No
The device description and performance studies focus on the analytical and clinical performance of a real-time RT-PCR panel, which is a molecular diagnostic technique. There is no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance evaluation sections.

No

This device is a diagnostic tool used to detect and characterize influenza viruses, providing information to aid in diagnosis and surveillance. It does not provide any form of therapy or treatment.

Yes

The device is intended for the qualitative detection and differentiation of influenza virus RNA from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection. This directly aids in the diagnosis of illness.

No

The device is a panel of oligonucleotide primers and probes, which are physical reagents used in a laboratory assay, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the device is for the "qualitative detection of influenza virus type A viral RNA" and "differentiation of 2009 H1N1 influenza virus RNA" from human respiratory specimens. This is a diagnostic purpose performed in vitro (outside the body).
  • Device Description: The description states the panel is used in "real-time RT-PCR (rRT-PCR) assays for the in vitro qualitative detection and characterization of human influenza viruses (RNA) in respiratory specimens from patients presenting with influenza-like illness (ILI)." The phrase "in vitro" is explicitly used.
  • Clinical Performance Studies: The document details clinical performance studies comparing the device's results to reference methods (virus culture and sequencing) using human patient specimens. This is characteristic of an IVD device evaluation.
  • Predicate Devices: The mention of predicate devices (K100148 and K080570) which are also IVDs further supports this classification.

The device is designed to analyze biological samples (respiratory specimens) in vitro to provide diagnostic information about a patient's health status (presence and type of influenza virus).

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The CDC Influenza 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Real-Time RT-PCR Panel (CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel) is intended for use in real-time RT-PCR assays on an Applied Biosystems (ABI) 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR Instrument in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information:

  • For the qualitative detection of influenza virus type A viral RNA from . nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS), nasal swabs (NS), nasal aspirates (NA), nasal washes (NW), dual nasopharyngeal / throat swabs (NPS/TS), broncheoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW), collected from the respiratory tract of human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and/or from viral culture.
  • For differentiation of 2009 H1N1 influenza virus RNA from nasopharyngeal . swabs (NPS), nasal swabs (NS), nasal aspirates (NA), nasal washes (NW) .dual nasopharyngeal / throat swabs (NPS/TS), broncheoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW) collected from the respiratory tract of human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and/or from viral culture.
  • To provide epidemiologic information for surveillance of the 2009 H1N1 influenza virus.

Performance characteristics for influenza A were established during the 2009-2010 influenza season when 2009 H1N1 influenza virus was the predominant influenza A virus in circulation. Performance characteristics may vary against other emerging influenza A viruses.

A negative test result for the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW) is presumptive and it is recommended these results be confirmed by viral culture.

Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions.

If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

The CDC Influenza 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Real-time RT-PCR Panel (CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel) is a panel of oligonucleotide primers and dual-labeled hydrolysis (TaqMan®) probes which may be used in real-time RT-PCR (rRT-PCR) assays for the in vitro qualitative detection and characterization of human influenza viruses (RNA) in respiratory specimens from patients presenting with influenza-like illness (ILI). Detection of viral RNA not only aids in the diagnosis of illness caused by seasonal and novel influenza viruses in patients with ILI, but also provides epidemiologic information on influenza and aids in the presumptive laboratory identification of specific novel influenza A viruses.

The influenza A primer and probe sets are designed for universal detection of type A influenza viruses, Influenza A subtyping primer and probe sets are designed to specifically detect 2009 A (H1N1) influenza virus.

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)ødm Flu Panel is an updated version of the assay distributed by CDC. during the 2009 A(H1N1) pandemic strain to qualified laboratories (CDC rRT-PCR Swine Flu Panel G090072) under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) from the FDA in that it has different sequences of primers and probes that are more specific to the currently circulating 2009 A(H1N1) influenza virus.

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel includes the following primer and probe sets and positive control:

  • InfA detects all influenza A strains, but does not detect influenza B strains .
  • pdm InfA is specific for 2009 influenza A .
  • pdm H1 is specific for 2009 influenza A, subtype H1 .
  • RNase P (RP) detects human RNase P and is used with human clinical . specimens to indicate that adequate isolation of nucleic acid resulted from the extraction of the clinical specimen
  • Inactivated Influenza Typing Panel Real-Time RT-PCR Positive Control is a . positive control designed to react with all the primer and probe sets including RNase P

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel assay is based on real-time RT-PCR technology which is used in many molecular diagnostic assays to date. The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel influenza A primer and probe sets are designed for universal detection of type A influenza viruses. The panel also contains influenza A type and subtyping primer and probe sets designed to specifically detect human 2009 A(H1N1) influenza viruses.

