The Virtuoso system provides automated digital slide creation, management, analysis, and viewing. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting, review and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular morphology, color, intensity, size, pattern and shape. The Virtuoso™ System for p53 (DO-7) is for digital read and image analysis applications. This particular Virtuoso system is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of p53 (DO-7) protein in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue. This device is an accessory to the Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. CONFIRM™ anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody assay. The Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. CONFIRM™ anti-p53 assay is indicated for the assessment of p53 protein where mutations have been linked to tumor proliferation. When used with this assay, the Virtuoso™ System for p53 (DO-7) is indicated for use as an aid in the assessment of p53 status in breast cancer patients (but is not the sole basis for treatment). Note: The IHC p53 (D0-7) Digital Read and Image Analysis applications are adjunctive computer-assisted methodologies for the qualified pathologist in the acquisition and measurement of images from microscope glass slides of breast cancer specimens stained for the presence of p53 protein. The pathologist should verify agreement with the Image Analysis software application score. The accuracy of the test results depends on the quality of the immunohistochemical staining. It is the responsibility of a qualified pathologist to employ appropriate morphological studies and controls as specified in the instructions for the CONFIRMTM anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody assay used to assure the validity of the Virtuoso System for IHC p53 Digital Read and Image Analysis scores. The actual correlation of CONFIRM™ anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody to clinical outcome has not been established.

§ 864.1860 Immunohistochemistry reagents and kits.

(a)
Identification. Immunohistochemistry test systems (IHC's) are in vitro diagnostic devices consisting of polyclonal or monoclonal antibodies labeled with directions for use and performance claims, which may be packaged with ancillary reagents in kits. Their intended use is to identify, by immunological techniques, antigens in tissues or cytologic specimens. Similar devices intended for use with flow cytometry devices are not considered IHC's.(b)
Classification of immunohistochemistry devices. (1) Class I (general controls). Except as described in paragraphs (b)(2) and (b)(3) of this section, these devices are exempt from the premarket notification requirements in part 807, subpart E of this chapter. This exemption applies to IHC's that provide the pathologist with adjunctive diagnostic information that may be incorporated into the pathologist's report, but that is not ordinarily reported to the clinician as an independent finding. These IHC's are used after the primary diagnosis of tumor (neoplasm) has been made by conventional histopathology using nonimmunologic histochemical stains, such as hematoxylin and eosin. Examples of class I IHC's are differentiation markers that are used as adjunctive tests to subclassify tumors, such as keratin.(2) Class II (special control, guidance document: “FDA Guidance for Submission of Immunohistochemistry Applications to the FDA,” Center for Devices and Radiologic Health, 1998). These IHC's are intended for the detection and/or measurement of certain target analytes in order to provide prognostic or predictive data that are not directly confirmed by routine histopathologic internal and external control specimens. These IHC's provide the pathologist with information that is ordinarily reported as independent diagnostic information to the ordering clinician, and the claims associated with these data are widely accepted and supported by valid scientific evidence. Examples of class II IHC's are those intended for semiquantitative measurement of an analyte, such as hormone receptors in breast cancer.
(3) Class III (premarket approval). IHC's intended for any use not described in paragraphs (b)(1) or (b)(2) of this section.
(c)
Date of PMA or notice of completion of a PDP is required. As of May 28, 1976, an approval under section 515 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act is required for any device described in paragraph (b)(3) of this section before this device may be commercially distributed. See § 864.3.

807.92 (b)(1/2): Brief Description of Clinical Data (Non-clinical data N/A)

The Virtuoso System for IHC p53 (DO-7) was clinically validated via two studies. The first (primary) study evaluated overall system performance across four sites in terms of: (1) agreement between the reference manual method (with a traditional microscope) and both the digital read (DR) and image analysis (IA) applications of of the Virtuoso system, (2) intra-pathologist/inter-day reproducibility of the two Virtuoso applications (3 sessions), and (3) interpathologist reproducibility (3 sites) of the two Virtuoso applications.

In the second study, scanner precision was evaluated in an isolated fashion via a cross-over design from the primary study. In this second study, a subset of the clinical cases (n = 40) was scanned two more times with two different scanners at two separate locations. This study evaluated scanner precision of the image analysis application only for both inter-scanner precision and intrascanner/inter-day precision, as the image analysis application is the more objective of the two applications and is not affected by memory bias as would be the case with human interpretations. The data from both studies are summarized below.

Agreement/Concordance

  • Virtuoso Digital Read vs Manual Method a.
    Each pathologist's Virtuoso digital read results were compared to their manual results. The data were categorized as "neg" and "pos" using p53 classifications of less than or equal to 10% to describe negative, and greater than 10% to describe positive. The overall agreements across the four sites were: 93%, 95%, 94% and 82%, respectively. The data, with the 95% confidence intervals (CI) around the agreements are shown below.

INDICATIONS FOR USE

510(k) Number (if Known):

K111872

Virtuoso™ System for IHC p53 (DO-7) Device Name:

Indications for Use

The Virtuoso system provides automated digital slide creation, management, analysis, and viewing. It is intended for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid to the pathologist in the display, detection, counting, review and classification of tissues and cells of clinical interest based on particular morphology, color, intensity, size, pattern and shape.

The Virtuoso™ System for p53 (DO-7) is for digital read and image analysis applications. This particular Virtuoso system is intended for use as an aid to the pathologist in the detection and semi-quantitative measurement of p53 (DO-7) protein in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded normal and neoplastic tissue. This device is an accessory to the Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. CONFIRM™ anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody assay. The Ventana Medical Systems, Inc. CONFIRM™ anti-p53 assay is indicated for the assessment of p53 protein where mutations have been linked to tumor proliferation. When used with this assay, the Virtuoso™ System for p53 (DO-7) is indicated for use as an aid in the assessment of p53 status in breast cancer patients (but is not the sole basis for treatment).

Note: The IHC p53 (D0-7) Digital Read and Image Analysis applications are adjunctive computer-assisted methodologies for the qualified pathologist in the acquisition and measurement of images from microscope glass slides of breast cancer specimens stained for the presence of p53 protein. The pathologist should verify agreement with the Image Analysis software application score. The accuracy of the test results depends on the quality of the immunohistochemical staining. It is the responsibility of a qualified pathologist to employ appropriate morphological studies and controls as specified in the instructions for the CONFIRM™ anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody assay used to assure the validity of the Virtuoso System for IHC p53 Digital Read and Image Analysis scores. The actual correlation of CONFIRM™ anti-p53 (DO-7) Mouse Monoclonal Primary Antibody to clinical outcome has not been established.
