Standardisation of Genome Amplification
Techniques (SoGAT) - AIMS
•Lead the development of WHO Reference Reagents and
International Standards (ISs) suitable for NAT and serological
infectious disease assays (for screening of blood donations, plasma
pool testing and diagnostics)
•Provide guidance on the preparation of external control materials
calibrated against the WHO ISs to be included in each run to ensure
the reliability of the results
•Understand the relationship between clinical samples and the WHO
ISs
•Promote standardisation of NAT and serological assays through
inter-laboratory comparison studies or collaborations with EQA
providers
•Provide a forum for the exchange of information to develop standards
to support new technologies
•Provide a forum to react quickly to the standardisation needs of
emerging or re-emerging pathogens

Activities of SoGAT
Forum for scientific and clinical experts, EQA
providers and standards producers
• To prioritise public health/clinical need for
standards
• To review and assess the impact of new
technologies
• To provide early technical expert review of data
from collaborative studies for primary standards
• To review issues pertaining to existing
standards
• To disseminate outputs to the wider scientific
community

New Priorities – Emerging Infections
• Ebola (2014), Zika (2015) highlights need for
preparedness
• Rapid response in diagnostics development
benefits from availability of existing standards
• The work of SoGAT supported by WHO,
InnovateUK, CEPI
• Identifying the next outbreak is best guess
• Need is beyond NAT techniques alone

New Priorities - AMR
• Anti-Microbial Resistance is one of the greatest
challenges facing modern medicine
• Multiple pathways to overcome this issue
• New antibiotics
• Better use of antibiotics
• AMR diagnostics
• Point of Care diagnostics
• POC/POI use of NAT assays for respiratory
viruses
• WHO ECBS endorsed projects to establish Int’l
Standards for FluA/FluB/RSV

New Priorities – AMR
• Antimicrobial Resistance also encompasses
impact of anti-viral resistance
• Accurate/harmonised calibration critical for long
term management of chronic viral
infections(HIV)/informing virus cure (HCV)
• Detection of specific variants as important as
generic load

Matrix?
• Neither approach is perfect

Conclusions
• SoGAT continues in an ongoing programme to
harmonise data from NAT based assays for infectious
disease diagnostics
– Priorities are driven by health need and health impact
– Endeavours to respond to new developments quickly
• Programme of standards development for next 5/6
years along with replacement programmes for popular
reagents.
• Principles established for infectious agents now being
applied elsewhere eg Genomics
• Key phase of work is the dissemination of the progress
and materials made and the impact that their use can
bring to improving public health and clinical
management.
