No
The summary describes a standard chemiluminescent immunoassay kit and its performance characteristics, with no mention of AI or ML in the intended use, device description, or performance studies.

No
This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay designed for the quantitative determination of testosterone levels, which is used for diagnosis and monitoring of medical conditions, not for therapeutic intervention.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Measurements of testosterone are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving the male sex hormones (androgens)..." This directly indicates its role in diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components including reagent kits, microparticles, conjugate, diluents, calibrators, and controls, which are all tangible chemical substances and materials, not software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states the quantitative determination of testosterone in human serum and plasma for the diagnosis and treatment of various disorders. This aligns directly with the definition of an in vitro diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: The device consists of reagents (microparticles, conjugate, diluents) and calibrators and controls, which are typical components of an in vitro diagnostic assay kit used to perform tests on biological samples.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes performance studies such as precision, sensitivity, linearity, interference, and method comparison, which are standard evaluations for IVD devices to demonstrate their analytical performance.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (Roche Elecsys Testosterone II assay) with a K number (K093421) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD device, a common practice in the regulatory pathway for IVDs.

All these elements strongly indicate that the ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone assay is an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

A method comparison study was performed based on guidance from the CLSI document EP9-A2-IR using the Passing-Bablok regression method to compare the ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone assay to the LCMS testosterone method. The data are summarized in the following tables.

8. Conclusion

The data presented in this premarket notification demonstrates that the ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone assay performs substantially equivalent to the predicate device, the Roche Elecsys Testosterone II assay (K093421). Accuracy was demonstrated by comparison to a Liquid Chromatography - Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LCMS) reference method. The data presented in the premarket notification provide reasonable assurance that the ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone assay is safe and effective for the stated intended use.

Dear Mr. Rizos:

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 either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting (1 writ), it may of babyest to Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. four device can be four learning 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 moun mat FDP may Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. of the recordly 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 and fishing (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820).

Indications for Use

510(k) Number (if known): K120009 Device Name: ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone ARCHITECT 2nd Generation.Testosterone Calibrators ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone Controls

Indications for Use:

The ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone assay is a chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) for the quantitative determination of testosterone in human serum and plasma. Measurements of testosterone are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving the male sex hormones (androgens), including primary and secondary hypogonadism, delayed or precocious puberty, impotence in males and, in females, hirsutism (excessive hair) and virilization (masculinization) due to tumors, polycystic ovaries, and adrenogenital syndromes.

The ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone Calibrators are for the calibration of the ARCHITECT i System when used for the quantitative determination of testosterone in human serum and plasma.

The ARCHITECT 2nd Generation Testosterone Controls are for the verification of the accuracy and precision of the ARCHITECT i System when used for the quantitative determination of testosterone in human serum and plasma.
