The DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA is for the qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to DEN recombinant antigens (DENRA) in serum for the presumptive clinical laboratory diagnosis of Dengue virus infection. The assay is intended for use only in patients with clinical symptoms consistent with either dengue fever or dengue hemorrhagic fever. Positive results must be confirmed by Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT), or by using the current CDC guidelines for diagnosis of this disease.

Device Description

The DENV Detect™ IgM Capture ELISA is a sandwich-type immunoassay. The test kit includes microtiter wells coated with anti-human IgM antibodies, DEN IgM Negative, and IgM Positive controls, DENV Sample Dilution Buffer, Dengue-derived recombinant antigens (DENRA) and normal cell antigens (NCA). The test kit also contains a HRPlabeled DEN-specific monoclonal antibody and tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate which are used to detect DEN IgM antibodies in the wells.

2. Sample Size for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The "test set" in this context refers to the samples used in the clinical studies to evaluate the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA's performance.

Study Site 1: 197 subjects (394 total samples collected 1-2 weeks apart). Retrospective. Southeast Asia (reference laboratory).
Study Site 2: 212 serially collected archived samples. Retrospective. Western United States (reference lab). Majority from Caribbean, southern/southeastern US; minority from Africa/Asia.
Study Site 3: 289 lab archived samples. Retrospective. Public health lab (country not explicitly stated, but implies US due to specific mention of a US state without dengue outbreaks).
Study Site 4: 199 archived samples. Retrospective. State Dept. of Health in Southern US.
Study Site 5: 55 symptomatic subjects (samples collected at presentation and 4-14 days later, so 110 total samples). Prospective. Dengue endemic region in South America.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

The document does not specify the explicit number or qualifications of experts involved in establishing the ground truth for most studies. It refers to "reference laboratory," "public health laboratory," and "CDC" for confirmatory testing.

Study 1: Ground truth determined by a "reference laboratory using a diagnostic algorithm (validated in-house IgM test result and/or PCR result, and/or a rising IgG titer, and/or a four-fold rise of HAI titer between acute and convalescent blood draw)." No specific expert qualifications are given beyond the lab's general diagnostic capabilities.
Study 2: Ground truth mainly established by "confirmatory PRNT" and "CDC Dengue MAC ELISA at the CDC." Again, specific expert numbers/qualifications are not detailed beyond the implication of CDC diagnostic expertise.
Study 3: Ground truth based on "All testing and diagnosis was performed at the public health laboratory." and "history of dengue incidences in this general area" for assumed dengue negative status. Also PRNT testing was used. No specific expert numbers/qualifications are detailed.
Study 4: Ground truth established by "CDC Dengue IgM (MAC) ELISA" and "PRNT testing." No specific expert numbers/qualifications are detailed beyond CDC.
Study 5: Ground truth established by "Confirmatory PRNT testing." "PRNT changes of 4-fold or greater between visits 1 and 2, indicative of current Dengue infection." No specific expert numbers/qualifications are detailed.

It's implied that these reference laboratories and the CDC possess the necessary expertise for performing these confirmatory tests and making diagnoses.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe a formal adjudication committee or method (like 2+1, 3+1). Instead, the "ground truth" (or "final diagnosis") was established by recognized reference methods:

Study 1: Diagnostic algorithm by the reference lab (validated in-house IgM, PCR, rising IgG titer, four-fold HAI rise).
Study 2: Confirmatory PRNT and CDC Dengue MAC ELISA. For indeterminate/equivocal CDC MAC ELISA results, PRNT was used for final classification.
Study 3: Public health laboratory diagnosis, PRNT testing, and epidemiology (dengue-free area).
Study 4: CDC Dengue IgM (MAC) ELISA and PRNT.
Study 5: Confirmatory PRNT testing, specifically a 4-fold or greater rise in PRNT titer between two visits.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

This is an ELISA diagnostic device, not an AI-powered image analysis or diagnostic support system. Therefore, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study involving human readers and AI assistance is not applicable and was not performed. The device provides a quantitative or qualitative result directly, which is then interpreted by a lab professional.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

The DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA is a standalone diagnostic assay. Its performance, as described in the clinical studies, represents the algorithm-only performance. The ELISA itself is the "algorithm," producing results based on biochemical reactions and optical density measurements. Human involvement is primarily in performing the assay, interpreting the quantitative output (ISR ratios against cut-offs), and making a final clinical diagnosis based on the test result in conjunction with patient symptoms and other clinical information.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used varied slightly across studies but generally involved:

Plaque Reduction Neutralization Test (PRNT): Widely considered the gold standard for serological confirmation of dengue infection.
CDC Dengue MAC ELISA: A well-established IgM capture ELISA used by the CDC as a reference method.
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): For direct detection of viral genetic material, indicating active infection.
Rising IgG Titer / Four-fold rise of HAI titer: Indicative of a seroconversion or a recent infection.
Expert Consensus / Diagnostic Algorithm: In Study 1, a reference laboratory's diagnostic algorithm combined multiple methods.
Outcomes Data / Epidemiological Context: In Study 3, the "dengue non-endemic area" was used as a strong indicator of negative status for many samples.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not explicitly state a separate "training set" in the context of machine learning. For traditional in vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices like this ELISA, the "training" or optimization phase typically involves:

Assay Cut-off Determination: This involved 109 true Positive and 97 True Negative serum samples. This set serves a similar function to a validation set for determining optimal operating points.

