A pool of 3 reference laboratories offered tests for 62 unique proteins in addition to 98 of the 109 FDA-approved analytes. Over 150 different forms of primary immunodeficiency diseases, of which 70% of all patients have defects in antibody production, are treated by replacement therapy. Address correspondence to the author at: Plasma Proteome Institute, P.O. These tests provide quantitative measurements for approximately 1% of the human protein gene products, defining a practical clinical plasma proteome. The largest subset of the 109 protein analytes (45%) carry out a known function in plasma other than antigen binding, and a further 6% are immunoglobulins . Immunoassays predominate in recent tests: only 1 of these 7 involves an enzyme (pancreatic amylase), and even in that case, the test usually involves an antibody to achieve isoenzyme specificity. Any such errors are the responsibility of the author, who would be grateful for material corrections. Five classes of protein analytes were assigned by inspection: proteins that act in plasma (at least 1 function in circulation), immunoglobulins, receptor ligands (e.g., hormones), tissue leakage (e.g., cardiac troponins), and aberrant secretions (e.g., cancer markers). A human proteome detection and quantitation project. The rate of introduction of new protein analytes has remained essentially flat over the past 15 years, averaging 1.5 new proteins per year (median of 1 per year). Protein in plasma which contains albumin. Maintenance of blood pH: Plasma proteins act as acid base buffers and thus maintain the blood pH by neutralizing strong acids and bases. Kasimir-Bauer S. Circulating tumor cells as markers for cancer risk assessment and treatment monitoring. These assays, taken together, provide a reasonable estimate of the scope of the current clinical plasma proteome. The overall total number of unique proteins measured is 205 (Fig. Typical plasma fractionation pools have a volume of about 2000–4000 kg as this is an amount that can be thawed under controlled conditions. Hortin GL, Sviridov D, Anderson NL. 2 ). Ransohoff DF. 2008. http://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/CentersOffices/CDRH/CDRHFOIAElectronicReadingRoom/ucm150022.htm (Accessed September 2009). However, there seems to be little evidence that current LDTs include new blockbuster tests like BNP, or that many current LDTs are progressing onto major IVD platforms (entrenched LDTs with little regulatory burden could have a lasting competitive advantage). Autoantibodies against human proteins formed the largest subset (20 tests; numerous allergen tests were excluded because they involve IgE against nonhuman protein antigens), some of which are aimed at detecting autoimmune disease (e.g., antiacetylcholine receptor antibodies) and some at detecting autoantibodies known to interfere with immunoassays of the protein target (e.g., antithyroglobulin antibodies (11)). Nine other tests have been entered >200 times, including 6 enzymes [amylase, aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), γ-glutamyltransferase (GGT), lipase, and creatine kinase-MB (CK-MB), here considered a protein complex] and 3 high-/medium-abundance plasma proteins (albumin, ferritin, and fibrinogen). plasma protein that is converted to fibrin in the clotting process one of the largest proteins in plasma acute phase reactant synthesized in liver. The water of the plasma is freely exchangeable with that of body cells and other extracellular fluids and is available to maintain the normal state of hydration of all tissues. I obtained molecular weights and normal concentration values from the list of Hortin et al. The second-largest subset involved posttranslational modifications of proteins for which tests exist already in Table 1 (18 tests, of which 6 involve glycosylation and 12 involve proteolytic cleavage and/or cross-linking). Growing biomarker discovery efforts appear to have the potential to kickstart a new wave of diagnostic development. Existing protein tests provide a spectrum of clinical information, including definitive diagnosis of acute events (e.g., cardiac troponin released into blood after a myocardial infarction), prediction of disease risk [C-reactive protein (CRP)1 increases in coronary disease] and detection of disease recurrence (thyroglobulin in metastatic thyroid cancer after thyroid removal). Time will tell whether a revolution in protein diagnostics lies ahead. It furthers the University's objective of excellence in research, scholarship, and education by publishing worldwide, This PDF is available to Subscribers Only. Given the numbers of tests surveyed and the selection of protein analytes by inspection, there is significant potential for error or inexactness in the assembled data. A number of proteins known to be associated with plasma membranes were identified, such as 14-3-3 protein (IDs 514 and 783–788) and calmodulin (IDs 602–605), activators of e.g. Other blood proteins act as enzymes, complement components, protease inhibitors or kinin precursors. 