Intended Use
The Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) ELISA IgG test kit is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to H. pylori in human serum in the adult population. This test is intended to aid in the diagnosis of H. pylori in patients suspected of having H. pylori infection, and in patients with gastrointestinal symptoms, and is to be used in conjunction with clinical findings.
Device Description
The assay requires a total of 90 minutes incubation time. The test uses purified antigen coated on microtiter wells. Serum is added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. If H. pylori IgG antibodies are present they will bind to the antigen in the well. Unbound serum is removed by washing the wells three times. An HRP-conjugated anti-human IgG is then added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at 37℃. If H. pylori antibody is present, it will bind to the antibody attached to the antigen on the wells are again washed three times to remove any unbound coniugate. A TMB substrate is added to each well and incubated for 30 minutes at 37°C. If enzyme is present, it will react with the substrate to generate a colored product. After the incubation period, the reaction is stopped with a Stop Solution and the color intensity is measured spectrophotometrically.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description details a standard ELISA assay, which is a biochemical test. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or any computational analysis that would suggest the use of these technologies. The performance studies focus on traditional analytical and clinical validation metrics for an immunoassay.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic test intended to aid in the diagnosis of H. pylori infection by detecting antibodies, not to treat the condition.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that the test "is intended to aid in the diagnosis of H. pylori infection."

No

The device description clearly outlines a laboratory-based immunoassay kit involving physical reagents, incubation steps, washing, and spectrophotometric measurement, indicating it is a hardware-based diagnostic test kit, not software only.

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 IgG antibodies to H. pylori in human serum." This involves testing a biological sample (human serum) outside of the body to gain information about a patient's health status (presence of H. pylori infection).
  • Device Description: The description details a laboratory-based assay using microtiter wells, reagents (serum, HRP-conjugated anti-human IgG, TMB substrate, Stop Solution), and a spectrophotometer to measure the results. This is a typical setup for an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Clinical Comparison: The performance studies involve a "Clinical Comparison" using patient samples and comparing the results to other commercially available ELISA assays. This is a standard practice for evaluating the performance of IVD devices.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" (K973508; Micro Detect, Inc. Pylori Detect IgG ELISA) is a strong indicator that this device is being submitted for regulatory review as an IVD, as predicate devices are used for demonstrating substantial equivalence to legally marketed IVDs.

All of these elements 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)

Nonclinical tests:
The intra and inter assay precision was calculated by running six patient sera (four positives and two negatives) at three different sites.
Reproducibility: The reproducibility of the assay was done by testing three samples in triplicate (a high negative, low positive and a moderate positive) for five days, twice a day, at three sites with two technicians per site.
Cross Reactivity: An adsorption study was performed to evaluate any cross reactivity. Sera with different levels of antibodies to H. pylori were adsorbed with either H. pylori, Candida albicans, E. coli, Borrelia burgdorferi, Clostridium' spp., Campylobacter, Bacillus, Enterobacter, Pseudomonas, Haemophilus Influenza, and Proteus. The identity of the bacteria used were identified by the ATCC and confirmed with the MALDI-TOF method. The bacteria were evaluated at a concentration of 10' cfu/ml or higher. The mean percent inhibition for H. pylori was 96%, and 1.8% to 9.5% with the other organisms. There seems to be a weak cross reactivity with Bacillus Cereus.
Interfering Substance: The effect of potential interfering substances on samples using the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay was evaluated. High levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin, cholesterol and triglycerides in serum samples were tested at the assay cutoff (9-11 units) in triplicate. The recommended concentrations from the guideline "Interference Testing InClinical Chemistry" from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute were used. The tested substances did not affect the performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay. Leukocytes, intestinal secretions or mucus, fat, and medications used to relieve diarrhea or other gastric symptoms were not tested.

Clinical Comparison: The performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA 1gG assay was determined by conducting a correlation study using 625 samples being routinely tested for H. The samples were tested on both the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay and a commercially available ELISA assay (Micro Detect Inc. K973508) as the predicate device.

