Intended Use
The First Check® Home Drug Test Panel 2 is an educational screening test for the rapid detection of marijuana and cocaine and/or their metabolites in human urine at cut-off levels of 50ng/mL and 300ng/mL, respectively. The test is intended for consumer use as the first step in a two step process to provide consumers, including but not limited to concerned parents, with information concerning the presence or absence of the two drugs listed above in a human urine sample. Such information is beneficial to consumer efforts to comply with applicable laws and/or societal expectations. Information regarding second step confirmatory testing is provided.
Device Story
First Check® Home Drug Test Panel 2 is an over-the-counter, one-step, rapid chromatographic immunoassay for qualitative detection of marijuana and cocaine metabolites in human urine. User applies urine sample to test card well; device utilizes antibody/target drug/antibody complex formation principle to produce visual color change indicating presence or absence of drugs. Designed for home use by lay users (e.g., parents) to obtain preliminary information; results intended to guide further confirmatory testing if necessary. Device provides immediate visual output for consumer interpretation; facilitates compliance with societal expectations or personal health monitoring.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on bench testing and comparison of technological characteristics to legally marketed predicate devices. Performance is established via analytical cutoff concentrations (50ng/mL for THC, 300ng/mL for COC) and historical consumer usage data.
Technological Characteristics
One-step, rapid chromatographic immunoassay. Principle: recognition and formation of specific antibody/target drug/antibody complexes. Cut-off concentrations: 50ng/mL (THC), 300ng/mL (COC). Form factor: test card with sample well. No electronic components or software.
Indications for Use
Indicated for consumers, including parents, for rapid, preliminary screening of human urine for marijuana and cocaine metabolites. Cut-off levels: 50ng/mL for THC, 300ng/mL for COC. Intended as first step in two-step process; confirmatory testing required for positive results.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cannabinoid test system is a device intended to measure any of the cannabinoids, hallucinogenic compounds endogenous to marihuana, in serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. Cannabinoid compounds include delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol, cannabinol, and cannabichromene. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of cannabinoid use or abuse and in monitoring levels of cannabinoids during clinical investigational use.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A cannabinoid 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).

- Common Name: At home drugs of abuse rapid screening test for IV. marijuana and cocaine in urine.
- Classification Name: Immunoassay for the qualitative detection of drugs V. of abuse in urine.
- VI. The Marketed Products to Which Equivalence is Claimed: The First Check® Home Drug Test Panel 2 that is the subject of this submission is identical to the Applied Biotech SureStep™ Drug Screen Multi Test in terms of intended use, product design, performance characteristics, materials of construction, and manufacturing process.

Image /page/1/Picture/1 description: The image is a black rectangle that is tilted slightly to the left. The rectangle is solid black, and there are a few small white spots near the bottom. The background is white. The rectangle is not perfectly rectangular, as the top and bottom edges are slightly curved.
- VIII. Discussion of Technological Characteristics: The First Check® Home Drug Test Panel 2. like many commercially available drug screening tests. qualitatively measures the presence or absence of marijuana, and cocaine, and/or their metabolites in urine, using a one step, rapid chromatographic immunoassay which operates under the principle of recognition and formation of specific antibody/target drug/antibody complexes. The cutoff concentration for THC is 50ng/mL. The cut-off concentration for COC is 300ng/mL.
- Safety and Effectiveness: Because the First Check® Home Drug Test IX. Panel 2 is identical to the Applied Biotech SureStep™ Drug Screen Multi Test that is legally marketed under K972425, and because no special skills, training, education, or licensure are required to transfer a dropper level of urine sample into the test card well, there is no issue regarding the safety or effectiveness of the product to perform its intended function, i.e., to screen urine for the presence or absence of the listed drugs and their metabolites. Because the labeling of the First Check® Home Drug Test Panel 2 is substantially equivalent to a variety of rapid screening tests currently in commercial distribution, including the Phamatech QuickScreen™ At Home Drug Test, and there have been no reports of consumer inability to follow instructions or interpret results during the twenty-four months in which the product line has been purchased by the general public and used in quantities exceeding 200,000 tests, it is concluded that the product can be used effectively by the lay user.
