Extra-genital samples for gonorrhoea and chlamydia in women and MSM Self-taken samples analysed separately compared with self-taken pooled samples Janet Wilson1, Harriet Wallace1, Michelle Loftus-Keeling1, Helen Ward2, Claire Hulme3, Mark Wilcox4 1 Leeds Centre for Sexual Health, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, UK, 2Department of Infectious Disease Epidemiology, Imperial College, London, UK, 3Academic Unit of Health Economics, University of Leeds, UK 4Department of Clinical Microbiology, Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, UK,

Introduction In MSM the majority of gonorrhoea (NG) and chlamydia (CT) infections are extra-genital so rectal and pharyngeal swabs are required which trebles the diagnostic cost Recent studies in women suggest a significant number of NG and CT infections are being missed by just VVSs and extra-genital sampling is suggested in those disclosing AI and OI Performing additional extra-genital NAATs in women would be very costly and unaffordable to many services as large numbers of women attend sexual health clinics

SYSTEMATIC (Swab-yourself trial with economic monitoring and testing for infections collectively) Objective: Compare sensitivity and specificity of pooled self-taken samples from genital tract, rectum and pharynx with self-taken samples analysed individually Study population: Women and MSM aged 16 and over Exclusion criteria: Antibiotics in the preceding 28 days Rectal symptoms (discharge, pain or bleeding, as these would necessitate an examination with clinician-taken swabs via a proctoscope) Unable or unwilling to perform self-taken swabs or have clinician performed swabs

Methods - Randomisation Each participant had three sets of samples: clinician-taken rectal and pharyngeal processed separately self-taken rectal, pharyngeal and VVS or FCU processed separately self-taken rectal, pharyngeal and VVS or FCU processed pooled Order randomised using computer generated simple randomisation Clinician / Self-taken pooled / Self-taken individual Clinician / Self-taken individual / Self-taken pooled Self-taken pooled / Self-taken individual / Clinician Self-taken individual / Self-taken pooled / Clinician

Methods - Pooling technique Women Self-taken pharyngeal swab inserted into NAAT transport medium, agitated for 5 seconds, removed and discarded Self-taken rectal swab inserted into same container, agitated for 5 seconds, removed and discarded Self-taken VVS inserted into the same container, stem broken off leaving the swab in the container 5 seconds thought adequate as cell lysis instantaneous No reduction in VVS sensitivity unless inhibition from other sites but increased detection of rectal and pharyngeal infections

Methods - Pooling technique MSM Self-taken pharyngeal swab inserted into urine NAAT transport medium, agitated for 5 seconds, removed and discarded Self-taken rectal swab inserted into same container, agitated for 5 seconds, stem broken off leaving the swab in the container FCU sample pipetted into same container to between the lines 5 seconds thought adequate as cell lysis instantaneous No reduction in rectal sensitivity unless inhibition from other samples but increased detection of pharyngeal and urethral infections

Methods - Microbiology analysis All samples analysed by Aptima Combo 2 (AC2) AC2 positive samples retested by Aptima GC or CT: Laboratory staff blinded to samples being self or clinician-taken and unable to link pooled samples to individual samples Patient infected status - at least two confirmed positive samples from any of the sites and including pooled sample, or a positive culture for NG Pooled infected status - at least one other confirmed positive sample as well as pooled

1191 women and 387 MSM recruited Jan 2015 to June 2016 by 5 clinicians Results 1191 women and 387 MSM recruited Jan 2015 to June 2016 by 5 clinicians MSM Mean age 34 years (18-77) Median 30 years Sexual history: 354 (91.5%) had ever given AI 351 (90.7%) had ever received AI 383 (99.0%) had ever given OI 385 (99.5%) had ever received OI Women Mean age 25 years (16-71) Median 23 years Sexual history: 1190 (99.9%) had ever had VI 548 (46%) had ever had AI 1142 (95.9%) had ever given OI

Results - gonorrhoea MSM Patient Infected Status: 39 Overall prevalence: 10.1% Site Infected Status: Urethral 2.8% (11) Rectum 6.7% (26) Pharynx 6.2% (24) Women Patient Infected Status: 60 Overall prevalence: 5.0% Site Infected Status: Urogenital 4.6% (55) Rectum 3.9% (46) Pharynx 2.9% (35) Overall Patient Infected Status MSM plus women: 99 Site Infected Status: Urethra/cervix 66 Rectum 72 Pharynx 59

Results - gonorrhoea Analysed separately versus pooled 7 false positive results, 6 analysed separately, 1 pooled 2 false negatives analysed separately – both culture and pooled positive (1 VVS, 1 MSM phar) 3 false negative pooled samples 1 missing pooled sample No difference between separately and pooled

No difference in sensitivities of separately and pooled samples Results - gonorrhoea 2 false negatives analysed separately – both culture and pooled positive (1 VVS, 1 MSM phar) 3 false negative pooled (1 VVS pos, 2 MSM rectal) No difference in sensitivities of separately and pooled samples

Results - chlamydia MSM Patient Infected Status: 31 Overall prevalence: 8.0% Site Infected Status: Urethra 1.8% (7) Rectum 6.7% (26) Pharynx 1.0% (4) Women Patient Infected Status: 227 Overall prevalence: 19.1% Site Infected Status: VVS 16.5% (197) Rectum 17.6% (209) Pharynx 4.7% (56) Overall Patient Infected Status MSM plus women: 258 Site Infected Status: Urethra/cervix 204 Rectum 235 Pharynx 60

Results - chlamydia By definition no false negative VVS or FCU in PIS definition as only included if pooled sample also positive because no cultures So comparison made between VVS and pooled sample in women and rectal SIS and pooled sample in MSM

Results - chlamydia Analysed separately versus pooled Pooled sample performed better than VVS

Results - chlamydia Pooled samples performed better than VVS

Conclusions Pooled samples performed as well as samples analysed separately in the diagnosis of NG missing 1 sole VVS and 2 rectal infections Pooled samples were superior to a VVS for diagnosing CT Increasing diagnostic costs to take triple swabs in most women is unaffordable for most health systems A pooled sample has equal efficacy for NG and is superior to a VVS for CT at the current laboratory cost of a VVS so is an affordable option
