Combined use of autoantibodies (IA-2 autoantibody, GAD autoantibody, insulin autoantibody, cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies) in type 1 diabetes: Combinatorial Islet Autoantibody Workshop

Sydney Children's Hospital, Randwick, New South Wales, Australia.
The aim of this workshop was to assess the ability of individual
autoantibody (ab) assays and their use in combination to discriminate
between type 1 diabetic and control sera. Coded aliquots of sera were
measured in a total of 119 assays by 49 participating laboratories in 17
countries. The sera were from 51 patients with new onset type 1 diabetes
and 101 healthy control subjects with no family history of diabetes. In the
final analysis, data on diabetic sera were restricted to 43 subjects
younger than age 30 years. The laboratories were asked to report results
for these sera using their currently available anti-islet autoantibody
assays. In addition, they were asked to combine information from their
assays to classify sera as having high, moderate, or low probability of
originating from a patient with type 1 diabetes. Actual strategies for
combining assays were determined by each laboratory. There were no
significant differences in sensitivity among 19 radioimmunoassays (RIAs)
for IA-2 autoantibodies (cytoplasmic islet cell antibody [ICA] 512) using
different constructs that included the intracellular portion of the
molecule (mean sensitivity 73%). However, an enzyme-linked immunosorbent
assay (ELISA) using the extracellular portion of the IA-2 molecule did not
discriminate between diabetic and control sera. Among GAD autoantibody
assays that achieved sensitivity >70%, 26 were RIAs and one was an
ELISA. When the sera were ranked according to their autoantibody levels,
the concordance for insulin autoantibodies (IAAs) in different laboratories
was markedly less than for IA-2ab and GADab. Using a combination of
autoantibody assays, several laboratories achieved excellent discrimination
between diabetic and control sera (sensitivity up to 80% with
false-positive rate of 0%). A variety of strategies for combining
information from different assays were successful (e.g., those including
and excluding ICA), and no one strategy emerged as clearly superior. In
conclusion, IA-2/ICA512 autoantibodies are a marker of type 1 diabetes and
can be measured consistently by most assays. Several different strategies
for combining assays achieved high sensitivity with a low false-positive
rate.
