The consistent positivity that was demonstrated was 82.4% by QFT-G plus vs 65% by QFT-GIT testing. Among the 28 patients diagnosed with LTBI at the time of enrollment, the QFT-GIT and QFT-Plus assays agreed in 24 (85.7%) patients; in all four discordant patients, the positivity of the QFT-GIT or QFT-Plus IGRA was associated with low-level interferon gamma (IFN-γ) reactivity, ranging from 0.36 IU/ml to 0.66 IU/ml. 0000019659 00000 n

Both the standard qualitative test interpretations (positive, negative or indeterminate) and quantitative assay measurements (nil, TB and Mitogen concentrations) are reported. This assay was designed to stimulate both CD4 and CD8 positive T cells and have increased sensitivity for both active disease and latent infection. 2017 Sep;106:38-43. doi: 10.1016/j.tube.2017.06.002.

This test involves intradermal injection of a purified protein derivative from an attenuated Mycobacterium tuberculosis strain, followed by visual assessment for the presence or absence of a delayed-type hypersensitivity reaction at the injection site 48 to 72 hours later. 0000026121 00000 n
Tuberculin skin testing (TST) was a mainstay of latent and active TB infection prior to availability of blood assays for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in 2001. | The T-SPOT TB test received pre-market approval from the FDA in July 2008.

Accurate diagnosis of latent tuberculosis in children, people who are immunocompromised or at risk from immunosuppression and recent arrivals from countries with a high incidence of tuberculosis: systematic review and economic evaluation. Overall, we show comparable results between the QFT-GIT and QFT-Plus assays in our study population composed of subjects presenting with a diverse spectrum of TB infections. Currently available FDA-approved IGRA assays for MTB include QuantiFERON TB Gold (Qiagen) and T-spot TB (Oxford Immunotec) assays.