One-step real-time RT-PCR assays are one-tube assays that first reverse-transcribe specific RNA templates into complementary deoxyribonucleic acid (cDNA) copies. The cDNA then serves as template for a polymerase chain reaction that utilizes a thermocyclic heating and cooling of the reaction to logarithmically amplify a specific region of DNA. The probe anneals to a specific target sequence located between the forward and reverse primers. During the extension phase of the PCR cycle, the 5' nuclease activity of Tag polymerase degrades the probe, causing the reporter dye to separate from the quencher dye, generating a fluorescent signal. With each cycle, additional reporter dye molecules are cleaved from their respective probes, increasing the fluorescence intensity. Fluorescence intensity is monitored at each PCR cycle.

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel includes internal positive control materials. The human RNase P (RP) primer and probe set detects human RNase P and is used with human clinical specimens to indicate that adequate isolation of nucleic acid resulted from the extraction process of the clinical specimen. A positive result in the RP assay indicates adequate specimen was present, ensures that common reagents and equipment are functioning properly, and demonstrates the absence of inhibitory substances. A Human Specimen Control (HSC) is a noninfectious cultured human cell material that demonstrates successful recovery of RNA as well as extraction reagent integrity. The Influenza 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Positive Control (pdm PC) consists of influenza viruses representing 2009 A(H1N1) influenza virus and cultured human cells. The pdm PC serves as a rRT-PCR reaction control and demonstrates that the master mix and primer and probe sets for InfA, pdm InfA, pdm H1, and RP are functioning properly. All controls (HSC and pdm PC) are inactivated using beta propiolactone and are noninfectious.

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel components used for testing are similar to the components provided in the CDC rRT-PCR Flu Panel ([IVD] [K080570]}, following the same instructions for use on the ABI 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR system.

Differences

Analytical Performance

1. Limit of Detection

Analytical sensitivity was demonstrated by determining the limit of detection (LoD) of each primer and probe set in the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel. Each primer and probe set was tested with two different 2009 A(H1N1) influenza virus

6

strains. The limit of detection for each primer and probe set was calculated to indicate the range of lowest detectable concentration of influenza virus (EID50/mL) with a 95.0 percent or greater positivity. The lowest concentration of influenza virus detected was determined to be the end-point concentration where the type and subtype primer and probe sets had uniform detection. If the two end-points differ in concentration the higher (or limiting) concentration was used.

2. Inclusivity of 2009 A(H1N1) Influenza Viruses

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel analytical specificity was demonstrated by inclusivity testing. To demonstrate the specificity of the primer and probe sets to detect a diverse population of 2009 A(H1N1) influenza viruses, ten 2009 A(H1N1) influenza viruses were tested at low concentrations using the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel. The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel analytical specificity inclusivity data indicated 100% concordance with all primer and probe sets included in the device. These data indicate that the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel is highly specific for detecting 2009 A(H1N1) influenza viruses.

3. Exclusivity of Seasonal Influenza Viruses and Influenza Viruses with Pandemic Potential

Characterized seasonal influenza viruses representing various geographical locations (A/H1, A/H3, Influenza B) were tested with the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel to demonstrate the specificity of the primer and probe sets. To demonstrate the ability of the influenza A primer and probe sets to detect influenza A/H5 viruses with pandemic potential, the reactivity of the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel was tested with ten avian A/H5 influenza viruses that have been shown to infect humans. The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel demonstrates the ability to detect influenza type A viruses other than 2009 A(H1N1) viruses without a subtype as expected.

To demonstrate the ability of the influenza A primer and probe sets to detect potential pandemic influenza A viruses, the reactivity of the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel was also tested with 15 non-human influenza viruses that have been shown to infect humans. These data demonstrate 100% concordance with expected results and strongly supports the intended use claims of the device and demonstrates the performance specificity of the device.

