The APTIMA Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis is a target amplification nucleix acid probe test that utilizes target capture for the in vitro qualitative detection of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) in clinician-collected endocervical, vaginal and male urethral swab specimens, patient-collected vaginal swab specimens1, and female and male urine specimens. The assay may be used to test specimens from symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals to aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial urogenital disease using the TIGRIS DTS Automated Analyzer or semi-automated instrumentation as specified.
1 Patient-collected vaginal swab specimens are an option for screening women when a pelvic exam is not otherwise indicated. The vaginal swab specimen collection kit is not for home use.
Not Found
The provided text is a 510(k) premarket notification letter from the FDA to Gen-Probe Incorporated regarding their TIGRIS® DTS® Automated Analyzer APTIMA® Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis. While it outlines the device's indications for use and classification, it does not contain the detailed acceptance criteria or the study data that proves the device meets those criteria.
Therefore, I cannot fulfill most of your request directly from this document. The information typically found in a 510(k) summary (which is a separate document often submitted alongside the initial notification) would contain such details.
However, based on the information provided in this letter, I can extract the following:
- Device Name: TIGRIS® DTS® Automated Analyzer APTIMA® Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis
- Indications for Use: The APTIMA Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis is a target amplification nucleic acid probe test that utilizes target capture for the in vitro qualitative detection of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) from Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) in clinician-collected endocervical, vaginal and male urethral swab specimens, patient-collected vaginal swab specimens¹, and female and male urine specimens. The assay may be used to test specimens from symptomatic and asymptomatic individuals to aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial urogenital disease using the TIGRIS DTS Automated Analyzer or semi-automated instrumentation as specified.
- ¹Patient-collected vaginal swab specimens are an option for screening women when a pelvic exam is not otherwise indicated. The vaginal swab specimen collection kit is not for home use.
To answer the rest of your questions, I would need access to the full 510(k) submission, specifically the sections detailing the performance data and clinical studies.

Trade/Device Name: TIGRIS® DTS® Automated Analyzer APTIMA® Assay for Chlamydia trachomatis Regulation Number: 21 CFR 866.3120 Regulation Name: Chlamydia Serological Reagents Regulatory Class: Class I Product Code: MKZ Dated: October 12, 2006 Received: October 13, 2006
Dear Mr. Shea:
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 indice includio is for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed prodicate 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 areemig southerner your device 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).
{1}------------------------------------------------
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 Iv(L) marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, verse to volu device to proceed to the market.
If you desire specific information about the application of labeling requirements to your device, or questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (240)276-0450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll frem mor (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.

§ 866.3120 Chlamydia serological reagents.
(a)
Identification. Chlamydia serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to chlamydia in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of chlamydia antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye used to identify chlamydia directly from clinical specimens or cultured isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by bacteria belonging to the genusChlamydia and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Chlamydia are the causative agents of psittacosis (a form of pneumonia), lymphogranuloma venereum (a venereal disease), and trachoma (a chronic disease of the eye and eyelid).(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls).
