Evaluation of a quantitative serum Aspergillus fumigatus-specific IgM assay for diagnosis of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis
© 2018 John Wiley & Sons Ltd..
BACKGROUND: The early diagnosis of chronic pulmonary aspergillosis (CPA) remains challenging. Currently, a new quantitative IgM antibody assay that enveloped purified galactomannan extracted from Aspergillus fumigatus as antigen was commercially available in China, but its diagnostic value remains to be established.
METHODS: To evaluate the role of this commercial IgM assay for diagnosis of CPA, a multi-center prospective study was performed in 12 hospitals in Zhejiang Province, from January 1 to December 31, 2016. Adult inpatients without severe immunocompromised condition and those with persistent clinical symptoms/radiological findings ≥3 months or a consistent appearance in chest CT that was suggestive of CPA were included. The clinical data were compiled using a structured questionnaire.
RESULTS: A total of 87 cases were enrolled, including 43 CPA. The sensitivity ranged from 16.3% to 46.5%, and the specificity from 77.3% to 95.5% when cutoffs were from 50 to 80 arbitrary unit (AU)/mL. The receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed an area under the curve of 0.627. When a cutoff of 38.12 AU/mL was applied, the sensitivity and specificity were 69.8% and 56.8%, respectively, which represents the best performance.
CONCLUSIONS: To our knowledge, this study was the first to evaluate this commercial A. fumigatus-specific IgM antibody assay in CPA patients in China and indicates that this IgM assay has a limited value and should not be a prior recommendation for CPA diagnosis.
