Intended Use

The Amedica Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of methamphetamine in human urine at a cutoff of 1000 ng/ml. This test kit is used to obtain a visual, qualitative result and is intended for professional use. It is not intended for over the counter sale. This assay provides only a preliminary result. A more specific alternative chemical method is needed to obtain a confirmed result.

Device Story

Lateral flow, competitive immunoassay for methamphetamine detection in human urine; utilizes colloidal gold particles. Urine specimen migrates via capillary action; methamphetamine competes with immobilized conjugates for antibody binding sites. Negative result: colored line appears in test region (insufficient drug to saturate antibodies). Positive result: no colored line in test region (drug concentration >1000 ng/ml). Built-in control line confirms test validity. Intended for professional use in laboratory settings; provides preliminary results requiring confirmation by alternative chemical methods (e.g., GC/MS).

Clinical Evidence

Clinical performance evaluated via correlation study using blind-labeled clinical specimens compared against GC/MS. Study demonstrated >94% agreement with GC/MS results. Additional clinical site study performed at two certified laboratories confirmed suitability for professional use.

Technological Characteristics

Membrane-based lateral flow competitive immunoassay; colloidal gold label; 1000 ng/ml cutoff; visual qualitative readout; manual operation; no electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for professional use for the rapid, qualitative detection of methamphetamine in human urine at a 1000 ng/ml cutoff. Not for point-of-care or over-the-counter use.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A methamphetamine test system is a device intended to measure methamphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in serum, plasma, and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methamphetamine use or overdose.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A methamphetamine test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).

Summary of Safety and Effectiveness ( As required by 21CFR 807.92(c)) DEC 1 6 2002 Device name: Amedica Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test Design and Materials: Membrane based one-step, lateral flow, competitive immunoassay use colloidal gold for visual detection. The test cutoff is1000 ng/ml. Intended Use: The Amedica Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test is a immunochromatographic assay for the rapid detection of methamphetamine in human urine at a cutoff concentration of 1000 ng/ml. This assay has not been evaluated at point-of-care locations and is intended for use by healthcare professionals. This assay provides only a preliminary result. A more specific alternative chemical method is needed to obtain a confirmed result. Test Principle and Description: The Amedica Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test is based on the principle of highly specific competitive immunochemical reactions between antigens and antibodies for the analysis of specific substances in urine. During testing, a urine specimen moves along membrane on the strip by capillary action. When methamphetamine concentration in the urine is below 1000 ng/ml, it is not enough to saturate all of the binding sites of the antibody-coated colored particles in the test strip. The unsaturated antibody-coated particles will then be captured by methamphetamine conjugates immobilized on the strip and a colored line will appear in the test line region. The test result is negative. If the methamphetamine level is above 1000 ng/ml, it is sufficient to occupy all of the binding sites on the antibody-coated particles. The saturated antibody-coated particles will not be captured by methamphetamine conjugate coated on the strip. The colored line will not form in the test region. The test result is positive. The device also provides a built-in control with a different antibody reaction at the control region. This control line should always appear whether or not the drugs or metabolites are present. If the control line does not appear the test cartridge should be discarded. This means that negative urine will produce two colored bands, and positive urine will produce only one band at control region Performance: The product performance was evaluated by correlation study using blind-labeled clinical specimens that have been measured by GC/MS. This study produced > 94% agreement with GC/MS results. In addition, clinical site study was performed at two certified laboratories and demonstrated that Amedica Biotech Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test can be use by professionals to obtain a visual, qualitative detection of drugs of abuse. The results of these study and comparison with Rapid Diagnostics methamphetamine test demonstrated that Amedica Biotech Drug Screen Methamphetamine Test is substantially equivalent to the predicate kit.
