Intended Use
The BinaxNOW® Malaria Positive Control is intended for use as an assayed positive external quality control with the qualitative BinaxNOW® Malain Test. It is designed for routine external quality control with the qualitative BinaxNOV® Malaina Test. It is designed for routi proper of the qualitative BinaxNOW "Malana" rest. It is designed for routine use to aid in wisition Test.
Device Description
The BinaxNOW® Malaria Positive Control is a recombinant antigen control containing a mixture of HRP II (histidine-rich protein II), which is specific for Plasmodium falciparum (P.f.), and a pan-malarial antigen (aldolase), which is common to P.f., P. vivax, P. ovale, and P. malariae. The BinaxNOW® Malaria Positive Control can be used as a quality control sample representative of a positive test result and to verify proper performance of the procedure and reagents of the BinaxNOW® Malaria test, when it is used in accordance with the BinaxNOW® Malaria test product insert. The BinaxNOW® Malaria Positive Control is supplied lyophilized and is reconstituted using deionized water. The reconstituted control is then added to a pool of presumed negative EDTA human whole blood for use in the BinaxNOW® Malaria Test. When run on the BinaxNOW® Malaria Test, the positive control should always generate positive results on both the P.f.specific (HRP II) test line and on the pan malarial test line. This demonstrates that the test reagents are working properly and the operator performed the test procedure correctly.

The device is a positive control for a malaria test, consisting of recombinant antigens. The description focuses on its composition and intended use for verifying the performance of the test kit and operator, not on any analytical or interpretive functions that would typically involve AI/ML.

No.
This device is an external quality control for a diagnostic test. It is used to verify the proper performance of a malaria test and its reagents, not to treat or diagnose a patient's condition.

No

Explanation: The device is a positive control used to verify the proper performance of a qualitative malaria test, not to diagnose a patient's condition.

No

The device description clearly indicates the device is a physical, lyophilized control material that is reconstituted and used in a laboratory setting with a physical malaria test kit. It is not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "intended for use as an assayed positive external quality control with the qualitative BinaxNOW® Malain Test." Quality controls for diagnostic tests are a key component of the IVD ecosystem.
  • Device Description: The description details the composition of the control (recombinant antigens) and how it is used in conjunction with the BinaxNOW® Malaria Test to verify proper performance of the test procedure and reagents. This is a typical function of an IVD quality control.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (Bio-Rad Laboratories (Blackhawk BioSystems, Inc.) CryptoTrol™) strongly suggests that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD device, which is a common practice in the regulatory pathway for IVDs.

While the text doesn't explicitly use the phrase "In Vitro Diagnostic," the context of its intended use as a quality control for a diagnostic test, its composition, and the mention of a predicate device all point to it being an IVD.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.

Dear Ms. Jepson:

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

3

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). 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 (301) 594-3084. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21CFR Part 807.97). Other general information on your responsibilities under the Act may be obtained from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 443-6597 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/dsma/dsmamain.html.
