Intended Use
The Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA is an immunoenzymatic sandwich microplate assay for the detection of Aspergillus galactomannan antigen in adult and pediatric serum samples. The Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA is a test which, when used in conjunction with other diagnostic procedures such as microbiological culture, histological examination of biopsy samples and radiographic evidence, can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of Invasive Aspergillosis.
Device Description
The Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA is a one-stage immunoenzymatic sandwich microplate assay which detects galactomannan in human serum. The assay uses rat EBA-2 monoclonal antibodies, which are directed against Aspergillus galactomannan, and have been characterized in previous studies 19,16. The monoclonal antibodies are used to coat the wells of the microplate and bind the antigen, and to detect the antigen bound to the sensitized microplate (conjugate reagent: peroxidase-linked monoclonal antibodies). Serum samples are heat-treated in the presence of EDTA in order to dissociate immune complexes and to precipitate serum proteins that could possibly interfere with the test . The treated serum samples and conjugate are added to the wells coated with monoclonal antibodies, and incubated. A monoclonal antibody - galactomannan - monoclonal antibody / peroxidase complex is formed in the presence of galactomannan antigen. The strips are washed to remove any unbound material. Next, the substrate solution is added, which will react with the complexes bound to the well to form a blue color reaction. The enzyme reaction is stopped by the addition of acid, which changes the blue color to yellow. The absorbance (optical density) of specimens and controls is determined with a spectrophotometer set at 450 and 620/630 nm wavelength.
More Information

The device description details a standard immunoenzymatic assay based on antibody-antigen binding and colorimetric detection, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms for data analysis or interpretation.

No
Explanation: This device is an in-vitro diagnostic test used to detect an antigen for diagnosis, not to treat a condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device "can be used as an aid in the diagnosis of Invasive Aspergillosis," which clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines a laboratory assay involving physical reagents, microplates, and a spectrophotometer, indicating it is a hardware-based diagnostic test, not software only.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "detection of Aspergillus galactomannan antigen in adult and pediatric serum samples" and is used "as an aid in the diagnosis of Invasive Aspergillosis." This clearly indicates it's a test performed on a biological sample (serum) to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory assay (immunoenzymatic sandwich microplate assay) performed on human serum samples. This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes detailed performance studies (sensitivity, specificity, reproducibility, cross-reactivity) conducted on human serum samples, which are standard for evaluating the performance of IVD devices.
  • Key Metrics: The inclusion of metrics like sensitivity, specificity, PPV, and NPV are all relevant to the performance evaluation of diagnostic tests.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K023857; Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA) further confirms its classification as an IVD, as predicate devices are used for comparison in the regulatory submission process for new IVDs.

All these elements align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA is a one-stage immunoenzymatic sandwich microplate assay which detects galactomannan in human serum. The assay uses rat EBA-2 monoclonal antibodies, which are directed against Aspergillus galactomannan, and have been characterized in previous studies 19,16. The monoclonal antibodies are used to coat the wells of the microplate and bind the antigen, and to detect the antigen bound to the sensitized microplate (conjugate reagent: peroxidase-linked monoclonal antibodies).

Serum samples are heat-treated in the presence of EDTA in order to dissociate immune complexes and to precipitate serum proteins that could possibly interfere with the test . The treated serum samples and conjugate are added to the wells coated with monoclonal antibodies, and incubated. A monoclonal antibody - galactomannan - monoclonal antibody / peroxidase complex is formed in the presence of galactomannan antigen. The strips are washed to remove any unbound material. Next, the substrate solution is added, which will react with the complexes bound to the well to form a blue color reaction. The enzyme reaction is stopped by the addition of acid, which changes the blue color to yellow. The absorbance (optical density) of specimens and controls is determined with a spectrophotometer set at 450 and 620/630 nm wavelength.

II. REPRODUCIBILITY STUDIES

Note: Reproducibility Studies were previously presented in prior 510(k) submission (K023857) for this assay, no new reproducibility studies have been performed.

Inter-assay and Intra-assay variability for the Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA were determined in a study using a panel of 6 pooled patient serum samples (one negative, one low positive, two positive, and two high positive) obtained at 3 clinical trial sites in North America. Each of the 6 panel members was tested in triplicate (x3) on 3 different days, on one lot, at two sites (total number of replicates at each site = 9).

IV. PERFORMANCE EVALUATION STUDIES

Additional clinical testing to evaluate the specificity and sensitivity of the Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA was conducted at 3 clinical sites located in the United States for the pediatric (Age ≤ 21 years ) population. This testing was performed in addition to the testing done for prior submission (K023857) for adult patients. The study was conducted using samples from the following patient populations*:

  • patients without signs of Invasive Aspergillosis ●
  • patients with probable Invasive Aspergillosis ●
  • patients with proven Invasive Aspergillosis .
  • The Invasive Fungal Infection Cooperative Group (IFICG) of the European Organization for Research (EORTC) and the Mycosis Study Group (MSG of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) have defined criteria for diagnosis of Invasive Aspergillosis (IA) in patients with hematologic malignancy or hematopoetic stem cell transplant.

Proven Invasive Aspergillosis is defined by positive microbiological culture obtained by sterile procedure from the site affected, and histopathological demonstration of the appropriate morphological forms in a host with symptoms attributed to the fungal infection.

Probable Invasive Aspergillosis is defined as at least one microbiological criterion, and one major or two minor clinical criteria from a site consistent with infection, in a host

with symptoms attributed to the fungal infection.

Possible Invasive Aspergillosis is defined as at least one microbiological criterion, or one major or two minor clinical criteria from a site consistent with infection, in a host with symptoms attributed to the fungal infection

SENSITIVITY

A. PEDIATRICS

Results from this study have been analyzed in terms of patient sensitivity. Sensitivity testing was conducted using the Platelia™ Aspergillus EIA at three sites on a combined total of 17 immunocompromised pediatric patients diagnosed with Proven or Probable Invasive Aspergillosis.
