2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set

  • Sample Size for Method Comparison (vs. HPLC): 105 samples
  • Sample Size for Method Comparison (vs. Predicate): 103 samples
  • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated whether retrospective or prospective, nor the country of origin of the data. The context of a 510(k) submission for an in vitro diagnostic usually implies controlled laboratory studies.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth (Test Set)

  • This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay, where "ground truth" is typically established by reference methods or instruments rather than expert human interpretation of images/cases.
  • For the method comparison studies, the "ground truth" was established by comparing the device's results to:
    • HPLC (High-Performance Liquid Chromatography): This is a gold standard analytical chemistry technique for quantifying carbamazepine. The document does not specify human experts or their qualifications for interpreting HPLC results; the HPLC itself serves as the reference.
    • Abbott Aeroset® Carbamazepine Assay (K993028): This is the legally marketed predicate device, used as a comparative reference.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not applicable. As described above, "ground truth" for this type of device is established by instrumental reference methods (HPLC) or comparison to a predicate device, rather than human adjudication of cases.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No, a MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is relevant for imaging devices or AI algorithms that assist human readers in making diagnostic interpretations. The Abbott Carbamazepine Assay is an in vitro diagnostic for quantitative measurement of a drug in bodily fluids and does not involve human readers interpreting "cases" in the same way.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

  • Yes, a standalone performance assessment was conducted. The "device performance" metrics listed in the summary (Functional Sensitivity, Precision, Spike Recovery, Method Comparison, Linearity, Stability, etc.) directly reflect the performance of the assay system (reagents plus ARCHITECT cSystems instrument) without human-in-the-loop interpretation. The device's output is a quantitative measurement, not an interpretation requiring human assistance.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The ground truth primarily used for evaluating the device's performance was:
    • Reference method data (HPLC): For accuracy and recovery studies.
    • Predicate device data (Abbott Aeroset® Carbamazepine Assay): For method comparison to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
    • Internal analytical standards and controls: For precision, linearity, and stability studies.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" sample size. For an in vitro diagnostic assay, development typically involves extensive characterization and optimization of reagents and assay parameters rather than training a machine learning algorithm with a distinct dataset. The "development" or "optimization" samples are integral to method formulation, but aren't typically referred to as a "training set" in the context of device submission for this type of product.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • Not applicable / Not explicitly described as a "training set" with established ground truth in the traditional sense. For IVD assays, the process involves calibrating the assay using known concentrations of the analyte (carbamazepine calibrators) that serve as a reference for quantifying unknown samples. These calibrators and controls have precisely defined concentrations, which act as the "ground truth" for establishing the assay's curve and performance characteristics during development and ongoing use. The development process itself ensures the assay yields accurate results against these known standards.

ProprietaryNameAbbott Carbamazepine AssayAbbott Aeroset® Carbamazepine Assay(K993028)
Intended UseThe Carbamazepine assay is used for thein vitro quantitative measurement ofcarbamazepine in human serum or plasmaon the ARCHITECT cSystems.The assay is intended for use in thequantitative analysis of Carbamazepine inhuman serum or plasma.
Test PrincipleThe Carbamazepine assay is ahomogeneous particle-enhancedturbidimetric inhibition immunoassay(PETINIA) used for the analysis ofcarbamazepine in serum or plasma. Theassay is based on competition betweendrug in the sample and drug coated onto amicroparticle for antibody binding sites ofthe carbamazepine antibody reagent. Thecarbamazepine-coated microparticlereagent is rapidly agglutinated in thepresence of the anti-carbamazepineantibody reagent and in the absence of anycompeting drug in the sample. The rate ofabsorbance change is measuredphotometrically, and is directly proportionalto the rate of agglutination of the particles.When a sample containing carbamazepineis added, the agglutination reaction ispartially inhibited, slowing down the rate ofabsorbance change. A concentration-dependent classic agglutination inhibitioncurve can be obtained, with maximum rateof agglutination at the lowestcarbamazepine concentration and thelowest agglutination rate at the highestcarbamazepine concentration.The Carbamazepine assay is ahomogeneous enzyme immunoassaytechnique used for the analysis ofcarbamazepine in biological fluids. Theassay is based on competition for antibodybinding sites between the analyte drug inthe specimen and exogenous drug labeledwith the enzyme glucose-6-phosphatedehydrogenase (G6PDH). Since G6PDHactivity decreases upon binding to theantibody, the concentration of drug in thespecimen can be measured in terms ofenzyme activity. Active G6PDH reducesnicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) toNADH, resulting in an absorbance changethat is measured spectrophotometrically.Endogenous serum G6PDH does notinterfere because the coenzyme NADfunctions only with the bacterial(Leuconostoc mesenteroides) enzymeemployed in the assay.

Summary of Performance Testing

Functional Sensitivity (LOQ)

Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) determines the lowest concentration which results a CV of inter assay precision at 7% that has been measured over an extended period. The results demonstrate that the LOQ is 1.9 µg/mL and meet design acceptance criteria.

Precision

Carbamazepine samples tested for precision following a CLSI protocol. In the study, the total run %CV was less than or equal to 6.3% and meets design acceptance criteria.

Spike Recovery

Neqative serum samples were spiked with carbamazepine at concentrations across the assay range. All of the samples recover within ±10% or ±0.4 µg/mL error of the HPLC results.

Method Comparison

Samples were tested in the Carbamazepine Assay and compared to HPLC and Aeroset Carbamazepine Assay (K993028). The assay correlated well with HPLC as follows: y = 1.093x + 0.372, R = 0.9584, n=105. The assay also correlated well with the Aeroset Carbamazepine Assay as follows: y = 0.905x + 0.564, R = 0.9675, n = 103.

Matrix Comparison

The following matrices were tested and may be suitable for use in the Carbamazepine Assay: serum in glass. serum in plastic, serum separator tube (SST) in plastic, plasma with sodium fluoride/potassium oxalate in plastic, plasma with sodium heparin in plastic and glass, plasma with lithium heparin in plastic with or without gel, plasma with K3 EDTA in glass and plastic, plasma with K2 EDTA in plastic, and sodium citrate in plastic and glass.

Specificity

The assay showed minimal to no cross reactivity to other medications potentially administered with carbamazepine. The assay also showed minimal to no interference to endogenous substances up to the concentrations tested.

Linearity

Samples were tested to demonstrate linearity throughout the assay range. Results demonstrate that the assay performs in a linear fashion from 0.5 to 20 µg/mL.

Onboard Stability

Using the Abbott Architect cSystem, the reagents were stable onboard for up to 45 days.

Standard Curve Calibration Stability

Using the Abbott Architect cSystem, the standard curve calibration was stable for up to 7 days.

Reagent Shelf Life Stability

Studies showed that the reagents will be stable at 2-8°C for 24 months.

{4}------------------------------------------------

Conclusion

Substantial equivalence of the Abbott Carbamazepine Assay to the previously cleared Abbott Aeroset® Carbamazepine Assay (K993028) has been demonstrated through performance testing (Section 18) to verify that the device functions as intended and design specifications have been satisfied.
