1malaria rapid diagnoStic teSt performance – Summary results of WHo product testing of malaria rdts: round 1-4 (2008-2012)

1. Summary performance of malaria rdtS: WHo product teSting: roundS 1–4

1.1. introductionThe World Health Organization estimates that half the world’s population is at risk of malaria, with an estimated 216 million people (range 149–274 million) developing clinical malaria in 2010 (81% in Africa), and 655,000 deaths (range 537,000–907,000) due to malaria (91% in Africa, most being children). Malaria remains endemic in 106 countries, and while parasite-based diagnosis is increasing, most suspected cases of malaria are still not properly confirmed, resulting in over-use of anti-malarial drugs and poor disease monitoring1.

WHO recommends that malaria case management be based on parasite-based diagnosis in all cases2. The use of antigen-detecting rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) forms a vital part of this strategy, forming the backbone of expansion of access to malaria diagnosis by providing parasite-based diagnosis in areas where good quality microscopy cannot be maintained. The number of RDTs available, and the scale of their use, has rapidly increased over the past few years. However, limitations of comparative field trials and the heterogeneous nature of malaria transmission and epidemiology has limited the availability of good quality performance data that national malaria programmes require to make informed decisions on procurement and implementation, and limits the ability to extrapolate results of field trials to different populations and time periods. To this end, in 2006, the World Health Organization (WHO), Special Programme for Research and Training in Tropical Diseases (TDR) and the Foundation for Innovative New Diagnostics (FIND) launched an evalua-tion programme to assess the comparative performance of commercially available malaria RDTs. Currently, these data are guiding procurement decisions which are in turn shifting markets towards better-performing tests1 and helping to drive overall improvement in the quality of manufacturing. The results of WHO Malaria RDT Product Testing have been published annually since 2009 and form the basis of procurement criteria of WHO, other UN agencies, the Global Fund and national governments.

This Summary presents an overview of the results of the first through fourth rounds of WHO Malaria RDT Product Testing and is published in conjunction with the release of the full report on Round 4. The results of the four rounds of testing should be considered as a single data set. Separate

full reports of all rounds should be consulted for further detail on product performance, and on the interpretation and use of these results.

1.2. the WHo product testing programmeThe RDT evaluations summarized here were performed as a collaboration between WHO, TDR, FIND, the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and other partners3. All companies manufacturing under ISO 13485:2003 Quality System Standard were invited to submit a limited number of products (2–3) for evaluation under the programme. In the first round of testing, 41 products from 21 manufacturers were evaluated against prepared blood panels of cultured Plasmodium falciparum parasites, while 29, 50 and 48 products from 13, 23 and 27 manufacturers were evaluated in Round 2, 3 and 4, respectively. Many manufacturers have decided to voluntarily re-submit products to one or more rounds of testing, including 1, 23 and 13 resubmissions in Round 2, 3 and 4, respectively (Table S3). Of these 168 total products, 164 progressed to testing against panels of patient-derived P. falciparum and P. vivax parasites, and a parasite-negative panel. Thermal stability was assessed after two months of storage at elevated temperature and humidity, and a descriptive ease-of-use assessment was recorded. Of the 164 fully evaluated products, 21 have been evaluated twice, and 8 have been evaluated three times between Rounds 1-4. Of the 128 unique products tested by the programme, 35 detect P. falciparum alone, 83 detect and differentiate P. falciparum from non-P. falciparum malaria (either pan-specific or species-specific (Pv, Pvom), 9 detect P. falciparum and non-P. falciparum malaria without distinguishing between them, and one product was designed to detect P. vivax only. Manufacturers submitted two lots of each product for evaluation. Where the same products4 have been re-submitted in subsequent rounds of testing, the latter results replace those published from the earlier round. Thus, the performance of many tests in the results below differ from those published in the Rounds 1–3 reports.

The evaluation is designed to provide comparative data on the performance of the submitted production lots of each product. Such data will be used to guide procurement decisions of WHO and other UN agencies and national governments.

2 malaria rapid diagnoStic teSt performance – Summary results of WHo product testing of malaria rdts: round 1-4 (2008-2012)

Product testing is part of a continuing programme of work to improve the quality of RDTs that are used, and to support broad implementation of reliable malaria diagnosis in areas where malaria is prevalent. A fifth round of product testing will begin in January 2013.

1.3. results of the evaluationThe results (summarized in Figures S1 and S2 and Tables S1 and S2) provide comparative data on two lots of products against a panel of parasite samples diluted to a low parasite density (200 parasites/µl) and a higher parasite density (2000 or 5000 parasites/µl). The former is well below the mean parasite density found in many populations with endemic malaria, and considered close to the threshold that tests must detect to reliably identify clinical malaria in many settings1. For the purposes of this report, the main measure of perform-ance is the ‘panel detection score (PDS)’2; the percentage of malaria samples in the panel giving a positive result by two RDTs per lot at the lower parasite density, and a single RDT per lot at the higher parasite density. Thus, it is not a measure of RDT clinical sensitivity, or positivity rate against the panel but rather a combined measure of positivity rate, along with inter-test and inter-lot consistency. The figures also show the false-positive rates against blood samples containing no malaria parasites or known markers of other diseases, and the rate at which invalid results occurred.

