per medical source Not TB (primary group for SPECIFICITY) Does not meet criteria for either of above, plus each of: No TB treatment given At f/u was confirmed to be alive or to have died from cause other than TB Not classifiable Does not meet any of above classifications

25 Discussion (I) Determine TB-LAM cut-point of 2+ optimized sensitivity and specificity Using cut-point of 2+, Determine TB-LAM had similar specificity and sensitivity c/w Clearview ELISA Determine TB-LAM sensitivity highest in individuals with CD4 100; specificity high, not affected by CD4 Positive Determine TB-LAM result associated with mycobacteremia, being hospitalized, poor physical performance status, low CD4 LAM antigenuria associated with unfavorable clinical outcome
26 Discussion (II) Methodological approaches to determine specificity as accurately as possible in our study: Optimized sensitivity of reference standard dx procedures Study-specified reference standard dx tests performed using SOPs Liquid culture used (in addition to solid culture) All participants had mycobacterial blood cultures (did not rely solely on sputum) Incorporated follow-up of participants to the extent our budget allowed Attempted to minimize any possible effect of urine sample contamination by testing within 24 hours (quality monitored)
27 Discussion (III) Analyses underway: characteristics of participants with grade 1+ results on Determine TB-LAM testing Additional work needed to assess: Operational feasibility of using 2+ positivity threshold in routine care circumstances Impact of POC Determine TB-LAM testing on patientcentered outcomes Determine TB-LAM test may have narrow indication (HIV positive, CD4 100?), but proof of principle achieved and research needed around: more sensitive target detection systems more specific recognition molecules biodistribution of Mtb antigens
28 Conclusions Determine TB-LAM is the first true POC TB test, and it uses a readily accessible clinical specimen type (urine) Determine TB-LAM test detected TB in well over half of TB patients with CD4 100: the group at highest risk for mortality and with the greatest benefit from prompt ART Determine TB-LAM specificity was quite good but not perfect
