AiPlex® APS

Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS) microarray solution for the MosaiQ platform.

Designed to provide APS diagnostic insights & workflow efficiency.

Antiphospholipid Syndrome (APS)

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is a chronic, systemic autoimmune disease characterized by vascular thrombosis (blood clots), pregnancy complications (such as recurrent early miscarriages and late pregnancy losses), and other organ-related symptoms. These events occur in individuals who test persistently positive for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL).1-3
While there is no known cure, early identification and appropriate treatment are key to reducing the risk of complications and improving outcomes.1,2

Types of APS: usually classified into three main forms.1,2

  • Primary APS: occurs without other underlying autoimmune disorders.
  • Secondary APS: occurs in association with other autoimmune diseases, most often, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
  • Catastrophic APS: a rare but severe life-threatening form of multiorgan thrombosis (widespread clotting) occurring in less than 1% of patients.

The 2023 American College of Rheumatology (ACR) / European Alliance of Associations for Rheumatology (EULAR) Antiphospholipid Syndrome Classification Criteria3 consider both clinical and laboratory features. Apart from an aPL test by coagulation-based functional assay, the laboratory criteria include the detection of both IgG and IgM isotypes for the following antiphospholipid antibodies3:

  • Anti-β2-glycoprotein-I antibodies (aβ2GPI)
  • Anti-cardiolipin antibodies (aCL)
aβ2GPI

Anti-cardiolipin (aCL) – recognised for its good sensitivity
Anti-Beta-2 Glycoprotein I (aβ2GPI) – recognized for its good specificity3

Fast, Easy, Comprehensive

AliveDx planar microarray supporting diagnosis of AiPlex APS, is designed to deliver rapid in-vitro testing, helping to reduce the time to results for patients. The MosaiQ solution supports the potential urgency of these tests, combining multiple results in one single test with no calibration required.

Designed to provide comprehensive APS
diagnostic insights and workflow efficiency

The AiPlex APS microarray contains key markers recommended by the 2023 ACR/EULAR Antiphospholipid Syndrome Classification Criteria3.

  • Multiple insights in one report with only 20µl patient sample. One microarray provides up to 4 individual results.
  • Saves valuable time while avoiding human errors with a standardized master curve embedded into RFID* tags, included with all reagents and microarrays4.
  • Reduces hands-on time and storage space with ready for use, concentrated onboard reagents and buffers.

AiPlex APS for the MosaiQ platform is designed to help reduce time-to-diagnosis for patients with Antiphospholipid Syndrome
