The Diagnostic Hybrids, Inc. D3 Ultra DFA (direct fluorescent antibody) RESPIRATORY VIRUS SCREENING & ID KIT is intended for the qualitative detection and identification of the Influenza A, Influenza B, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV), Adenovirus, Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2 and Parainfluenza 3 virus in respiratory specimens, by either direct detection or cell culture method, by immunofluorescence using fluoresceinated monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). It is recommended that specimens found to be negative after examination of the direct specimen result be confirmed by cell culture. Negative results do not preclude respiratory virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions.
The Diagnostic Hybrids, Inc. D3 Ultra DFA RESPIRATORY VIRUS SCREENING & ID KIT includes a DFA Screening Reagent that contains a blend of murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) directed against seven respiratory viruses (Influenza A. Influenza B. Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Adenovirus, Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, and Parainfluenza 3) plus seven separate DFA Reagents, each consisting of MAb blends directed against a single respiratory virus. The kit can be used for direct specimen or cell culture screening and final virus identification.

1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Comparison Studies (Primary Clinical Evaluation):
- Total specimens: 849 original specimens.
- Direct Specimen (DS) Testing:
- Fresh prospectively collected: 326 specimens.
- Frozen prospectively collected: 474 specimens.
- Cell Culture (CC) Method Testing: 520 specimens (subset of the 849). Of these, 490 were frozen prospectively collected.
- Archived Parainfluenza Specimens (Study 3a-DS/CC):
- DS: 26 specimens
- CC: 29 specimens
- Archived Clinical Isolates (Study 3b-CC): 81 clinical isolates.
- Data Provenance:
- Main study (849 specimens): All but 30 were prospectively collected during the 2005-2006 season. These 30 were archived as Parainfluenza-positive.
- Archived Parainfluenza Specimens (Study 3a): Frozen original specimens previously determined to contain Parainfluenza (types 1, 2, or 3) during the 2006 "respiratory season," obtained from an additional laboratory.
- Archived Clinical Isolates (Study 3b): Banked clinical isolates known to contain respiratory viruses from the 2005/2006 respiratory season.
- Country of Origin: Not explicitly stated, but the submission is to the US FDA by "Diagnostic Hybrids, Inc. Athens, OHIO 45701", implying US-based studies.
2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- The document implies that the "Predicate device" results acted as the reference or ground truth for the comparison studies. Therefore, the "experts" are the lab personnel who interpreted the predicate device results.
- The number and specific qualifications of these experts are not explicitly stated in the provided text. The evaluation was conducted at three laboratory sites.
3. Adjudication method for the test set:
- The document does not describe a specific adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). It states that the "Subject" results were compared to "Predicate Results." This implies the predicate results were taken as the standard. In the case of Study 3a (Archived Parainfluenza), it mentions that "Original results reported by the laboratory were unknown to the study investigator," suggesting an independent comparison to pre-existing results rather than a real-time adjudication process.
4. 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:
- No, this section is not applicable. The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test kit for direct detection or cell culture by immunofluorescence using monoclonal antibodies. It is not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. Therefore, an MRMC study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance was not performed.
5. If a standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:
- Yes, in a sense. The described performance is the "Subject device" (the test kit itself) compared against a "Predicate device" (another test kit). This represents the performance of the assay/reagent system in a laboratory setting, which is analogous to a "standalone" performance for such an IVD device, as it doesn't involve an AI algorithm or human interpretation outside of standard microscopy and reading of fluorescent signals.
6. The type of ground truth used:
- The primary ground truth used for the comparison studies was the results obtained from a legally marketed predicate device (Diagnostic Hybrids, Inc. DFA Respiratory Virus Screening & ID Kit, K022713).
- For the "Archived Parainfluenza Specimens" (Study 3a) and "Archived Clinical Isolates" (Study 3b), the ground truth was also based on previously determined results (implicitly from a predicate or similar method) for known positive specimens/isolates.
7. The sample size for the training set:
- For the comparative effectiveness studies (clinical evaluations), there is no explicit mention of a separate "training set" for the device itself in the context of an algorithm or machine learning. The studies described are validation studies comparing the performance of the new device to a predicate. The device is a reagent-based test kit, not an algorithm that requires a training set in the typical AI sense.
- However, during the development of the monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and the kit, internal analytical studies would have been performed. The closest equivalent to "training" for such a device would be the extensive analytical testing described, such as detection limits and analytical specificity testing across various viral strains, host cell types, and bacterial cultures.
8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- As mentioned above, the concept of a "training set" in the context of an algorithm is not directly applicable here.
- For the analytical studies (detection limit, analytical specificity), the "ground truth" was established by:
- Known viral stocks: Inoculating cell culture plates with specific viruses at known concentrations (e.g., "50 viral particles," "1 viral particle per every 2 wells," "250 virus/mL").
- Known microorganisms and cell types: Testing against "64 virus strains (cultured and processed for staining)," "18 host culture cell types," and "18 bacterial cultures," where their identity was pre-established.

