Intended Use

The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT is used as a rapid qualitative procedure for susceptibility testing of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, from culture to pyrazinamide (PZA). The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT is used with the ESP Culture System II (ESP) and the VersaTREK® Microbial Detection System (VTI).

Device Description

The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA susceptibility testing kit is used with the VersaTREK MYCO culture bottle and performed on the ESP Culture System II and on the VersaTREK® Microbial Detection System. The MYCO bottles are supplemented with Myco Growth Supplement and VersaTREK® MYCO PZA reagent and prepared with the appropriate dilution of pyrazinamide as the mechanism for performing the susceptibility test.

The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA susceptibility test utilizes a 3 to 15 day testing protocol. A standard suspension of Mycobacterium tuberculosis growth is prepared from a liquid (seed inoculum). 0.5 mL is inoculated into a Growth Control bottle (drug-free), and a bottle containing PZA (both bottles are referred to as an AST set). The test determination is based upon growth of the M. tuberculosis isolate in the Growth Control Bottle compared to the growth in the drug-containing bottle.

At the completion of the PZA susceptibility testing protocol, the determination of susceptible or resistant is performed manually by the user, by comparing the time to detection of the Growth Control Bottle to the PZA test bottle.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria / Performance AspectReported Device Performance
Critical PZA ConcentrationSet at 300 µg/mL. MIC results for susceptible strains were ≤200 µg/mL. Verification with resistant strains confirmed this cutoff.
Lot Reproducibility (Analytical)100% for seeded inoculum across 4 well-characterized strains (2 ATCC, 2 CDC), tested in triplicate on 3 separate days with 3 different reagent lots. No difference in results for susceptible strains tested at various concentrations, and all resistant strains remained resistant. 8 lots of PZA, 7 Myco broth, and 6 Myco GS showed acceptable reproducibility.
CDC Challenge Panel Testing100% overall agreement with BACTEC and expected results for 10 CDC Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains.
Equivalence between VersaTREK and ESP SystemsNo significant difference in recovery of microorganisms, time to detection, or M. tuberculosis and PZA test results between ESP Culture System II and the VersaTREK Microbial Detection System.
Lot Reproducibility (Clinical)≥ 95% for seeded inoculum across 2 well-characterized CDC M. tuberculosis strains, using 2 lots each of Myco broth and MYCO GS, tested in triplicate on 3 separate days.
Challenge Testing (Clinical)For 77 valid tests from a 30-organism CDC challenge set (tested at 3 sites), there was an overall agreement of 98.7% with expected results.
Clinical Isolate Testing88% category agreement for 96 tests performed on samples from seed bottle inoculum.

Study Details

  1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: (Provided above)

  2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Analytical Studies:
      • Critical Drug Concentration: 6 susceptible wild strains and 4 resistant strains of M. tuberculosis.
      • Lot Reproducibility: 4 well-characterized M. tuberculosis strains (2 ATCC, 2 CDC).
      • CDC Challenge Panel Testing: 10 strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis obtained from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC).
    • Clinical Studies:
      • Lot Reproducibility: 2 well-characterized M. tuberculosis strains from CDC.
      • Challenge Testing: 30 organisms from a CDC challenge set, resulting in 77 valid test points.
      • Clinical Isolate Testing: A total of 96 tests from seed bottle inoculum.
    • Data Provenance: The strains used were from known sources like ATCC and CDC, indicating well-characterized, reference strains. Clinical isolates were collected from 5 geographically diverse clinical sites, including regional reference centers, university- and community-based laboratories, suggesting real-world clinical samples. The study appears to be prospective in nature for the clinical isolate testing as it refers to performing tests on samples.
  3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts: The document does not explicitly state the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth. It refers to "expected results" and comparisons to the predicate device (BACTEC 460TB PZA Kit) and CDC-provided challenge sets, implying that the ground truth for these reference strains and challenge sets was pre-established and widely accepted in the field.

  4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set: The document does not specify an adjudication method. For the "Challenge Testing" in clinical studies, the "expected results" were used as the ground truth.

