Intended Use / Indications for Use
The ProFlu+™ Assay is a multiplex Real Time RT-PCR in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid and qualitative detection and discrimination of Influenza A Virus, Influenza B Virus, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) nucleic acids isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients. This test is intended for use to aid in the differential diagnosis of Influenza A, Influenza B and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect Influenza C.
Negative results do not preclude influenza or RSV virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions. It is recommended that negative RSV results be confirmed by culture.
Performance characteristics for Influenza A Virus were established when Influenza A/H3 and A/H1 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. When other Influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary.
If infections with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

Device Description
The ProFlu+ Assay enables detection and differentiation of Influenza A Virus, Influenza B Virus, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) (Types A and B), and Internal Control. Nasopharyngeal swab specimens are collected from symptomatic patients using a polyester, rayon or nylon tipped swab and place into viral transport medium.
An Internal Control (IC) is added to each sample prior to nucleic acid isolation to monitor for inhibitors present in the specimens. The isolation and purification of the nucleic acids is performed using either a MagNA Pure LC Instrument (Roche) and the MagNA Pure Total Nucleic Acid Isolation Kit (Roche) or a NucliSENS® easyMAGTM System (bioMérieux) and the Automated Magnetic Extraction Reagents (bioMérieux).
The purified nucleic acids are added to ProFlu+ Supermix along with enzymes included in the ProFlu+ Detection Kit. The ProFlu+ Supermix contains oligonucleotide primers and target-specific oligonucleotide probes. The primers are complementary to highly conserved regions of genetic sequences for these respiratory viruses. The probes are dual-labeled with a reporter dye attached to the 5'-end and a quencher dye attached to the 3'-end.
Reverse transcription of the RNA in the sample into complementary DNA (cDNA) and subsequent amplification of DNA is performed in a Cepheid SmartCycler® II instrument. In this process, the probe anneals specifically to the template followed by primer extension and amplification. The ProFlu+ Assay is based on Tagman chemistry, which utilizes the 5' - 3' exonuclease activity of the Taq polymerase to cleave the probe thus separating the reporter dye from the quencher. This generates an increase in fluorescent signal upon excitation from a light source. With each cycle, additional reporter dye molecules are cleaved from their respective probes, further increasing fluorescent signal. The amount of fluorescence at any given cycle is dependent on the amount of amplification products present at that time. Fluorescent intensity is monitored during each PCR cycle by the SmartCycler instrument.

Performance characteristics of the ProFlu+ Assay were established during a prospective study at 3 U.S. clinical laboratories and a retrospective study at 1 U.S. site during the 2006-2007 respiratory virus season (February - April). Samples used for this study were nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens that were collected for routine influenza or RSV testing by each site.
The reference method was rapid culture (shell vial) followed by direct fluorescent antibody (DFA) screening and identification.
A total of 891 NP swab samples were tested with the ProFlu+ Assay and by culture. Five (5) samples that initially gave unresolved results remained unresolved upon retesting with the ProFlu+ Assay and are not included in the analysis below. All 5 samples were culture negative.
A total of 23 samples were DFA Respiratory Virus Screen positive (screening reagent detects Influenza A and B, RSV, Parainfluenza 1, 2 and 3 and Adenovirus), but contained too few cells to obtain a specific positive identification. 21 of these 23 samples were also positive by the ProFlu+ Assay (9 Influenza A, 11 Influenza B and 1 RSV positives) and genetic sequencing analysis confirmed the identification of the specific virus. The other 2 DFA screen positive samples were negative by the ProFlu+ Assay and sequence analysis confirmed that they were negative for Influenza A, Influenza B and RSV; these 2 samples were considered true negatives. Discrepant analysis for samples where ProFlu+ Assay and culture results were in disagreement was performed using RT-PCR with virus specific primers obtained from literature followed by sequencing.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical Performance: A prospective study (sample size 826) and a retrospective study (sample size 60) were conducted.
Key results are presented in tables detailing Sensitivity and Specificity.
Reproducibility study:
The reproducibility of the ProFlu+ Assay was evaluated at 3 laboratory sites. Reproducibility was assessed using a panel of 10 simulated samples that included medium and low (near the assay limit of detection) Influenza A, Influenza B, or RSV positive and negative samples. Panels and controls were tested at each site by 2 operators for 5 days (10 samples and 5 controls X 2 operators X 5 days X 3 sites = 450). The overall percent agreement for the ProFlu+ Assay was 98%.

Indication for Use
510(k) Number (if known): K081030
Device Name: ProFlu+ Assay
Indication For Use:
The ProFlu+TM Assay is a multiplex Real Time RT-PCR in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid and qualitative detection and discrimination of Influenza A Virus, Influenza B Virus, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) nucleic acids isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients. This test is intended for use to aid in the differential diagnosis of Influenza A, Influenza B and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect Influenza C.
Negative results do not preclude influenza or RSV virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions. It is recommended that negative RSV results be confirmed by culture.
Performance characteristics for Influenza A Virus were established when Influenza A/H3 and A/H1 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. When other Influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary.
If infections with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.
