More Information

No
The summary describes a quantitative immunoassay for alpha-1-antitrypsin using turbidimetry on a specific instrument. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any other technology typically associated with AI/ML applications in medical devices. The performance studies focus on method comparison and precision, which are standard for this type of assay.

No
The device is described as an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device used for the quantitative determination of alpha-1-antitrypsin concentration as an aid in diagnosis, not for treating or providing therapy.

Yes The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of alpha-1-antitrypsin concentration in human serum or plasma... as an aid in the diagnosis of juvenile and adult cirrhosis of the liver and pulmonary emphysema."

No

The device description explicitly states it is a reagent kit (Quantia A1-AT, Quantia PROTEINS Control, Quantia PROTEINS standard) used for in vitro diagnostic testing on a specific hardware system (AEROSET® system). This involves physical components and chemical reactions, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The description explicitly states the device is "intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of alpha-1-antitrypsin concentration in human serum or plasma... as an aid in the diagnosis of juvenile and adult cirrhosis of the liver and pulmonary emphysema." The phrase "in vitro" and the use of human biological samples for diagnostic purposes are key indicators of an IVD.
  • Device Description: The description reiterates the "in vitro quantitative determination" and the use of human serum or plasma.
  • Quantia PROTEINS Control and Standard: The descriptions for the control and standard also state "For in vitro diagnostic use."
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device listed (N Antisera to Human alpha-1-Antitrypsin) is also an IVD, which is a strong indicator that the subject device is in the same category.

§ 866.5130

Alpha -1-antitrypsin immunological test system.(a)
Identification. Analpha -1-antitrypsin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques thealpha -1-antitrypsin (a plasma protein) in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. The measurements aid in the diagnosis of several conditions including juvenile and adult cirrhosis of the liver. In addition,alpha -1-antitrypsin deficiency has been associated with pulmonary emphysema.(b)

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.
