Intended Use
The Focus Diagnostics Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV assay is intended for use on the 3M Integrated Cycler instrument for the in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination of influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. This test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect influenza C. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus or RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. Performance characteristics for influenza A were established during the 2010 influenza season when 2009 H1N1 influenza was the predominant influenza A virus in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. 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.
Device Description
The test is a real-time RT-PCR amplification system that utilizes a bi-functional fluorescent probe-primer for the detection and differentiation of human influenza A virus RNA, human influenza B virus RNA and respiratory syncytial virus RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS). The assay is composed of two principal steps: (1) extraction of RNA from patient specimens, (2) A bi-functional fluorescent probe-primer is used together with a reverse primer to amplify a specific target (for each analyte and the RNA internal control). The assay provides three results; conserved regions of influenza A viruses (matrix gene), influenza B viruses (matrix gene) and RSV (M gene) are targeted to identify these viruses in the specimen. An RNA internal control is used to monitor the extraction process and to detect RT-PCR inhibition. The 3M Integrated Cycler is a rapid real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction thermocycler used for the identification of nucleic acid from prepared biological samples. The instrument utilizes disk media to contain and to process samples. The instrument uses real time flourometric detection to identify targets within the sample wells. The instrument is controlled by an external computer running the Integrated Cycler Studio Software.

No
The device description and performance studies focus on standard real-time RT-PCR technology and data analysis, with no mention of AI or ML algorithms.

No.
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device intended for the qualitative detection and discrimination of specific viral RNA, which aids in differential diagnosis, rather than providing therapy or treatment.

Yes.
The device is intended for the "in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination of influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA" and "is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral infections in humans." This clearly indicates its role in diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is a real-time RT-PCR amplification system that utilizes a bi-functional fluorescent probe-primer and is used with the 3M Integrated Cycler instrument, which is a hardware device. While software (Integrated Cycler Studio Software) is used to control the instrument, the core medical device is a combination of reagents and hardware.

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 intended for "in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination" of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs. "In vitro" means "in glass" or "outside the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
  • Sample Type: The device analyzes "nasopharyngeal swabs from human patients," which are biological specimens taken from the body.
  • Purpose: The test is used as an "aid in the differential diagnosis" of viral infections, providing information about a patient's health status.
  • Device Description: The description details a "real-time RT-PCR amplification system" that analyzes RNA from patient specimens. This is a common technology used in IVD tests for detecting pathogens.
  • Performance Studies: The document includes detailed performance studies (reproducibility, limit of detection, analytical reactivity, cross-reactivity, interference, clinical agreement) which are required for regulatory approval of IVD devices.
  • Predicate Device(s): The mention of predicate devices (K numbers and names) indicates that this device is being compared to previously cleared IVDs.

All of these points strongly support the classification of this device as an In Vitro Diagnostic.

Intended Use

The Focus Diagnostics Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV assay is intended for use on the 3M Integrated Cycler instrument for the in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination of influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. This test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza B, and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect influenza C.

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

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

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.

Interference

The performance of this assay was evaluated with potentially interfering substances that may be present in nasopharyngeal swabs. The potentially interfering substances were evaluated in influenza A/Hong Kong/8/68), and influenza B (influenza B/Malaysia/2506/2004) at a concentration of 50 TCIDsdmL and RSV A2 at a concentration of 5 TCIDsJmL. There was no evidence of interference caused by the substances tested.

Inhibition by Other Microorganisms

The Simplexa™ assay was evaluated by testing the ability to identify influenza B virus, influenza B virus and RSV when potentially inhibitory organisms are present. No inhibitory effects were confirmed for influenza A, influenza B or RSV.

Clinical Agreement

Three external testing sites participated in the Clinical Agreement Study. Reference results for influenza A and influenza B viruses were generated using a high performance FDA cleared nucleic acid test (NAT). Reference results for RSV were generated using culture/DFA. Culture/DFA results were carried forward from the results obtained at the time of sample collection or banking. A total of 735 nasopharyngeal swabs specimens were obtained from a combination of prospectively collected specimens (n = 558) from patients with signs and symptoms of viral respiratory tract infection and retrospectively banked specimens with signs and symptoms of viral respiratory tract infection.

Dear Ms. Viviani:

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. Drue, 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 class II (Special Controls), 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 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); 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 advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.

Indications for Use

510(k) Number (if known): K102170

NOV 2 4 2010

Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Device Name:

Indications for Use:

The Focus Diagnostics Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV assay is intended for use on the 3M Integrated Cycler instrument for the in vitro qualitative detection and discrimination of influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. This test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect influenza C.

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

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

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.
