Intended Use
The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test system that measures total IgE in human serum. The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is intended for clinical laboratory use. The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System may only be run on the Luminex 100TM Integrated System. The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test system used as an aid in the clinical diagnosis of IgE mediated allergic disorders.
Device Description
ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is a test for the measurement of total IgE in human serum. The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System consists of two components. - 1. Flow Cytometer instrument with software for ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System - 2. ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System Reagents A serum sample is mixed with anti-IgE coupled microspheres. If present, IgE in the sample will bind with the microspheres and form an anti-human IgE / IgE complex. This complex is then sequentially incubated with biotin-labeled-anti-human IgE antibody and fluorescent-labeled-streptavidin. If IgE is present in the sample, the final sandwich complex of anti-human IgE / IgE / biotin-anti IgE / fluorescent-streptavidin will form. Measurement of the fluorescent signal from the sandwich complex is directly proportional to the concentration of total IgE in the sample. The flow cytometer with ImmuneTech ™ Total IgE System specific software will measure total IgE concentrations.

No
The summary describes a standard in vitro diagnostic test system using a flow cytometer and specific reagents to measure IgE concentration based on fluorescent signal. There is no mention of AI or ML in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The software mentioned is likely for controlling the flow cytometer and processing the raw fluorescent data into a concentration value, which is a typical function of such systems and does not inherently imply AI/ML.

No.
Explanation: The device is an in vitro diagnostic test system used to measure total IgE in human serum, which aids in the diagnosis of IgE mediated allergic disorders. It does not treat or cure any condition, but rather provides diagnostic information.

Yes
The text explicitly states in the Intended Use / Indications for Use section that "The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test system". It also mentions it is used as an "aid in the clinical diagnosis of IgE mediated allergic disorders", which directly aligns with the purpose of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of two components: a flow cytometer instrument with software and reagents. This indicates the presence of hardware (flow cytometer) and chemical components (reagents) in addition to the software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The document explicitly states "The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic test system..." and "The ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is intended for clinical laboratory use." It also describes its use as an "aid in the clinical diagnosis of IgE mediated allergic disorders," which is a diagnostic purpose.
  • Device Description: The description details how the system measures total IgE in human serum using reagents and a flow cytometer. This process involves analyzing a biological sample (serum) outside of the body to provide information about a person's health status, which is the definition of an in vitro diagnostic.
  • Clinical Laboratory Use: The intended user is specified as "clinical laboratory use," which is a common setting for IVD devices.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes a summary of performance studies (method comparison, sensitivity, specificity, accuracy, precision), which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their analytical performance.
  • Predicate Device(s): The mention of predicate devices (K020387 MyAllergyTest™ System; K991945 Pharmacia CAP System IgE FEIA) further confirms its classification as an IVD, as predicate devices are used in the regulatory submission process for new IVDs.

All of these points strongly indicate that the ImmuneTech™ Total IgE System is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Ms. Noetzel:

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 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.
