  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "quantitative measurement of 17α-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) concentrations in neonatal blood samples... The results are used to screen newborns for classical congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH)." This clearly indicates the device is used to test samples taken from the human body (blood) to provide information about a medical condition (CAH).
  • Device Description: The description details a "competitive solid phase enzyme immunoassay (EIA)" which is a common laboratory technique used to measure substances in biological samples.

Device Description

The Accuwell" 17a-Hydroxyprogesterone EIA Kit is a competitive solid phase enzyme immunoassay (ElA) for the quantitative measurement of 17«-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) concentrations in neonatal blood samples that have been collected onto Whatman S&S 903" specimen collection paper. Standard control, and unknown dried blood spot sample discs are added to specified wells in a 90-well microplate coated with antiserum specific for 17-OHP.

Two procedures are presented.

The first procedure includes an elution step where blood is eluted from the dried blood spot sample. A 1/8 inch disc from standards, controls, and unknown dried blood spot samples are added to specified wells in an uncoated microplate. Saline is added to all wells and the plate is allowed to incubate until the blood has eluted from the paper. Immediately following a transfer of a portion of this eluate into the antibodycoated microplate a horseradish peroxidase enzyme conjugated to 17-OHP (17-OHP: HRP) is added to the wells. A competition begins between the endogenous 17-OHP from the unknown samples, standards and controls and the 17-OHP: HRP for the limited number of antibody binding sites in the wells. An inverse relationship develops between the concentration of endogenous 17-0HP and the amount of 17-OHP: HRP, which will bind to the coated microplate. After a period of incubation the excess 17-OHP: HRP is removed by washing. A color developer, containing a colorless 3, 3', 5, 5'tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and peroxide (H2O2), is added to all wells. The peroxidase react and subsequently the TMB is converted from color. The color development is terminated through the addition of a stopping reagent and the absorbance is measured at 650 nm using a microplate absorbance reader. A standard curve is constructed using the known concentration of each standard plotted against the corresponding absorbance reading of that standard. The concentrations of unknown controls and samples are determined by comparison to this standard curve.

An alternate procedure is described where a 1/8 inch disc from each blood spot is placed directly into designated wells of the coated microplate. The enzyme conjugated 17-OHP is added and the competition proceeds concurrent with the elution step. Upon completion period, the excess 17-OHP:HRP and the discs are removed by decanting, or aspirating the discs from each well. The plate is then washed and processed using the same procedure as described above.

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

Precision:
Precision studies were conducted in accordance with NCCLS EP5-A2, "Evaluation of Precision Performance of Quantitative Measurement Methods"; Approved Guideline-Second Edition.
Testing included one run per day, with two sample aliquots per run, performed on 20 different days using each of three different assay procedures. The three procedures were designated as: 1) "ON Eluate", 2) "3 Hr Eluate" and 3) "ON Direct DBS", respectively. The resulting data were used to estimate repeatability, between-day and within-device precision as described by the standard, for each procedure.
All precision testing was performed by Neo-Genesis' Portland, OR manufacturing facility. Sources of variability included the use of different: operators, days and reagent lot numbers.

Analytical Sensitivity:
The analytical sensitivity was determined for each procedure including Overnight Eluate, 3 hour Eluate, and the Overnight Direct. Sensitivity was defined by the calculated concentration that corresponds to the mean of the absorbance of the zero standard (N=26) minus two times the standard deviation of those same absorbance measurements.
The zero standard was tested multiple time (N=26) in one assay. Testing was performed in each of the two procedures, eluate and direct, and spanning the range of allowable elution times, three hours and overnight for the eluate procedure.

Summary and Explanation of the Assay

Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia (CAH) is a family of genetic disorders caused by reduced enzyme activities, which are required in the biosynthesis pathway leading to the production of cortisol in the adrenal cortex. The most common of these disorders is the 21-hydroxylase deficiency and accounts for more than 90% of CAH cases. 1, 2, 3

The incidence of classical 21-hydroxylase deficiencies widely by population and efhnic group. In Japan the incidence is thought to be about 1 in 21,000, while in Europe and North America incidence ranges between 1 in 10,000 to 1 in 16,000. The Yupik Eskimos in Alaska have an extremely high incidence of around 1 in 300 4,5

Clinical symptoms of the 21-hydroxylase deficiency occur primarily due to the over production of precursors to the blocked enzymatic step. These precursors are shunted into the androgen biosynthesis pathway, which produces virilization in the female fetus, rapid postnatal growth with accelerated skeletal maturation, precocious puberty and short stature in both males and females. About 75% of the patients with classical CAH also have a defect in their ability to synthesize aldosterone, which can lead to a salt wasting crisis.