3 ). I obtained the number of tests offered by vendors of major in vitro diagnostic (IVD) instrument platforms by selecting and tabulating versions whose “Vendor” field included 1 of the following: Abbott, Bayer, Beckman, Becton, Hitachi, Dade, Diagnostic Products, Olympus, Ortho, Roche, or Siemens. Petition has accompanying introductory letter to the FDA.. Addona TA, Abbatiello SE, Schilling B, Skates SJ, Mani DR, Bunk DM, et al. The plasma protein therapeutics market studied has been projected to grow with a CAGR of nearly 5.3% over the forecast period. These data were collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) between 1993 and 2000 and by the FDA since February 2000. At the same time, the use of mass spectrometry (MS) as analyte detector in protein measurement may solve two of the most vexing issues with immunoassays: specificity (MS detectors can provide absolute structural specificity for unique-sequence tryptic peptides measured as surrogates for specific analyte proteins in plasma digests, allowing robust interference rejection) and multiplexing (MS detectors can measure >100 peptides at very little incremental cost per added analyte). Unique protein analytes (as defined for FDA-cleared or -approved tests above) for which plasma- or serum-based tests are conducted by reference laboratories were tabulated by inspection of tables created on August 8, 2009, from the test menus on public websites of Quest (Nichols Institute), ARUP, and Mayo Medical Laboratories, which were then merged into a single list maintaining a count of laboratories offering each unique test. Distribution of molecular size, anti-complementary activity, prekallikrein activator (PKA) and prekallikrein, hemagglutinins (Anti-A, B, D), immunoglobulin A, and endotoxins belong to this group. The global market is expected to reach $12.5 million by 2019, from $8 million in 2014, at a CAGR of 9.5% during the forecast period. Docket nr FDA-2008-P-0638. A large majority of the protein analytes (88 of 109, approximately 80%) are typically measured by immunoassay (see online Supplementary Table 1), with the remainder accounted for by enzyme assay (19 of 109, 1 of which uses an antibody) and functional coagulation assay (2 of 109). Global methods of proteomics (14)(15)(16) can now detect >1000 proteins in plasma (5 times the number for which we have specific tests) despite being limited so far to ∼μg/L (ng/mL) sensitivity (roughly 1000-fold less sensitive than the best specific immunoassays). An analysis of all US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approvals for protein-based assays through 2008 reveals 109 unique protein targets in plasma or serum, as well as 62 additional tests for peptides, protein posttranslational modifications, protein complexes, autoantibodies against endogenous proteins, and blood cell proteins. Such a possibility has long been discounted given the conservative structure of the IVD industry, its regulatory load, limited venture investment, and the paucity of attractive new markers to date. Distinguishing protein-coding and noncoding genes in the human genome. Sequence accessions from the SwissProt database (us.expasy.org/sprot/, accessed in August 2009) were added except where protein identification was unacceptably ambiguous (as indicated by ? Circulating nucleic acids in plasma/serum.

Peptides falling beneath the 5-kDa arbitrary cutoff (7 tests), complexes (3 tests), and proteins assayed in blood cells but not in plasma or serum (14 tests) account for the remainder. It also carries away the waste products of cell metabolism from various tissues to the organs responsible for detoxifying and/or excreting them. Among tests implemented >100 times, only 1 was introduced more recently than 1993 [cardiac troponin I (TnI), 1995], whereas 7 of the 13 single-entry tests arrived in that period. We use cookies to help provide and enhance our service and tailor content and ads. In addition, they have increased percentages of B cells and decreased percentages of suppressor T and natural killer cells. The composition and route of administration has to be considered in the context of each patient profile. The waived analytes include 5 enzymes (GGT, AST, ALT, amylase, and alkaline phosphatase), 3 hormones [thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH)], and albumin. Costs for the FDA-approved assays, using average 2008 Medicaid reimbursement rate as a proxy, vary by more than 10-fold, from $9 for albumin to $122 for her-2/neu protein, with an average cost of $29 (median $25). Individual protein analytes appear multiple times in the database, each the result of a CLIA approval and categorization (here called an “entry”). Likewise circulating tissue cells, useful in cell-based assays, have been observed in specific cancers (2) but have yet to be exploited in routine diagnostic medicine. In 17 cases, a moderate version