Intended Use
The PLEX-ID Flu assay is a qualitative nucleic acid in vitro diagnostic test intended for the detection and differentiation of influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A H1N1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal) and influenza B viral nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients symptomatic for respiratory tract infection. The PLEX-ID Flu assay is intended for use on the PLEX-ID System (version 1.2) as an aid in the diagnosis of influenza infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information. This assay is not intended to detect influenza C virus. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions, If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

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

A total of 1287 prospective NP swab specimens were collected for the PLEX-ID Flu clinical study. Of the 1287, five specimens were excluded: duplicate specimens were collected from two subjects (the second specimen from each subject was excluded from the analysis), one specimen from a subject who did not meet the inclusion criteria, and two specimens had an invalid PLEX-ID Flu result, for a total of 1282 included specimens. The specimens were collected from two U.S. clinical sites and three specimen suppliers from September 2009 through June 2010.

A total of 1378 retrospective specimens were tested. Of these specimens, 1341 were included in the analysis (the remaining 37 were excluded either due to unavailable results for the PLEX-ID Flu assay or Comparator 1 assay, duplicate subjects, or failure to meet subject inclusion criteria). These specimens consisted of pre-selected banked specimens collected in February 2008, and from January 2009 through March 2009, and left over archived specimens collected from April 2009 through December 2009.

Clinical performance was assessed by testing nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens from subjects presenting with symptoms of influenza-like illness. Prospectively collected clinical specimens were tested at three sites. All specimens were tested with an assay FDA cleared for the detection and discrimination of influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and Respiratory Syncytial virus nucleic acids isolated and purified from NP swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients (Comparator 1). Specimens with a positive influenza A test result went on for further testing with Comparator 2, an assay FDA cleared for the detection and discrimination of influenza A virus subtypes [influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A H1NI (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal)] from nucleic acids isolated and purified from NP swab specimens. Aliquots from the same specimens were tested with the PLEX-ID Flu assay. PCR followed by bi-directional sequencing was used to test discrepant samples between Comparator 1 and Comparator 2, Comparator 1 vs. PLEX-ID Flu, and Comparator 2 vs. PLEX-ID Flu. The results from bi-directional sequence testing were not used to calculate the positive percent agreement and negative percent agreement of the PLEX-ID Flu assay.

5.10 Background on Influenza

Influenza is a respiratory virus that can cause mild to severe disease, and at times can lead to death. Every year in the United States, on average 5% to 20% of the population gets the flu; more than 200,000 people are hospitalized from flu complications, and about 3,000 to 49,000 people die from flu-related causes. Some people, such as adults 65 years or older, young children, and people with certain health conditions, are at high risk for serious flu complications.1,2

There are two main types of influenza (flu) virus, A and B, which are responsible for seasonal epidemics of flu amongst humans. Influenza A viruses are divided into subtypes based on two proteins on the surface of the virus: hemagglutinin (H) and neuraminidase (N). The common Influenza A virus subtypes found in people are A (HINI) and A (H3N2). In April of 2009, a new strain of Influenza A emerged. On June 11, 2009 WHO classified the 2009 H1N1 Influenza A strain as the cause of a phase 6 pandemic.3

Intended UsePLEX-ID Flu
The PLEX-ID Flu assay is a qualitative nucleic acid in vitro diagnostic test intended for the detection and differentiation of influenza A H1N1 (2009), influenza A H1N1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal) and influenza B viral nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients symptomatic for respiratory tract infection. The PLEX-ID Flu assay is intended for use on the PLEX-ID System (version 1.2) as an aid in the diagnosis of influenza infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information. This assay is not intended to detect influenza C virus. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions. If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.Prodesse ProFLU+
The ProFlu™+ Assay is a multiplex Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) in vitro diagnostic test for the rapid and qualitative detection and discrimination of Influenza A Virus, Influenza B Virus, and Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) nucleic acids isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients. This test is intended for use to aid in the differential diagnosis of Influenza A, Influenza B and RSV viral infections in humans and is not intended to detect Influenza C. Negative results do not preclude influenza or RSV virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions. It is recommended that negative RSV results be confirmed by culture. Performance characteristics for Influenza A Virus were established when Influenza A/H3 and A/H1 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. When other Influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.Prodesse ProFAST+
The ProFAST™+ Assay is a multiplex Real Time RT-PCR in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection and discrimination of seasonal Influenza A/H1, seasonal Influenza A/H3 and 2009 H1N1 Influenza viral nucleic acids isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. This assay targets conserved regions of the Hemagglutinin (HA) gene for seasonal Influenza A/H1, seasonal Influenza A/H3 and 2009 H1N1 Influenza Virus, respectively. This assay is not intended to detect Influenza B or Influenza C Viruses. A negative ProFAST+ Assay result is a presumptive negative result for Influenza A. These results should be confirmed by an FDA cleared nucleic acid-based test (NAT) detecting Influenza A. Negative results do not preclude Influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

