A Reproducibility Study was performed across lot, testing site, operator, run, and day for the cobas 8 CTNG Test using 2 panels prepared from swabs and urine collected in cobas PCR Media. A run for cobas® PCR Media (urine or swab) included 3 replicates of each of 5 panel members and 1 positive and 1 negative control (17 total tests). If cobas PCR Media panels were combined in a run, only 1 positive and 1 negative control were included (32 total tests). The 2 operators at each site performed 2 runs per day, for a total of 3 days of testing per operator per panel type (6 days of testing total for each panel type and reagent lot). Testing was performed with 2 reagent lots (6 days of testing per lot).

Overall. 74 runs were performed. and 72 valid runs were obtained for urine and swab panel types. The 2 invalid runs were due to instrument errors. A total of 1,080 tests were performed on the 5 panel members for each panel type in the valid runs. There was 1 invalid test result in the urine panel type, and 2 invalid test results in the swab panel type. These invalid tests were due to instrument errors.

All valid test results were included in the analyses that reported the percent agreement for CT and NG for each panel type separately. There were no false positive results for either analyte (CT and NG) for both panel types for negative panel members, thus giving negative percent agreement (NPA) of 100% for each analyte.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The analytical sensitivity (Limit of Detection or LOD) for the cobas® CT/NG Test was determined by analyzing dilutions of quantified CT and NG cultures of CT and NG were diluted into negative vaginal swab specimen in cobas® PCR Media and negative urine specimen plus cobas® PCR Media to determine the LOD for vaginal swab and urine specimens, respectively. All levels were analyzed using the full cobas® CT/NG Test workflow across 3 unique lots of cobas® CT/NG Test reagents. This test defines LOD as the target concentration which can be detected as positive in ≥ 95% of the replicates tested with each reagent lot.

The sensitivity of the cobas CT/NG Test was determined for 14 additional CT serovars, the Swedish new variant (nvCT) strain and an additional 44 independently isolated strains of NG. Testing was done to demonstrate that these targets can be detected around the LOD levels determined during analytical sensitivity testing for the CT serovar D culture and NG strain 19424. Panels were prepared as described for the LOD study with the number of panel levels varying from 1 to 5, as required. At least 49 replicates were tested for each panel level using one lot of cobas CT/NG Test reagents.

Competitive inhibition testing: Panels were prepared by spiking CT and NG cultures into urine and vaginal specimens stabilized in cobas® PCR Media to various concentration levels to examine the potential for competitive inhibition. Panels were prepared with two strains each of CT and NG. Panels were tested in one run per day over the course of 5 days. Two replicates of each panel member were tested in every run, generating a maximum of 10 test results for each level and CT and NG strain respectively. All CT and NG hit rates were 100% for all panel levels in both matrices. Competitive inhibition was not seen in any combination of CT and NG levels in either matrix.

Analytical specificity: A panel of 184 bacteria, fungi and viruses, including those commonly found in the male/female urogenital tract, as well as representatives of N. cineria, N. flava, N. lactamica, N. perflava and N. subflava and other phylogenetically related organisms, were tested with the cobas® CT/NG Test to assess analytical specificity. The organisms were spiked at high concentrations into CT/NG negative urine specimens plus cobas PCR Media and pooled negative vaginal specimen spiked with CT and NG cultures at 3 times the limit of detection. Results indicated that none of these organisms interfered with detection of CT and NG or produced a false positive result in the CT/NG negative matrices.

Interference testing: Interference testing was performed using cobas® PCR Media plus negative urine and negative vaginal swab specimen spiked with CT and NG cultures at ~ 3 x LOD for each target. Eighteen over-the-counter (OTC) products, including contraceptive jelly, lubricants, feminine sprays, antifungal cream and anti-itch cream, as well as whole blood, cervical mucus and PBMC cells were tested for interference. Of the 18 OTC products tested, Replens® vaginal moisturizer produced invalid and/or false negative results in the cobas® PCR Media plus negative urine panel samples. No interference from Replens® vaginal moisturizer was observed with vaginal swab specimens tested. The levels of whole blood, mucus and PBMC cells shown in Table 10 represent maximum allowable concentrations which will not interfere with cobas® CT/NG Test performance.

