One fingerstick, three infections: new rapid test under study
NCT ID NCT07569913
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study will test a new rapid device called TruPlex that checks for HIV, Hepatitis B, and Syphilis using a single fingerstick blood sample. About 500 adults at risk for these infections will take part. Researchers want to see if the test is accurate and easy for trained staff to use at clinics or point-of-care sites.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
TruPlex HIV/HepB/Syphilis Rapid Test (a rapid diagnostic device using a fingerstick blood sample)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could provide a fast, single-test way to detect three infections at once, making screening easier in clinics and community settings.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage diagnostic study, not a treatment trial. The test may not be as accurate as current lab methods, and results may not apply to all populations or settings.
