Intended Use

The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent, intended for in vitro diagnostic use, is a three color immunofluorescence stain for the labeling, identification, and enumeration of helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) and cytotoxic/suppressor (CD3+CD8+) T lymphocytes combined with a precise number of fluorescent counting beads to provide absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-Cell counts on a single platform. This reagent is intended to be used for flow cytometric analysis of erythrocyte-lysed human whole blood. The Tri T-STAT Reagent can be used to monitor forms of immunodeficiency.

Device Description

The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent contains Atto488 - labeled CD4 monoclonal antibody (clone RPA-T4); phycoerythrin(PE) - labeled CD8 monoclonal antibody (clone LT8); and PE = Dyomics649 - labeled CD3 monoclonal antibody (clone UCHT1) formulated with fluorescent counting beads and stabilizers. The conjugated antibodies and beads are dispensed into flow cytometer compatible plastic tubes and dried. The material in each tube is used to process a single sample. The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent, three color immunofluorescence stain, labels, identifies, and enumerates helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) and cytotoxic/suppressor (CD3+CD8+) T lymphocytes. Combined with a precise number of fluorescent counting beads, in each tube, the reagent provides absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-Cell counts on a single platform.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the performance characteristics of the Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent, a device for enumerating T lymphocytes.

Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the provided text:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

Acceptance Criteria / Performance CharacteristicReported Device Performance
Precision/ReproducibilityAcceptable. Average %CV better than 10% for high, medium, and low count samples (10 replicates within run).
Linearity (CD4+ T-cells)Acceptable. Correlation coefficient > 0.99 over reportable range (65-1500 cells/ul).
Linearity (CD8+ T-cells)Acceptable. Correlation coefficient > 0.99 over reportable range (50-1500 cells/ul).
Sample Stability (24 hours post-draw)Acceptable for absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell concentrations.
Sample Stability (7 days, processed at phlebotomy)Acceptable for absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell concentrations.
Cross-reactivityMonoclonal antibodies' specificities (established at International Workshops on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens) were maintained after conjugation.
Correlation to Predicate Devices (CD4+ T-cell counts)R² = 0.99, 0.93, 0.91, & 0.99 when compared at four different sites.
Correlation to Predicate Devices (CD8+ T-cell counts)R² = 0.96, 0.91, & 0.96 when compared at four different sites.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance

  • Sample Size: 291 samples were used for the correlation study against predicate devices.
  • Data Provenance: The correlation study was conducted at "four different sites." The country of origin is not explicitly stated, but the submission is to the US FDA, implying relevance to a US context or similar regulatory standards. The study appears to be retrospective in the sense that the predicate devices are already established, and these samples were analyzed using both the new device and predicate devices. However, the exact nature (e.g., archived samples vs. newly collected for the study) is not specified.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts

This information is not provided in the document. The ground truth for the correlation study appears to be the results obtained from the predicate devices, not an expert-established ground truth.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

This information is not applicable and therefore not provided. The study design directly compares the new device's output to that of predicate devices; there is no indication of an independent adjudication process for discrepancies.

5. 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

This information is not applicable and therefore not provided. The device is a diagnostic reagent for flow cytometric analysis, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool that involves human readers.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

Yes, the performance characteristics described (precision, linearity, sample stability, cross-reactivity, and correlation to predicate devices) represent the standalone performance of the Dry Tri T-STAT reagent. There is no mention of human input or "human-in-the-loop" influencing its measurement outputs once samples are processed according to the "no wash" protocol.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

For the correlation study, the "ground truth" was established by comparison to predicate devices. For other performance characteristics (precision, linearity, stability), the ground truth is implicitly based on established analytical standards and measurements within an accredited lab setting, rather than expert consensus, pathology, or outcomes data.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

This information is not provided and is not applicable as this device is a reagent for laboratory testing and not an AI/machine learning algorithm requiring a "training set" in the computational sense.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

This information is not provided and is not applicable as the device is a reagent and does not involve a training set.

Intended Use

The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent is a three color immuno-fluorescence stain for the labeling, identification, and enumeration of helper/inducer (CD3+CD4+) and cytotoxic/suppressor (CD3+CD8+) T lymphocytes combined with a precise number of fluorescent counting beads for absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-Cell counts. This reagent is intended to be used in a "no wash" protocol for flow cytometric analysis of erythrocytelysed human whole blood.

Technological Characteristics

The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent, like the predicate devices, contains fluorescently labeled antibodies and fluorescent counting beads that are used to stain specific T-cell populations. These stained cells can be analyzed on any flow cytometer equipped with a 488nm laser, scattering detection, and capable of fluorescence detection in the ranges 515-545nm, 562-607nm, and >650nm.

Fluorescence from the CD4-A488, CD8-PE, and CD3-PE-D649 antibody conjugates can be detected in each of the three wavelength ranges when specifically bound to the cells. The counting beads can be used to determine the volume of sample analyzed on the flow cytometer when a precise volume of blood is dispensed into the tube containing the conjugates and a known number of beads. This allows the single platform determination of the absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell counts.

Performance Characteristics

    1. Precision/Reproducibility
      Within run reproducibility was determined by performing 10 replicates of a high, medium, and low count samples. The results were found to be acceptable with average %CV better than 10%.
    1. Linearity
      The linearity was determined over the reportable ranges for CD4+ (65-1500 cells/ul) and CD8+ (50-1500 cells/ul) T-cells. The linearity was found to be acceptable with correlation coefficients greater than 0.99.
    1. Sample stability
      Sample stability was assessed at 24 hour intervals from the time of phlebotomy. Sample stability with respect to absolute CD4+ and CD8+ T-cell concentrations were acceptable when analyzed 24 hours post draw. If samples were processed at the time of phlebotomy then the counts was found to be stable for 7 days.

4. Cross reactivity

The monoclonal antibodies used in the Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent were assigned these specificities at the International Workshops on Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens. Conjugation has not changed their specificities.

{2}------------------------------------------------

    1. Correlation to predicate devices
      The Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent was compared to the predicate devices at four different sites (291 samples). The correlation of absolute CD4+ & CD8+ T-cell counts were R2=0.99, 0.93, 0.91, & 0.99 and R2=0.96, 0.91, & 0.96, respectively.

Conclusion

The information presented in this pre-market notification for the Dry Tri T-STAT (CD3/CD4/CD8) reagent demonstrates substantial equivalence to the predicate devices.