L. Test Principle:
The test kit uses viral antigen-specific murine monoclonal antibodies that are directly labeled with fluorescein for rapid detection and identification of respiratory viruses. The cells to be tested, either derived from a clinical specimen or cell culture, are fixed in acetone. The DFA Screening Reagent is added to the cells to determine the presence of viral antigens. After incubating at 35℃ to 37℃, the stained cells are rinsed with the diluted Wash Solution, a drop of the supplied Mounting Fluid is added and a coverslip is placed on the prepared cells. The cells are examined using a fluorescence microscope. Virus infected cells will be stained with viral specific apple-green fluorescence when stained with the DFA
{4}------------------------------------------------
Screening Reagent while uninfected cells will contain no fluorescence but will be stained red by the Evan's Blue counter-stain. If on examination of a direct stained specimen, no fluorescent-stained cells are found and all the cells stain red from the Evan's Blue, it is recommended that the specimen be cultured and stained using the DFA Screening Reagent. If fluorescent cells are seen, the particular virus is identified using the separate DFA Reagents on new, separate cell preparations. Cell preparations are fixed in acetone. The individual virus DFA Reagents are added to the cell preparations. After incubating at 35° to 37°C, the stained cells are rinsed with the diluted Wash Solution, a drop of the supplied Mounting Fluid is added and a coverslip is placed on the stained cells. The cells are examined using a fluorescence microscope for the presence of viral specific apple-green fluorescence, by which the unknown respiratory virus is identified.
Interpretation of results:
It is recommended that controls be examined first to ensure proper test performance before examination of the specimens. A positive reaction is one in which bright apple-green fluorescence is observed in the infected cells. Uninfected cells will stain dull red due to the Evan's Blue counter-stain included in the DFA Reagent.
Fluorescent staining pattern of respiratory virus infected cells:
The "typical" apple-green fluorescence staining pattern for each virus is as follows: Influenza A and B: The fluorescence is cytoplasmic, nuclear or both. Cytoplasmic staining is often punctate with large inclusions while nuclear staining is uniformly bright. Respiratory Syncytial Virus: The fluorescence is cytoplasmic and punctate with small inclusions in the syncytia.
Adenovirus: The fluorescence is cytoplasmic and punctate or bright nuclear or both. Parainfluenza 1, 2, 3: The fluorescence is cytoplasmic and punctate with irregular inclusions. Types 2 and 3 cause the formation of syncytia.
Co-infection with more than one infecting virus present in the specimen has been reported in a number of studies. The presence of multiple viruses is indicated when more than one well of the 8-well slide has fluorescent cells. The identification of the viruses is based on the individual virus DFA Reagents showing fluorescence. In such a case, it should be reported as " ... and ... detected by direct specimen testing." or " ... and ... isolated by cell culture."
Results From Direct Specimen Testing: The quality of the specimen with respect to the number of epithelial cells in the sample can be assessed by examining the different fields at a magnification of 200X. A satisfactory specimen should have at least 2 columnar epithelial cells per field. A negative result is indicated by the absence of fluorescence in a minimal sampling of 20 columnar epithelial cells. An inadequate sample is indicated by fewer than 20 columnar epithelial cells present in the sample, in which case the test is considered invalid. A new specimen should be obtained and tested or cell culture of the remaining specimen should be initiated.
A satisfactory specimen with no fluorescent cells found should be reported as "Presumptively negative, no Influenza A, Influenza B, Adenovirus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, or Parainfluenza 3 detected by direct specimen testing". However, such negative results should be confirmed using cell culture. In the case culture yields a positive result, it should be reported as " ... isolated by cell culture", where '…' is the appropriate virus.

If fluorescent cells are found, continue with the Testing Procedure, staining with the individual virus DFA Reagents. The individual virus DFA Reagent that yields fluorescent cells represents the identification of the respiratory virus. In such a case, it should be reported as " ... detected by direct specimen testing', where ' ... ' is the appropriate virus, e.g. Influenza A, Influenza B, Adenovirus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, or Parainfluenza 3.
Results from Culture Isolation / Confirmation: The entire cell spot or monolayer of cells must be examined for virus-infected, fluorescent cells. If no fluorescent cells are found, the results of testing of the specimen should be reported as, "No Influenza A, Influenza B, Adenovirus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus, Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, or Parainfluenza 3 isolated by cell culture."