Precision: Precision of the cobas CT/NG Test was examined in-house using a test panel composed of CT and NG cultures diluted into cobas® PCR Media and cobas® PCR Media mixed with negative urine. The precision panel was designed to include members with either CT or NG at approximately the LOD for the panel matrix, members with both CT and NG at approximately the LOD and 2.5 x LOD for the panel matrix and a negative level. Testing was done with three unique lots of cobas CT/NG Test reagents and three instruments for a total of 24 runs. All positive panel levels yielded the anticipated hit rates. All negative panel levels tested negative throughout the study.

Clinical performance: Performance characteristics of the cobas CT/NG Test were evaluated in a multi-center clinical study conducted in the United States. Specimens were collected at 12 geographically diverse sites including OB-GYN practices, public and private STD clinics, and family planning centers. A total of 2,851 evaluable male and female, symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects were enrolled. Subjects were classified as symptomatic if the subject reported symptoms indicative of CT or NG infection. Specimens collected from each female subject included urine, a clinician- or self-collected vaginal swab, endocervical swabs, and a cervical sample in PreservCyt" Solution (Hologic Corporation, Bedford MA) obtained with a spatula/cytobrush or a broom. Male subjects provided urethral swabs and urine specimens. Specimens were tested using the cobas CT/NG Test and two commercially available nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) for CT and NG. The NAATs were used as reference assays in the clinical study.
For each subject, a patient infected status (PIS) was determined based on the combined results from the reference assays. A subject was categorized as infected for CT or NG if a minimum of two positive results (at least one from each reference NAAT) was reported, as described in Table 14. Female subjects with positive results on both reference urine specimens and negative results on both reference endocervical swab specimens and the reference cervical sample were categorized as infected for urine and not infected for swab specimens. A subject was classified as non-infected if at least one of the reference NAATs reported negative results for all sample types.
Results from the cobas CT/NG Test were compared with the PIS for calculation of test sensitivity and specificity. A total of 21,988 CT and 21,987 NG results were analyzed by sex, sample type, and the presence of symptoms.
The overall sensitivity and specificity for CT was 95.7% and 99.7%. The overall prevalence was 9.0% for CT (6.3% in women and 16.4% in men). The overall sensitivity and specificity for NG was 99.0% and 99.9%. The overall prevalence was 3.6% for NG (1.6% in women. 9.2% in men).

4. NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

4.1. Analytical Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity (Limit of Detection or LOD) for the cobas® CT/NG Test was determined by analyzing dilutions of quantified CT and NG cultures of CT and NG were diluted into negative vaginal swab specimen in cobas® PCR Media and negative urine specimen plus cobas® PCR Media to determine the LOD for vaginal swab and urine specimens, respectively. All levels were analyzed using the full cobas® CT/NG Test workflow across 3 unique lots of cobas® CT/NG Test reagents. This test defines LOD as the target concentration which can be detected as positive in ≥ 95% of the replicates tested with each reagent lot.

The LOD for the CT serovar D culture and NG strain 19424 in cobas® PCR Media, vaginal swab specimens stabilized in cobas® PCR Media and urine specimens diluted into cobas® PCR Média are shown in Table 3.

4.2. Inclusivity

The sensitivity of the cobas CT/NG Test was determined for 14 additional CT serovars, the Swedish new variant (nvCT) strain and an additional 44 independently isolated strains of NG. Testing was done to demonstrate that these targets can be detected around the LOD levels determined during analytical sensitivity testing for the CT serovar D culture and NG strain

8

  1. Panels were prepared as described for the LOD study with the number of panel levels varying from 1 to 5, as required. At least 49 replicates were tested for each panel level using one lot of cobas CT/NG Test reagents. Results are shown in Table 4 and Table 5. In Table 5, all NG strains with identical LOD results are presented as a group, shown in the columns labeled "Numbers of NG Strains." Since LOD evaluation was done with samples stabilized in cobas PCR Media, the LOD for untreated urine is twice the level reported in Table 4 and Table 5.

The analytical sensitivity for all 14 CT serovars plus the nvCT variant (Table 4) ranged from 0.2 IFU/mL (IFU= Inclusion Forming Units) to 5.0 IFU/mL in cobas® PCR Media and from 0.13 IFU/mL to 0.75 IFU/mL in cobas® PCR Media plus negative urine specimen. All CT serovars and the nvCT variant were tested at 10 IFU/mL only in stabilized negative vaginal specimen and all showed 100% positive hit rates at 10 IFU/mL.

The analytical sensitivity for all 44 NG strains ranged from 3.0 CFU/mL to 20 CFU/mL in cobas® PCR Media and was 3.75 CFU/mL in cobas® PCR Media plus urine specimens. All NG strains were tested at 100 CFU/mL only in stabilized negative vaginal specimen. All showed 100% hit rates at 100 CFU/mL (CFU = Colony Forming Units).

