Quotient Limited Reports Commencement of EU Blood Grouping Field Trial
JERSEY, Channel Islands, May 17, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Quotient Limited (NASDAQ:QTNT), a commercial-stage diagnostics company, today reported that it has completed the verification and validation (V&V) phase for its initial blood grouping MosaiQ™ microarray (IH I) and has commenced its European field trials.
“I am very pleased to announce the start of our European field trials for IH I. This is the next important step in our rigourous development process, that included the V&V performance data which we have previously shared. We feel confident in moving forward to commence the fields trials at this time,” said Franz Walt, Quotient’s Interim Chief Executive Officer, who added, “The concordance portion of the study is moving forward and we expect to make the concordance data available in a press release some time during the month of June.”
Assay Performance
Following the completion of the V&V studies for IH I the Company has moved into its European field trial. The V&V data were derived in accordance with established protocols using microarrays manufactured in Quotient’s validated, high-volume manufacturing facility and run on validated instruments.
MosaiQ IH Microarray - Antigen Typing Requirement is to be 99% Concordant with Predicate
A recap of the previously disclosed V&V head-to-head study results for antigen typing compared with the predicate technology is set out below:
Blood Group Antigen A B D C c E e Cw K k
Concordance 100.0% 100.0% 99.3% 100.0% 99.2% 100% 99.6% 100.0% 100.0% 99.8%
The above results imply overall concordance of 99.8% for antigen typing on MosaiQ.
MosaiQ IH Microarray - Antibody Detection Requirement is to be 95% Concordant with Predicate
The previously disclosed V&V study concordance data for antibody detection was 99.1% concordant.
