Study Details
This study will evaluate the clinical performance of two investigational diagnostic kits developed by ALPCO: the Syphilis-T CLIA Kit and the Syphilis-NT CLIA Kit. These kits are designed to detect antibodies to Treponema pallidum and non-treponemal lipoidal antigens, respectively, in human serum and plasma using the automated KleeYa platform. The study will collect and analyze blood samples from individuals suspected of having syphilis, those at high risk, HIV-positive patients, pregnant individuals, and healthy controls. The aim is to determine the kits' Positive Percent Agreement (PPA) and Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) compared to established reference assays.
