Intended Use
The Cryptococcal Antigen Lateral Flow Assay (CrAg LFA) is an immunochromatographic test system for the qualitative or semi-quantitative detection of capsular polysaccharide antigens of Cryptococcus species complex (Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gattii) in serum and cerebral spinal fluid (CSF). The CrAg Lateral Flow Assay is a prescription-use laboratory assay, which can aid in the diagnosis of cryptococcosis.
Device Description
The CrAg Lateral Flow Assay is a dipstick sandwich immunochromatographic assay, which detects cryptococcal antigen in serum and CSF. For the qualitative procedure, specimens are diluted 1:2 in 1x Specimen Diluent and analyzed. For the semi-quantitative procedure, specimens are diluted 1:5 in 1x Specimen Diluent followed by 1:2 serial dilutions. All dilutions are then analyzed as in the qualitative procedure. Specimens are placed into an appropriate reservoir, such as a test tube or microtiter plate, and the lateral flow device is then placed into the reservoir allowing the specimen to come into contact with the test membrane. The test uses specimen wicking to capture gold-conjugated, anti-cryptococcal monoclonal antibodies and gold-conjugated control antibodies that are deposited onto a membrane. If cryptococcal antigen is present in the specimen, it binds to the gold-conjugated, anti-cryptococcal antibodies. The gold-labeled antibody-antigen complex will continue to wick up the membrane where it will interact with the Test Line (T). The Test Line is immobilized anti-cryptococcal monoclonal antibodies. If the specimen contains cryptococcal antigen, a sandwich is created with the gold-labeled antibodies and the immobilized antibodies, causing a visible line to develop at the test line site (T). If proper flow occurs and the reagents are reactive at the time of use, the wicking of any specimen, positive or negative, will cause the gold-conjugated control goat IgG antibody to move to the Control Line (C) which is immobilized bovine anti-goat IgG antibody. The immobilized anti-goat antibody will bind to the gold-conjugated goat IgG Control antibody and will cause a visible line to develop (C). A positive test result will create two lines, while a negative test result will create one line (Figure 1). If the control line fails to develop a line, then the test is not valid.

Summary of Performance Studies

Precision Studies (Repeatability & Reproducibility):
CSF specimens were spiked with cryptococcal antigen at four concentrations (Negative, high negative, low positive, and medium positive). Samples were analyzed on the CrAg Lateral Flow Assay in triplicate on five different days, at three different sites (one internal, two external US laboratories) with a total of five different operators, on one lot. For repeatability, percent positive and percent negative detected were calculated for each site. For reproducibility, overall percent positive and percent negative detected were calculated by combining data from all three sites.

Analytical Sensitivity:
Estimated by running 24 replicates of varying concentrations of cryptococcal antigen diluted in mock CSF on one lot of kits. The analytical cut-off was defined as the concentration where 50% of the results were positive and 50% of the results were negative. The analytical cut-off is 1.25ng/ml.

Analytical Specificity (cross-reactivity):
No information provided on the test set for analytical specificity; instead, it is stated that "Due to specimen availability, the following CSF conditions were not tested in the CrAg Lateral Flow Assay: S. pneumonia, Enterovirus, Enterobacteriaceae, Streptococcus spp., Staphylococcus spp., diphtheroid, H. influenzae type B, N. meningitidis, Enterococcus spp., Epstein Barr, Herpes simplex virus Type 1 and 2, Listeria monocytogenes, Trichosporon beigelii, and samples with syneresis fluid condensation." And "This assay was not evaluated for potential interference related to specimen pretreatment with 2-mercaptoethanol or with specimens including the following subastances or conditions: bloody CSF, cloudy CSF, white blood cells, xanthochromic CSF, bilirubin, protein, systemic lupus erythmatosus (SLE), sarcoidosis, or N. memingitides."

High Dose Hook Effect:
High dose hook effect concentrations were determined by spiking negative serum (previously negative by IMMY Latex-Cryptococcus Antigen Detection System and CrAg Lateral Flow Assay) with cryptococcal antigen at various concentrations between 20 and 500ug/ml. Each concentration was tested in triplicate on one lot of CrAg Lateral Flow Assay. It was determined that serum specimens with a cryptococcal antigen concentration higher than 200ug/ml can produce a high dose hook effect and therefore may produce a false negative result.

