K. Test Principle:

The HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa is an anti-factor Xa one-stage chromogenic assay. When an excess amount of factor Xa is added to a sample containing apixaban, factor Xa is partially neutralized by apixaban. Residual factor Xa is quantified when the synthetic chromogenic substrate is added to the patient sample. The released paranitroaniline (pNA) is released and monitored kinetically at 405 nm. The measured pNA is inversely proportional to apixaban levels. Thus, maximum absorption occurs with low levels of drug, and minimum absorption. occurs with high levels of drug. The same detection principle is employed when lowmolecular weight heparin and unfractionated heparin levels are measured. Heparin is analyzed as a complex with antithrombin present in patient plasma forms an [AT·heparin] complex. The concentration of this complex is dependent on the availability of the patient's endogenous antithrombin. When the synthetic chromogenic substrate is added to the patient sample. the [AT heparin] complex inhibits FXa and residual FXa reacts with the chromogenic substrate resulting in cleavage of pNA. The released pNA is monitored kinetically at 405 nm. The measured pNA is inversely proportional to the low-molecular weight heparin or unfractionated heparin levels.

e. Analytical specificity:

Interference studies were conducted based on the CLSI EP07-A2 guideline. The study design included one representative instrument model and three different reagent lots. Potentially interfering endogenous substances were spiked into the test samples (spiked with apixaban at [ (4) or ) and the control samples. Potentially interfering exogenous substances were spiked into the test samples (i.e. native pooled plasma with apixaban at Mand | | | | | pooled plasma spiked with apixaban at @14) and the control sample was tested in a minimum of four replicates.

None of the substances in the following table (endogenous or exogenous substances) were found to lead to clinicially significant interference.

    The method comparison study was conducted using the HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa assay on the Instrumentation Laboratory ACL TOP 300 CTS, ACL TOP 500 CTS, and ACL TOP 700 CTS by testing n=367 clinical samples collected from patients receiving apixaban at three different U.S. clinical sites. Results from the HemosIL. Liquid Anti-Xa were compared to results from a validated apixaban LC-MS/MS method. Linear regression analyses were performed for the dataset collected for each site. The following table summarizes the line equation from the linear regression analysis performed for the combined dataset.

P. Benefit/Risk Determination

Patient perspectives

This submission did not include specific information on patient perspectives for this device.

Summary of the Assessment of Benefit

The HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa assay is intended for the measurement of apixaban levels in patients at risk of major bleeding or experiencing a bleeding episode. The performance characteristics of the test are evaluated in analytical and clinical validation studies and the data demonstrate acceptable analytical and clinical performance for this intended use. The

benefit of the test is to provide clinicians with an additional assessment tool that is used in conjunction with clinical and other laboratory findings in the management of patients receiving apixaban. Drug levels that are within expected ranges/on-therapy ranges may provide clinicians with reassurance and resulting in continuation of treatment. Detection of drug levels below or above expected ranges/on-therapy range may lead to a change in the anticoagulant regimen. In the preoperative settings, a drug concentration of (D)(4) is currently accepted as the safe-for-treatment threshold for invasive procedures and surgeries. In patients with drug concentrations (019) the procedures/sugeries may be postponed until the drug concentrations are below this threshold. Several factors contribute to the uncertainty for the benefits. The on-therapy range shows (and variability between patients. There is limited information on the relationship between drug concentrations and clinical outcomes. The threshold has not been fully evaluated for its impact on patient outcomes. In addition, apixaban does not require routine monitoring and the drug levels are not used as the basis of dose-adjustment and reversal. Therefore, the extent of uncertainty for the benefits is medium.

Summary of the Assessment of Risk

The risk of the device is associated with inaccurate test results. For apixaban levels around the "on-therapy range", falsely high and falsely low results may lead to inappropriate switching of anticoagulant regimen or continuation of apixaban. At drug levels close to the cutoff for surgeries and invasive procedures () falsely high results may cause delay of life saving surgeries or invasive procedures, whereas falsely low results may increased the risk for perioperative bleeding.

Summary of the Assessment of Benefit-Risk

Considerations of risk mitigation include special controls for performance characteristics addressing analytical and clinical validation, and labeling device performance and limitations (e.g. not intended for the monitoring and dosage adjustment of apixaban). Additionally, the device is labeled "prescription only", "not a stand-alone test" and "should be used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings." Given the combination of the device's indications for use, labeling, and the required general controls and special controls established for this device, the probable benefits would outweigh the probable risks.