The core assay development and optimization (which would be analogous to "training" for a machine learning model) are inherent to the ELISA kit's design and formulation, not a separate data-driven training process in the modern AI sense.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

For the cut-off determination:

109 true Positive and 97 True Negative serum samples were used. How their "true" status was established is not explicitly detailed in this section, but it is implied they were confirmed positive or negative for dengue infection through reliable reference methods, similar to those used in the clinical studies (PRNT, PCR, other validated assays). The statement "true Positive and true Negative" suggests an established and verified diagnosis for these samples.

L. Test Principle:

The DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA consists of one enzymatically amplified sandwichtype immunoassay. In this assay, Dengue IgM Negative Control, Dengue IgM Positive Control and unknown serum samples are diluted with DENV Sample Dilution Buffer, then incubated in microtiter wells which have been coated with anti-human IgM antibodies, followed by incubation with Dengue-derived recombinant antigens (DENRA) and normal cell antigen (NCA) separately. After incubation and washing, the wells are treated with a DEN-specific monoclonal antibody labeled with the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP). After a second incubation and washing step, the wells are incubated with the tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) substrate. An acidic stopping solution is then added and the degree of enzymatic turnover of the substrate is determined by absorbance measurement at 450 nanometers. Above a certain threshold, the ratio of the absorbencies of the DENRA and the control antigen wells determines whether antibodies to Dengue are present.

M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):

1. Analytical performance:
- a. Precision/Reproducibility:

The reproducibility of the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA was evaluated at three sites and by two different operators at each site for five days. All samples (including controls) were run in triplicate. The study was conducted at a Public Health Lab in Florida, at InBios, and at a reference laboratory in the central U.S. Four serum specimens using clinical specimens diluted into an analyte-negative matrix, plus a positive and a negative control, were used. The four serum specimens (not including positive and negative controls) included a negative specimen, a specimen just below the equivocal range, a specimen within the equivocal range, and a positive specimen. The serum dilutions selected also ensured that the analyte concentration in the specimens represented a clinically relevant range. The results are shown in the following table.

Five different clinical studies were conducted using the InBios DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA to test prospectively and retrospectively collected serum samples to establish assay performance.

Study Site 1:

This retrospective study utilized serially collected archived samples from individuals displaying signs and symptoms of Dengue infection. Samples were collected from a select date onwards until a predetermined number of reactive samples were reached. The study was conducted using 197 subjects' sera obtained from a reference laboratory in Southeast Asia. Two sample draws (394 total samples collected 1-2 weeks apart) were available and confirmation of DENV was assessed by different methods in the reference laboratory. The final diagnosis for each subject was determined by the reference laboratory using a diagnostic algorithm (validated in-house IgM test result and/or PCR result, and/or a rising IgG titer, and/or a four-fold rise of HAI titer between acute and

{6}------------------------------------------------

convalescent blood draw). Any one test was used to confirm a positive diagnosis.

All the above samples were sequentially collected and tested by the InBios DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA kit. Positive and negative percent agreements with the reference laboratory final diagnosis are tabulated below as a function of the number of days post onset of fever.

Days postonset fever	Positive PercentAgreement	Negative PercentAgreement	# Equivocalsamples withfinal diagnosisof Positive	# Equivocalsamples withfinal diagnosisof Negative

DENV Detect IgM Performance from Study Site 1

The positive percent agreement (PPA) and negative percent agreement (NPA) are tabulated throughout by considering the "worst-case scenario." That is, equivocal samples are considered false negative for the PPA and equivocal samples are considered false positive for the NPA.

Note: The above summary compares the InBios assay test results to the final diagnosis determined by the reference lab using PCR, HAI, rise in IgG titer and the in-house IgM ELISA.

Study Site 2:

A retrospective study of 212 serially collected archived samples from individuals displaying symptoms of Dengue infection were evaluated in a reference lab in the Western United States. Samples from 2008-2009) were collected from a select date onwards until a predetermined number of reactive samples was reached. The majority of the samples originated from the Caribbean and the southern and southeastern regions of the United States (Texas and Florida): however a minority of the samples may also have originated from Africa and Asia. Of the 212 samples tested. 116 were negative, 67 were positive. Twenty nine specimens fell in the equivocal range and were repeated according to the package insert specifications. Upon retest, 13 equivocal samples were subsequently categorized as negative. 11 were again equivocal, and 5 were categorized as positive.

