Intended Use
For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Reagent is used to quantitatively measure total homocysteine (HCY) concentration in human serum and plasma. Serum and plasma homocysteine levels can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria. For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 27 is used to calibrate VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems for the quantitative measurement of homocysteine (HCY). For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Performance Verifiers are assayed controls used to monitor performance of VITROS HCY Reagents on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems.
Device Description
The VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Reagent is used in conjunction with the VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 27 and VITROS Chemistry Products FS Diluent Pack 2 (BSA/Saline) on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems to quantitatively measure total homocysteine (HCY) concentration in human serum and plasma. The quantitative measurement of homocysteine (HCY) is performed using the VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Reagent in conjunction with the VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 27 and on the VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems. The VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Reagent consists of two dual chambered reagent packs containing three ready-to- use liquid reagents. Disulfide linked homocysteine (oxidized forms) in the sample is reduced by Tris (2-Carboxyethyl) phosphine hydrochloride (TCEP) to form reduced homocysteine. Reduced homocysteine reacts with serine in the presence of cystathionine ß-synthase (CBS) to form L-cystathionine. L-cystathionine is broken down by cystathionine ß-lyase (CBL) to produce homocysteine, pyruvate and ammonia. Pyruvate is reduced to lactate by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) using NADH as coenzyme. The concentration of HCY is directly proportional to the amount of NADH converted to NAD and is measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm. Once a calibration has been performed, the HCY concentration in each unknown sample can be determined using the stored calibration curve and the measured absorbance obtained in the assay of the sample. The VITROS Chemistry Products Calibrator Kit 27 are prepared from an aqueous solution containing amino acids and inorganic acid. These standards are used to calibrate VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems for the quantitative measurement of homocysteine (HCY). The VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Performance Verifiers I, II and III are prepared from processed human serum to which amino acid and preservative have been added. These are assayed controls used to monitor performance of VITROS HCY Reagents on VITROS 5.1 FS Chemistry Systems. The VITROS Chemistry Products FS Diluent Pack 2 (Saline/BSA) is a common reagent that is used by multiple assays on the VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System. This is a dual chambered package containing two ready-to-use liquid diluents. Diluent 1 is prepared from processed water to which inorganic salt has been added. Diluent 2 is prepared from processed water to which bovine serum albumin, inorganic salts and preservatives have been added. The VITROS 5.1 FS Chemistry System is a clinical chemistry instrument that provides automated use of the VITROS Chemistry Products MicroTip® and MicroSlides® range of products.
More Information

No
The device description details a standard spectrophotometric chemical assay and calibration process. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, performance studies, or any other section.

No.
The device is used to measure homocysteine levels for diagnostic purposes, not to treat or cure a disease.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "For in vitro diagnostic use only. VITROS Chemistry Products HCY Reagent is used to quantitatively measure total homocysteine (HCY) concentration in human serum and plasma. Serum and plasma homocysteine levels can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria." This directly indicates its role in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components including reagent packs, calibrator kits, performance verifiers, diluent packs, and a clinical chemistry instrument (VITROS 5.1 FS Chemistry System). These are all hardware components necessary for the device's function.

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

Here's why:

  • Explicit Statement: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "For in vitro diagnostic use only." for the reagent, calibrator, and performance verifiers.
  • Purpose: The device is intended to "quantitatively measure total homocysteine (HCY) concentration in human serum and plasma." This measurement is used to "assist in the diagnosis and treatment of patients suspected of having hyperhomocysteinemia and homocystinuria." This clearly indicates the device is used to analyze biological samples in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for medical diagnosis and treatment.
  • Components: The description details reagents, calibrators, and performance verifiers, which are all typical components of an in vitro diagnostic system used for laboratory testing.
  • Methodology: The description of the assay process (spectrophotometric measurement of NADH conversion) is a standard laboratory technique for analyzing biological samples.

The entire description points to a system designed for laboratory testing of human biological samples to aid in medical diagnosis, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Dear Mr. Byrne:

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).

6

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.

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) 276-0484. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its tollefree number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
