The device description and performance studies indicate a standard immunoassay test with visual interpretation, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.
No
The device is an in vitro diagnostic test for detecting THC in human urine, providing a preliminary qualitative result. It does not treat or alleviate a medical condition, which is the purpose of a therapeutic device.
Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The Amedica Drug Screen THC Test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of THC in human urine..."
No
The device description clearly states it is a "Membrane based one-step, lateral flow, competitive immunoassay use colloidal gold for visual detection," indicating it is a physical test kit with hardware components, not software only.
Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states: "The Amedica Drug Screen THC Test is an in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid detection of THC in human urine..."
- Device Description: The description of the device as a "Membrane based one-step, lateral flow, competitive immunoassay" is consistent with the technology used in many IVD tests.
- Sample Type: The test is performed on "human urine," which is a biological sample tested outside of the body, a key characteristic of IVD tests.
- Purpose: The purpose is to detect a substance (THC) in a biological sample for diagnostic purposes (in this case, drug screening).
The information provided clearly identifies the device as an in vitro diagnostic test.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Amedica Drug Screen THC Test is an immunochromatographic assay for the rapid detection of THC in human urine at a cutoff concentration of 50 ng/ml. This assay has not been evaluated at point-of-care locations and is intended for use by healthcare professionals. This assay provides only a preliminary result. A more specific alternative chemical method is needed to obtain a confirmed result.

Device Description
Membrane based one-step, lateral flow, competitive immunoassay use colloidal gold for visual detection. The test cutoff is 50 ng/ml.
The Amedica Drug Screen THC Test is based on the principle of highly specific competitive immunochemical reactions between and antibodies for the analysis of specific substances in urine. During testing, a urine specimen moves along membrane on the strip by capillary action. When THC concentration in the urine is below 50 ng/ml, it is not enough to saturate all of the binding sites of the antibody-coated colored particles in the test strip. The unsaturated antibody-coated particles will then be captured by THC conjugates immobilized on the strip and a colored line will appear in the test region. The test result is negative. If the THC level is above 50 ng/ml, it is sufficient to occupy all of the binding sites on the antibody-coated particles. The saturated antibody-coated particles will not be captured by THC conjugate coated on the strip. The colored line will not form in the test region. The test result is positive. The device also provides a built-in control with a different antigen/antibody reaction at the control region. This control line should always appear whether or not the drugs or metabolites are present. If the control line does not appear the test result is invalid. This means that negative urine will produce two colored bands, and positive urine will produce only one band at control region.

§ 862.3870 Cannabinoid test system.
(a)
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 includedelta -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.(b)
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).

Dear Mr. Chen:
Re:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices. good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
