Intended Use

The FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) is a multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with the FilmArray instrument for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections. The following virus types and subtypes are identified using the FilmArray RP: Adenovirus, Coronavirus HKU1, Coronavirus NL63, Human Metapneumovirus, Influenza A, Influenza A subtype H1, Influenza A subtype H3, Influenza A subtype 2009 H1, Influenza B, Parainfluenza virus 3, Rhinovirus/Enterovirus, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus. The detection and identification of specific viral nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of a respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information. Negative results do not preclude respiratory infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other organisms. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. The use of additional laboratory testing (e.g. bacterial and viral culture, immunofluorescence, and radiography) and clinical presentation must be taken into consideration in order to obtain the final diagnosis of respiratory infection.

Due to seasonal prevalence, performance characteristics for Influenza A/H1, Influenza A/H3, Influenza A/2009 H1, and Influenza B were established primarily with retrospective clinical specimens.

Due to the genetic similarity between human Rhinovirus and Enterovirus, the FilmArray RP cannot reliably differentiate them. A positive FilmArray RP Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result should be followed-up using an alternate method (e.g. cell culture or sequence analysis).

The FilmArray RP detects Adenovirus species C serotype 6 with reduced sensitivity. It is recommended that specimens found to be negative for Adenovirus after examination using FilmArray RP be confirmed by an alternate method (e.g. FDA cleared molecular test or cell culture).

Performance characteristics for influenza A were established when influenza A/2009 H1N1, A/H1, and A/H3 were the predominant influenza A viruses 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 departments 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 FilmArray RP System is multiplex nucleic acid test system composed of the FilmArray instrument, the FilmArray software (preinstalled on a laptop computer) and the FilmArray RP pouch. The FilmArray RP pouch contains freeze-dried reagents to perform nucleic acid purification, reverse transcription, and nested, multiplex PCR with DNA melt analysis. The Respiratory Panel (RP) pouch identifies 12 common and emerging viral respiratory pathogens (see Table 1).

A test is initiated by loading Hydration Solution and an unprocessed patient nasopharyngeal swab (NPS) specimen (i.e. specimen mixed with Sample Buffer) into the FilmArray RP pouch. The pouch contains all of the reagents required for specimen testing and analysis in a freeze-dried format; the addition of Hydration Solution and Sample/Buffer Mix rehydrates the reagents. After the pouch is prepared, the FilmArrav software guides the user though the steps of placing the pouch into the instrument, scanning the pouch barcode, entering the sample identification and initiating the run.

The FilmArray instrument contains a coordinated system of inflatable bladders and seal points, which act on the pouch to control the movement of liquid between the pouch blisters. When a bladder is inflated over a reagent blister, it forces liquid from the blister into connecting channels. Alternatively, when a seal is placed over a connecting channel it acts as a valve to open or close a channel. In addition, electronically controlled pneumatic pistons are positioned over multiple plungers in order to deliver the rehydrated reagents into the blisters at the appropriate times. Two Peltier devices control heating and cooling of the pouch to drive the reverse transcription reactions, the PCR reactions, and the melting curve analysis.

Nucleic acid extraction occurs within the FilmArray pouch using mechanical lysis and standard magnetic bead technology. After extracting and purifying nucleic acids from the unprocessed sample, the FilmArray performs a nested multiplex PCR that is executed in two stages. During the first stage, the FilmArray performs a single, large volume, highly multiplexed reverse transcription PCR (rt-PCR) reaction. The products from first stage PCR are then diluted and combined with a fresh, primer-free master mix and a fluorescent double stranded DNA binding dye (LC Green@Plus, Idaho Technology). This second master mix solution, is then distributed to each well of the array. Array wells contain sets of primers designed specifically to amplify sequences internal to the PCR products generated during the first stage PCR reaction. The second stage PCR, or nested PCR, is performed in singleplex fashion in each well of the array. At the conclusion of the 200 stage PCR, the array is interrogated by melting curve analysis for the detection of signature amplicons denoting the presence of specific viral or bacterial targets A digital camera placed in front of the second stage PCR captures fluorescent images of the PCR reactions in real time.

