MASTERMIND design for multiple diagnostic focus areas. In this conceptualized scheme, a single patient’s sample would support the evaluation of multiple tests that focus on different diagnostic tasks. Only 1 investigational platform is depicted for each step, although >1 could be evaluated, provided additional platforms are available and sample is not limiting. When there is only 1 test in each domain, the standard clinical assay could serve as the comparator assay.