Due to lack of sample volume or access, confirmatory PRNT was conducted on only 5 of the 11 equivocal samples (with 3/5 or 60% being confirmed as DENV positive) and 70 of the 72 positive samples (with 62/70 or 88.6% being confirmed as DENV positive). A total of 130 samples were not screened by PRNT. All 130 samples that were not screened by PRNT were screened by the CDC Dengue MAC ELISA at the CDC and

{7}------------------------------------------------

categorized as negative, equivocal, indeterminate or positive as determined by the CDC MAC ELISA protocol. Thirteen of the samples screened by the CDC MAC ELISA were categorized as indeterminate (n=9) or equivocal (n=4) and were subsequently tested by PRNT to clarify the sample status. Only 3 of the 9 (33.3%) indeterminate samples screened PRNT positive and 2 of the 4 (50%) of the equivocal samples screened PRNT positive.

In the above calculations, the percent agreements incorporate both the data from the

{8}------------------------------------------------

PRNT and CDC MAC ELISA tables. CDC MAC ELISA equivocal and indeterminate samples (n = 13) were classified by PRNT.

Study Site 3:

The specificity of the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA was evaluated at a public health (b) (4) This retrospective study used 289 lab archived samples (collected 2005-2008) from symptomatic subjects with and without other diseases (including 136 individuals with West Nile Virus, Hepatitis A, B or C, HIV, Legionnaire's Disease, RMSF, and Lyme disease). All testing and diagnosis was performed at the public health laboratory. All samples were collected from individuals (0)(4) state, which has never had an outbreak of Dengue virus. from the same Therefore these samples were assumed to be Dengue virus negative based on the history of dengue incidences in this general area (http://doh.sd.gov/ID/AnnualReport/1997-2007.pdf). After initial testing and re-screening of equivocal samples tested negative, 22 samples repeatedly tested equivocal and 52 samples tested positive. Samples that were either test positive or equivocal in the initial screening were included for PRNT testing (74 samples). It was observed that virtually all of the cross-reactivity was due to West Nile Virus.

Reactivity of Retrospective Samples from Dengue Non-Endemic Area Study Site 3 in the US

4 Virtually all observed DENV PRNT positive samples had low PRNT titers and were identified as West Nile positive serum samples, indicative of WNV cross-reactivity with DENV PRNT (15).

Note: All of the observed false positives and the high number of equivocal samples are due solely to the cross-reactivity observed with West Nile positive samples (see Table 5).

The samples may be further subdivided by the disease status of the individual. For instance, individuals who are West Nile Virus (WNV) positive may cross-react with the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA. The results for Study Site 3 are shown in the following tables.

Negative Percent Agreement for samples with West Nile Virus: (80/136) 58.8% (50.4-66.7%).

None of the 35 samples from subjects without DENV but with RMSF (n = 5), Legionnaires' Disease (n=2), Lyme Disease (n=2), HIV (n=8), Hep A(n=2), Hep B (n=5) or Hep C (n=11) were equivocal or positive by the InBios DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA.

In the 136 subjects without DENV but who had West Nile Virus, 80 were DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA test negative, 16 were in the equivocal range and 40 were test positive.

Study Site 4:

The specificity of the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA was evaluated at a State Dept. of Health located in Southern US using 199 archived samples (collected from 2004-2008) from symptomatic subjects presumed to be DENV negative. Most patients displayed symptoms of headache and fever while others also displayed neurological symptoms. In initial testing. 183 samples were test negative. 10 fell in the equivocal range and were repeated according to the package insert specifications, and 6 were test positive. Upon retest, all 10 samples in the equivocal range were subsequently categorized as test negative.

All 199 samples were further screened at the CDC Dengue IgM (MAC) ELISA to classify the specimens as Dengue negative, equivocal, positive or uninterpretable (non-specific background too high). Please note these classifications are the CDC classifications for their kit. 16 samples were considered uninterpretable by the CDC Dengue IgM (MAC) ELISA but were confirmed negative using PRNT testing. These samples are considered negative in the tables below. One sample tested equivocal and one sample tested positive with the CDC Dengue IgM ELISA.

Study Site 5:

In a prospective study of 55 symptomatic subjects (mean age, 35.1 years - samples collected in 2009) from a Dengue endemic region in South America), each subject had samples collected at presentation as well as at a second visit 4-14 (mean 9) days later and both samples were tested with the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA. Equivocal samples at both visits were re-tested using the DENV Detect IgM Capture ELISA. Confirmatory PRNT testing was performed on samples at visit 1 and at visit 2. PRNT changes of 4-fold or greater between visits 1 and 2. indicative of current Dengue infection (11), were present in 39 subjects. Samples are considered to have a 4-fold increase in PRNT levels if the PRNT value increases from, for instance, PRNT = 10 on the first visit to PRNT = 40 by the second visit for a given Dengue subtype. Samples that demonstrated a PRNT value of <10 that only increased to a PRNT = 10 (n = 4 samples) were not considered to have a 4-fold increase.
