摘要
A clinical study of patients with male urethritis (n=316) was undertaken to determine the sensitivity potential for a new dual amplified immunoassay (IDEIA. PCE Chlamydia(TM)). Increased sensitivity (98.8%, 84/85) was obtained for IDEIA PCE Chlamydia(TM) compared to a conventional antigen detection test (IDEIA Chlamydia(TM), 81.2%, 69/85) when testing urine samples. In a smaller patient population (n=104) the positivity rate for the first-void urine tested with IDEIA PCE Chlamydia(TM) of 30.8% (32/104) was similar to the 27.9% (29/104) obtained from urethral swabs tested with a DNA probe assay (PACE 2(TM)). The increased sensitivity of the test was confirmed with a commercial PCR kit (Amplicor(TM)) and nested PCR. The IDELA PCE Chlamydia(TM) kit has the sensitivity potential to be a clinically reliable alternative for detecting Chlamydia trachomatis.