The FilmArray software automatically interprets the results of each DNA melting curve analysis and combines the data with the results of the internal pouch controls to provide a test result for each organism on the panel.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the provided text, focusing on acceptance criteria and supporting study details:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state pre-defined "acceptance criteria" in a numerical target for metrics like sensitivity or specificity. However, it presents the reported clinical sensitivity (Positive Percent Agreement - PPA) and specificity (Negative Percent Agreement - NPA) for each detected organism from two studies: a prospective clinical study and an archived specimen study. The implicit acceptance criteria would be for these values to be high, ideally close to 100%, and for the 95% Confidence Intervals (CI) to be acceptably narrow.

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance

  • Test Set (Clinical Performance):
    • Prospective Clinical Study:
      • Sample Size: 853 subjects (from an initial enrollment of 857).
      • Data Provenance: 3 U.S. clinical sites, prospective data collected from December 2009 through May 2010.
    • Archived Specimen Study:
      • Sample Size: 349 archived clinical NPS specimens were confirmed to contain or lack the analyte of interest (from 400 initially selected).
      • Data Provenance: Retrospective, preselected archived clinical NPS specimens. Age demographics provided (e.g., 89 (25.5%) ≤5 years, 188 (53.9%) unknown age from a pediatric hospital). Country of origin is implied to be U.S. from clinical sites and some strains are from particular US states, but not explicitly stated for all archived samples.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth (Test Set)

The document primarily relies on comparator methods for establishing ground truth, rather than a direct count of human expert consensus.

  • For Adenovirus, Influenza A, Influenza B, Parainfluenza virus 3, Respiratory Syncytial Virus (Prospective Study):
    • Ground Truth Method: Viral culture followed by DFA (Fluorescent Antibody) identification. "True" positives/negatives were defined based on these comparator methods.
  • For FluA/H1, FluA/H3, FluA/2009 H1 (Prospective Study):
    • Ground Truth Method: Viral culture followed by one analytically validated PCR assay with bi-directional sequence confirmation. The comparator PCR assays were designed to amplify different sequences than the FilmArray assays. "True" positives/negatives were based on cultural positivity for Influenza A and bi-directional sequencing results matching NCBI GenBank entries.
  • For Human Rhinovirus, Coronavirus NL63, Coronavirus HKU1, Human Metapneumovirus (Prospective Study):
    • Ground Truth Method: A "predetermined algorithm that used composite comparator methods" consisting of two analytically validated PCR assays followed by bi-directional sequencing. "True" positives/negatives were based on bi-directional sequencing data matching NCBI GenBank entries or negative results from both comparator PCR assays.
  • For Archived Specimen Study:
    • Ground Truth Method: Analyte-specific PCR and bi-directional sequencing were used to confirm the presence or absence of the analyte of interest in each specimen prior to FilmArray RP testing.

The document does not specify the number of experts or their qualifications for interpreting the DFA, viral culture, PCR, or sequencing results. It states these are "analytically validated" assays, implying expert input in their validation and interpretation, but provides no direct detail on the human experts involved in establishing the ground truth for this specific study.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document describes comparator methods for defining "true" positive/negative results. For the clinical performance sections:

  • For categories like Adenovirus through RSV in the prospective study, ground truth was set by viral culture + DFA. Discrepancies between FilmArray RP and the comparator method were further investigated (e.g., footnoted retesting and bi-directional sequence analysis for false positives/negatives). For example, "Adenoviruses were identified in 13/14 false positive specimens using bi-directional sequence analysis." This implies adjudication by molecular methods (PCR and sequencing) was used to resolve discrepancies or to further confirm findings where FilmArray differed from the initial comparator method.
  • For Influenza A subtypes and other viruses (Rhinovirus, etc.), the ground truth was already a composite of PCR and bi-directional sequencing, suggesting internal resolution of complex cases within that ground truth establishment process.

