AAV8 Total Antibody Assay

Sponsored testing program eligibility criteria: Patients must be 8 years of age or older and have a confirmed diagnosis of glycogen storage disease type Ia (GSD Ia).
1. AAV8 Total Antibody Assay is offered at no cost to support an FDA-approved therapeutic. While the assay is provided at no cost, shipping supplies and any other expenses, charges, services, costs, materials, or lab tests that are not provided by ARUP are not covered under this program.
No patient, private health plan, government health program, or any other individual or entity shall be billed for this test, and no reimbursement will be sought for any tests or materials provided at no cost in connection with such test. No-cost access to the test is not contingent upon the recommendation, order, prescription, or purchase of any other product or service.
2. The test should be ordered using the ARUP AAV8 Total Antibody Assay test requisition form or via ARUP's web-based ordering interface (available only to existing ARUP clients). The full name of the ordering physician, NPI number, and physician attestation must be included on the ARUP test requisition form to ensure timely testing of the specimen. Incomplete information may delay testing.
3. To send a specimen to ARUP, contact your local hospital/reference lab to determine if they have an existing process for shipping specimens to ARUP laboratories. If not, contact ARUP Client Services at 800-522-2787 to be directed to an alternative ordering mechanism.
4. This testing is being offered by ARUP as part of a collaboration between ARUP and a collaborator. The ordering provider acknowledges that ARUP may report information related to the number of tests ordered and the ordering facility to ARUP’s collaborator. The terms applicable to ARUP’s performance of this test are established through this program and ARUP’s performance is not subject to the services agreement, if any, between ARUP and the ordering facility.