was introduced in the last 15 years after a preexisting high version, and in 12 cases a moderate test was introduced without a high-complexity precursor. The content of process-related impurities, additional biochemical and biological parameters, antibody titres, and other accompanying plasma proteins are of interest as they are relevant to quality. Multi-site assessment of the precision and reproducibility of multiple reaction monitoring-based measurements of proteins in plasma. Tissue leakage products (25%) and receptor ligands (hormones, etc. The primary objective of this analysis was to investigate the number and character of protein analytes currently measured by IVD tests, beginning with those that have been cleared or approved by the FDA. Such a shared platform between biomarker development and the clinical laboratory could potentially eliminate the costly and time-consuming redevelopment of immunoassays for IVD use. 4 ). Skates SJ, Menon U, MacDonald N, Rosenthal AN, Oram DH, Knapp RC, et al. The average rate of FDA approval of new protein-based tests over the last 15 years is thus approximately 1.5 new tests per year (median of 1 per year), a rate that appears to have been essentially constant over this period. Peptides were distinguished from proteins by an arbitrary mass cutoff of 5 kDa. FDA-cleared or -approved protein tests approved under CLIA regulations since 1993. Hemagglutinins, FXIa, and other accompanying plasma proteins removed by certain fractionation or dedicated separation steps have to be implemented in the process. DORA listed a further 34 unique protein tests (in addition to 31 also offered by the reference labs), approximately half of which consist of cytokines and growth factors widely measured in cell biology studies. One critical group is the coagulation proteins and their inhibitors, synthesized primarily in the liver. I collected additional data for analytes listed in Supplementary Table 1 by a manual Web-based search procedure. A … Of the 109 unique FDA-approved protein tests as defined here, 87 (80%) were introduced before 1993 and 22 (20%) in the last 15 years (Fig. Perhaps more important, measurement of changes within individual patients over time using periodic sampling (true personalized medicine, with a personal baseline replacing the current population-based reference interval) allows detection of smaller, and thus earlier, disease-related changes (20). Of the 109 protein analytes, 95 have a high-complexity version (presumably introduced first), and of these, 54 have a moderate-complexity version of the same date (i.e., 1993). The drug has 90% plasma protein binding, so 90 of the drug molecules are bound to albumin and 10 are dissolved. Judging by entry frequency, the most successful tests introduced in the last 15 years (each with at least 10 implementations) are cardiac TnI (1995; 103 implementations), lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] (1997; 62), cancer antigen 15-3 (CA15-3) (1998; 36), pancreatic amylase (2002; 36), cystatin C (2001; 22), NT-proBNP (2002; 18, plus BNP alone 2000; 44), and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR 1997; 18). 5: Let’s say you have 100 molecules of albumin and 100 drug molecules in the blood. IGFBP, insulinlike growth factor–binding protein; IL-2R, interleukin-2 receptor; TnT, troponin T; IGF-II, insulinlike growth factor II; CA27.29, cancer antigen 27.29 (same as CA15-3); LP-PLA2, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2; PCT, procalcitonin; MPO, myeloperoxidase; sMesothelin, soluble mesothelin-related peptide; HE4, cancer antigen, human epididymis protein 4. Approximately 90% of all protein tests ever formally cleared or approved are still in active use: 98 of the 109 tests are offered by 1 of the 3 reference laboratories surveyed, and 85 (78%) are offered by all 3. Specific gravity C. Turbidimetric method D. Kjeldahl technique 32. A further 21 tests have been entered between 101 and 200 times, 37 tests between 11 and 100 times, 28 tests 2–11 times, and 13 tests just once. (8) or from SwissProt (molecular weight). 1 ). Plasma contains 6–8 percent proteins. Hence the absolute count of assay entries is not directly interpretable in terms of the number of distinct assays that have been made to detect the analyte, but is used here as a proxy for the amount of development activity around a given protein analyte. Some of these compounds may bind to plasma proteins and displace drugs with scarce plasma protein-binding, which can cause problems. Among these, proteins frequently have the greatest clinical significance. Despite some ambiguities regarding the specific isoforms and subunit compositions of proteins being measured, as well as the recognized specificity limitations of enzyme and immunoassays (13), overall this assay portfolio compares favorably with current proteomics discovery methods in terms of sensitivity, precision, and site-to-site reproducibility. Repeat entries can indicate