The clinical sensitivity of a RDT to detect malaria is highly dependent on the local conditions, including parasite density in the target population. Sensitivity of a test will therefore vary among populations with differing levels of transmis-sion, as their different levels of immunity affect the para-site density at which they exhibit symptoms warranting a diagnostic test. Where transmission rates are low, parasite densities in people with symptoms of malaria are likely to be lower, resulting in tests having a lower sensitivity. For this reason, test performance at 200 parasites/µl is particularly important. The results in this report show comparative performance among RDTs, and give an indication of which products are likely to provide higher sensitivity in the field, particularly in populations with low-density infections.

In general, as countries reduce malaria prevalence and even move towards malaria elimination, detection of low parasite densities becomes increasingly important in case manage-ment. As the detection rate at 2000 parasites/µl indicates, the sensitivity of many of these products will be similar in populations with higher parasite densities, although a subset of any population will include vulnerable individuals who may develop illness at low parasite densities (e.g. young children, pregnant women, those well protected by bed nets) and must always be taken into account when interpreting RDT results. An important caveat when predicting field sensitivity from the PDS provided in this report is that the panels used in this

2 Termed ‘Detection Rate’ in the full report of Round 1, published in 2009. See the Round 4 report for a full explanation of the panel detection score (PDS).

evaluation only include parasites known to express the target antigens. While non-expression of the target antigens has not been recorded for aldolase or pLDH, it is known that parasites infecting people in some areas of South America do not express HRP23. In areas where HRP2-deleted parasites exist, HRP2-detecting tests will have greatly reduced sensitivity or be incapable of detecting P. falciparum. In such populations, only tests detecting pLDH in P. falciparum parasites will be effective in diagnosing falciparum malaria.

Heat stability (summarized in Table S2) is vital to maintaining sensitivity of the test in the field. As a result, for procurement, it is essential that careful consideration be given to stability results to ensure that products to be used in areas with high temperatures of transport and storage have demonstrated stability in the product testing programme. Requirements will vary between countries: for example, if tests are to be deployed in areas where temperatures rarely rise above 30°C, less emphasis may be placed on stability at high temperatures compared to other aspects of test quality.

Ease-of-use requirements will also vary, depending on the extent of training and the work environment of the end-users. Particularly in primary health care settings, the simpler the tests, the easier it will be to avoid errors in preparation and interpretation.

Detailed results of the evaluations can be found in the reports of each evaluation,4 and at www.wpro.who.int/sites/rdt. WHO provides guidance on the procurement and implementation of malaria RDTs5,6 . Furthermore, an interactive guide to assist in selecting products with performance characteristics most suitable for a particular country health programme is found on the FIND website.7

1.4. Summary of outcomesThis laboratory-based evaluation provides a comparative measure of RDT performance in a standardized way to distinguish between well and poorly performing tests to inform procurement decisions of malaria control programmes and guide UN procurement policy.

Overall, the gains noted in the performance of products re-submitted to Round 3 were seen again in Round 4 for several products (Table S3), indicating product improvement by the manufacturers. Furthermore, in Round 4 the propor-tion of tests achieving a PDS (>75%) at 200 parasites/µl is comparable to Round 3 for P. falciparum at 73.9% and for P. vivax, the proportion is 47.2 %, representing an improve-ment over Rounds 1 and 3 combined (36.7%).

Several RDTs from the four rounds of testing demonstrated consistent detection of malaria at low parasite densities (200 parasites/µl), have low false-positive rates, are stable at tropical temperatures, are relatively easy to use, and can detect P. falciparum, P. vivax infections, or both.

Performance among products varied widely at low parasite density (200 parasites/µl); however, the majority of products showed a high level of detection at 2000 or 5000 parasites/µl.

P. falciparum tests targeting HRP2 antigen demonstrated the highest detection rates. In Round 4, both tests targeting pf-pLDH for detection of P. falciparum infection did not pass Phase 1. Thus, the range of choice for well-performing pLDH based P. falciparum tests remains limited, as it does for pan-only specific tests.

Test performance sometimes varied between lots, and widely between similar products, confirming the advisability of lot-testing post-purchase and prior to use in the field.

The results underscore the need for manufacturers to have adequate reference materials for product development and lot-release. The WHO-FIND Malaria RDT Evaluation Programme, in collaboration with the CDC, offers quality standard panels of P. falciparum isolates to manufacturers to assist in this process and is planning to transition to malaria recombinant antigens panels by the end of 2014.

1.5. use of these resultsAccurate diagnosis is vital to good malaria case management, whether based on microscopy or RDTs. The results of this report should be used to short-list RDTs for procurement for use in settings where good microscopy is not available or appropriate. Additionally, it is imperative that procurement decisions based on these results take into consideration local conditions of malaria transmission and illness where the tests will be used (e.g. Plasmodium species, target antigen varia-tion, parasite densities, climate), as well as other important considerations, including field-based ease-of-use assess-ments, and training/retraining requirements. Furthermore, in order to ensure that the high performance demonstrated by the lots evaluated in the product testing programme is maintained, it is recommended that each lot of RDTs is also tested in a standardized way prior to dispersal to the field1. Procurement of RDTs must not occur without programmatic and infrastructure preparation for proper use, including supply chain management, training on test usage and disposal, and training on patient management in response to results. The main report provides an algorithm (Annex 5a) to assist in this decision-making process and comprehensive guidance on several aspects of procurement can be found in ‘Good Practices for selecting and procuring rapid diagnostic tests for malaria’2.
