More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and performance studies focus on a traditional clotting assay method and do not mention any AI or ML components.

No
The device is intended for the quantitative determination of functional Protein S activity in human plasma, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one.

Yes

The device "ThromboTek PSe" is intended for the "quantitative determination of functional Protein S activity in human plasma" and for "identifying inherited or acquired Protein S deficiency." This indicates its use in assessing a medical condition, which falls under the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device description clearly states that ThromboTek PSe is a "tissue factor pathway based clotting assay" and lists several lyophilized preparations and solutions as components. This indicates it is a reagent kit, not a software-only device.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states it's for the "quantitative determination of functional Protein S activity in human plasma." This indicates it's used to test a sample taken from the human body (plasma) to provide information about a medical condition (Protein S deficiency).
  • Device Description: The description details the components of a "tissue factor pathway based clotting assay," which is a laboratory test performed on biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes various performance studies (precision, linearity, sensitivity, interference, normal range, method comparison, stability) which are typical evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their analytical performance.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" (K913424; StaClot® Protein S) is a strong indicator that this device is being compared to an already cleared IVD device, a common practice in regulatory submissions for IVDs.

All these elements align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

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

Performance evaluation of the ThromboTek PSe kit included studies of precision, linearity, analytical sensitivity, common interferants, normal range, correlation with the StaClot® kit, and reconstituted and accelerated stability. The method, samples, reagents, and results of each study are described in detail in section 23, Performance Data. No bench (section 20), animal (section 21), or clinical (section 22) testing was required. Summaries of the studies are:

Precision:
Precision estimates of three lots of ThromboTek PSe were determined in a two run per day, twenty day exercise using a normal plasma and an abnormal plasma as described in the CLSI guideline EP5-A2 (7).

  • Normal Plasma: Repeatability 4.9%, Total 5.7%
  • Abnormal Plasma: Repeatability 7.8%, Total 9.2%

Linearity:
Linearity studies of three lots of ThromboTek PSe were determined on a Stago ST4 analyzer. The ThromboTek PSe assay was linear from 10% Protein S to the maximum tested concentration of 156% Protein S.

Analytical Sensitivity:
The lower limit of detection for three lots of ThromboTek PSe were determined by replicate measurement of IBS alone as the sample on an AMAX 200 analyzer in mechanical mode, and the % PS activity was calculated from the sum of the mean and 3 standard deviations. The lower limit of detection of the assay was 1% PS.

Interferences:
Interference studies of multiple lots of ThromboTek PSe were determined on an AMAX 200 analyzer in mechanical mode. Interferant was spiked into pooled normal plasma and a dilution series prepared. The maximum concentration tolerated in the assay was defined as the highest concentration of interferant wherein any consistent shift relative to the recovered value of the base PNP was less than 10%.

  • Hemolysis (Hemoglobin): Maximum tolerated concentration 500 mg/dL
  • Icterus (Unconjugated bilirubin): Maximum tolerated concentration 20 mg/dL
  • Lipemia (IntraLipid®): Maximum tolerated concentration 2,000 mg triglyceride/dL
  • Heparin: Maximum tolerated concentration 1.0 U/mL

Normal Reference Range:
In a representative study one hundred twenty healthy donors were analyzed for Protein S activity with each of three lots of ThromboTek PSe on an AMAX 200 analyzer in mechanical mode. Assay calibration was performed using the SSC/ISTH Secondary Coagulation Standard Lot #3 available from NIBSC.

  • All Donors (120): Mean 120% PS, Range 47% - 193% PS
  • Males only (35): Mean 135% PS, Range 62% - 209% PS
  • Females only (85): Mean 114% PS, Range 45% - 183% PS

Method Comparison:
A total of one hundred seventy-four patient samples were assayed for Protein S activity with multiple lots of ThromboTek PSe and two lots of another commercially available Protein S activity assay. The data was collected in two sites, one using an AMAX 200 analyzer and the other a STart4 analyzer. As determined by Kruskal-Wallis analysis the data was pooled and then further analyzed by linear regression. The correlation coefficient was 0.895 (95% CI, 0.875-0.912) and the coefficient of determination was 0.801, with a slope and intercept of 1.71 and -8.59 respectively.

Reconstituted Stability:
The reconstituted stability of the ThromboTek PSe kit was assessed by longitudinal studies of three lots. The recoveries of two control plasmas were assessed at the initial reconstitution of each kit, and thereafter at periodic time points. The kit components were stored capped when not in use and freshly reconstituted control plasmas were prepared at each time point. With criteria of an age-related trend and a maximum shift of twice the precision CV, the predicted reconstituted stability of the ThromboTek PSe kit is 24 hours when stored at 2-8°C and 8 hours when stored at room temperature (23-25°C).

Accelerated Stability:
Expiry dating was predicted by a heat stress accelerated stability study of one lot of ThromboTek PSe. The study used two different sets of the kit lyophilized components, with one set stressed at 37℃ for up to 25 days and the second set at 45℃ for up to 7 days. Thereafter three lots of control plasmas were assayed with the unstressed and stressed components, and assessed for any age-related shift in recoveries. With criteria of an age-related trend and a maximum shift of 10%, the predicted expiry dating of the ThromboTek PSe kit is 2 years when stored at 2-8°C.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

Sensitivity: 1% PS (Lower limit of detection).
Correlation coefficient: 0.895 (Method Comparison).

L. Test Principle

Thromboplastin is a tissue-derived complex incorporating the protein Tissue Factor (TF) associated with lipid vesicles. When Thromboplastins are added to plasmas the endogenous Factor VII (FVII) or activated Factor VII (FVIIa) in the plasma complex with the Tissue Factor and lipid vesicle in the presence of calcium, which then activates the Tissue Factor pathway of blood coagulation. This TF/FVIIa complex activates Factor X (FX) to activated FX (FXa). Factor Xa complexes with activated Factor V (FVa) on a lipid surface in the presence of calcium to form the prothrombinase complex. The prothrombinase complex activates Prothrombin to Thrombin. Thrombin, without any cofactors or ion dependency, will cleave Fibrinogen to Fibrin, leading to formation of a solid clot.

Activated Protein C (aPC) in the presence of its cofactor Protein S (PS) degrades activated Factor Va (and VIIIa), reducing the catalytic efficiency of the prothrombinase complex. When the assay conditions are chosen such that an excess of aPC is present and the concentration of Protein S in the patient sample is rate limiting, the time to clot of the patient plasma becomes proportional to the

3

concentration of the patient PS and can be used to quantify the PS activity in the sample.
