This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study

The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.

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.