5.12 Performance Characteristics

5.12.1 Expected Values

The clinical performance of the PLEX-ID Flu assay on the PLEX-ID System was established using nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens prospectively collected from two U.S. clinical sites and three specimen suppliers from September 2009 through June 2010. A total of 1287 prospective NP swab specimens were collected for the PLEX-ID Flu clinical study. Of the 1287, five specimens were excluded: duplicate specimens were collected from two subjects (the second specimen from each subject was excluded from the analysis), one specimen from a subject who did not meet the inclusion criteria, and two specimens had an invalid PLEX-ID Flu result, for a total of 1282 included specimens. The prevalence of influenza A 2009 H1N1 decreased significantly during the collection period, consequently, there were only 37 positive influenza A 2009 H1N1, 4 positive influenza A HINI (seasonal), 50 positive influenza A H3N2 (seasonal), and 24 positive influenza B specimens among the 1282 specimens. Prevalence rates and demographics are presented in Table 2 and Table 3, respectively, for four of the five sites that provided prospectively collected specimens. No demographic information was available from supplier Site 3 (N=199) and one subject from clinical Site 1,

5.12.2 Clinical Performance

5.12.2.1 Prospective Clinical Study

Clinical performance of the PLEX-ID Flu assay was assessed by testing nasopharyngeal (NP) swab specimens from subjects presenting with symptoms of influenza-like illness.

Prospectively collected clinical specimens were tested at three sites. All specimens were

tested with an assay FDA cleared for the detection and discrimination of influenza A

virus, influenza B virus, and Respiratory Syncytial virus nucleic acids isolated and PLEX-ID Flu 510(k) K121003 510(k) Summary December 2012 Page 14 of 31

purified from NP swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients (Comparator 1). Specimens with a positive influenza A test result went on for further testing with Comparator 2, an assay FDA cleared for the detection and discrimination of influenza A virus subtypes [influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A H1NI (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal)] from nucleic acids isolated and purified from NP swab specimens. Aliquots from the same specimens were tested with the PLEX-ID Flu assay. For each subtype of influenza A [H]N] (2009), H1N1 (seasonal), H3N2 (seasonal)], the point estimate for positive percent agreement (PPA) and negative percent agreement (NPA) was calculated. PCR followed by bi-directional sequencing was used to test discrepant samples between Comparator 1 and Comparator 2, Comparator 1 vs. PLEX-ID Flu. and Comparator 2 vs. PLEX-ID Flu. The results from bi-directional sequence testing were not used to calculate the positive percent agreement and negative percent agreement of the PLEX-ID Flu assay.

Of the 1282 specimens included in the study, 6 were unresolved by Comparator 1 and were excluded, resulting in 1276 specimens included in the final analysis.

A total of 90 unique specimens were influenza A positive by Comparator 1 and 1186 were negative. All 90 specimens were tested by Comparator 2 to determine influenza A subtypes [influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A H1N1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal)]. From these 90 unique specimens, 6 were negative for all three subtypes by Comparator 2. The remaining 84 specimens generated a total of 88 positive results. Four specimens generated two different subtype results each by Comparator 2. For one of these four specimens, Comparator 2 assay reported both HIN1 and H3N2 while the PLEX-ID Flu assay reported an HIN1 (seasonal) result. For the remaining 3 specimens, Comparator 2 reported both H3N2 and H1N1, whereas the PLEX-ID Flu assay reported H3N2 (seasonal). These 88 positive results comprised 32 influenza A H1N1 (2009), 7 influenza A HINI (seasonal) positive, and 49 influenza A H3N2 (seasonal) positive results.

From the 1287 prospective NP swab specimens collected for this study and tested, 98.7% (1285/1302) of PLEX-ID assays results generated were valid.

5.12.2.2 Retrospective Specimen Testing

Due to the decreased prevalence of influenza A 2009 H1N1 and the absence of influenza A seasonal H1N1 and H3N2, the prospectively collected specimen population was supplemented with pre-selected banked specimens that were collected in February 2008, and from January 2009 through March 2009, and left over archived specimens collected from April 2009 through December 2009.