The "archived specimen study" explicitly states that the presence or absence of the analyte was confirmed using analyte-specific PCR and bi-directional sequencing prior to FilmArray RP testing, which serves as a highly robust ground truth.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

No. The study is a diagnostic performance evaluation comparing the device (FilmArray RP) against established laboratory methods (viral culture, PCR, sequencing) for detecting respiratory pathogens. It does not involve human readers interpreting results with or without AI assistance, or quantify the effect size of human improvement. This is a standalone diagnostic test evaluation.

6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only)

Yes, the clinical performance studies (prospective and archived specimen) describe the standalone performance of the FilmArray RP system. The device is automated with "automated test interpretation and report generation" where the "User cannot access raw data" (Table 3), indicating the algorithm's interpretation delivers the final result.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used is a combination of:

  • Expert Consensus/Reference Methods (Viral Culture + DFA, PCR + Bi-directional Sequencing): This reflects standard laboratory diagnostic methods considered to be gold standards or highly accurate comparators at the time.
    • "True" positives/negatives were determined by these reference methods.
    • For discrepancies, especially for "false positives" or "false negatives" where the FilmArray RP result differed from the initial comparator, further molecular analysis (bi-directional sequence analysis) was often performed, indicating a robust process to confirm ground truth when needed.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document explicitly describes studies for clinical performance evaluation and analytical validation (LoD, inclusivity, specificity, precision, interference). It does not provide details on a specific "training set" or its size, as would be typical for machine learning models. This suggests that the FilmArray RP system's interpretive algorithm (which automatically interprets melting curve analysis results) was developed and validated internally using methods not detailed in this summary (e.g., extensive analytical testing, algorithm tuning, and potentially internal datasets before these formal clinical studies). The "analytical studies" sections (LoD, inclusivity, etc.) would contribute to refining and confirming the algorithm's performance.

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

Since a "training set" is not explicitly defined or detailed in this summary, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not provided. However, based on the analytical studies described:

  • LoD (Limit of Detection): Established by testing limiting dilutions of live, quantified viruses (or clinical specimens in one case) where the presence and concentration are precisely known.
  • Analytical Reactivity (Inclusivity): Evaluated using known strains/isolates, often quantified. Bi-directional sequencing and bioinformatics (in silico analyses) were used to confirm specific viral identities and predict reactivity.
  • Analytical Specificity (Cross-reactivity and Exclusivity): Tested against high concentrations of known interfering organisms or substances.

These analytical studies established ground truth for known viral identities and concentrations under controlled conditions, which would underpin the fundamental ability of the algorithm to accurately detect and identify targets. While not a "training set" in the modern ML sense, these analytical validations serve a similar purpose in confirming the algorithm's foundational accuracy against known truths.

Summary of Performance Data

Clinical Performance

The clinical performance of the FilmArray RP system was established during a prospective study at 3 U.S. clinical sites over a 6 month time period (December 2009 through May 2010). Subjects with signs and/or symptoms of respiratory infection were invited to participate. Upon obtaining informed consent, NPS samples were collected for FilmArray and comparator testing; a second respiratory sample was collected from each subject for viral culture reference testing. A total of 857 subjects were initially enrolled in the study and four were withdrawn. Table 4, provides a summary of demographic information for the 853 subjects that participated in the prospective study.

Table 5. Reference/Comparator Methods Used to Assess FilmArray RP Performance

1 Performance of the FilmArray RP system detecting Adenovirus, Flu A. Flu B. PIV3, or RSV. respectively, was compared to viral culture followed by fluorescent antibody identification. "True" Adenovirus, Influenza B, Parainfluenza virus 3, or RSV positively, were considered as any sample that tested positive for Adenovirus, Influenza A, Influenza B, Parainfluenza virus 3, or RSV, respectively, by viral culture followed by DFA testing. "True" Adenovirus, Influenza A. Influenza virus 3, or RSV negatives, respectively, were considered as any sample that tested negative for Adenovirus. Influenza B. Parainfluenza virus 3, or RSV. respectively, by viral culture followed by DFA testing.

