More Information

No
The summary describes a standard chemiluminescent immunoassay performed on automated laboratory systems. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any computational analysis beyond basic signal processing and cut-off determination.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test intended for the qualitative detection of total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2. It is used as an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response, not for treating or preventing disease.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "For in vitro diagnostic and laboratory professional use" and is "intended for the qualitative detection of total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2... an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection." This clearly defines it as an in vitro diagnostic device used to aid in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components such as reagent packs, calibrators, and controls, which are used in conjunction with the VITROS Systems hardware. This indicates it is not a software-only device.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The very first line explicitly states "For in vitro diagnostic and laboratory professional use." It also describes the device's purpose as the "qualitative detection of total antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human serum and plasma... using the VITROS ECi/ECiQ/3600 Immunodiagnostic Systems and the VITROS 5600/XT 7600 Integrated Systems." This clearly indicates it's used to test samples taken from the human body outside of the body (in vitro) to diagnose or aid in the diagnosis of a condition (SARS-CoV-2 infection).
  • Device Description: The description details the components used to perform the test on human samples (reagent pack, calibrator, controls) and the systems on which the test is run, all of which are typical for IVD devices.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes detailed information about performance studies such as precision, reproducibility, cross-reactivity, interference, and clinical agreement studies using human samples. These types of studies are required for the validation of IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability.
  • Key Metrics: The inclusion of metrics like Positive Percent Agreement (PPA) and Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) are standard performance indicators for diagnostic tests.

The information provided strongly aligns with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

B Principle of Operation

3

The VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total test is performed using the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total Reagent Pack and the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total Calibrator on the VITROS ECi/ECiQ/3600 Immunodiagnostic Systems and the VITROS 5600/XT 7600 Integrated Systems. An immunometric technique is used; this involves a two-stage reaction. In the first stage antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 present in the sample bind with SARS-CoV-2 spike protein S1 antigen coated on the well. Unbound sample is removed by washing. In the second stage horseradish peroxidase (HRP)- labeled recombinant SARS-CoV-2 spike protein SI antigen is added in the conjugate reagent. The conjugate binds specifically to any anti-SARS-CoV-2 captured on the well in the first stage. Unbound conjugate is removed by the subsequent wash step.

The bound HRP conjugate is measured by a luminescent reaction. A reagent containing luminogenic substrates (a luminol derivative and a peracid salt) and an electron transfer agent is added to the wells. The HRP in the bound conjugate catalyzes the oxidation of the luminol derivative, producing light. The electron transfer agent (a substituted acetanilide) increases the level of light produced and prolongs its emission. The light signals are read by the system.

Calibration Cycle Stability

The purpose of this study was to establish the calibration interval, or how frequently the assay should be calibrated. The calibration interval was established by testing samples on the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total test using a single calibration over time.

In the study, Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics included a panel of 6 precision pool samples. Each panel member was prepared as follows:

  • . Precision Pool 1 (PP1): Control level 1 (Non-Reactive)
  • . Precision Pool 2 (PP2): Control level 2 (Reactive)
  • . Precision Pool 3 (PP3): Calibrator
  • Precision Pool 4 (PP4): High negative EDTA plasma sample .
  • Precision Pool 5 (PP5): Low Positive EDTA plasma sample .
  • Precision Pool 6 (PP6): High Positive EDTA plasma sample .

After a single initial calibration on Day | samples were tested on Day wand up to Day on the VITROS ECi/ECiQ, VITROS 3600, VITROS 5600, and VITROS XT7600.

For each positive sample (PP2, PP4, PP5, and PP6) linear regression analysis was conducted. In addition, percent difference from baseline was calculated as follows:

15/143

The percent difference to baseline should be 1014

The study results support a calibration interval stability of 28 days for the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total test.

