Intended Use
The Clearview Advanced™ Strep A test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of Strep A antigen from throat swab specimens as an aid in the diagnosis of Group A Streptococcal infection.
Device Description
The Clearview Advanced™ Strep A test is a qualitative, lateral flow immunoassay for the detection of Strep A carbohydrate antigen directly from a throat swab sample. To perform the test, Reagent 1 (R1) is added to the extraction tube which is coated with a mixture of conjugate antibodies and a lytic enzyme extraction reagent. The lytic enzyme is mixed with colloidal gold conjugated to rabbit anti-Strep A and a second colloidal gold control coniugate antibody. The reagents are dried onto the bottom of an extraction tube forming a red spot. The extraction/conjugate pellet is resuspended with R1 and the throat swab is added to the extraction tube. The Strep A antigen is extracted from the sample and the swab is removed. The test strip is immediately placed in the extracted sample. If Group A Streptococcus is present in the sample, it will react with the anti-Strep A antibody conjugated to the gold particle. The complex will then be bound by the anti-Strep A capture antibody and a visible red test line will appear, indicating a positive result. To serve as an onboard procedural control, the blue line observed at the control site prior to running the assay will turn red, indicating that the test has been performed properly. If Strep A antigen is not present, or present at very low levels, only a red control line will appear. If the red control line does not appear, or remains blue, the test result is invalid.
More Information

No
The device description details a lateral flow immunoassay based on chemical reactions and visual interpretation of lines, with no mention of computational analysis, algorithms, or learning processes.

No
This device is a diagnostic test for detecting Strep A antigen, not a therapeutic device designed to treat or alleviate a condition.

Yes
The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the device is "as an aid in the diagnosis of Group A Streptococcal infection."

No

The device description clearly outlines a physical, lateral flow immunoassay kit involving reagents, tubes, swabs, and a test strip, which are hardware components.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "qualitative detection of Strep A antigen from throat swab specimens as an aid in the diagnosis of Group A Streptococcal infection." This clearly indicates it's used to test a sample taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description details a "rapid chromatographic immunoassay" that detects an "antigen directly from a throat swab sample." This describes a test performed in vitro (outside the body) on a biological specimen.
  • Mechanism: The mechanism involves chemical reactions between the sample and reagents on a test strip to produce a visible result, which is characteristic of many IVD tests.
  • Clinical Performance Study: The document describes a clinical study where the device was compared to bacterial culture using throat swab specimens, which is a standard way to evaluate the performance of an IVD for infectious disease detection.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K992658; Genzyme OSOM® Ultra Strep A Test) which is also an IVD, further supports that this device falls into the same category.

All these factors 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)

Clinical Performance:
The clinical performance of the Clearview Advanced Strep A test was established in a multi-center, prospective clinical study conducted in 2008-2009 at five geographically diverse physician office, clinics, and emergency departments within the United States.
A total of 297 throat swab specimens were evaluated by comparing the Clearview Advanced Strep A test to bacterial culture.
Key results: Sensitivity was 91.5% (95% Cl 85.0% to 95.3%) and specificity was 95.0% (95% Cl 90.7% to 97.3%).

Analytical Sensitivity (Limit of Detection):
The limit of detection (LOD) was determined by evaluating different concentrations of Group A Streptococcus.
The detection limit of the Clearview Advanced Strep A test was determined to be 1x10^4 organisms/test.

Analytical Specificity (Cross-Reactivity):
38 commensal and pathogenic microorganisms including bacteria, viruses and yeast that may be present in the mouth or throat were tested to determine analytical specificity.
All of the tested microorganisms were negative when tested at a concentration of 1x10^6 organisms/test.

Reproducibility:
A blind study was conducted at 3 separate sites using panels of blind coded specimens.
Participants tested each sample multiple times on 5 different days.
No significant difference between runs (5 different days), between sites (3 sites), and between operators (6 operators).

Streptococcus spp. serological reagents.(a)
Identification. Streptococcus spp. serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera (excluding streptococcal exoenzyme reagents made from enzymes secreted by streptococci) used in serological tests to identifyStreptococcus spp. from cultured isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by bacteria belonging to the genusStreptococcus and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Pathogenic streptococci are associated with infections, such as sore throat, impetigo (an infection characterized by small pustules on the skin), urinary tract infections, rheumatic fever, and kidney disease.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 866.9.