4.3. Competitive Inhibition

Panels were prepared by spiking CT and NG cultures into urine and vaginal specimens stabilized in cobas® PCR Media to various concentration levels to examine the potential for competitive inhibition. Panels were prepared with two strains each of CT and NG. Panels were tested in one run per day over the course of 5 days. Two replicates of each panel member were tested in every run, generating a maximum of 10 test results for each level and CT and NG strain respectively. Average Ct values for each of the panel levels are summarized in Tables 6 and 7. All CT and NG hit rates were 100% for all panel levels in both matrices. Competitive inhibition was not seen in any combination of CT and NG levels in either matrix.

4.4. Analytical Specificity

A panel of 184 bacteria, fungi and viruses, including those commonly found in the male/female urogenital tract, as well as representatives of N. cineria, N. flava, N. lactamica, N. perflava and N. subflava and other phylogenetically related organisms, were tested with the cobas® CT/NG Test to assess analytical specificity. The organisms listed in Table 6 were spiked at high concentrations (microorganisms tested below 1 x 106 copies/mL are listed in Table 9) into CT/NG negative urine specimens plus cobas PCR Media and pooled negative vaginal specimen spiked with CT and NG cultures at 3 times the limit of detection.

Results indicated that none of these organisms interfered with detection of CT and NG or produced a false positive result in the CT/NG negative matrices.

4.5. Interference

Interference testing was performed using cobas® PCR Media plus negative urine and negative vaginal swab specimen spiked with CT and NG cultures at ~ 3 x LOD for each target. Eighteen over-the-counter (OTC) products, including contraceptive jelly, lubricants, feminine sprays, antifungal cream and anti-itch cream, as well as whole blood, cervical mucus and PBMC cells were tested for interference. Of the 18 OTC products tested, Replens® vaginal moisturizer produced invalid and/or false negative results in the cobas® PCR Media plus negative urine panel samples. No interference from Replens® vaginal moisturizer was observed with vaginal swab specimens tested.

The levels of whole blood, mucus and PBMC cells shown in Table 10 represent maximum allowable concentrations which will not interfere with cobas® CT/NG Test performance. Concentrations in urine samples were determined using total sample volume, including stabilizing media.

4.6. Precision

Precision of the cobas CT/NG Test was examined in-house using a test panel composed of CT and NG cultures diluted into cobas® PCR Media and cobas® PCR Media mixed with

14

negative urine. The precision panel was designed to include members with either CT or NG at approximately the LOD for the panel matrix, members with both CT and NG at approximately the LOD and 2.5 x LOD for the panel matrix and a negative level. Testing was done with three unique lots of cobas CT/NG Test reagents and three instruments for a total of 24 runs. A description of the precision panels and the study performance in % hit rate are shown in Table 11. All positive panel levels yielded the anticipated hit rates. All negative panel levels tested negative throughout the study.

5. . CLINICAL PERFORMANCE

The clinical performance characteristics of the cobas® CT/NG Test were established in two multi-center clinical investigations conducted in the United States. One study evaluated the reproducibility at one internal and two external testing sites. The other study evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of the cobas® CT/NG Test on clinical specimens.

5.1. Reproducibility

A Reproducibility Study was performed across lot, testing site, operator, run, and day for the cobas 8 CTNG Test using 2 panels prepared from swabs and urine collected in cobas PCR Media. A run for cobas® PCR Media (urine or swab) included 3 replicates of each of 5 panel members and 1 positive and 1 negative control (17 total tests). If cobas PCR Media panels were combined in a run, only 1 positive and 1 negative control were included (32 total tests). The 2 operators at each site performed 2 runs per day, for a total of 3 days of testing per operator per panel type (6 days of testing total for each panel type and reagent lot). Testing was performed with 2 reagent lots (6 days of testing per lot).

Overall. 74 runs were performed. and 72 valid runs were obtained for urine and swab panel types. The 2 invalid runs were due to instrument errors. A total of 1,080 tests were performed on the 5 panel members for each panel type in the valid runs. There was 1 invalid test result in the urine panel type, and 2 invalid test results in the swab panel type. These invalid tests were due to instrument errors.

All valid test results were included in the analyses that reported the percent agreement for CT and NG for each panel type separately. There were no false positive results for either analyte (CT and NG) for both panel types for negative panel members, thus giving negative percent agreement (NPA) of 100% for each analyte.