IX Benefit/Risk Assessment:

A Summary of the Assessment of Benefit:

The benefit of the assay is the ability to detect Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Total antibodies as an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection. The device could also provide a tool for tracking possible patient exposure. True positive test results provide additional support for the diagnosis of recent or past SARS-CoV-2 infection. Results could be used in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information, as well as other laboratory results to guide patient management. The test results may improve infection control measures and may aid in tracking and reducing transmission of infection. There is currently no SARS-CoV-2 antibody test that has undergone full FDA premarket review to

22

most definitively determine clinical truth of the presence of detectable antibodies for the method comparison study, however this uncertainty could be acceptable, particularly because the sponsor used a comparator that FDA determined is appropriate (SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR devices), which represents the most reasonable alternative to establish clinical truth in the clinical study. This is an acceptable source of uncertainty regarding the benefits of the test.

B Summary of the Assessment of Risk:

The risks associated with the device, when used as intended, are those related to the risk of false test results, which have essentially the same impacts as the risks related to failure to correctly interpret the test results and failure to correctly operate the device as all would cause the user to rely on incorrect information.

A false negative result could be interpreted as indicating that a person did not recently have COVID-19, which may lead a person to take fewer necessary precautions against spreading the virus to others if they are still shedding the virus from a recent infection. This mav increase the risk of transmission. In the context of the current public health emergency, incorrect serological test results used to guide infection control activities could lead to misallocation of resources used for surveillance and prevention. The positive percent agreement performance point estimate of the device observed in the clinical study indicates that false negative results are not likely to occur when the device is used in the intended use population.

A false positive SARS-CoV-2 antibody result could be interpreted as a diagnosis of recent COVID-19, and a clinician may assume a patient may still be shedding the virus, which may result in unnecessary additional testing, quarantine, or self-isolation to prevent the spread of the virus to others. False positive serology test results can lead to an incorrect assessment that the tested person had an immune response to SARS-CoV-2, which may lead the person to take fewer necessary precautions against virus exposure. This may increase the individual's risk of infection and may lead the person to not seek testing if later infected, likely increasing the spread of the disease. In the context of the current public health emergency, incorrect serological test results used to guide infection control activities could lead to misallocation of resources used for surveillance and prevention.

A positive result could be wrongly interpreted as a diagnosis of acute COVID-19 to explain an individual's symptoms and delay correct diagnosis and initiation of appropriate treatment for the actual cause of patient illness. A positive test result could be wrongly interpreted as indicating. that the tested person has immunity to SARS-CoV-2, which may lead the person to take fewer precautions against virus exposure. This may increase the individual's risk of infection and may lead the person to not seek testing if later infected, likely increasing the spread of the disease. A negative result may be misinterpreted as ruling out SARS-CoV-2 infection, with a concomitant delay in the correct diagnosis and treatment.

C Patient Perspectives:

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

23

D Summary of the Assessment of Benefit-Risk:

The risks associated with the device (risk of false test results, failure to correctly interpret the results, and failure to correctly operate the device) are mitigated by labeling information, which will assist the operator in correctly performing the test and will assist healthcare providers in understanding the intended use of the test and evaluating the predictive value of a result based on the analytical and clinical performance of the test. In addition, those risks are mitigated by the use of certain validated specimen collection devices. Further, the risk of false test results and failure to correctly interpret the results are mitigated by certain design verification and validation, including analytical and clinical studies and risk analysis strategies to reduce the likelihood of such errors. Finally, the risk of false test results due to a disease or disorder that presents a public health emergency, or a public health emergency that otherwise exists are addressed by special controls requiring certain testing of characterized samples and labeling information in those situations. The special controls help to ensure that errors will be uncommon and will facilitate accurate assay implementation and interpretation of results. In addition, the device's performance observed in the clinical study suggests that errors will be uncommon and that the assay will provide benefits to patients as an aid in identifying individuals with an adaptive immune response to SARS-CoV-2, indicating recent or prior infection. While general controls alone are insufficient to mitigate the risks associated with the device, the benefits outweigh the risks given the special controls.