that a new assay has been developed (e.g., by a new vendor), that an assay has been improved or changed category, that an existing assay has been implemented on a new instrument platform, or even that the vendor has changed its name. Given the increasing pressure (17) for the FDA to extend the more rigorous regulatory mechanisms of 510(k) and premarket approval (PMA) registration to cover these LDTs (thereby significantly increasing the cost to laboratories offering them, and weeding out poorly validated and perhaps unapprovable analytes), it is in fact possible that the total number of protein tests offered clinically could decline substantially over the next few years. Rifai N, Gillette MA, Carr SA. There are currently two routes of administration for immunoglobulin administration: intravenous and subcutaneous. The lack of such an integrated development pipeline is widely believed to be the largest barrier to increasing the flow of new protein tests. The major factor attributing to the growth of the market is increasing prevalence of immune deficiency disorders, autoimmune disorders, neurological and bleeding disorders. If we were to include related assays targeting peptides, posttranslational modifications, protein complexes, etc., the grand total would be significantly larger: 62 such additional assays were found among those approved by the FDA, but LDTs in these categories were not tabulated. Characterization of the human blood plasma proteome. The ability to use multiplex panels of specific proteins may significantly improve diagnostic performance through use of protein ratios (giving improved internal standardization) and more sophisticated interpretive algorithms. Production scale and purification concepts, such as ethanol fractionation, caprylate fractionation, polyethylene glycol precipitation, chromatographic fractionation, and hybrid methods of ethanol/PEG/caprylate/chromatography, are discussed. Plasma proteins represent an important part of the human proteome. Typical plasma fractionation pools have a volume of about 2000–4000 kg as this is an amount that can be thawed under controlled conditions. DORA 2005–2007: directory of rare analyses. Small molecule metabolites are abundant in plasma, but, being the products rather than the mechanisms of life processes, reveal a limited range of enzymatic and filtration defects. A survey of large reference laboratory test menus and the published DORA yielded an additional 96 unique protein tests applied to plasma or serum (see online Supplementary Table 3). These fall into several groups. One would like to know how many protein tests there are already, at what rate these have been discovered, what aspects of the protein are significant (e.g., concentration, chemical modification), what tests cost in practice, and so on. Arbitrary protein mixtures prepared in buffer increase procoagulant yield produced by hydrophilic glass-induced FXII autoactivation and reduce yield by hydrophobic activators compared with single protein solutions. Clamp M, Fry B, Kamal M, Xie X, Cuff J, Lin MF, et al. E-mail. Shen Y, Kim J, Strittmatter EF, Jacobs JM, Camp DG, 2nd, Fang R, et al. Box 53450, Washington, DC 20009-3450. PAPP-A is one of the largest proteins secreted by the placenta and the embryo during pregnancy.It protects the fetus from the maternal immune system and is also responsible for angiogenesis (development of new … The purification processes of the IVIG preparations of the largest commercial companies are outlined. Overview of the HUPO Plasma Proteome Project: results from the pilot phase with 35 collaborating laboratories and multiple analytical groups, generating a core dataset of 3020 proteins and a publicly-available database. or ∼ in the supplementary table). Young, for protein-based tests and assembled a spreadsheet (see online Supplementary Table 3). Regulatory requirements for viral reduction comprise the screening of donors. The clinical significance of these findings warrants further investigation. PPD hosts qualitative and quantitative information on proteins (including those from MRM-based assays) reported in plasma and serum and hence serves as reference platform for biomarker discovery. Schenk S, Schoenhals GJ, de Souza G, Mann M. A high confidence, manually validated human blood plasma protein reference set. The IgG content in plasma depends on the collection modus and the donation frequency. This work was supported by grants from the National Cancer Institute (NCI; U24 CA126476 to N.L. Anderson NL, Anderson NG, Pearson TW, Borchers CH, Paulovich AG, Patterson SD, et al. The approximately 100 LDTs listed here might serve as an alternative source of new FDA-approvable tests if reality conformed to a naive paradigm in which analytes are introduced as LDTs, then progress to FDA approval on a hospital instrument, and finally mature to a point–of-care device (a process described by knowledgeable IVD executives as requiring 10–20 years per stage).
