Key information

About this study

In this study we propose to evaluate the performance of several G6PD testing platforms. We will also determine the concordance between point-of-care G6PD tests and the spectrophotometric gold standard. This study will also access the sensitivity and specificity between the point-of-care G6PD tests. This study will take place in Indonesia, specifically in the SW Sumba region. We will enroll 700 volunteers.

Treatment and study plan

Primary outcomes

  1. Determine concordance between point-of-care tests and spectrophotometric gold standard

    Time frame: Six months

    Percent agreement between the quantitative results of the G6PD tests and the spectrophotometric test.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Determine sensitivity and specificity of the point-of-care G6PD tests against the spectrophotometric gold standard

    Time frame: Six months

    This is to determine the variance of the sensitivity and specificity of different G6PD point-of-care tests compared to the gold standard.

  2. Measure categorical accuracy of point-of-care G6PD test against by the spectrophotometric gold standard

    Time frame: Six months

    Percent agreement between the qualitative G6PD test and the categorical results of the spectrophotometric gold standard

  3. Determine concordance between point-of-care G6PD tests and the florescent spot test

    Time frame: Six months

    Compare sensitivity & specificity of qualitative results of the G6PD test and the categorical results of the florescent spot test.

  4. Define the G6PD-normal and deficient profiles in the SW Sumba population.

    Time frame: Six months

    Determine the profile of the SW Sumba area in regards to normal and deficient population spread.