2 Performance of the FilmArray RP system detecting Influenza A/H1, A/H3, or A/2009 H1, respectively, was compared to viral culture followed by one analytically validated PCR assay with bi-directional sequence confirmation. The comparator assays were designed to amplify a different sequence from that amplified by the FilmArray assay(s). None of the comparator PCR assays overlapped any FilmArray amplicon sequence even if the same gene was targeted. "True" Influenza A/H1, A/H3, or A/2009 H1 positively, were considered as any sample that tested positive for Influenza A by viral culture, and had bi-directional sequencing pre-defined quality acceptance criteria that matched Influenza A/H1, A/H3, or A/2009 H1 sequences deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank database (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), respectively, with acceptable E-values. "True" Influenza A/H1, A/H3, or A/2009 H1 negatively, were considered as any sample that tested negative for Influenza A by viral culture, or any sample that tested positive for Influenza A virus by viral culture, but tested negative by the respective Influenza A subtype specific PCR assay.

3 Performance of the FilmArray RP system detecting Human Rhinovirus, Coronavirus NL63, Coronavirus HKU1. or Human Metapneumovirus, respectively, was compared to a predetermined algorithm that used composite comparator methods. The methods consist of two analytically validated PCR assays followed by bi-directional sequencing. The comparator assays were designed to amplify a different sequence from that amplified by the FilmArray assay(s). None of the comparator PCR assays overlapped any FilmArray amplicon sequence even if the same gene was targeted. "True" Human Rhinovirus, Enterovirus NL63, Coronavirus HKU1, or Human Metapneumovirus positives, respectively, were considered as any sample that had bi-directional sequencing data meeting pre-defined quality acceptance criteria that matched Human Rhinovirus, Coronavirus NL63, Coronavirus HKUI, or Human Metapneumovirus sequences deposited in the National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) GenBank database (www.ncbi.nlm,nih.gov), respectively, with acceptable E-values. "True" Human Rhinovirus, Enterovirus, Coronavirus NL63, Coronavirus HKU1, or Human Metapneumovirus negatives, respectively, were considered as any sample that tested negative by both of the comparator PCR assays.

A total of 853 specimens were evaluated in this study. Clinical sensitivity or positive percent agreement (PPA) was calculated as 100% x (TP / TP + FN). True positive (TP) indicates that both the FilmArray RP and comparator method had a positive result for this specific analyte and false negative (FN) indicates that the FilmArray result was negative while the comparator result was positive. Specificity was calculated as 100% x (TN / TN + FP). True negative (TN) indicates that both the FilmArray RP and the comparator method had negative results and a false positive (FP) indicates that the FilmArray RP result was positive but the comparator results was negative. The exact binomial two-sided 95% confidence interval was calculated. The results are summarized in Table 6.

4 The FilmArty RP system detected Adenovirus in 1/3 false negative specimens when retested. The Adenovirus in the retested specimen was identified as species C by bi-directional sequence analysis. The remaining two false negative specimens were identified as species C and species B.

8 Adenoviruses were identified in 13/14 false positive specimens using bi-directional sequence analysis. Ten were identified as species C, two as species B, and one as species E.

CoV-HKUI viruses were identified in 2/2 false positive specimens using bi-directional sequence analysis with an alternate assav.

4 Influenza A viruses (2009 H1 subtype) were identified in 3/3 false positive specimens (2/2 false positive compared to influenza A culture alone) using sequence analysis with an alternate assay.

& The FilmArray RP system detected PIV3 in the single false negative specimen when retested.

1 PIV3 viruses were identified in 10/10 false positive specimens using bi-directional sequence analysis.

8 RSV viruses were identified in 83/87 false positive specimens using bi-directional sequence analysis.

{7}------------------------------------------------

The FilmArray RP system detected a total of 81 mixed infections in the prospective clinical evaluation. This represents 16.1% of the total positive specimens (81/502). Seventy-six (76/81; 93.8%) were double infections, and 5 (5/81; 6.2%) were triple infections. The total number of test results comprising these co-infections was 167. The single most common co-infection (21/81; 25.9%) was Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus with Respiratory Syncytial Virus. These viruses were the most prevalent in the tested population. Out of the 81 co-infections, 47 contained one or more analytes that had not been detected with the reference/comparator methods, i.e. discrepant co-infection.

