Intended Use

The Access SHBG assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of Sex Hormone Binding Globulin levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems. The Access Sex Hormone Binding Globulin assay is indicated for use in the assessment of androgen disorders.

The Access SHBG Calibrators are intended to calibrate the Access SHBG assay for the quantitative determination of Sex Hormone Binding Globulin levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.

The Access SHBG QC is intended for monitoring system performance of the Access SHBG assay.

Device Description

The Access SHBG assay is a sequential two-step immunoenzymatic ("sandwich") assay. A sample is added to a reaction vessel along with paramagnetic particles coated with anti-SHBG antibody. During incubation, the SHBG antigen in the sample binds to the immobilized anti-SHBG antibody on the solid phase. Alkaline phosphatase conjugated anti-SHBG antibody is then added and reacts with a different antigenic site on the SHBG molecule. After incubation in a reaction vessel, materials bound to the solid phase are held in a magnetic field while unbound materials are washed away. Then, the chemiluminescent substrate Lumi-Phos 530 is added to the vessel and light generated by the reaction is measured with a luminometer. The light production is directly proportional to the concentration of SHBG in the sample. The amount of analyte in the sample is determined from a stored, multi-point calibration curve.

Study Information:

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

  • Imprecision Study: Four patient samples at varying SHBG levels were used. The study involved running these samples for 20 different days, completing 2 runs per day, resulting in 480 data points (n=480) for the mean calculation.
  • Analytical Sensitivity (LoB & LoD): Specific sample numbers are not provided, but the statement indicates "lowest level sample where the beta-percentile (...) was 5% or less" was used for LoD, and LoB used a 97.5% upper confidence limit.
  • Dilution Recovery: Three serum samples were used (206.58 nmol/L, 35.81 nmol/L, and 2.90 nmol/L).
  • Methods Comparison: 158 values (samples or observations) were used. The range of observations was 5.7-184.5 nmol/L. The data provenance is not explicitly stated in terms of country of origin but implies human serum from "patient samples." It is implied to be prospective as it's a comparison of a new device against an existing one, likely conducted as part of the validation.
  • Interferences & Cross-Reactivity: Not explicitly stated, but derived from studies based on CLSI EP7-A2 guidance, which typically involve spiking known interferents into patient or control samples.

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

  • This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay for quantitative determination of SHBG levels. The "ground truth" for such devices is typically established through reference methods, established predicate devices, or calibrated reference materials, not through expert consensus in the way a diagnostic imaging device would use radiologists. The methods comparison study used a "commercially available enzyme immunoassay system" (the DPC Immulite SHBG) as a comparator, which itself has an established analytical performance. No human experts are explicitly mentioned as establishing ground truth in this context.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

  • Not applicable in the traditional sense for an immunoassay. Discrepancies in results would be investigated through re-testing, calibration checks, or instrument troubleshooting, rather than human expert adjudication of a diagnostic finding.

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:

  • Not applicable. This device is an immunoassay for quantitative chemical analysis, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging or interpretation tool that would involve human readers.

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

  • This is a standalone device in the sense that it performs automated quantitative measurements. There is no "human-in-the-loop" for the direct measurement itself; the human interacts with the system by placing samples and interpreting the numerical results. The performance data presented (imprecision, sensitivity, linearity, method comparison) are inherently "standalone" performance metrics of the device.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • The ground truth for the method comparison study was established by the predicate device (DPC Immulite SHBG assay).
  • For other analytical performance studies (imprecision, sensitivity, linearity, interference, cross-reactivity), the ground truth is established by known concentrations in control materials, spiked samples, or reference standards, based on established laboratory practices and CLSI guidelines.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

  • Not applicable for this type of immunoassay. These devices are typically developed and validated using analytical studies rather than machine learning "training sets." The calibration curve is established using calibrators with known concentrations, which are analogous to a very small "training set" for the device's internal measurement algorithm, but not in the sense of a large machine learning dataset. Five calibrator levels (S1-S5) plus S0 are used to establish the calibration curve.

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

  • The "ground truth" for the calibrators (S1-S5) is established by using purified human SHBG at known concentrations, traced to the WHO 95/560 standard. This ensures accuracy and traceability of the quantitative measurements.

Analytical Sensitivity:

Limit of Blank (Analytical Sensitivity)

Limit of Blank (LoB) for Access SHBG was determined to be 0.017 nmol/L. LoB was tested using a protocol based on CLSI EP17-A. The 97.5% upper confidence limit of this estimate was determined as LoB.

Limit of Detection

Limit of Detection (LoD) of Access SHBG assay was determined to be 0.33 nmol/L, based on the lowest level sample where the beta-percentile (defined as the percentage of observations below LoB) was 5% or less. The LoD study was run under a protocol based on CLSI EP17-A.

Dilution Recovery (Linearity): Dilution recovery studies were performed by diluting three serum samples at 206.58 nmol/L (sample 1), 35.81 nmol/L (sample 2), and 2.90 nmol/L (sample 3) respectively, with Access Wash Buffer II. Sample mean recovery values were 103% Mean Recovery for sample 1. 101% Mean Recovery for sample 2. and 100% Mean Recovery for sample 3.

Methods Comparison (External Site):

A comparison of 158 values, with a range of observations of 5.7-184.5 nmol/L, using the Access SHBG assay on the UniCel Dxl 800 immunoassay system and a commercially available enzyme immunoassay system gave the following statistical data using Passing Bablok calculations:

  • Intercept (95% Confidence Interval)= 1.84 (0.54-3.00) nmol/L ●
  • Slope (95% Confidence Interval)= 1.09 (1.06-1.12) .
  • Correlation Coefficient (r2)= 0.94 .
