Study summary

The Solana® Trichomonas Assay is an in vitro qualitative nucleic acid amplification test for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis to aid in the diagnosis of trichomoniasis using the Helicase-Dependent Amplification (HDA) technology and the Solana instrument.

Read the detailed description

This study is to establish the clinical performance of the Solana® Trichomonas Assay for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis in vaginal swabs and urine samples as compared to a combined reference method of direct wet mount microscopy and a FDA-cleared device.

Study population

Female subjects symptomatic for Trichomonas vaginalis infection.

Go through the criteria one by one — yes, no or not sure — and take the list to your doctor or the study team. Kept in this browser only.

Inclusion criteria

  • Female subjects will be recruited from the general population as they present to the clinical facility. Subjects will be categorized by the clinician as either asymptomatic or symptomatic for Trichomonas vaginalis infection.

Symptoms in women can include:

  • Greenish-yellow, frothy vaginal discharge with a strong odor
  • Painful urination
  • Vaginal itching and irritation
  • Discomfort during intercourse
  • Lower abdominal pain (rare)

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion Criteria:

  1. The study is limited to females. Male subjects are not accepted.
  2. At clinical sites , unable to understand and consent to participation; for minors this includes parent or legal guardian.
Terms in these criteria, in plain language(1)

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.

Informed consent

Before you join, the study team explains what taking part involves — its purpose, what happens, the risks and possible benefits — and answers your questions, so you can decide freely. Consent is usually recorded on a form (the informed consent form, ICF) signed by you or, where the law allows, by someone legally authorised to decide for you.

You can keep asking questions during the study, you are told of new information that matters, and you can choose to leave at any time.

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Mar 20, 2018, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