C. trachomatis (Table 12 and Table 13) 5.1.1.

Percent agreement for the positive panel members was excellent across both panel types and panel members showing a positive percent agreement (PPA) of 100%.

Analysis of variance components of the Ct values from valid tests performed on positive panel members yielded overall CV (%) ranges from 1.1% to 1.5% for the urine panel type and 1.6% to 1.8% for the swab panel type.

5.2. Clinical Specimen Study

5.2.1. Study Design

Performance characteristics of the cobas CT/NG Test were evaluated in a multi-center clinical study conducted in the United States. Specimens were collected at 12 geographically diverse sites including OB-GYN practices, public and private STD clinics, and family planning centers. A total of 2.851 evaluable male and female, symptomatic and asymptomatic subjects were enrolled. Subjects were classified as symptomatic if the subject reported symptoms indicative of CT or NG infection. Specimens collected from each female subject included urine, a clinician- or self-collected vaginal swab, endocervical swabs, and a cervical sample in PreservCyt" Solution (Hologic Corporation, Bedford MA) obtained with a spatula/cytobrush or a broom. Male subjects provided urethral swabs and urine specimens. Specimens were tested using the cobas CT/NG Test and two commercially available nucleic acid amplification tests (NAAT) for CT and NG. The NAATs were used as reference assays in the clinical study.

For females, urine specimens were collected first. If a cervical cytology test was a scheduled part of the visit, that sample was taken next, followed by a vaginal swab and then endocervical swabs. If a cervical cytology test was not a scheduled part of the visit, a vaginal swab was taken next, followed by endocervical swabs and then the cervical specimen. The order of endocervical swab collection as well as clinician- or self-collection of the vaginal swab was alternated to minimize collection bias. For males, the urethral swabs were collected first in alternating order

20

and then the urine specimen was collected. All specimens were taken and stored according to the manufacturer's instructions.

Determination of Patient Infected Status 5.2.2.

For each subject, a patient infected status (PIS) was determined based on the combined results from the reference assays. A subject was categorized as infected for CT or NG if a minimum of two positive results (at least one from each reference NAAT) was reported, as described in Table 14. Female subjects with positive results on both reference urine specimens and negative results on both reference endocervical swab specimens and the reference cervical sample were categorized as infected for urine and not infected for swab specimens. A subject was classified as non-infected if at least one of the reference NAATs reported negative results for all sample types.

If patient infected status could not be determined due to missing and/or indeterminate results from the reference tests, the subject was excluded from the analysis. PIS could not be determined for one subject.

5.2.3. Study Results

Table 15 through Table 22 summarize the data from the clinical specimen study.

Results from the cobas CT/NG Test were compared with the PIS for calculation of test sensitivity and specificity. A total of 21,988 CT and 21,987 NG results were analyzed by sex. sample type, and the presence of symptoms. The overall sensitivity and specificity for CT was 95.7% and 99.7%. The overall prevalence was 9.0% for CT (6.3% in women and 16.4% in men). The overall sensitivity and specificity for NG was 99.0% and 99.9%. The overall prevalence was 3.6% for NG (1.6% in women. 9.2% in men). Sensitivity, specificity, and prevalence for CT are presented in Table 15. Sensitivity, specificity, and prevalence for NG are presented in Table 16.

A comparison of patient infected status, test results from the reference tests and test results from the cobas CT/NG Test was performed. CT results for female subjects are presented in Table 17, and for male subjects in Table 18. NG results for female subjects are presented in Table 19. and for male subjects in Table 20.

The positive and negative predictive values (PPV and NPV) were calculated using hypothetical prevalence rates and the cobas® CT/NG Test sensitivity and specificity determined in the study. The positive and negative predictive value estimates for CT are presented in Table 21, and for NG in Table 22.

5.2.4. Conclusion Drawn from Clinical Specimen Study

In both symptomatic and asymptomatic patients, the cobas® CT/NG Test offers high sensitivity, specificity, and positive and negative predictive values for the direct, qualitative detection of CT and NG in male urine specimens and self-collected vaginal swabs. These results are of key importance from both diagnostic and public health perspectives.

CONCLUSION 6.

A comparison of the intended use, technological characteristics, and the results of non-clinical analytical and clinical performance studies demonstrate that the cobas® CT/NG Test is safe and effective when used in accordance with the product labeling.

Dear Mr. Bonds:

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. Drug, 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 the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. 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); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. 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

29

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 Part 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.goy/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.
