Study summary

Symphony IL-6 is a device that quantitates human IL-6 by fluorescence enzyme immunoassay (FEIA) from whole-blood specimens. Use of Symphony IL- 6 removes the need for plasma separation before testing. Symphony IL-6 comprises two components, the Symphony Fluorescence Immunoanalyzer and the Symphony IL-6 Cartridge. Whole blood is added to the cartridge and then up to six cartridges can be inserted into the immunoanalyzer. After 20 minutes a readout and printout are given with a quantitative IL-6 concentration. The used cartridges are fully enclosed and can be easily disposed of in general hospital bio-waste. Given the nature of this device and its portability, there is potential for future deployment as a point-of-care (POC) device.

The objective of this study is to establish a reference range for Symphony IL-6 in a cohort of apparently healthy individuals.

Study population

We will enroll approximately 120 apparently healthy individuals, split approximately between males and females, and covering an age range from approximately 18 to 85 years of age at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, or from satellite facilities associated with the medical center. Subjects must meet all eligibility criteria to be in enrolled in the study. Whole blood specimens will be prospectively collected and tested using the Symphony IL-6 system.

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.
