NIAID Virology Quality Assurance (VQA)
NIAID - National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases
About This Grant
The purpose of the NIAID Virology Quality Assurance (VQA) program is to provide a comprehensive quality assessment program for virologic assays for HIV and associated viral pathogens performed on samples collected from participants enrolled in NIAID-sponsored and collaborative multisite clinical studies. The goal of the VQA program is to ensure the validity and inter- and intra-laboratory comparability of virologic laboratory data by providing laboratories with proficiency testing (PT) panels and real-time assay run controls and analyzing PT panel and assay run data within each laboratory and across laboratories participating in the program. The VQA program implements standards of performance for new and existing state-of-the-art virologic assays, develops and employs biostatistical methods relating to the assays, and acquires, tests, stores and dispenses quality control materials (QCMs) and reagents. The VQA program is critical to the scientific integrity of on-going and future studies concerning HIV diagnosis, pathogenesis, drug resistance, and cure, including the assessment of vaccine and treatment efficacy, and post-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP).
