Intended Use
AxSYM® Intact PTH is a Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) for the in vitro quantitative determination of intact human parathyroid hormone (I PTH) in human serum or plasma on the AxSYM® system. The AxSYM® I PTH assay is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia.
Device Story
AxSYM Intact PTH is a Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) used on the AxSYM system to quantify intact human parathyroid hormone (I PTH) in serum or plasma. The device uses paired monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies reactive with N-terminal epitopes of PTH (1-84). The assay follows a sandwich principle: sample and reagents are pipetted into a reaction vessel; antibody-antigen complexes bind to microparticles, which are then captured on a glass fiber matrix. After washing, an anti-PTH biotin conjugate and an anti-biotin alkaline phosphatase conjugate are added. Finally, 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate substrate is added, and the resulting fluorescent product is measured by the MEIA optical assembly. The device is used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results are interpreted by clinicians in conjunction with serum calcium levels to support the diagnosis of hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia disorders, such as hyperparathyroidism, hypoparathyroidism, and pseudohypoparathyroidism. The device provides a non-radioactive alternative to traditional immunoradiometric assays (IRMA).
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Method correlation study (n=120) comparing AxSYM I PTH to DSL-8000 ACTIVE IRMA showed high correlation (r=0.97, p<0.0001). Precision studies (within-run and inter-run) performed at three levels (35.3, 202.9, 649.7 pg/mL) with CVs ranging from 5.9% to 9.4%. Analytical sensitivity is ≤ 2.0 pg/mL. Interference testing showed <10% impact from bilirubin, triglycerides, total protein, hemoglobin, and red blood cells.

#### Test Description: 4.1
Parathyroid hormone (PTH, parathyrin) is synthesized as a pre-pro hormone 4.1.1 by the chief cells of the parathyroid glands [1,2]. In normal physiology, PTH levels increase in response to decreased serum calcium and decrease in response to increased serum calcium resulting in a close inverse relationship between PTH and calcium concentrations [1,6]. Abnormal PTH levels can thus be detected by examining this interrelationship. Concurrent increases in PTH and calcium occur in the various forms of hyperparathyroidism, including multiple endocrine neoplasia (MEN) types I and II, parathyroid turnors, and idiopathic hyperparathyroidism [6,7]. Concurrent declines in calcium and PTH occur in the various forms of primary hypoparathyroidism and in disorders affecting PTH secretion, such as hypo- or hyper-magnesemia [8]. Abnormally low calcium levels in the presence of extremely elevated PTH levels can occur in a group of genetic disorders called pseudohypoparathyroidism [9]. Abnormally high calcium levels in the presence of low or normal PTH levels are characteristic of malignancy-associated hypercalcemia secondary to PTH-related peptide (PTHrP) production [10]. Abnormal concentrations and/or actions of PTH with essentially normal serum calcium levels may also occur, e.g. in renal osteodystrophy [11].
NOTE: The bibliography notations used make reference to the Bibliography Section at the end of the AxSYM I PTH Package Insert.
{1}------------------------------------------------
Immunoassays for I-PTH and its two major metabolic fragments have been 4.1.2 developed. Clinical investigations indicate that the diagnostic sensitivities of the Nterminal and C-terminal assays are limited, possibly due in part to variable concentrations of minor fragments and the performance characteristics of the assays [1,4]. Selective measurement of mainly I PTH has theoretical advantages since it may be more reflective of biologically active PTH production and action.
The AxSYM® I PTH assay uses paired monoclonal and polyclonal 4.1.3 antibodies, each reactive with epitopes in the N-terminal portion of intact human PTH (1-84). The polyclonal antibody is biotin labeled. I PTH in the sample serves to bridge the two antibodies.
#### 4.2 Principle Of The Test:
AxSYM I PTH is based on the Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay 4.2.1 (MEIA) technology.
The AxSYM I PTH reagents and sample are pipetted in the following sequence:
#### 4.2.2 SAMPLING
- Sample and all AxSYM® I PTH Reagents required for one test are pipetted by . the sampling probe into various wells of a Reaction Vessel (RV).
The RV is immediately transferred into the Processing enter. Further pipetting is done in the Processing Center by the Processing Probe.
#### PROCESSING 4.2.3
- An aliquot of the reaction mixture containing the antibody-antigen complex . bound to the microparticles is transferred to the matrix cell. The microparticles bind irreversibly to the glass fiber matrix..
- The matrix cell is washed with the TRIS Wash Buffer. ●
- The Anti-PTH: Biotin Conjugate is dispensed onto the matrix cell and binds . with the antibody-antigen complex.
- The matrix cell is washed to remove unbound materials. .
- The Anti-Biotin: Alkaline Phosphatase Conjugate is then dispensed onto the . matrix cell and binds with the biotinylated antibody-antigen complex.
- The matrix cell is washed to remove unbound materials. .
- The substrate, 4-Methylumbelliferyl Phosphate, is added to the matrix cell and . the fluorescent product is measured by the MEIA optical assembly.

