Intended Use
The BD ProbeTecT™ Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) Q* Amplified DNA Assay, when tested with the BD Viper™ System in Extracted Mode, uses Strand Displacement Amplification technology for the direct, qualitative detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA in clinician-collected female endocervical and male urethral swab specimens, patient-collected vaginal swab specimens (in a clinical setting), and male and female urine specimens (both UPT and Neat). The assay is also intended for use with gynecological specimens collected in BD SurePath™ Preservative Fluid using an aliquot that is removed prior to processing for the BD SurePath™ Pap test. The assay is indicated for use with asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals to aid in the diagnosis of gonococcal urogenital disease.
Device Description
The BD ProbeTec GC O* Amplified DNA Assay is based on the simultaneous amplification and detection of target DNA using amplification primers and a fluorescently-labeled detector probe. The reagents for SDA are dried in two separate disposable microwells: the Priming Microwell contains the amplification primers, fluorescently-labeled detector probe, nucleotides and other reagents necessary for amplification, while the Amplification Microwell contains the two enzymes (a DNA polymerase and a restriction endonuclease) that are required for SDA. The BD Viper™ System pipettes a portion of the purified DNA solution from each Extraction Tube into a Priming Microwell to rehydrate the contents. After a brief incubation, the reaction mixture is transferred to a corresponding, pre-warmed Amplification Microwell which is sealed to prevent contamination and then incubated in one of the two thermally-controlled fluorescent readers. The presence or absence of N. gonorrhoeae DNA is determined by calculating the peak fluorescence (Maximum Relative Fluorescent Units (MaxRFU)) over the course of the amplification process and by comparing this measurement to a predetermined threshold value. In addition to the fluorescent probe used to detect amplified N. gonorrhoeae target DNA, a second labeled oligonucleotide is incorporated in each reaction. The Extraction Control (EC) oligonucleotide is labeled with a different dye than that used for detection of the N. gonorrhoeae -specific target and is used to confirm the validity of the extraction process. The EC is dried in the Extraction Tubes and is rehydrated upon addition of the specimen and extraction reagents. At the end of the extraction process, the EC fluorescence is monitored by the BD Viper System and an automated algorithm is applied to both the EC and N. gonorrhoeae -specific signals to report results as positive, negative, or EC failure.
More Information

No
The description focuses on traditional molecular diagnostic techniques (SDA, fluorescence detection) and a simple automated algorithm for result interpretation based on a predetermined threshold. There is no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts.

No.
The device is described as an "Amplified DNA Assay" for direct, qualitative detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA, intended "to aid in the diagnosis of gonococcal urogenital disease." This indicates its function as a diagnostic tool, not one that provides therapy or treatment.

Yes

The device is intended "to aid in the diagnosis of gonococcal urogenital disease," which clearly indicates a diagnostic purpose.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components like microwells, reagents, enzymes, and the BD Viper™ System, which is a hardware instrument. While software is involved in data analysis and reporting, the device is not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the assay is used for the "direct, qualitative detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae DNA" in various human specimens (swabs and urine). This is a classic definition of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it is performed outside of the body on biological samples to aid in the diagnosis of a disease (gonococcal urogenital disease).
  • Device Description: The description details the components and process of the assay, which involves the analysis of DNA from the collected specimens using chemical and biological reagents and a detection system (fluorescence). This is consistent with the methodology of an IVD.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes details about clinical performance studies conducted on human specimens to evaluate the assay's sensitivity and specificity in detecting Neisseria gonorrhoeae. This type of testing is required for IVD devices to demonstrate their accuracy and reliability for diagnostic purposes.
  • Key Metrics: The reporting of metrics like Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, and NPV are standard performance indicators for IVD devices.
  • Predicate Device(s): The mention of predicate devices, which are other legally marketed IVDs, further confirms that this device falls under the IVD category.

In summary, the BD ProbeTecT™ Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) Q* Amplified DNA Assay meets the criteria of an In Vitro Diagnostic device based on its intended use, methodology, and the type of performance data presented.

A reproducibility study of the BD Viper System using the BD ProbeTec GC Qd Assay was evaluated for Liquid Based Cytology (LBC) specimens at three clinical sites on one BD Viper System per site. A panel of simulated specimens comprising CT and GC organisms seeded into LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium was tested with the BD ProbeTec GC Q* Assay. Uninoculated LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium were used for the GC negative samples. Nine replicates of each panel member were tested every day for five days on each BD Viper System.

Two additional levels were included in the panels to characterize the reproducibility of test results (i.e., proportion positive or negative) at target levels below the analytical Limit of Detection (LOD) of the BD ProbeTec GC Q* Assay. These additional specimens comprised CT and GC organisms seeded into LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium at dilutions of 1:10 and 1:100 of the respective analytical LODs of each analyte. These levels were selected to fall within the dynamic range of the analytical LOD curves for the BD ProbeTec CT Q and GC Q assays. Nine replicates of each panel member were tested every day for five days across the three BD Viper Systems.

Summary and Principles of Operation

When used with the BD Viper System, the BD ProbeTec GC Q* Amplified DNA Assay involves automated extraction of DNA from clinical specimens through the chemical lysis of cells, followed by binding of DNA to para-magnetic particles, washing of the bound nucleic acid and elution in an amplification-compatible buffer. When present, N. gonorrhoeae DNA is then detected by Strand Displacement Amplification (SDA) of a specific target sequence in the presence of a fluorescently labeled detector probe.

Reproducibility

A reproducibility study of the BD Viper System using the BD ProbeTec GC Qd Assay was also evaluated for Liquid Based Cytology (LBC) specimens at three clinical sites on one BD Viper System per site. A panel of simulated specimens comprising CT and GC organisms seeded into LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium was tested with the BD ProbeTec GC Q* Assay. Uninoculated LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium were used for the GC negative samples. Nine replicates of each panel member were tested every day for five days on each BD Viper System. The data are summarized in Table 5.

Two additional levels were included in the panels to characterize the reproducibility of test results (i.e., proportion positive or negative) at target levels below the analytical Limit of Detection (LOD) of the BD ProbeTec GC Q* Assay. These additional specimens comprised CT and GC organisms seeded into LBC Specimen Dilution Tubes containing LBC medium at dilutions of 1:10 and 1:100 of the respective analytical LODs of each analyte. These levels were selected to fall within the dynamic range of the analytical LOD curves for the BD ProbeTec CT Q and GC Q assays. Nine replicates of each panel member were tested every day for five days across the three BD Viper Systems. The data are summarized in Table 6.
