Intended Use
The First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) is a screening test for the rapid detection of MDMA and its metabolites in human urine at a cut-off level of 500 ng/ml. 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 MDMA or its metabolites in a 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 Description
The First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy), like other commercially available drug screening tests, qualitatively measures the presence or absence of MDMA and its 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.
More Information

No
The device description details a chromatographic immunoassay, which is a chemical reaction-based test, and there is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
The device is a screening test for detecting MDMA and its metabolites in urine, providing information and not treating or preventing a disease.

Yes

This device is a screening test for the rapid detection of MDMA and its metabolites in human urine, providing information concerning the presence or absence of these substances. This aligns with the definition of a diagnostic device, which is used to identify or detect a condition or substance.

No

The device description clearly states it is a "rapid chromatographic immunoassay," which is a physical test strip or device that uses chemical reactions to detect substances. This is a hardware-based diagnostic test, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a "screening test for the rapid detection of MDMA and its metabolites in human urine." This involves testing a sample taken from the body (urine) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information about a person's health status (presence of drugs).
  • Device Description: The description further clarifies that it "qualitatively measures the presence or absence of MDMA and its metabolites in urine." This is a diagnostic measurement performed on a biological sample.
  • Consumer Use: While intended for consumer use, this doesn't preclude it from being an IVD. Many IVDs are designed for home use (e.g., pregnancy tests, blood glucose monitors).
  • Predicate Devices: The listed predicate devices are also drug screening tests, which are typically classified as IVDs.

The key characteristics of an IVD are that it is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or screening purposes. This device fits that description perfectly.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

A consumer study using the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) demonstrates that the test exhibits excellent overall performance in the hands of lay users.

Summary of Performance Studies

Study type: Analytical studies. The analytical studies of the identical Applied Biotech SureStep™ MDMA (Ecstasy) Drug Screen Test (K011133) indicate that the drug test reacts specifically with MDMA and its metabolites. The structurally related compounds d- amphetamine, 1-amphetamine, d- methamphetamine, and 1-methamphetamine at concentrations of 10 to 100 ug/ml produce negative test results.
Study type: Consumer study. A consumer study using the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) demonstrates that the test exhibits excellent overall performance in the hands of lay users. The data supports the conclusion that the consumer can use the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) to obtain immediate, preliminary information regarding the possible use of MDMA.

Key Metrics

The cutoff concentration for MDMA is 500 ng/ml.

§ 862.3100 Amphetamine test system.

(a)
Identification. An amphetamine test system is a device intended to measure amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in plasma and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An amphetamine 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).

  • Discussion of Technological Characteristics: The First Check® Home Drug Test VIII. for MDMA (Ecstasy), like other commercially available drug screening tests, qualitatively measures the presence or absence of MDMA and its 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. Examples of predicate devices include the First Check® Home Drug Tests using a single or a multi-drug display. The analytical studies of the identical Applied Biotech SureStep™ MDMA (Ecstasy) Drug Screen Test (K011133) indicate that the drug test reacts specifically with MDMA and its metabolites. The structurally related compounds d- amphetamine, 1amphetamine, d- methamphetamine, and 1-methamphetamine at concentrations of 10 to 100 ug/ml produce negative test results. A consumer study using the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) demonstrates that the test exhibits excellent overall performance in the hands of lay users. The data supports the conclusion that the consumer can use the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) to obtain immediate, preliminary information regarding the possible use of MDMA. The cutoff concentration for MDMA is 500 ng/ml.
  • IX. Safety and Effectiveness: Because the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) is identical to the Applied Biotech SureStep™ MDMA (Ecstasy) Drug Screen Test that is legally marketed under K011133, 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 MDMA and its metabolite. Because the labeling of the First Check® Home Drug Test for MDMA (Ecstasy) is substantially equivalent to a variety of rapid screening tests currently in commercial distribution, including the Phamatech 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 First Check® 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.