#### 4.3 Intended Use:
AxSYM® Intact PTH is a Microparticle Enzyme Immunoassay (MEIA) for the in vitro quantitative determination of intact human parathyroid hormone (I PTH) in human serum or plasma on the AxSYM® system. The AxSYM® I PTH assay is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of hypercalcemia and hypocalcemia.
#### 4.4 Substantial Equivalence:
The AxSYM® Intact PTH assay is substantially equivalent to another 4.4.1 device marketed in the United States. We claim equivalence to the DSL-8000 ACTIVE™ Intact PTH IRMA (K896294).
- To demonstrate substantial equivalence between the two assays, serum and 4.4.2 plasma samples were assayed using both methods. Method correlation between the AxSYM® I PTH and the predicate device was examined using 120 samples. The resulting regression equation was determined to be:
[AxSYM® I PTH] = 0.99 [DSL ACTIVE™ I PTH IRMA] + 10.0 r = 0.97 p < 0.0001
The results of least squares regression analysis indicated very high correlation between the two methods (r = 0.97). The 95% confidence interval about the slope is [95% CI (0.95, 1.05)]. This correlation between the two methods is highly significant (p<0.0001). The 95% CI about the intercept is [95% CI (-11.72, 31.82)]. The intercept is not statistically significant (p<0.35).
Specimen values ranged from 4 - 1961 pg/mL with the AxSYM® I PTH and 6 – 1836 pg/mL with the predicate device, DSL ACTIVE™ Intact PTH IRMA.

AxSYM® I PTH and the predicate device:
N/A = Not Applicable ND = Not Determined
#### Safety & Effectiveness: 4.5
- As explained in Section 4.1 of this submission, the I PTH levels are used in 4.5.1 conjunction with calcium levels as a clinical diagnostic tool to support the diagnosis of a disorder, as explained in the Summary and Explanation of the Test in the beginning of the AxSYM® I PTH Package Insert in Section 6.0. The I PTH assay is not used as a stand-alone test. Clinical interpretation requires simultaneous measurement of serum calcium levels. The levels of I PTH and calcium are repeated over a period of time for a diagnosis and during any type of treatment for effectiveness.
- 4.5.2 The safety of use for both I PTH assays is substantially equivalent, but the AxSYM® I PTH assay has less risk associated with it due to the absence of radioactive materials.
- Therefore, we conclude the safety and effectiveness of both assays are 4.5.3 substantially equivalent and favor the AxSYM® I PTH assay.
{5}------------------------------------------------
### Substantial Equivalence Conclusion 4.6
We conclude that the data and information supplied in this summary provide enough detail and support for our claim of substantial equivalence between the AxSYM® Intact PTH assay and the predicate device, DSL-8000 ACTIVE™ Intact PTH IRMA.