Table 8. Prevalence and Age Distribution of Analytes in the Clinical Study

Several analytes, such as influenza viruses were either not encountered in the clinical study or had a low prevalence. To supplement the results of the prospective clinical study, an evaluation of preselected archived samples was performed.

Testing of Preselected Archived Specimens

In addition to the prospective clinical study, archived clinical NPS specimens were also tested using the FilmArray RP. The specimens were selected because they had previously tested positive for one of the following organisms: Adenovirus, Enterovirus, Influenzas A/H1, 2009 H1N1, and H3, Influenza B, and Parainfluenza Virus 3, or had been negative by previous testing methods. Prior to testing with the FilmArray RP, the presence or absence of the analyte of interest was confirmed in each specimen using analyte specific PCR and bi-directional sequencing. Of 400 specimens, 349 were confirmed to contain the analyte of interest (or lack thereof for negative specimens). The specimens were organized into "test panels" and randomized such that the users testing the samples with the FilmArray RP were blinded as to the expected test result. Each panel contained specimens known to be positive and negative for the specific analyte being evaluated allowing the calculation of a positive percent agreement (PPA) and a negative percent agreement (NPA). A summary of the available demographic information of the tested samples is provided in Table 9 and the results of the FilmArray testing are presented in Table 10.

Selected Analytic Studies

Limit of Detection

The analytical sensitivity or Limit of Detection (LoD) for each FilmArray RP analyte (except for Coronavirus HKU1) was determined by testing limiting dilutions of live, quantified viruses. The LoD for Coronavirus HKU1 was determined by testing limiting dilutions of a clinical specimen containing a high viral load of Coronavirus HKU1. LoD is defined as the lowest concentration at which the analyte is consistently detected (detection in ≥95% of samples tested). Simulated NPS sample matrix (cultured human cells in VTM) was spiked with one or more analytes and at least 20 replicates were tested at the LoD concentration. The LoD for each FilmArray RP analyte is listed in Table 11.

Table 11. LoD for Analytes Detected by FilmArray RP

" Coronavirus HKU1 was quantified by a non-FilmArray real-time PCR assay against a standard curve of synthetic Coronavirus HKUI RNA transcript to obtain quantification of the viral nucleic acid in the clinical specimen (RNA copies/mL).

NOTE: Most analytes were re-grown and quantified in TCID-s(50% Tissue Culture Infectious Dose). The unit TCID-so is a measure of infectivity or cytotoxicity rather than number of organisms or copies of nucleic acid. Variability in TCIDs/mL may not accurately reflect differences in the relative of detection between different organisms or different strains of the same organism.

{11}------------------------------------------------

Analytical Reactivity (Inclusivity)

The analytical reactivity of the FilmArray RP system assays was evaluated with an inclusivity panel consisting of 99 strains or isolates that represent the genetic, temporal. and geographic diversity of the FilmArray RP analytes. The tested organisms include: 17 Adenovirus, 4 Coronavirus (3 HKU1 and 1 NL63), 10 human Metapneumovirus, 12 Enterovirus, 14 Rhinovirus, 22 Influenza A (including 10 Influenza A/H1, 3 Influenza A/2009 H1 and 9 Influenza A/H3), 11 Influenza B, 3 Parainfluenza virus 3 and 6 Respiratory Syncytial Virus. Each organism was initially tested in a simulated NPS sample matrix at or near the system LoD. Higher concentrations were tested if the analyte was not detected at LoD.

Each of the 99 strains tested in this study were reactive with the FilmArray RP system. Reactivity of the FilmArray RP system with Adenovirus C serotype 6 was 10.000-fold less than the system LoD due to sequence variation in the region targeted by the FilmArray RP Adenovirus assay.

Additional clinical data analyses, and in silico analyses were also carried out to supplement the testing of the inclusivity panel.

Results from inclusivity testing are presented below. The concentration and multiple of LoD at which each strain was detected by the FilmArray RP system is indicated.

*Due to sequence variation, the FilmArray RP Adenovirus assay reacts with adenovirus serotype 6 (species C) less efficiently than with other adenovirus serotypes.