Cross Reactivity:

An adsorption study was performed to evaluate any cross reactivity. Briefly, sera with different levels of antibodies to H. pylori were adsorbed with either H. pylori, Candida albicans, E. coli, Borrelia burgdorferi, Clostridium' spp., Campylobacter, Bacillus, Enterobacter, Pseudomonas, Haemophilus Influenza, and Proteus. The identity of the bacteria used were identified by the ATCC and confirmed with the MALDI-TOF method. The bacteria were evaluated at a concentration of 10' cfu/ml or higher.

Sera with different levels of antibodies to H. pylori, were adsorbed with the recommended organisms. The adsorbed samples were compared to the untreated samples and the mean percent inhibition was calculated. The results are summarized in the following table:

| Organism | Concentration (cfu/ml) | Mean percent
inhibition |
|-----------------------|------------------------|----------------------------|
| Helicobacter pylori | | 96% |
| Candida albicans | 2.40x107 | 1.8% |
| Escherichia coli | 6.90x107 | 9.5% |
| Borrelia burgdorferi | 1.00x108 | 5.5% |
| Clostridium spp. | 1.20x107 | 6.0% |
| Campylobacter | 1.50x109 | 4.7% |
| Bacillus Cereus | 4.40x107 | 18.2% |
| Enterobacter | 1.80x108 | 2.1% |
| Pseudomonas | 1.45x108 | 5.1% |
| Haemophilus Influenza | 7.90x107 | 3.8% |
| Proteus | 1.40x108 | 4.6% |

The mean percent inhibition for H. pylori was 96%, and 1.8% to 9.5% with the other organisms. There seems to be a weak cross reactivity with Bacillus Cereus. Taking into account the normal test variation, the remaining cross reactivity with Bacillus Cereus may affect high negative samples close to the equivocal range. Overall no effects on the analytical specificity were seen on the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay.

Interfering Substance

The effect of potential interfering substances on samples using the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay was evaluated. High levels of hemoglobin, bilirubin, cholesterol and triglycerides in serum samples were tested at the assay cutoff (9-11 units) in triplicate. The recommended concentrations from the guideline "Interference Testing InClinical Chemistry" from the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute were used (see table below). The tested substances did not affect the performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay.

| Substance | Concentration | H. pylori
concentration
n | Mean Percent
Inhibition |
|--------------|---------------|-----------------------------------------------|----------------------------|
| Hemoglobin | 2 g/L | 9-11 units | 3% |
| Bilirubin | 342 μmol/L | 9-11 units | 11% |
| Cholesterol | 13 mmol/L | 9-11 units | 1% |
| Triglyceride | 37 mmol/L | 9-11 units | -19% |

Leukocytes, intestinal secretions or mucus, fat, and medications used to relieve diarrhea or other gastric symptoms were not tested, therefore, it is not known if these substances will interfere with the assay as they were not evaluated.

6(b2): Clinical Comparison:

The performance of the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA 1gG assay was determined by conducting a correlation study using 625 samples being routinely tested for H. The samples were tested on both the Gold Standard Diagnostics H. pylori ELISA IgG assay and a commercially available ELISA assay (Micro Detect Inc. K973508) as the predicate device. The results are summarized in the following table:

Micro Detect IgG ELISA
PositiveEquivocalNegative
Gold StandardPositive203313
Diagnostics IgGEquivocal528
ELISANegative115375
Total21910396

The discrepant samples were further tested on a third assay, the DiaMedix H. pylori IgG assay (which is also commercially available). Of the 11 Gold Standard Diagnostics negative samples, Micro Detect Inc. positive samples, the third assay called nine samples positive and two samples negative. Of the 13 Gold Standard Diagnostics positive samples, Micro Detect Inc. negative samples, the third assay called one sample borderline, two negative, and ten samples positive. The comparison data produced the following:

  • % Positive Agreement = 92.7% (203/219) with 95% CI: 88.5% to 95.5%;
  • % Negative Agreement = 94.7% (375/396) with 95% CI: 92.0% to 96.5%
  • % Equivocal Agreement = 20% (2/10) with 95% CI: 5.7% to 51.0%

Overall Agreement = 92.8% (580/625)

6(b3) Conclusion:

6

From the data and comparison above, it is our contention that the Gold Standard Diagnostic H. pylori IgG ELISA test is substantially equivalent to the commercially marketed Micro Detect, Inc. Pylori Detect IgG kit. . . . . . . . .
