ABCA2 GIRMS Analytical Validation Clinical Performance Study

Overview

The purpose of this study is to collect human breath samples for use in a validation study intended to demonstrate equivalent clinical performance measures of new ABCA2 GIRMS (Automated Breath Carbon Analyzer-2 Gas Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer) instruments to the currently FDA-approved ABCA GIRMS (Automated Breath Carbon Analyzer Gas Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer) system. ABCA GIRMS systems are used to analyze the ratio of 13CO2 to 12CO2 in patient breath samples during the GEBT (Gastric Emptying Breath Test) procedure.

Detailed Description

In this study the participants will be administered the FDA-approved GEBT test, which involves collecting breath samples prior to and after consumption of a non-radioactive carbon stable isotope (13C) labeled test meal. Breath samples will be collected at times consistent with FDA approved labeling. Participant's breath samples will be analyzed on the currently approved ABCA GIRMS and on the new ABCA2 GIRMS instruments. The values collected from both systems will be used to determine the clinical diagnostic agreement at each individual time points and percent agreement in diagnosis between the approved ABCA GIRMS and the new ABCA2 GIRMS.

Interventions

  • Device: ABCA2 GIRMS
    • Two systems (ABCA-C and ABCA-D) with run order randomized

Arms, Groups and Cohorts

  • Experimental: ABCA2 GIRMS
    • Leftover breath samples analyzed on ABCA2 GIRMS systems, order of analysis randomized

Clinical Trial Outcome Measures

Primary Measures

  • Diagnostic agreement at each individual timepoints
    • Time Frame: Up to 7 days per participant
    • Gastric emptying rates (kPCD) values compared between the validated ABCA GIRMS system and the new ABCA2 GIRMS systems for each GEBT post meal collection timepoint (45, 90, 120, 150, 180 and 240-minute timepoints) and the overall diagnosis
  • Percent agreement in diagnosis
    • Time Frame: Up to 7 days per participant
    • Diagnosis compared between the comparative method (ABCA GIRMS) and the candidate method (ABCA2 GIRMS) at each post meal timepoint and the overall diagnosis
