Device Description

The Quidel Molecular hMPV Assay detects viral nucleic acids that have been extracted from a patient sample using the NucliSENS® easyMAG® automated extraction platform. A multiplex RT-PCR reaction is carried out under optimized conditions in a single tube generating amplicons for each of the target viruses present in the sample. This reaction is performed utilizing the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx platform. Identification of hMPV occurs by the use of target specific primers and a fluorescent- labeled probe that hybridizes to conserved regions in the RNA dependent RNA polymerase gene of hMPV.

The following is a summary of the procedure:

  1. Sample Collection: Obtain nasal or nasopharyngeal swab specimens using standard techniques from symptomatic patients. These specimens are transported, stored, and processed according to established laboratory procedures.
  2. Nucleic Acid Extraction: Extract Nucleic Acids from the specimens with the NucliSENS easyMAG System following the manufacturer's instructions using the appropriate reagents.

Prior to the extraction procedure add 20 uL of the Process Control (PRC) to each 180 uL aliquot of specimen. The PRC serves to monitor inhibitors in the extracted specimen, assures that adequate amplification has taken place and that nucleic acid extraction was sufficient.

  1. Rehydration of Master Mix: Rehydrate the lyophilized Master Mix using 135uL of Rehydration Solution. The Master Mix contains oligonucleotide primers. fluorophore and quencher-labeled probes targeting highly conserved regions of hMPV as well as the process control sequence. The primers are complementary to highly specific and conserved regions in the genome of the virus. The probes are dual labeled with a reporter dye attached to the 5'end and a quencher attached to the 3' end. The rehydrated Master Mix is sufficient for eight reactions.

  2. Nucleic Acid Amplification and Detection: Add 15 uL of the rehydrated Master Mix to each reaction plate well. 5uL of extracted nucleic acids (specimen with PRC) is then added to the plate well. Then place the plate into the Applied Biosystems 7500 FastDx.
    Once the plate is added to the instrument, the assay protocol is initiated. This protocol initiates reverse transcription of the RNA targets generating complementary DNA, and the subsequent amplification of the target amplicons occurs. The Quidel Molecular hMPV assay is based on TaqMan® chemistry, and uses an enzyme with reverse transcriptase. DNA polymerase, and 5'-3' exonuclease activities. During DNA amplification, this enzyme cleaves the probe bound to the complementary DNA sequence, separating the quencher dye from the reporter dye. This step generates an increase in fluorescent signal upon excitation by a light source of the appropriate wavelength. With each cycle, additional dye molecules are separated from their quenchers resulting in additional signal. If sufficient fluorescence is achieved by 35 cycles during the data collection stage of amplification, the sample is reported as positive for the detected nucleic acid.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol

A total of 1116 specimens were evaluated in this study (742-fresh, 374frozen). Of the fresh specimens, 399 specimens were nasal swabs, and 343 were nasopharyngeal swabs. The fresh specimens were collected for routine respiratory virus testing at thirteen sites across the United States. The frozen specimens were collected and tested at two geographically distinct locations and were comprised of 374 nasopharyngeal swabs.

The 1116 specimens were tested by both the subject and a comparator device for human metapneumovirus RNA. Sixteen of these specimens were invalid on initial testing with the subject device (1.4%). Re-testing of the specimens according to the Interpretation algorithm described above also yielded invalid results. Thirty-six specimens were invalid on initial and repeat testing (as per the device's package insert) on the comparator device (3.2%). The invalid specimens have been removed from the additional analysis. The Table 5.6 below details the results for the remaining 1072 specimens.

Device Description:

The Quidel Molecular hMPV Assay detects viral nucleic acids that have been extracted from a patient sample using the NucliSENS® easyMAG® automated extraction platform. A multiplex RT-PCR reaction is carried out under optimized conditions in a single tube generating amplicons for each of the target viruses present in the sample. This reaction is performed utilizing the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx platform. Identification of hMPV occurs by the use of target specific primers and a fluorescent- labeled probe that hybridizes to conserved regions in the RNA dependent RNA polymerase gene of hMPV.

Clinical Performance:

Performance characteristics of the Quidel Molecular hMPV assay were established during a prospective study during the 2010-2011 respiratory virus season (January to March 2011). A total of 1116 specimens were evaluated in this study (742-fresh, 374frozen). Of the fresh specimens, 399 specimens were nasal swabs, and 343 were nasopharyngeal swabs. The fresh specimens were collected for routine respiratory virus testing at thirteen sites across the United States. The frozen specimens were collected and tested at two geographically distinct locations and were comprised of 374 nasopharyngeal swabs.

The 1116 specimens were tested by both the subject and a comparator device for human metapneumovirus RNA. Sixteen of these specimens were invalid on initial testing with the subject device (1.4%). Re-testing of the specimens according to the Interpretation algorithm described above also yielded invalid results. Thirty-six specimens were invalid on initial and repeat testing (as per the device's package insert) on the comparator device (3.2%). The invalid specimens have been removed from the additional analysis. The Table 5.6 below details the results for the remaining 1072 specimens.
