Intended Use

ST AIA-PACK Testosterone is intended for IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC USE ONLY for the quantitative measurement of testosterone in human serum on specific TOSOH AIA System analyzers. Measurement of testosterone is used to aid in the diagnosis and management of conditions involving excess or deficiency of this androgen. This device is intended "For Professional Use" only.

Device Description

The ST AIA-PACK Testosterone is a competitive immunoenzymometric assay which is performed entirely in the AIA-PACK. Testosterone present in the test sample competes with enzyme-labeled testosterone for a limited number of binding sites on a testosterone-specific monoclonal antibody, immobilized on a magnetic solid phase. The magnetic beads are washed to remove urbound enzyme-labeled testosterone and are then incubated with a fluorogenic substrate, 4methylumbelliferyl phosphate (4MUP). The amount of enzyme-labeled testosterone that binds to the beads is inversely proportional to the testosterone concentration in the test sample. A standard curve is constructed, and unknown sample concentrations are calculated using this curve.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the ST AIA-PACK Testosterone device, based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document doesn't explicitly state "acceptance criteria" in a numerical or categorical format for specific metrics. Instead, it presents performance characteristics and compares them to a predicate device to establish substantial equivalence.

Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (Implied by Predicate)Reported Device Performance (ST AIA-PACK Testosterone)

SlopeClose to 1.0 (relative to predicate)0.9562
InterceptClose to 0.0 (relative to predicate)-0.7375
Correlation CoefficientHigh (e.g., >0.95 relative to predicate)0.979
Sample RangeComparable to predicate0.0 - 1107 ng/dL

Inter-run precision %CVLow5.9% or less
Recovery
Spiked samples recoveryAcceptable range85.5% to 113.4%
Diluted samples recoveryAcceptable range91.5% to 113.5%

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size: 71 serum samples
  • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but given the context of a 510(k) submission to the FDA, it is highly likely that the data was collected in a prospective manner for the purpose of demonstrating device performance. The country of origin for the data is also not specified.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

This type of information is not applicable to this submission. The "ground truth" for a quantitative diagnostic assay like this is typically established by the results of a validated reference method (in this case, the predicate device, DPC Coat-A-Count Total Testosterone assay) or a highly accurate laboratory standard, rather than expert consensus on interpretive tasks.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This is not applicable. Adjudication methods (like 2+1 or 3+1) are common in studies involving human interpretation (e.g., imaging studies) where there might be disagreement among experts. For a quantitative assay, the "adjudication" is inherent in the direct measurement and comparison to a reference.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done

No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for devices that assist human readers in making interpretations, such as medical imaging AI. The ST AIA-PACK Testosterone is a standalone quantitative assay device.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was Done

Yes, a standalone study was done. The entire comparative analysis and performance characteristics (precision, recovery) described are for the ST AIA-PACK Testosterone assay functioning as a standalone device, directly measuring testosterone in serum. There is no human interpretative component that the device assists.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth was established by comparison to a predicate device, the DPC Coat-A-Count Total Testosterone assay. This technically represents a "comparative ground truth" where the reference standard is another legally marketed and accepted diagnostic test, rather than a gold standard like pathology or long-term outcomes data.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not specify a separate training set. For in vitro diagnostic assays, especially those based on immunoassay principles, the development and optimization (which could be considered analogous to "training") typically involve iterative design, reagent formulation, and analytical validation experiments using characterized samples, but not necessarily a distinct "training set" in the machine learning sense. The 71 serum samples mentioned are for the comparative analysis (test set) against the predicate.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Since a distinct "training set" is not explicitly mentioned in the context of this 510(k) summary, the method for establishing its "ground truth" is not available in the provided text. The development of the assay itself would have relied on established biochemical principles and extensive internal validation to ensure accuracy and precision, using well-characterized calibrators and controls.

Precision studies demonstrated intra-run precision %CVs of 5.3% or less and inter-run precision %CVs of 5.99 or less. Recovery studies performed on spiked and diluted samples generated recoveries of 85.5% to 113.4% and 91.5% to 113.5%, respectively.

Conclusion:

Considering the excellent correlation between the Tosoh ST AIA-PACK Testosterone Enzyme Immunoassay and the DPC Coat A Count Total Testosterone assay, it can be concluded that the ST AIA-PACK Testosterone is substantially equivalent to the Coat A Count assay, which has been 510(k) cleared. Based on the establishment of substantial equivalence, the safety and effectiveness of the ST Tosoh AIA-PACK Testosterone assay is confirmed.
