Intended Use

The GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit is intended for the quantitative in vitro determination of human biotinidase activity in blood specimens dried on filter paper as an aid in screening newborns for biotinidase deficiency using the GSP instrument.

Device Description

The GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit contains sufficient reagents to perform 1152 assays. The GSP Neonatal Biotinidase test system measures biotinidase activity, combining an enzyme reaction with a solid phase time-resolved immunofluorescence assay. The GSP Neonatal Biotinidase assay is based on the ability of the biotinidase enzyme to cleave the amide bond in Eu-labeled biotin. The enzyme reaction is stopped by addition of streptavidin which has high affinity for biotin (either Eu-labeled or free biotin). The streptavidin-biotin complexes are captured by the solid phase monoclonal antibody directed against streptavidin. DELFIA Inducer dissociates the molecules into the solution where the europium fluorescence is measured. The measured fluorescence is inversely proportional to the biotinidase activity of the sample.

The GSP method initially classified 19/20 as positive, with one initially negative specimen testing positive in 4 repeat tests.

Study Details

  1. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance:

    • Clinical Study Test Set: 2008 specimens (1988 routine newborn screening specimens and 20 retrospective confirmed biotinidase deficiency specimens).
    • Provenance: This information is not explicitly stated, but it can be inferred that these are human blood specimens from newborn screening programs. The "retrospective confirmed biotinidase deficiency specimens" suggest historical data, implying a retrospective study design for these specific samples. The routine screening specimens would be prospective in nature from a screening program. No specific country of origin is mentioned.
  2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

    • The document does not explicitly state the number of experts or their qualifications for establishing the ground truth.
    • For the "retrospective confirmed biotinidase deficiency specimens," the ground truth is implied to be established through confirmation methods for biotinidase deficiency, but no details on expert involvement are provided.
  3. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

    • The document does not describe any specific adjudication method for establishing the ground truth of the clinical test set. The term "confirmed biotinidase deficiency specimens" implies that a definitive diagnosis was reached, but the process is not detailed.
    • For the one discrepant clinical case, it was subjected to "multiple (4) repeat tests." This could be considered a form of internal adjudication/re-testing rather than external expert consensus.
  4. If a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

    • No MRMC or human-in-the-loop study was conducted or described. This device is an in vitro diagnostic kit, meaning it is an automated assay, not an AI assisting human readers. The comparison is between the new automated device and a predicate manual method.
  5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

    • Yes, the core of the clinical study involved evaluating the performance of the GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit (an automated instrument-based assay) as a standalone device in comparison to the existing manual predicate device. The results are reported as direct comparisons between the two methods on the same samples.
  6. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

    • The ground truth for the clinical study was based on the classification of specimens as "biotinidase deficient" or "normal." For the 20 known deficient specimens, the ground truth was "retrospective confirmed biotinidase deficiency." For the routine screening specimens, it is implied that the predicate device's result (manual Neonatal Biotinidase method) served as a comparative reference, which itself would have a ground truth based on established clinical diagnostic criteria for biotinidase deficiency. The cut-offs used for both devices (0.5th percentile for GSP and 30% of mean + 2SD for the predicate) are tied to population distributions expected for the condition.
  7. The sample size for the training set:

    • The document describes the GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit as a diagnostic assay, and its development would typically involve internal validation and optimization data. The provided text, being a 510(k) summary, primarily focuses on the test set performance to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
    • There is no explicit mention of a separate "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models, as this is an in vitro diagnostic kit based on an enzymatic reaction. The calibrators and controls used in the kit are standardized and prepared from human whole blood, aiding in the assay's calibration and ongoing quality control during operation.
  8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

    • Not applicable in the context of a "training set" for a traditional in vitro diagnostic assay.
    • For the calibrators, they were "calibrated against in-house primary calibrators (dried blood spots, stored at -80 to -60°C) prepared using adult human blood (endogenous biotinidase activity in serum) and washed red blood cells as blood matrices." This describes how the reference values for the assay's internal calibration curve are established.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The kit contains the following components:

Calibrators have been prepared from human whole blood using ProClin 300 as preservative. The biotinidase calibrators' activities range from 10 U/dl to 325 U/dL. As no internationally accepted reference material or a reference method for the determination of biotinidase activity is available, the calibrators have been calibrated against in-house primary calibrators (dried blood spots, stored at -80 to -60°C) prepared using adult human blood (endogenous biotinidase activity in serum) and washed red blood cells as blood matrices.

