Intended Use
ARCHITECT® Anti-Tg is a Chemiluminescent Microparticle Immunoassay (CMIA) for the quantitative determination of the IgG class of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (anti-Tg) in human serum and plasma on the ARCHITECT i System. The ARCHITECT Anti-Tg assay is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of thyroid disease. The ARCHITECT® Anti-Tg Calibration of the calibration of the ARCHITECT® i System when used for the quantitative determination of IgG class of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (anti-Tg) in human serum and plasma. The ARCHITECT® Anti-Tg Controls are for the estimation of test precision and the detection of systematic analytical deviations of the ARCHITECT® i System (reagents, calibrators and instrument) when used for the quantitative determination of the IgG class of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (anti-Tg) in human serum and plasma.
Device Description
The ARCHITECT Anti-Tg assay is a two-step immunoassay for the quantitative determination of the IgG class of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (anti-Tg) in human serum and plasma using CMIA technology with flexible assay protocols, referred to as Chemiflex®. In the first step, sample, assay diluent and Tg coated paramagnetic microparticles are combined and incubated. Anti-Tg present in the sample binds to the Tg coated microparticles. After washing, anti-human IgG acridinium labeled conjugate is added in the second step. Following another incubation and wash, pre-trigger and trigger solutions are added to the reaction mixture. The resulting chemiluminescent reaction is measured as relative light units (RLU). A direct relationship exists between the amount of anti-Tg in the sample and the RLUs detected by the ARCHITECT i system optics.
More Information

Not Applicable

No
The description details a standard immunoassay technology (CMIA) and does not mention any AI or ML components in the device's operation or data analysis.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test for quantitative determination of autoantibodies, intended for use as an aid in diagnosis, not for direct therapy.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section states: "The ARCHITECT Anti-Tg assay is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of thyroid disease." This directly indicates its diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines a two-step immunoassay process involving reagents, paramagnetic microparticles, and a chemiluminescent reaction measured by the ARCHITECT i system optics. This involves physical components and chemical reactions, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the ARCHITECT® Anti-Tg assay is for the "quantitative determination of the IgG class of thyroglobulin autoantibodies (anti-Tg) in human serum and plasma." It also states it is "intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of thyroid disease." This clearly indicates the device is used to test samples taken from the human body (serum and plasma) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a "two-step immunoassay" using "human serum and plasma" samples. This further confirms it's a test performed outside the body on biological samples.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device listed, "Nichols Advantage Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies Assay," is also an IVD, which supports the classification of the ARCHITECT Anti-

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The ARCHITECT® Anti-Tg assay is substantially equivalent to the Nichols Advantage Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies assay in terms of precision, linearity, interferences, and stability as demonstrated in nonclinical performance data in this 510(k) submission.

The ARCHITECT Anti-Tg assay demonstrated substantially equivalent to the Nichols Advantage Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies Assay. The sample stability study evaluated ARCHITECT Anti-Ta assay using Lithium Heparin and Serum Separator collection tubes. There was no systematic gain or loss of the delectability of Anti-Tg in serum or plasma samples under any of the storage conditions evaluated in this study. A method concordance using the NCCLS Standard (EP-12A) was also conducted with the ARCHITECT Anti-Tg and the Nichols Advantage Thyroglobulin Autoantibodies assays, and as a result. the two systems demonstrated substantial equivalence as indicated by clinical data in this 510(k) submission.

§ 866.5870 Thyroid autoantibody immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A thyroid autoantibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the thyroid autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues). Measurement of thyroid autoantibodies may aid in the diagnosis of certain thyroid disorders, such as Hashimoto's disease (chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis), nontoxic goiter (enlargement of thyroid gland), Grave's disease (enlargement of the thyroid gland with protrusion of the eyeballs), and cancer of the thyroid.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