  1. Reactivity of Non-Influenza Respiratory Viral and Bacterial Pathogens

The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel analytical specificity was further demonstrated by testing 34 non-influenza organisms (respiratory pathogens or flora) commonly present in the nasopharynx region of the human respiratory tract. The CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel analytical specificity reactivity study showed 100% concordance with the expected results for all primer and probe sets included in the device. These data indicate that the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel primer and probe sets do not cross react with biological organisms that may be present in the human nasopharynx.

5. Reproducibility

The reproducibility and precision of the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel were evaluated at six separate laboratory sites. Each testing site assessed a panel of four simulated samples at relative moderate, low (near the assay lower limit of detection range), and "high negative" viral RNA concentration, and a negative sample. The panels and assay controls were tested at each site by two operators on 5 different days within a 10-day period. Each site tested one of the six extraction methods associated with this device. Simulated samples in the qualification panel used in the reproducibility evaluation were:

Sample #1 Influenza 2009 A/H1N1 moderate viral RNA titer range Sample #2 Influenza 2009 A/H1N1 low viral RNA titer range

Sample #3 Influenza 2009 A/H1N1 "high negative" RNA titer range

Sample #4 Influenza Negative (uninfected A549 cells)

Clinical Performance

Performance characteristics of the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel were established during a prospective study at 8 U.S. public health laboratories and a Department of Defense (DoD) laboratory during the 2009-2010 respiratory virus season (February-April). Samples used for this study were collected for routine influenza testing at each site from individuals who were symptomatic with influenzalike illness (ILI) and included both upper and lower respiratory specimen types. Because of the low prevalence of influenza, retrospective specimens were used to supplement prospectively collected specimens.

The reference methods utilized in this study were virus culture with Immunofluorescent Antibody (IFA) or Direct Fluorescent Antibody (DFA) for screening and identification of influenza type and bi-directional sequencing for confirmation of 2009 influenza A (H1N1) subtype. InfA analyte results from the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel were compared to virus culture results in the analysis. Sequencing was performed only with specimens that were first identified as positive for influenza A by virus culture. Pdm InfA and pdm H1 analyte results from the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel were compared to bidirectional sequencing results in the analysis.

There were 1901 total patient specimens evaluated at the nine clinical testing sites: 1191 nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) and nasal swabs (NS), 50 throat swabs, 519 nasal washes and nasal aspirates, 99 dual NPS/TS, and 42 lower respiratory specimens.

The overall performance call rate for the CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel in the clinical evaluation at nine different sites was greater than 99%.

3. Indications for Use Statement

510(k) Number: K101564

Device Name: CDC Influenza 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Real-Time RT-PCR Panel

Intended use

The CDC Influenza 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Real-Time RT-PCR Panel (CDC rRT-PCR 2009 A(H1N1)pdm Flu Panel) is intended for use in real-time RT-PCR assays on an Applied Biosystems (ABI) 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR Instrument in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information:

  • For the qualitative detection of influenza virus type A viral RNA from . nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS), nasal swabs (NS), nasal aspirates (NA), nasal washes (NW), dual nasopharyngeal / throat swabs (NPS/TS), broncheoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW), collected from the respiratory tract of human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and/or from viral culture.
  • For differentiation of 2009 H1N1 influenza virus RNA from nasopharyngeal . swabs (NPS), nasal swabs (NS), nasal aspirates (NA), nasal washes (NW) .dual nasopharyngeal / throat swabs (NPS/TS), broncheoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW) collected from the respiratory tract of human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and/or from viral culture.
  • To provide epidemiologic information for surveillance of the 2009 H1N1 . influenza virus.

Performance characteristics for influenza A were established during the 2009-2010 influenza season when 2009 H1N1 influenza virus was the predominant influenza A virus in circulation. Performance characteristics may vary against other emerging influenza A viruses.

A neqative test result for the broncheoalveolar lavage (BAL), tracheal aspirate (TA), and bronchial wash (BW) is presumptive and it is recommended these results be confirmed by viral culture.

Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions.

If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

All users, analysts, and any person reporting results from use of this device should be trained to perform and interpret the results from this procedure by a competent instructor prior to use. CDC Influenza Division will limit the distribution of this device to only those users who have successfully completed