A total of 1378 retrospective specimens were tested. Of these specimens, 1341 were included in the analysis (the remaining 37 were excluded either due to unavailable results for the PLEX-ID Flu assay or Comparator 1 assay, duplicate subjects, or failure to meet subject inclusion criteria).

Of the 1341 retrospective specimens, 634 were influenza A positive and 707 were negative by Comparator 1. All 634 positive specimens were tested to determine influenza A subtype (influenza A 2009 H1N1, influenza A (seasonal) HINI, influenza A

(seasonal) H3N2). Two specimens were unresolved by Comparator 2 and, therefore, excluded, resulting in 1339 total specimens in the analysis. Fifty-four of the 634 Comparator 1 influenza A positive specimens were negative for all three subtypes by Comparator 2 and were included as Comparator negative specimens. Consequently, 578 positive results were included in the analysis: 548 influenza A HINI (2009), 28 influenza A HINI (seasonal), and 2 influenza A H3N2 (seasonal).

From the 1378 retrospective NP swab specimens tested in this study, 93.4% (1368/1464) of PLEX-ID assays results generated were valid.

The comparison of the PLEX-ID Flu and Comparator 2 results for influenza A H1N1 (2009) are shown in Table 8, influenza A H1N1 (seasonal) in Table 9, and influenza A H3N2 (seasonal) in Table 10.

5.12.3 Summary of Nonclinical Studies

5.12.4 Limit of Detection

The limit of detection (LOD) for the PLEX-ID Flu assay was determined by testing quantitated influenza strains diluted in negative nasopharyngeal swab matrix. Twenty replicates of the following were tested: influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A H1N1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal), and influenza B. The LOD was defined as the lowest influenza concentration at which ≥ 95% of replicates tested positive. The results are presented in Table 12.

5.12.4.1 Reproducibility

The reproducibility of the PLEX-ID Flu assay was evaluated at 3 clinical sites. Reproducibility was assessed using a nine member panel of contrived samples that included a negative member, low positive panel members targeted near the assay LOD and moderate positive panel members targeted at approximately 2 to 3 times the LOD for influenza B and the 3 influenza A subtypes detected by the assay. Samples were tested in replicates of 4 with one replicate each of the positive and negative control per batch. Two (2) batches were run per day and each was run by a different operator with 2 operators per site. The study was designed to allow for a total of 120 results for each panel member over 5 days of testing. The results are presented in Table 13.

5.12.4.4 Potentially Interfering Substances

The effect of substances that may be present in nasopharyngeal swab samples for potential interference with the PLEX-ID Flu assay was evaluated. Negative samples and samples containing influenza A HINI (2009), influenza A HIN1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal), and influenza B were tested at concentrations approximately 2× LOD. No interference in the performance of the PLEX-ID Flu assay was observed in the presence of the potentially interfering substances shown in Table 16 for all positive and negative samples tested.

FluMist®, an intranasal vaccine that contains live attenuated influenza virus, was detected by the PLEX-ID Flu assay. Samples containing FluMist may cause false positive results in the assay.

5.12.4.5 Carryover

Sample carryover on the PLEX-ID System was evaluated using high target concentrations (1 × 105 viral genomes per mL) of influenza A and influenza B alternately loaded with negative sample rack, representing a worst-case, checkerboard configuration. Following 5 independent isolations, no positive results were reported among the 120 negative samples tested, resulting in an observed carryover rate of 0% (0/120).

5.12.4.6 Inclusivity

Multiple viral strains representing temporal and geographical diversity for each influenza type and subtype were tested with the PLEX-ID Flu assay. The samples were targeted at concentrations at approximately 2× LOD. The results reported for each strain tested matched the expected result in 3 out of 3 replicates, as shown in Table 17.

Indications of Use Statement

510(k) Number: K121003

4.0

Device Name: PLEX-ID Flu

Indications for Use for the PLEX-ID Flu:

The PLEX-ID Flu assay is a qualitative nucleic acid in vitro diagnostic test intended for the detection and differentiation of influenza A H1N1 (2009), influenza A H1N1 (seasonal), influenza A H3N2 (seasonal) and influenza B viral nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients symptomatic for respiratory tract infection. The PLEX-ID Flu assay is intended for use on the PLEX-ID System (version 1.2) as an aid in the diagnosis of influenza infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information. This assay is not intended to detect influenza C virus.

Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions.

If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.
