COLORPAC TOXIN A

{0}------------------------------------------------ K980185 # JU 17 1998 # SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS SUBMITTED BY: Colleen Rohrbeck Becton Dickinson Microbiology Systems 7 Loveton Circle Sparks, MD 21152 NAME OF DEVICE: | Trade Name: | ColorPAC™ Toxin A | |--------------------------|---------------------------------------| | Common Name/Description: | Reagents, Clostridium difficile Toxin | PREDICATE DEVICE: Cytotoxin B ## DEVICE DESCRIPTION: INTENDED USE: ColorPAC™ Toxin A is a rapid chromatographic assay for the qualitative detection of Clostrictium difficile toxin A (enterotoxin) in stool specimens from patients suspected of having C. difficile associated disease. The test can also be used for the confirmation of suspect colonies of toxigenic C. difficile from agar plates or BHI broth. This assay is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of C. difficile associated disease. ## KIT CONTENTS: The following components are included in the ColorPAC™ Toxin A Test kit. | Reagent 1 | (30 ml) | Sample Buffer: Buffered saline with a mucolytic<br>agent, 1% detergent. | |-----------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Reagent W | (2.3 ml) | Wash Reagent: Buffered saline solution with<br>bovine protein stabilizer, 0.1 % detergent. | | Reagent 2 | (1.5 ml) | Detector A: Rabbit C. difficile toxin A antibody<br>coated liposomes. | | Reagent 3 | (1.5 ml) | Detector B: Rabbit antibody coated liposomes<br>specific for Detector Reagent A. | {1}------------------------------------------------ | Control + | (1.0 ml) | Positive Control: Buffered saline solution with<br>bovine protein stabilizer, inactivated C. difficile<br>toxin A. | |-----------------|----------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | Control - | (1.0 ml) | Negative Control: Buffered saline solution with<br>bovine protein stabilizer. | | | | Reagents and controls each contain 0.2%<br>sodium azide (preservative) | | 30 Test Devices | | Each containing a test strip coated with<br>monoclonal C. difficile toxin A antibody and C.<br>difficile toxin A. | 30 SQ-EASY™ Tubes and Filter Tips, 30 Applicator Sticks, 30 Transfer Pipets, 1 Dropper Rod PRINCIPLE OF PROCEDURE: The ColorPAC Toxin A test is comprised of a capture line consisting of C. difficile toxin A antibody immobilized on a chromatographic test strip which is contained within a test device. A specimen (stool, colonies, or BHI broth) is diluted with sample buffer and added to the sample well of the test device. The diluted sample wicks up the test strip by capillary action. Toxin A, if present, binds to the capture antibody at the test line as the specimen migrates across the test strip. The wash and remaining reagents are added to the reagent well of the test device. Upon addition of Detector A, toxin A antibody coated liposomes containing a pink dye migrate across the test strip and attach to the C. difficile toxin A antigen that was bound to the test strip in the previous step. Color formation is enhanced upon addition of a second liposome reagent, Detector B, that binds to the complex formed between Detector A and sample antigen at the test line. Following the final wash, the reactions are read visually. If toxin A antigen is detected in the patient specimen, a pink test line and a pink control line will appear, indicating a positive result. In the absence of toxin A, only the pink control line will appear, indicating a negative result. The result is uninterpretable if there is no pink control line or if the background obscures reading of the control line. 62 {2}------------------------------------------------ # PERFORMANCE DATA: # ANALYTICAL STUDIES: - Cross-Reactivity 1. The ColorPAC™ Toxin A test was evaluated for cross reactivity by The ColorPACT® Toxin A tost wateria, yeast, viruses and parasites) into toxin A positive and toxin A negative stool specimens to a final concentration of 107-10° CFUlmi for bacteria and yeast, 1082- - 1082 Concentration of 10 -10 -10 -10 - 10 - narasites/ml. The only organism shown to I City of the viruses and 10 penic isolate of Clostridium sordellii (VPI a oss-leact was a highly toxigente is Cowan strain ATCC 12598, which 9040). The Staphyloooooo aan cross reactivity. In addition, Escherichia produces protein A, and 43895 which produce Shiga-like toxins, did not show any cross reactivity. #### 2. Limit of Detection The analytical sensitivity of the ColorPAC Toxin A test was performed by The analytical sensitivity of a lo of toxin A into 5 speciments each of liquid, seemi-solid, and solid stools. Seeded specimens were tested in triplicate. The limit of detection range for liquid, semi-solid, and solid stool specimens was 1.4-5.2, 1.6-18.7, 3.2-22.6 ng/ml, respectively. - Interfering Substances 3. The evaluation of interfering substances was performed by seeding substances that may be present in stool specimens from patients substarious a lat may be provins associated disease. ColorPAC Toxin A test results are not affected by ampicillin, cephalexin, metronidazole, vancomycin, barium sulfate, laxatives, blood, and antidiarrheal medications. - Stability of Stool Specimens with Known Amounts of Toxin A 4. Multiple freeze thaw cycles (up to three) had no significant effect on the assay. A subset of clinical trial samples that were tested at one site demonstrated that specimens can be stored up to 72 hours at 2-8°C . If specimens are to be tested after 72 hours, they should be frozen at -70°C immediately upon receipt in the laboratory. Specimens may be frozen up to 2 months. {3}------------------------------------------------ # CLINICAL STUDIES: ### ColorPAC Toxin A vs. Cytotoxin B 1.