  5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance: Not applicable. This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) kit for antimicrobial susceptibility testing, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that involves human readers interpreting images or data. The "user manipulation for reading" is mentioned as "Yes" for the predicate and "No" for the new device in the comparison table, but this refers to the automation of the reading process, not human interpretation improvement.

  6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done: The device itself performs the susceptibility testing. The interpretation of the test "is performed manually by the user, by comparing the time to detection of the Growth Control Bottle to the PZA test bottle." This indicates a manual interpretation step. However, the device determines the growth automatically (via pressure sensor). Therefore, while the final call is human-derived, the core measurement is automated, but it's not a standalone "algorithm only" in the sense of a fully automated diagnostic decision.

  7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • For analytical studies and challenge sets, the ground truth was based on known characteristics of reference strains (ATCC, CDC) and comparisons to the established predicate device (BACTEC 460TB PZA Kit), which implicitly relies on previous expert consensus or established laboratory methods.
    • For clinical isolate testing, the 'expected results' would likely be derived from a reference method or expert consensus interpretation of growth patterns.
  8. The sample size for the training set: Not applicable. This document describes performance studies for an IVD kit, not a machine learning model that requires a "training set."

  9. How the ground truth for the training set was established: Not applicable, as there is no "training set" in the context of device performance studies described here.

SUMMARY OF PERFORMANCE DATA:

Analytical studies:

Determination of critical drug concentration:

The determination of critical PZA concentration was done by determining the minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) for six susceptible wild strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis and four resistant strains. The MIC results of the susceptible strains were ≤200 µg/mL. Thus, the critical concentration was set at 300 µg/mL. Verification of the critical cut off was done with the four resistant strains.

Lot Reproducibility:

Lot reproducibility was performed using 4 well-characterized strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis strains, which were tested in triplicate on three separate days. The strains tested were two ATCC® strains and two strains from CDC. Three different lots of reagents were represented in the testing.. The overall reproducibility was 100% for seeded inoculum.

Two susceptible strains of M. tuberculosis were tested at 25, 50, 100 and 200 µg/mL with two lots of Myco broth and GS. The resistant strain, also tested with 2 lots of Myco broth and GS, was tested at 300 µg/mL. There was no difference in results for the susceptible strains, and. all test bottles of the resistant strain were resistant.

Eight lots of manufactured PZA, seven myco broth and six Myco GS were evaluated for reproducibility with acceptable results for all lots.

CDC Challenge Panel Testing

The performance of the VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT was evaluated using 10 strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis obtained from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC). Observed results were compared to BACTEC and expected results. The overall agreement was 100 %.

{3}------------------------------------------------

Comparison of the VersaTREK® Microbial Detection System to the ESP Culture System II

System II
Recovery of different microorganisms and the time to detection was used to demorstrate no difference in the performance between ESP Culture System II and the VersaTREK Microbial Detection System with additional testing of M. tuberculosis and PZA. There Results and time to detection by either system were not significantly different.

Clinical Studies:

The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT was evaluated at 5 geographical diverse clinical sites, composed of regional reference centers, university- and community-based laboratories.

Lot Reproduducibility:

Lot reproducibility was performed using two well-characterized strains of M. tuberculosis from CDC using two lots each of Myco broth and MYCO GS. Testing was performed in triplicate and on three separate days. The overall reproducibility was ≥ 95% for seeded inoculum.

Challenge Testing:

CDC challenge set of 30 organisms was tested at three sites. Of the possible 90 test points, only 77 were valid. The lower number of tests (7.2% repeat rate) was due to no growth, contamination or instrument issues. Of the 77 organisms tested, 68 were susceptible and 9 were resistant. There was an overall agreement of 98.7% with expected results

Clinical Isolate testing:

A total of 96 tests were performed on samples from seed bottle inoculum . The VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT demonstrated a category agreement of 88%.

Conclusions:

Data presented in this document demonstrates that the VersaTREK® MYCO PZA KIT is substantially equivalent to the BACTEC® 460 TB PZA Kit (K895362).