Other Method Comparison - Culture/India Ink (Gold Standards):
The CrAg Lateral Flow Assay was compared to the gold standard for the diagnosis of cryptococcosis (culture and/or India Ink) using CSF specimens. These studies contained a mix of both prospective and retrospective specimens.
Sample Size: Not explicitly stated for each category, but from the 2x2 table, 65 positive culture/India Ink samples and 99 negative culture/India Ink samples were tested.
Key Results:
Sensitivity: 100% (95% CI: 94.4-100.0%)
Specificity: 100% (95% CI: 96.3-100%)

Key Metrics

Analytical sensitivity cut-off: 1.25 ng/ml.
Repeatability/Reproducibility CSF:
High Negative: Site 1: 90% negative, 10% positive; Site 2: 100% negative, 0% positive; Site 3: 100% negative, 0% positive. Overall: 96% negative, 4% positive.

Cryptococcus neoformans serological reagents.(a)
Identification. Cryptococcus neoformans serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens used in serological tests to identify antibodies toCryptococcus neoformans in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent reagents) and are used to identifyCryptococcus neoformans directly from clinical specimens or from cultured isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of cryptococcosis and provides epidemiological information on this type of disease. Cryptococcosis infections are found most often as chronic meningitis (inflammation of brain membranes) and, if not treated, are usually fatal.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 866.9.

The CrAg Lateral Flow Assay is a prescription-use laboratory assay, which can aid in the diagnosis of Cryptococcosis.

Device Description:

Explanation:

Detection of cryptococcal antigen in serum and CSF has been used for over forty years to aid in the diagnosis of cryptococcosis with very high sensitivity and specificity (9,14,15). Current guidelines for the management of cryptococcal disease partially base treatment recommendations on cryptococcal antigen presence and more specifically on cryptococcal antigen titers (16).

Cryptococcosis is caused by both species of the Cryptococcus species complex (Cryptococcus neoformans and Cryptococcus gatti) (5,6,12,13). Individuals with impaired cell-mediated

immune (CMI) function due to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) (19), lymphoproliferative disorders (18), steroid therapy (8), and organ transplantation (7) are at increased risk of cryptococcosis. AIDS accounts for 80-90% of cryptococcal infections (11). The incidence of cryptococcosis in AIDS patients in the United States is estimated to be 5-10% (11), while the incidence of cryptococcosis in other parts of the world, such as Africa, is as high as 30% (3). Cryptococcosis is the fourth most common opportunistic, life-threatening infection among AIDS patients (10).

Description:

The CrAg Lateral Flow Assay is a dipstick sandwich immunochromatographic assay, which detects cryptococcal antigen in serum and CSF. For the qualitative procedure, specimens are diluted 1:2 in 1x Specimen Diluent and analyzed. For the semi-quantitative procedure, specimens are diluted 1:5 in 1x Specimen Diluent followed by 1:2 serial dilutions. All dilutions are then analyzed as in the qualitative procedure. Specimens are placed into an appropriate reservoir, such as a test tube or microtiter plate, and the lateral flow device is then placed into the reservoir allowing the specimen to come into contact with the test membrane. The test uses specimen wicking to capture gold-conjugated, anti-cryptococcal monoclonal antibodies and gold-conjugated control antibodies that are deposited onto a membrane. If cryptococcal antigen is present in the specimen, it binds to the gold-conjugated, anti-cryptococcal antibodies. The gold-labeled antibody-antigen complex will continue to wick up the membrane where it will interact with the Test Line (T). The Test Line is immobilized anti-cryptococcal monoclonal antibodies. If the specimen contains cryptococcal antigen, a sandwich is created with the gold-labeled antibodies and the immobilized antibodies, causing a visible line to develop at the test line site (T). If proper flow occurs and the reagents are reactive at the time of use, the wicking of any specimen, positive or negative, will cause the gold-conjugated control goat IgG antibody to move to the Control Line (C) which is immobilized bovine anti-goat IgG antibody. The immobilized anti-goat antibody will bind to the gold-conjugated goat IgG Control antibody and will cause a visible line to develop (C). A positive test result will create two lines, while a negative test result will create one line (Figure 1). If the control line fails to develop a line, then the test is not valid.

The diagram illustrates the components of the test, including the plastic overlay, backer card, sample application area, gold-conjugated antibodies, test line, and control line. It also shows the results of a positive and negative test. The positive test result shows two lines, while the negative test result shows only one line.

Repeatability and reproducibility with CSF specimens were determined by spiking a mock CSF that was negative by the IMMY Latex-Cryptococcus Antigen Detection System with cryptococcal antigen at four concentrations: Negative, high negative (CJ), low positive (near C95), and medium positive. The samples were analyzed on the CrAg Lateral Flow Assay in triplicate on five different days, at three different sites with a total of five different operators, on one lot, according to EP5-A2. One site was internal (Site 1) and the remaining two were a US reference laboratory (Site 2) and a US hospital laboratory (Site 3). For repeatability, percent positive and percent negative detected were calculated for each site (Table 2). For reproducibility, overall percent positive and percent negative detected were calculated by combining the data from all three sites (last two rows of Table 2).