The Predicate and Subject MAbs were compared by inoculating 96-well cell culture plates with the appropriate virus stock diluted to give ~ 50 viral particles for the entire plate or 1 viral particle per every 2 wells (i.e. 1 TCID50). The plates were incubated at 37° C for 24 hours and then stained with either the Subject Kit or the Predicate Kit. All plates were stained using the procedure in the product insert. This assay was performed 3 times with each virus and the results indicate no statistical difference from the Predicate kit by a paired t-test.
Each targeted respiratory virus was diluted to a value of 250 virus/mL and serial 2fold dilutions were then done down to a final value of 0.49 virus/mL. Each dilution of virus was inoculated into 6 shell vials of R-Mix, centrifuged at 700xg for 60 minutes and incubated at 35-37℃ for 48 hours. The Subject Kit or the Predicate Kit was used to stain 3 shell vials of each viral dilution according to the product insert. The sensitivity of both fluorescent antibody stains is equivalent, with ~ 0.5 - 1.0 PFU as the minimum viral dilution detected.
In order to determine if mixing the 15 various MAbs in the Screening Reagent affected their sensitivity, the analytical sensitivity of the subject screen reagent was compared to that of the subject individual reagents by inoculating 96-well cell culture plates with the appropriate virus stock diluted to give ~ 50 viral particles for
{6}------------------------------------------------
the entire plate or 1 viral particle per every 2 wells. The plates were incubated at 37°C for 24 hours and then stained with cither the subject screening reagent or the subject individual reagents. All plates were stained using the procedure in the product insert. This assay was performed 3 times with each virus and the results indicate that the sensitivity of the screening reagent in the subject kit was not statistically different from that of the subject individual reagents using the paired test.
Analytical specificity:
The DFA Reagents were tested for cross-reactivity against a wide variety of cells and microorganisms. No cross-reactivity was observed for 64 virus strains (cultured and processed for staining) or for 18 host culture cell types. Eighteen (18) bacterial cultures were stained and examined for cross-reactivity, including Staphylococcus aureus, a protein-A-producing bacterium. Staining of S. aureus appeared as small points of fluorescence while all other bacterial cultures were negative. [Protein A will nonspecifically bind to the Fc portions of conjugated antibodies. Such binding can be distinguished from viral antigen binding on the basis of morphology, i.e., S. aureus-bound fluorescence appears as small (~1 micron diameter), bright dots. Stringent conditions for cross-reactivity testing were achieved by using high concentration DFAs and high titers of microorganisms. The DFAs (i.e. directly fluoresceinated monoclonal antibodies) were prepared at 1.5X the concentration that is provided in the kit. Each of the tested viruses was prepared as infected cell monolayers (250 infected cells inoculated into a shell vial culture and incubated for 24 to 48 hours, to yield a 3+ to 4+ infection), and processed and stained with the 1.5X DFAs according to the procedure detailed in the product insert. Bacterial strains were cultured, processed as suspensions, then spotted on microscope slides (vielding > 150 bacteria per 400X microscope field), then stained with the 1.5X DFAs according to the procedure in the product insert. Cell cultures were stained as confluent monolayers.

a. Method comparison with predicate device:
The study included 849 original specimens evaluated by this product ("Subject" test) and a currently marketed DFA Screening & Identification Kit ("Predicate" test). All 849 specimens were studied by Direct Specimen (DS) testing with 22 of these specimens having insufficient cell numbers to be evaluated, and one other which could not be evaluated because it exhibited non-specific staining from the Normal Mouse Gamma Globulin DFA Reagent; 520 of the specimens also were studied by Cell Culture (CC) method with one specimen not evaluated because it produced a toxic cell culture monolayer. All but 30 of the specimens were prospectively collected during the 2005-2006 season; those 30 specimens had been archived as Parainfluenza-positive. In addition, a set of 81 clinical isolates were tested by CC methods only. The evaluations were conducted at three laboratory sites. Summary of results are shown in tables below:

Non-prospective archival specimens: Due to relative low prevalence of Parainfluenza infections in populations of respiratory specimens, few prospectively collected specimens were reactive with the Parainfluenza DFA Reagents. Frozen original specimens previously determined to contain Parainfluenza (types 1, 2, or 3) during the 2006 "respiratory season" were obtained from an additional laboratory, and were tested in an internal reference laboratory using the Subject and Predicate Tests by Wirect Specimen method (Study 3a-DS; see table below). The same specimens were tested by Cell Culture method (Study 3a-CC, see table below). Original results reported by the laboratory were unknown to the study investigator.

November to April in the northern hemisphere, and Adenovirus infections occurring more often during late winter to early summer. RSV is usually a seasonal (winter and early spring) infection as well, with epidemics lasting up to 5 months, while outbreaks caused by parainfluenza viruses may occur throughout a year.
The clinical studies were comprised of respiratory specimens collected during the winter to carly spring months of 2005/2006. Prevalence of the respiratory viruses within the population of specimens that were prospectively collected and tested fresh is noted in the table below:
