AI/ML (Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning)

No
The document describes image analysis software that provides a suggested score based on quantitative analysis of staining intensity and extent. It explicitly states the software makes "no independent interpretations of the data" and acts as a "tool for the user." There is no mention of AI, ML, or any learning capabilities.

Therapeutic

No
The device is intended to aid in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of Her2/neu, which is a diagnostic function, not a therapeutic one. It assists pathologists in scoring and interpreting tissue samples for breast cancer assessment, but does not treat the condition.

Diagnostic

Yes

The device aids in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of Her2/neu in tissue to assess breast cancer patients, and the results are used as an aid in management, prognosis, and prediction of therapy outcomes, which are all diagnostic functions.

SaMD (Software as a Medical Device)

No

The device description explicitly states that the system consists of both an instrument (iScan slide scanner) and image analysis software, and includes hardware components like the scanner, computer, monitor, keyboard, and mouse.

IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic)

Based on the provided information, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for "clinical laboratory use" and is an "accessory to the DAKO HercepTest to aid in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of Her2/neu in formalin fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue." This clearly indicates it's used to analyze biological specimens (tissue) to provide information about a patient's health status (HER2/neu expression in breast cancer).
Device Description: The device processes "formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue" and provides "semi-quantitative analysis of extent and intensity of stained tissue," which is a diagnostic process performed on biological samples.
Context: The device is used in conjunction with the DAKO HercepTest, which is itself an IVD for HER2/neu testing. The PATHIAM system is designed to assist in the interpretation of the results from this IVD test.
Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on the agreement and reproducibility of the device's scoring with manual methods and between different users and systems, which are typical evaluations for IVD devices.

While the device description emphasizes that the pathologist makes the final interpretation and the software acts as an aid, the core function is to analyze biological material (stained tissue) to provide data relevant to a diagnosis and treatment decision (HER2/neu status for Herceptin consideration). This aligns with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description

The PATHIAMIM System is an instrument (iScan) and image analysis software system designed to assist the qualified pathologist in the consistent quantitative assessment of marker expression in immunohistochemically stained histological sections digital images. The sample tissue is breast tissue prepared using the DAKO HercepTest Reagent Kit. The PATHIAM system consists of the BioImagene iScan slide scanner, computer with the PATHIAM Software, monitor, keyboard and mouse.

The PATHIAM System digitizes formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded normal and neoplastic tissue and provides semi-quantitative analysis of extent and intensity of stained tissue, providing the pathologist with an aid to interpretation of the level of expression of HER2/neu in breast cancer tissue. The pathologist is presented with a digital image of the tissue section and a suggested staining score (0 to 3). The pathologist then makes an assessment of the digital image and reports his/her score. Alternately, the pathologist can simply use the digitized image to perform his interpretation of the level of expression, without employing the software.

The iScan slide scanning device captures digital images of Hardware: formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues that are suitable for storage, viewing and visual analysis. The device includes a digital slide scanner, racks for loading glass slides, an Intel based PC, dual core, dual Xeon processor, PATHIAM Software, and a monitor.

The PATHIAM Software requires competent human Software: intervention at all steps in the analysis process. The system is designed to complement the routine workflow of a qualified pathologist screening the immunohistochemically stained histological slides with additional quantitative data to assist the reproducibility of the slide interpretation. It allows the user to select the area of interest on the breast tissue image. The user marks the area of interest for the analysis. The system software makes no independent interpretations of the data. The software will act as a tool for the user, to improve consistency and data recording. The image produced digitally may also be used independent of the software, by allowing the pathologist to count from the digital image, rather than from the microscope.

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

a. Reproducibility Study between Pathologists and PATHIAM Systems
The PATHIAM System was tested by analyzing images of the same set of 176 stained tissue specimens by three pathologists at three sites. Pathologists recorded their estimation of the score from the score provided by the PATHIAM System plus their review of the digital images provided by the software. Concordance for the PATHIAM System values between labs ranged from 89% to 92%.

b. Comparison with Manual HercepTest method
Values for staining intensity were obtained from a review of PATHIAM values by trained pathologists at three sites, who viewed both the digital images and the score provided by the software, and then selected an appropriate tissue score (0 to 3). The same pathologists read the same slides manually using the DAKO HercepTest package insert. The manual assessments took place 7 days before the experiments with the PATHIAM System were completed at the site.

c. BioImagene iScan Slide Scanner Reproducibility

iScan Slide Scanner Precision
Eight samples, two each with manual scores of 0, 1+, 2+ and 3+ were scanned 5 times on the iScan slide scanner. The precision was calculated to be 97%.
Inter-run/Inter System Reproducibility
Eight samples, two each with manual scores of 0, 1+, 2+ and 3+ were scanned 5 times on 3 different iScan slide scanners. The agreement between the PATHIAM System scores for different scans is 100% and for different iScan slide scanners was 100%.

Regulation Number and Section

§ 864.1860 Immunohistochemistry reagents and kits.

(a)
Identification. Immunohistochemistry test systems (IHC's) are in vitro diagnostic devices consisting of polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies labeled with directions for use and performance claims, which may be packaged with ancillary reagents in kits. Their intended use is to identify, by immunological techniques, antigens in tissues or cytologic specimens. Similar devices intended for use with flow cytometry devices are not considered IHC's.(b)
Classification of immunohistochemistry devices. (1) Class I (general controls). Except as described in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this section, these devices are exempt from the premarket notification requirements in part 807, subpart E of this chapter. This exemption applies to IHC's that provide the pathologist with adjunctive diagnostic information that may be incorporated into the pathologist's report, but that is not ordinarily reported to the clinician as an independent finding. These IHC's are used after the primary diagnosis of tumor (neoplasm) has been made by conventional histopathology using nonimmunologic histochemical stains, such as hematoxylin and eosin. Examples of class I IHC's are differentiation markers that are used as adjunctive tests to subclassify tumors, such as keratin.(2) Class II (special control, guidance document: “FDA Guidance for Submission of Immunohistochemistry Applications to the FDA,” Center for Devices and Radiologic Health, 1998). These IHC's are intended for the detection and/or measurement of certain target analytes in order to provide prognostic or predictive data that are not directly confirmed by routine histopathologic internal and external control specimens. These IHC's provide the pathologist with information that is ordinarily reported as independent diagnostic information to the ordering clinician, and the claims associated with these data are widely accepted and supported by valid scientific evidence. Examples of class II IHC's are those intended for semiquantitative measurement of an analyte, such as hormone receptors in breast cancer.
(3) Class III (premarket approval). IHC's intended for any use not described in paragraphs (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section.
(c)
Date of PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act is required for any device described in paragraph (b)(3) of this section before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 864.3.
