No
The summary describes a laboratory test kit for quantitating kappa free light chains, which is a standard biochemical assay and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
The device is intended for the quantitation of specific light chains for diagnostic and monitoring purposes, not for treating or preventing a disease or condition.

Yes

This device is intended to measure kappa free light chain levels in serum and urine, which "aids in the diagnosis and monitoring" of several diseases like multiple myeloma and systemic lupus erythematosus. This directly indicates its use in diagnostics.

No

The 510(k) summary describes a "kit" intended for the quantitation of kappa free light chains in serum and urine using specific laboratory analyzers (Roche Hitachi 911 and Hitachi 912). This strongly suggests a physical kit containing reagents or other consumables, not a software-only device. The lack of any mention of software in the description further supports this conclusion.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that the kit is for the "quantitation of kappa free light chains in serum and urine." This involves testing samples taken from the human body (serum and urine) in vitro (outside the body).
  • Diagnostic Purpose: The intended use also states that the measurement "aids in the diagnosis and monitoring of multiple myelomas, lymphocytic neoplasms, Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia and connective tissue diseases." This clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

These are key characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 866.5550 Immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. An immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques both kappa and lambda types of light chain portions of immunoglobulin molecules in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. In some disease states, an excess of light chains are produced by the antibody-forming cells. These free light chains, unassociated with gamma globulin molecules, can be found in a patient's body fluids and tissues. Measurement of the various amounts of the different types of light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (cancer of antibody-forming cells), lymphocytic neoplasms (cancer of lymphoid tissue), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (increased production of large immunoglobulins), and connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Mr. Geller:

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. Ilsting 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 Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific information about the application of labeling requirements to your device, or questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 594-3084. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.
