This in vitro diagnostic test is intended to aid in the differential diagnosis of respiratory syncytial virus and human metapneumovirus infections. This test is not intended to differentiate the four genetic sub-lineages of hMPV. Negative results do not preclude RSV or hMPV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other patient management decisions.
Device Description
The Quidel Molecular RSV + 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 either the Cepheid SmartCycler® II or the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast DX. Identification of RSV and hMPV and the PRC occurs by the use of target-specific primers and fluorescent-labeled probes that hybridize to conserved regions in the genomes of RSV and hMPV and the PRC.

Device Description

The Quidel Molecular RSV + 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 either the Cepheid SmartCycler® II or the Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast DX. Identification of RSV and hMPV and the PRC occurs by the use of target-specific primers and fluorescent-labeled probes that hybridize to conserved regions in the genomes of RSV and hMPV and the PRC.

The following is a summary of the procedure:

  • I. Sample Collection: Obtain nasal or nasopharyngeal swabs specimens using standard techniques from symptomatic patients. Transport, store, and process these specimens according to established laboratory procedures.'
    1. Nucleic Acid Extraction: Extract Nucleic Acids from the specimens with the NucliSENS® easyMAG® System following the manufacturer's instructions and using the appropriate reagents (See Materials Required but Not Provided).

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

    1. Rehydration of Master Mix: Rehydrate the lyophilized Master Mix using the Rehydration Solution. The Master Mix contains oligonucleotide primers, fluorophore and quencher-labeled probes targeting conserved regions of RSV and hMPV, as well as the process control sequence.
    1. Nucleic Acid Amplification and Detection: Add 15 µL of the rehydrated Master Mix to each reaction tube or plate well. Then add 5 uL of extracted nucleic acids (specimen with PRC) to the plate well or appropriately labeled reaction tube. Place the tube or plate into either the SmartCycler® II or 7500 Fast Dx instruments, respectively.

Once the reaction tube or plate is added to the instrument, initiate the assay protocol. This protocol initiates reverse transcription of the RNA targets generating complementary DNA, and the subsequent amplification of the target amplicons occurs. The Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay is based on TagMan® 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 50 cycles on the SmartCycler® II or 35 cycles on the ABI 7500 Fast Dx, the sample is reported as positive for the detected nucleic acid.

Performance characteristics of the Ouidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay using the Cepheid SmartCycler® II instrument and the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx platform were established during a prospective study during the 2012 respiratory virus season (January to March 2012). Samples used for this study were fresh (414) and frozen (600) swab specimens that were collected for routine respiratory virus testing four sites across the United States. A single specimen was collected per patient and tested (direct specimen DFA and culture with DFA) for RSV immediately after collection. The specimens were extracted with the bioMériuex easyMAG and tested with Ouidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay. Aliquots of each specimen were sent to a central location for testing with a FDA Cleared hMPV molecular test.

One thousand and fourteen (1014) specimens were tested by both the subject and comparative methods for RSV. Five specimens were contaminated in cell culture (0.5%). Results for the remaining 1009 specimens are detailed in the table below.
Nine hundred and sixty (960) specimens were tested by both the subject and comparative devices for hMPV (the comparator device was unavailable to complete comparison testing). Nine specimens were invalid in the comparative device (0.9%). Results for the remaining 951 specimens are detailed in the table below.

Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx

One thousand and fourteen (1014) specimens were tested by both the subject and comparative methods for RSV. Five specimens were contaminated in cell culture (0.5%). Two specimens were invalid in the subject methods (0.2%). Results for the remaining 1,007 specimens are detailed in the table below.
Nine hundred and fifty seven (957) specimens were tested by both the subject and comparative devices for hMPV (the comparator device was unavailable to complete comparison testing). Nine (9) specimens were invalid in the comparative device (0.9%). Two (2) specimens were invalid in the subject methods (0.2%). Results for the remaining 946 specimens are detailed in the table below.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Analytical Performance:

Reproducibility:

The reproducibility of the Quidel Molecular Influenza RSV + hMPV assay was evaluated at 3 laboratory sites. Reproducibility was assessed using a panel of 4 simulated samples that include medium (5x LoD) and low (2x LoD), high negative (0.3x LoD) RSV, hMPV and negative samples. Panels and controls were tested at each site by 2 operators for 5 days (triplicate testing x 2 operators x 5 days x 3 sites = 90 results per level for each virus). The LoD values are based on the values obtained in the LoD study. The panels and controls were extracted using the bioMérieux easyMAG system and tested on the Cepheid SmartCycler® II and the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx.

Limit of Detection

The analytical sensitivity (limit of detection or LoD) of the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay was determined using quantified (TCID50/mL) cultures of 2 RSV strains and 4 hMPV strains (1 A1, 1 A2, 1 B1, 1B2) serially diluted in negative nasopharyngeal matrix. Each dilution was extracted in replicates of 20 per concentration of virus using the NucliSENS easyMAG System and tested on both the 7500 Fast Dx or Cepheid SmartCycler® II platforms. Analytical sensitivity (LoD) is defined as the lowest concentration at which 95% of all replicates tested positive.

Analytical reactivity (inclusivity)

The reactivity of the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay was evaluated against multiple strains of RSV and hMPV. The clinical panel consisted of 13 RSV strains and 12 hMPV strains (3 A-1, 2 A-2, 3 B-1, and 4 B-2). Each panel member was extracted using the NucliSens easyMAG instrument and tested in triplicate.

Analytical specificity (cross-reactivity)

The analytical specificity of the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay was evaluated by testing a panel consisting of 27 viruses, 24 bacteria and 1 yeast strain representing common respiratory pathogens or flora commonly present in nasopharynx. Samples were extracted using the NucliSENS easyMAG instrument and tested in triplicate. Analytical specificity of the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay was 100%.

Gen-Probe Prodesse ProFlu+ (K092500)

The ProFluTM+ 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.

1

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.

Gen-Probe Prodesse Pro hMPV+ (K082688)

The Pro hMPV+ Assay is a Real Time RT-PCR in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) nucleic acid isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal swab (NP) specimens obtained from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of acute respiratory infection. This assay targets a highly conserved region of the Nucleocapsid gene of hMPV. The detection of hMPV nucleic acid from symptomatic patients aids in the diagnosis of human respiratory hMPV infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. This test is not intended to differentiate the four genetic sub-lineages of hMPV.

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

The data from the combined sites indicates that the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay generates reproducible results for RSV and hMPV when tested with the Cepheid SmartCycler® Il and the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx.

Limit of Detection

The analytical sensitivity (limit of detection or LoD) of the Quidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay was determined using quantified (TCID50/mL) cultures of 2 RSV strains and 4 hMPV strains (1 A1, 1 A2, 1 B1, 1B2) serially diluted in negative nasopharyngeal matrix. Each dilution was extracted in replicates of 20 per concentration of virus using the NucliSENS easyMAG System and tested on both the 7500 Fast Dx or Cepheid SmartCycler® II platforms. Analytical sensitivity (LoD) is defined as the lowest concentration at which 95% of all replicates tested positive.

Clinical Performance:

Performance characteristics of the Ouidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay using the Cepheid SmartCycler® II instrument and the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx platform were established during a prospective study during the 2012 respiratory virus season (January to March 2012). Samples used for this study were fresh (414) and frozen (600) swab specimens that were collected for routine respiratory virus testing four sites across the United States. A single specimen was collected per patient and tested (direct specimen DFA and culture with DFA) for RSV immediately after collection. The specimens were extracted with the bioMériuex easyMAG and tested with Ouidel Molecular RSV + hMPV assay. Aliquots of each specimen were sent to a central location for testing with a FDA Cleared hMPV molecular test.
