Intended Use
IMMULITE® Opiates ScreenOpiates Screen is a solid-phase, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay for use with the IMMULITE® Automated Analyzer and is designed for use as a semi-quantitative screen for opiates and metabolites in urine. It is intended strictly for in vitro diagnostic use in the context of a program involving an established confirmatory test for opiates.
Device Story
IMMULITE Opiates Screen is a solid-phase, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay used with the IMMULITE Automated Analyzer. It processes urine samples to detect opiates and metabolites (e.g., morphine-3-glucuronide). The device provides semi-quantitative results, serving as a preliminary screen that requires follow-up with an established confirmatory test. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use in clinical settings. Healthcare providers use the output to identify potential opiate presence, aiding in the diagnosis of use or overdose and monitoring therapy. The system includes an optional Control Module for monitoring assay performance and accuracy.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Method comparison study performed on 618 urine samples comparing IMMULITE Opiates Screen against Roche Abuscreen OnLine, Syva Emit d.a.u. Opiate Assay, and GC/MS. Results showed 97.6% agreement with Roche (96.0% sensitivity, 98.6% specificity), 98.4% agreement with Syva (97.6% sensitivity, 98.9% specificity), and 96.8% agreement with GC/MS (97.9% sensitivity, 96.1% specificity).
Technological Characteristics
Solid-phase, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay. Designed for use with the IMMULITE Automated Analyzer. Includes liquid-form bi-level control module for performance monitoring. Assay targets morphine-3-glucuronide in urine.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the semi-quantitative screening of opiates and metabolites in human urine to assist in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and monitoring of opiate administration.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An opiate test system is a device intended to measure any of the addictive narcotic pain-relieving opiate drugs in blood, serum, urine, gastric contents, and saliva. An opiate is any natural or synthetic drug that has morphine-like pharmocological actions. The opiates include drugs such as morphine, morphine glucoronide, heroin, codeine, nalorphine, and meperedine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and in monitoring the levels of opiate administration to ensure appropriate therapy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An opiate 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).

Substantial Equivalent Predicate Device: Emit d.a.u. Opiate Assay MultiPak (K842677), manufactured by Syva Co. Palo Alto, CA
Description and Intended Use of Device: IMMULITE® Opiates ScreenOpiates Screen is a solid-phase, chemiluminescent enzyme immunoassay for use with the IMMULITE® Automated Analyzer and is designed for use as a semi-quantitative screen for opiates and metabolites in urine. It is intended strictly for in vitro diagnostic use in the context of a program involving an established confirmatory test for opiates.
Substantial Equivalence Claim: Diagnostic Products Corporation (DPC) asserts that DPC's IMMULITE® Opiates Screen is substantially equivalent to Syva's Emit d.a.u. Opiates Assay MultiPak.
Intended Use Equivalence: Each product is designed for the semi-quantitative measurement of opiates in urine. Each product is intended strictly for in vitro diagnostic use, and each product provides a preliminary analytical test result.
Method Comparison: The IMMULITE Opiates Screen procedure was compared to two commercially available immunoassays for opiates (Roche Abuscreen OnLine, manufactured by Roche Diagnostic Systems and Emit d.a.u. Opiate Assay, manufactured by Syva) and GC/MS on a total of 618 urine samples with a range from nondetectable to over $1000\mathrm{ng/mL}$. Randomly selected drug-free and drug-containing urine samples were obtained from the Uddevalla Hospital in Uddevalla Sjukhus, Switzerland and tested on site. The results of the comparisons are presented in the tables below.

In the comparison between IMMULITE and Syva Emit, 2 of the 6 "false negative" cases were negative by GC/MS and none of the 4 "false positive" cases were positive by GC/MS.
## IMMULITE Opiates Screen Control Module
DPC's Opiates Screen Control Module is an assayed, bi-level control intended strictly for in vitro use in monitoring the performance and accuracy of the IMMULITE Opiates Screen assay. The two controls are supplied in liquid form, in 2 mL aliquots, and are sold separately from the IMMULITE Opiates Screen Kit.
The control values are lot-specific, i.e., the control values are established for each control lot. The values for the Opiate controls are targeted at approximately 195 and 453 ng/mL.
## Clinical Studies:
Not applicable
## Conclusion:
The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the device is safe, effective, and performs as well as or better than the legally marketed device.
