Intended Use

Calprest® is a quantitative ELISA for detecting the concentration of fecal calprest@can be used as an in-vitro diagnostic to aid in the diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Disease and ulcerative colitis) and to differentiate IBD from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) in conjunction with other laboratory findings.

Device Description

Calprest® is an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) system with colorimetric detection based on the use of polyclonal antibody against calprotectin present in the diluted sample is bound by the antibody adsorbed to the surface of the plastic well. The enzyme conjugated antibody binds to the captured antigen and subsequently the enzyme catalyzes the conversion of the substrate to a colored product. The intensity of the color is proportional to the amount of conjugate bound, and thus to the amount of captured calprotectin. Concentration of calprotectin in the samples is calculated using the provided standards.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the CALPREST® device, based on the provided 510(k) summary:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria for the CALPREST® device are not explicitly stated as distinct acceptance criteria in the document. Instead, the performance characteristics are presented as the results of the studies conducted. Therefore, I will present the reported performance, which implicitly serves as the "met acceptance criteria" based on the FDA's clearance.

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance

  • Clinical Performance Test Set:
    • Sample Size: 138 samples (98 IBD positive, 40 IBD negative).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). The study appears to be retrospective as it's a diagnostic test comparing against an established diagnosis.
  • Method Comparison Test Set (vs. PhiCal™ Test):
    • Sample Size:
      • "Borderline considered Positive" comparison: 131 samples (78 positive, 53 negative by PhiCalTM). This implies 75 Calprest positive and 56 Calprest negative.
      • "Borderline considered Negative" comparison: 131 samples (47 positive, 84 negative by PhiCalTM). This implies 45 Calprest positive and 86 Calprest negative.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. Likely retrospective samples used for a comparative study.
  • Other Studies (reproducibility, linearity, recovery, interference): Sample sizes vary by study (e.g., 3 samples for extraction reproducibility, multiple pools for linearity and interference, 8 samples for intra/inter-assay precision, 7 samples for recovery), but detailed provenance is not specified.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications (Ground Truth)

  • Clinical Performance: Not explicitly stated in the document. For "aid in the diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD...)" and "differentiate IBD from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)", the ground truth (IBD vs. non-IBD) would typically be established by clinical diagnosis, potentially involving a multidisciplinary team of gastroenterologists, endoscopists, pathologists, etc. However, the exact number and qualifications of experts for defining the IBD status of the 138 samples are not provided.
  • Method Comparison: The ground truth for this comparison is the performance of the predicate device, PhiCal™ Test, which itself is a Fecal calprotectin immunological test system.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe an explicit adjudication method for the clinical performance test set (e.g., for resolving discrepancies in IBD diagnosis). The IBD diagnosis is treated as a given "ground truth" against which the device's performance is measured. For the method comparison, the "ground truth" is the result from the predicate device, PhiCal™ Test, thus no adjudication between readers/methods is mentioned.

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

No Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study is mentioned. This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) test, not an image-based AI device designed for human-in-the-loop assistance in analysis. Therefore, the concept of "how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance" is not applicable in this context.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)

Yes, the studies presented are all standalone performance evaluations of the CALPREST® assay. As an ELISA system, it is an automated laboratory test, and its performance metrics (sensitivity, specificity, precision, linearity, etc.) are inherent to the algorithm/assay itself, without requiring human-in-the-loop adjustments or interpretations beyond standard lab procedures.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Clinical Performance: The ground truth for the clinical performance study is the clinical diagnosis of Inflammatory Bowel Diseases (IBD), presumably established by standard medical diagnostic procedures (e.g., endoscopy, biopsies with pathology, clinical symptoms, and other laboratory findings) in distinguishing IBD from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS).
  • Method Comparison: The ground truth for the method comparison is the results obtained from the predicate device, PhiCal™ Test.
  • Other Studies (reproducibility, linearity, recovery): Ground truth is typically established by reference methods, known concentrations/spikes, or ideal theoretical values.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document is a 510(k) summary for an ELISA-based IVD, not a machine learning or AI algorithm. Therefore, the concept of a "training set" in the context of machine learning does not directly apply here. The device's calibration curves and assay parameters would be established during its development and manufacturing, using various samples (e.g., calibrators, controls, characterized clinical samples) but not typically referred to as a "training set" in the sense of AI. The provided information focuses on validation and clinical performance rather than a separate "training" phase.

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

As mentioned above, the concept of a "training set" in the AI sense is not applicable. The assay's parameters (e.g., standard curve for concentration calculation) are established using known concentrations of calprotectin standards provided with the kit. These standards would have their "ground truth" concentration established through rigorous analytical measurement and manufacturing processes.

Dear Mr. Dunn:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further 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 of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply 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 reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