Supplemental Adenovirus Reactivity Information (Clinical Data and in silico analyses):

A subset of prospective and retrospective archived clinical specimens that were FilmArray positive for Adenovirus was subjected to PCR and bi-directional sequence analysis. BLAST analysis of the sequence data obtained for a region of the Adenovirus polymerase gene identified adenovirus species B (serotypes 3, 3+11p, 7, 16 and 21), species C (serotypes 1, 2, and 5), and species E (serotype 4) in these clinical specimens. Species B, C and E are the most common Adenovirus species associated with respiratory illness. Species A, D, and F (often associated with conjunctivitis and gastroenteritis) were not identified in clinical specimens.

In addition to laboratory testing, bioinformatics resources were also used to predict reactivity of additional Adenovirus species and serotypes with the FilmArray RP System. Simulated reactivity was based on the number and location of mismatches between the target sequence and the assay primer(s). Table 13 lists the adenovirus types that were not tested by the FilmArray system either in analytical testing. Based on the bioinformatics analysis, the FilmArray RP system is predicted to react with all of the indicated Adenovirus species and serotypes.

Supplemental Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus Reactivity Information

(clinical data and in silico analyses):

In addition to the analytical inclusivity testing, BLAST analysis was performed on sequence data (5' UTR) obtained from prospective and retrospective archived clinical specimens that were FilmArray positive for Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus. The following species and subtypes were identified in clinical specimens:

Enterovirus Species A:Enterovirus serotype 71Coxsackievirus A2 and A6
Enterovirus Species B:Echovirus serotypes 3, 6, 7, 11, 15, 21 and 30Coxsackievirus B1, B3 and A9Enterovirus serotypes 81 and 88
Rhinovirus Species A:Human Rhinovirus serotypes 1B, 8, 9,10, 13, 19, 21, 22, 23,28, 30, 32, 34, 38, 39, 40, 46, 47, 49, 51, 54, 56, 58, 59, 61, 62,66, 68, 75, 77, 78, 80, 82, 98 and 100
Rhinovirus Species B:Human Rhinovirus serotypes 27, 69, 83 and 91
Rhinovirus Species C:at least 3 individual strains and 12 distinct isolates

ªHuman Rhinovirus species C (also known as Enterovirus species D) has not been classified into serotypes.

{16}------------------------------------------------

Enterovirus species C includes Poliovirus types 1-3 (PV1, PV2, and PV3). Simulated reactivity of the FilmArray RP Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus assays with Enterovirus Species C Poliovirus sequences was generated using a bioinformatics approach. Alignment of assay primer sequences with the GenBank sequences indicates the FilmArray RP assay will react with Poliovirus types 1, 2 and 3, giving a Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result.

The potential for the FilmArray RP system to cross-react with non-FilmArray RP organisms was evaluated by testing an exclusivity panel consisting of 45 bacteria, 13 viruses, and 1 fungus. These organisms were selected based on their relatedness to FilmArray RP analytes, clinical relevance (cause respiratory symptoms or represent nasopharyngeal flora), or high prevalence within the population (e.g. Herpes Simplex Virus). Negative sample matrix was spiked with bacteria or fungi at a concentration of 106 CFU/mL and viruses at a concentration between 104 - 105 TCID50/mL, or the highest concentration possible. The FilmArray RP system did not cross-react with the exclusivity panel organisms listed in Table 25. One measles virus strain was found to contain Adenovirus, which was detected by the FilmArray RP.

Precision (Reproducibility)

A multicenter reproducibility study was performed to determine between-site and overall reproducibility of the FilmArray RP system.

Reproducibility testing occurred at three test sites utilizing a panel of twelve simulated NPS specimens spiked with various combinations of live respiratory pathogens (analytes) at three different test levels (high negative (LoD/10), low positive (1X LoD), and medium positive (3X LoD)). On each testing day, two operators at each site tested two aliquots of specimens on two different FilmArray instruments (six specimens per operator per instrument per day). Every specimen was tested four times a day on five days at the three testing sites. for a total of 60 tests per analyte per concentration. A total of 26 lots of reagents and 20 FilmArray instruments were utilized in the reproducibility study. Summary results for each analyte are summarized below.

