Testing a new Ebola blood test
Part of Infections clinical trials.
This trial is testing a new, faster way to detect Ebola in blood samples. They are using stored blood samples to see if the new test works as well as the standard one.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a stored blood sample from a previous Ebola test.
- Your sample must be available in a biobank (a storage facility for medical samples).
- The sample can be from a person who tested positive or negative for Ebola.
- No other health requirements are needed.

This study is testing a new, faster way to detect Ebola and Lassa fever viruses using stored blood samples. Your sample could help improve diagnosis and care for future patients.
This trial provides an experimental antibody treatment called REGN-EB3 to people infected with Ebola virus. It aims to treat the infection and potentially improve recovery, and is available through special access in areas with Ebola outbreaks.
This trial tests a new medicine to prevent Ebola after you have been exposed. If you had close contact with someone who has Ebola in the last 5 days, this study could help you stay healthy.
This study tests a new blood test that may quickly find bacteria or yeast causing a bloodstream infection. It uses a small extra blood sample taken at the same time as your regular blood culture, and could help doctors identify the infection faster.
This trial is developing a quick, point-of-care diagnostic test for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF), a serious viral illness. If you have symptoms and are being tested for CCHF, this study could help confirm the diagnosis faster.
This trial provides an experimental antibody treatment called ansuvimab to people who have Ebola or have been recently exposed to it. The goal is to help their bodies fight the virus and prevent illness.
