  1. DEVELOPMENT OF RAPID BLOODSCREENING TESTS FOR vCJD FDA‘s Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies Advisory Committee 19 September 2006 - Holiday Inn, Gaithersburg, MD Alex J. Raeber Head of Research Prionics AG

  2. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics KEY ISSUES IN TEST DESIGN • Species • Adaptable to multiple species (human, sheep, rodents) • Platform • Simple microplate format • Automatable for HTS • Sensitivity • Detection of 10 – 100 infectious units per ml blood • Specificity • < 0.2 initial reactives, <0.1% repeat reactives

  3. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics PRIONICS APPROACH • Immunoassay with prion specific antibody 15B3 • Broad species specificity • Detection of abnormal PrP (disease asociated) • Versatile microplate platforms • (IP-Western) • ELISA • FACS • Easy test principle: • Antibody capture/enrichment • Wash • Detection

  4. 15B3 epitope Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics PrPTSE DETECTION BY mAb 15B3 Nature 390 (6655) : 74-77, 1997

  5. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics INFECTIVITY OF PK-SENSITIVE PrPGSS Mice Inoculated/Sick Inoculum Source IP PK Incubation Time days 8/0 > 300 8/8 215 + 4 8/0 > 300 Tg(GSS22) IgM - Tg(GSS22) 15B3 - Tg(GSS22) 15B3 + Nazor et al. (2005) EMBO J 24: 2472-2480

  6. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics 15B3 PERFORMS AS IgM and IgG M 100 72 55 40 33 24 17 100 72 55 40 33 24 17 IgM IgG

  7.        Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics PRION SPECIFIC mAB15B3….. … detects PrPTSE of humans, bovines, sheep, rodent and deer … detects protease sensitive and protease resistant PrPTSE … captures PrPTSE associated with prion infecticity … binds PrPTSE with high affinity as an IgM or IgG isotype

  8. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics ASSAY PRINCIPLE Post mortem Ante mortem normal TSE normal TSE Proteinase K Proteinase K 15B3 6H4 Immunoprecipitation-WB ELISA FACS Prionics®-Check WESTERN Prionics®-Check LIA Prionics®-PrioSTRIP

  9. Y Y Y Y Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics ASSAY FORMAT: ELISA Anti-PrP antibody PrPSc 15B3 antibody Anti-IgM antibody

  10. 15B3 ELISA Diagnostic Test DETECTION OF PrPTSE IN BRAIN

  11. 15B3 ELISA Diagnostic Test CLINICALLY SCRAPIE SICK SHEEP Animal A106 25.11.04 Sensitivity: 100% Specificity: 100% Cut-off Scrapie negative sheep Scrapie positive sheep Animal A106 10.5.05

  12. 15B3 ELISA Diagnostic Test PRECLINICAL SCRAPIE SHEEP Sensitivity: 70 – 80 % Specificity: 100% Cut-off Tonsil scrapie negative sheep Tonsil scrapie positive sheep

  13. 15B3 ELISA Diagnostic Test ANALYTICAL SENSITIVITY FOR vCJD • vCJD prions in brain: 107 IU/g brain tissue • Limit of detection < 250 IU/ml vCJD brain homogenate provided by Dr. Jillian Cooper and Dr. Phil Minor (NIBSC)

  14. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics ASSAY FORMAT: FACS 10% control BL6 Homogenate 10% RML 5 Homogenate no sample 500 nl 500 nl 8 nl 6% 5% 99% 22% Y Y Y Y

  15. FACS Format ANALYTICAL SENSITIVITY Detection Limit 10-50 LD50/ml

  16. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics PRECLINICAL VALIDATION • Analytical sensitivity with vCJDBlind panel of human plasma spiked with vCJD spleen (NIBSC) • Diagnostic sensitivity on animal blood samples (clinical stage)Blind panel of clinical scrapie (NIBSC)Blind panel of clinical mouse/hamster • Diagnostic sensitivity on animal blood samples (preclinical stage)Blind panel of preclinical scrapie (NIBSC)Blind panel of preclinical mouse/hamsterSero-conversion panel of experimentally BSE infected sheep

  17. Ante mortem TSE Diagnostics CLINICAL VALIDATION • Diagnostic specificity on normal human samplesBlind panels of other neurological diseasesBlind panels of non-neurological diseasesLarge scale screening of human blood donationsDesired performance: < 0.2 initial reactives, <0.1% repeat reactives • Diagnostic sensitivity on human clinical vCJD samplesBlind panel of clinical vCJD samples (NIBSC) • Diagnostic sensitivity on human pre-clinical vCJD samplesBlind panel of pre-clinical vCJD samples • Confirmatory testsAnimal bioassay not feasibleAmplification test (PMCA)Cell based bioassay