In classical 21-hydroxylase deficiencies the 17 α-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) levels are markedly increased. However, the 17-OHP levels in normal infants are elevated in the first two to three days after birth. These high concentrations in normal infants decline rapidly to adult levels within the first seven to ten days.' Low birth-weight, premature and sick babies may continue to have higher than normal 17-OHP levels for an extended time frame. For this reason it has been recommended that a multi-tiered approach

1

be employed to setting the normal cut-off. Laboratories must be notified of either dexamethasone therapy or transfusion status. Due to the population differences it is also strongly recommended that each laboratory establish their own normal range and cutoff levels. Periodic review and possible adjustment if necessary to reduce the false positive rate is also recommended. Non-classical forms of CAH are not
reliably detected by newborn screening." 9.10.11

The Working Group on Neonatal Screening of the European Society of Pediatric Endocrinology (ESPE) has recommended that after a positive screening test for CAH, it is imperative that the diagnosis be validated with confirmatory testing. Confirmation methods vary depending on availability but include urine steroid analysis, ACTH stimulation and CY21 gene analysis.12, 13, 1

Principle of the Assay

The Accuwell" 17a-Hydroxyprogesterone EIA Kit is a competitive solid phase enzyme immunoassay (ElA) for the quantitative measurement of 17«-Hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP) concentrations in neonatal blood samples that have been collected onto Whatman S&S 903" specimen collection paper. Standard control, and unknown dried blood spot sample discs are added to specified wells in a 90-well microplate coated with antiserum specific for 17-OHP.

Two procedures are presented.

The first procedure includes an elution step where blood is eluted from the dried blood spot sample. A 1/8 inch disc from standards, controls, and unknown dried blood spot samples are added to specified wells in an uncoated microplate. Saline is added to all wells and the plate is allowed to incubate until the blood has eluted from the paper. Immediately following a transfer of a portion of this eluate into the antibodycoated microplate a horseradish peroxidase enzyme conjugated to 17-OHP (17-OHP: HRP) is added to the wells. A competition begins between the endogenous 17-OHP from the unknown samples, standards and controls and the 17-OHP: HRP for the limited number of antibody binding sites in the wells. An inverse relationship develops between the concentration of endogenous 17-0HP and the amount of 17-OHP: HRP, which will bind to the coated microplate. After a period of incubation the excess 17-OHP: HRP is removed by washing. A color developer, containing a colorless 3, 3', 5, 5'tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) and peroxide (H2O2), is added to all wells. The peroxidase react and subsequently the TMB is converted from color. The color development is terminated through the addition of a stopping reagent and the absorbance is measured at 650 nm using a microplate absorbance reader. A standard curve is constructed using the known concentration of each standard plotted against the corresponding absorbance reading of that standard. The concentrations of unknown controls and samples are determined by comparison to this standard curve.

An alternate procedure is described where a 1/8 inch disc from each blood spot is placed directly into designated wells of the coated microplate. The enzyme conjugated 17-OHP is added and the competition proceeds concurrent with the elution step. Upon completion period, the excess 17-OHP:HRP and the discs are removed by decanting, or aspirating the discs from each well. The plate is then washed and processed using the same procedure as described above.

Precision

Precision studies were conducted in accordance with NCCLS EP5-A2, "Evaluation of Precision Performance of Quantitative Measurement Methods"; Approved Guideline-Second Edition.

Testing included one run per day, with two sample aliquots per run, performed on 20 different days using each of three different assay procedures. The three procedures were designated as: 1) "ON Eluate", 2) "3 Hr Eluate" and 3) "ON Direct DBS", respectively. The resulting data were used to estimate repeatability, between-day and within-device precision as described by the standard, for each procedure.

All precision testing was performed by Neo-Genesis' Portland, OR manufacturing facility. Sources of variability included the use of different: operators, days and reagent lot numbers.

Analytical Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity was determined for each procedure including Overnight Eluate, 3 hour Eluate, and the Overnight Direct. Sensitivity was defined by the calculated concentration that corresponds to the mean of the absorbance of the zero standard (N=26) minus two times the standard deviation of those same absorbance measurements.

The zero standard was tested multiple time (N=26) in one assay. Testing was performed in each of the two procedures, eluate and direct, and spanning the range of allowable elution times, three hours and overnight for the eluate procedure.

Extrapolation beyond the upper and lower limits of the standard curve or beyond the limits of detection is not an acceptable laboratory practice. Therefore any sample result falling below these calculated concentrations should be reported as less than the limit of detection.

This data is provided for example only and should be confirmed by each laboratory and appropriate concentrations defined.

Linearity and Recovery

The Accuwell 17-OHP Kit linear range and the measuring (reportable) range is approximately 2.0 ng/ml to 250 ng/ml based on study data described below, the sensitivity study described elsewhere and limited by the value assigned to the highest standard of the calibration curve.

Assay results obtained outside the measuring (reportable) range should be reported as either "less than" or "greater than" the established low or high limit, respectively, as applicable to the individual result.

Dried blood spots representing a range of sample concentrations were prepared for the study. The sample analyte levels in ng/ml were: 10, 24.5, 39, 68, 97, 126, 155, 184, 213, 242, 271 and 300 (n = 12 concentrations).

Four aliquots of each sample of the range of samples prepared, were tested in each of two runs using each of three different assay procedures. The three procedures were designated as:1) "ON Eluate", 2) "3 Hr Eluate" and 3) "ON Direct DBS", respectively. The mean of the total number of values obtained for each sample (n=8) within each procedure, was compared to the samples expected value. Results of the comparisons are described below.