Precision (Repeatability)

The repeatability of the FilmArray RP System results was evaluated by repeated testing of the same 12 specimens tested in the reproducibility study while minimizing as many sources of variability as possible. The in-house repeatabilty testing was performed at Site C over the course of 12 testing days for a total of 48 test results per specimen. On each day, all 12 specimens were tested 4 times by two operators on two FilmArray instruments.

Interference

Substances that could be present in NPS samples or introduced during sample handling were evaluated for their potential to interfere with assay performance. Four different organism mixes containing FilmArray RP analytes were spiked into a simulated NPS (sNPS) sample matrix (human epithelial cells in VTM) at 5 x their respective LoDs. The 5x LoD organism concentration was chosen to be near the analyte LoD but also to provide consistent results for sample-to-sample comparison. Each FilmArray RP analyte was tested in the presence of each potentially interfering substance listed in Table . None of the substances tested were found to compete or interfere with the control or analyte assays in the FilmArray RP.

Evaluation of the FilmArray RP system was not performed using clinical NPS specimens obtained from individuals who had recently received the FluMist® nasal influenza vaccine (MedImmune). However, analytical testing was performed with simulated samples containing various concentrations of the 2009-2010 formulation of the vaccine material. The FilmArray RP assays react with the Influenza A H1, Influenza A H3 and Influenza B viral material contained in the vaccine (Table 29). No cross-reactivity was observed with other, non-influenza FilmArray RP assays.

Indications for Use

510(k) Number: K103175 Device Name: FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) System

Indications for Use:

The FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) is a multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with the FilmArray instrument for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections. The following virus types and subtypes are identified using the FilmArray RP: Adenovirus, Coronavirus HKU1, Coronavirus NL63, Human Metapneumovirus, Influenza A, Influenza A subtype H1, Influenza A subtype H3, Influenza A subtype 2009 H1, Influenza B, Parainfluenza virus 3, Rhinovirus/Enterovirus, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus. The detection and identification of specific viral nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of a respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information. Negative results do not preclude respiratory infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other organisms. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease. The use of additional laboratory testing (e.g. bacterial and viral culture, immunofluorescence, and radiography) and clinical presentation must be taken into consideration in order to obtain the final diagnosis of respiratory infection.

Due to seasonal prevalence, performance characteristics for Influenza A/H1, Influenza A/H3, Influenza A/2009 H1, and Influenza B were established primarily with retrospective clinical specimens.

Due to the genetic similarity between human Rhinovirus and Enterovirus, the FilmArray RP cannot reliably differentiate them. A positive FilmArray RP Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result should be followed-up using an alternate method (e.g. cell culture or sequence analysis).

The FilmArray RP detects Adenovirus species C serotype 6 with reduced sensitivity. It is recommended that specimens found to be negative for Adenovirus after examination using FilmArray RP be confirmed by an alternate method (e.g. FDA cleared molecular test or cell culture).

Performance characteristics for influenza A were established when influenza A/2009 H1N1, A/H1, and A/H3 were the predominant influenza A viruses 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 departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

§ 866.3980 Respiratory viral panel multiplex nucleic acid assay.

(a)
Identification. A respiratory viral panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple viral nucleic acids extracted from human respiratory specimens or viral culture. The detection and identification of a specific viral nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory viral infection when used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. The device is intended for detection and identification of a combination of the following viruses:(1) Influenza A and Influenza B;
(2) Influenza A subtype H1 and Influenza A subtype H3;
(3) Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype B;
(4) Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, and Parainfluenza 3 virus;
(5) Human Metapneumovirus;
(6) Rhinovirus; and
(7) Adenovirus.
(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls are:(1) FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Respiratory Viral Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay;”
(2) For a device that detects and identifies Human Metapneumovirus, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) Using Nucleic Acid Assays;” and
(3) For a device that detects and differentiates Influenza A subtype H1 and subtype H3, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Detection and Differentiation of Influenza A Virus Subtypes Using Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assays.” See § 866.1(e) for the availability of these guidance documents.
