Intended Use
Vision BioSystems Estrogen Receptor Clone 6F11 (ER 6F11) is intended for in vitro diagnostic use for the qualitative detection of estrogen receptor in routinely processed tissues. ER 6F11 is indicated as an aid in the management, prognosis and prediction of therapy outcome of breast cancer within the context of the patient's clinical history and other diagnostic tests evaluated by a qualified pathologist. Vision BioSystems Estrogen Receptor Clone 6F11 (ER 6F11) Mouse Monoclonal antibody is intended for laboratory use to qualitatively identify by light microscopy, estrogen receptor (ER) antigen in sections of formalin fixed, paraffin embedded tissue. Estrogen Receptor Clone 6F11 specifically binds to the ER antigen located in the nucleus of ER positive normal and neoplastic cells. ER 6F11 is indicated as an aid in the management, prognosis and prediction of therapy outcome of breast cancer. The clinical interpretation of any staining or its absence should be complemented by morphological studies using proper controls and should be evaluated within the context of the patient's clinical history and other diagnostic tests by a qualified pathologist.
Device Description
ER 6F11 is a monoclonal mouse antibody that detects a human estrogen receptor epitope located in the nucleus of ER positive cells.

No
The device description and intended use clearly describe a monoclonal antibody used for immunohistochemistry, a traditional laboratory technique. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis of the results. The interpretation is explicitly stated to be performed by a qualified pathologist using light microscopy.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) tool used to help predict therapy outcome for breast cancer by detecting estrogen receptors, not to directly treat a condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Vision BioSystems Estrogen Receptor Clone 6F11 (ER 6F11) is intended for in vitro diagnostic use." It also specifies that "ER 6F11 is indicated as an aid in the management, prognosis and prediction of therapy outcome of breast cancer," which are all diagnostic applications.

No

The device description clearly states that the device is a "monoclonal mouse antibody," which is a biological reagent, not software. The intended use describes its use in conjunction with light microscopy, further indicating it is a physical component used in a laboratory setting.

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 device is "intended for in vitro diagnostic use".
  • Purpose: The device is used to qualitatively detect estrogen receptor in tissue samples, which is a diagnostic test performed outside of the living body (in vitro).
  • Clinical Application: The device is indicated as an aid in the management, prognosis, and prediction of therapy outcome for breast cancer, which is a clear diagnostic application.
  • Laboratory Use: The device is intended for "laboratory use" and to be evaluated by a "qualified pathologist", which are typical characteristics of IVDs.

§ 864.1860 Immunohistochemistry reagents and kits.

(a)
Identification. Immunohistochemistry test systems (IHC's) are in vitro diagnostic devices consisting of polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies labeled with directions for use and performance claims, which may be packaged with ancillary reagents in kits. Their intended use is to identify, by immunological techniques, antigens in tissues or cytologic specimens. Similar devices intended for use with flow cytometry devices are not considered IHC's.(b)
Classification of immunohistochemistry devices. (1) Class I (general controls). Except as described in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this section, these devices are exempt from the premarket notification requirements in part 807, subpart E of this chapter. This exemption applies to IHC's that provide the pathologist with adjunctive diagnostic information that may be incorporated into the pathologist's report, but that is not ordinarily reported to the clinician as an independent finding. These IHC's are used after the primary diagnosis of tumor (neoplasm) has been made by conventional histopathology using nonimmunologic histochemical stains, such as hematoxylin and eosin. Examples of class I IHC's are differentiation markers that are used as adjunctive tests to subclassify tumors, such as keratin.(2) Class II (special control, guidance document: “FDA Guidance for Submission of Immunohistochemistry Applications to the FDA,” Center for Devices and Radiologic Health, 1998). These IHC's are intended for the detection and/or measurement of certain target analytes in order to provide prognostic or predictive data that are not directly confirmed by routine histopathologic internal and external control specimens. These IHC's provide the pathologist with information that is ordinarily reported as independent diagnostic information to the ordering clinician, and the claims associated with these data are widely accepted and supported by valid scientific evidence. Examples of class II IHC's are those intended for semiquantitative measurement of an analyte, such as hormone receptors in breast cancer.
(3) Class III (premarket approval). IHC's intended for any use not described in paragraphs (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section.
(c)
Date of PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act is required for any device described in paragraph (b)(3) of this section before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 864.3.

Dear Mr. Lagerquist:

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.

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 Parts 801 and 809); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.