Controls have been prepared from human whole blood using ProClin 300 as preservative. The low control is approximately 40.0 U/dL and the high control approximately 160 U/dL.

All human source materials used in the preparation of kit components were tested and found to be negative for hepatitis B surface antigen, anti-hepatitis C and anti-HIV 1 and 2 derivatives by FDA approved methods.

Biotinidase Substrate Reagent - 3 ready-to-use vials, 2.8 ml each Biotinidase SA Reagent - 3 ready-to-use vials, 2.8 ml each Assay Buffer - 3 bottles, 120 ml each Anti-SA Microtitration Strips - 12 plates

Summary of Non-Clinical Studies:

The variation of the GSP Neonatal Biotinidase assay was determined using dried blood spot samples, 3 kit lots, and 3 GSP instruments. The study was performed in 27 runs over 20 days, each run consisting of 2 plates with 4 replicates per sample. Total number of measurements was 216 per sample. Total variation ranged from 7.5 to 12.7 %CV.

The limit of blank, detection and quantity were determined according to the CLSI guideline EP17-A.The Limit of Blank (LoB) for GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit is 9.5 U/dL, defined as the 95th percentile of a distribution of blank samples (n=150). The Limit of Detection (LoD) is 14.8

3

{3}------------------------------------------------

U/dL based on 360 determinations of five low level samples. The Limit of Quantitation (LoO) is 14.8 U/dL, defined as the lowest activity with a total CV equal or less than 20%.

Linearity was determined in accordance with CLSI document EP6-A. For GSP Neonatal Biotinidase, the method has been demonstrated to be linear throughout the measuring range (from 14.8 U/dL to 325 U/dL). Recovery cannot be determined as biotinidase is not commercially available in pure form.

Ampicillin (1.4 mg/dL and above), sulfisoxazole (7.5 mg/dL and above) at low biotinidase activity levels (35 U/dL) and ampicillin (2.8 mg/dL) at high biotinidase activity levels (150 U/dL) were found to interfere with this test by increasing measured biotinidase activity by 19.9%, 32.1% and 15.6%, respectively. Elevated ampicillin and suffisoxazole levels near the biotinidase cut-off did not exhibit a significant effect (<15%).

Glutathione levels above normal (> 30 mg/dL) can interfere with this test by increasing biotinidase activity by 16.1% or more. This could result in the misclassification of a patient with a biotinidase result near the cut-off value as 'normal' when in fact the patient should be classified as 'deficient'. A patient with known or clinically suspected elevated blood glutathione concentration (>30 mg/dL)should be screened with an alternative method and confirmed according to local requirements for follow-up testing.

Unconjugated bilirubin (10 mg/dL) added to whole blood at low biotinidase activity levels (35 U/dL) were found to interfere with this test by increasing measured biotinidase activity by 18.7%. Elevated unconjugated bilirubin level (20 mg/dL) near the biotinidase cut-off did not exhibit a significant effect (<15%).

Conjugated bilirubin (2.5 mg/dL and above) and triglyceride (250 mg/dL and above) added to whole blood were found to interfere with this test by decreasing measured biotinidase activity by 26.0% and 15.7%, respectively. Elevated conjugated bilirubin (2.5 mg/dL and above) and triglyceride levels (250 mg/dL and above)may cause a false positive screening result for a specimen with measured biotinidase activity near the cut-off.

The following substances were found not to interfere at concentration indicated: adrenocorticotropic hormone (15 ng/dL), ascorbic acid (3 mg/dL), biotin (500 ng/dL), Gammaglobulin (3 g/dL), gentamicin sulphate (0.5 mg/dL), hemoglobin (1.6 g/dL), human serum albumin (6 g/dL), kanamycin sulphate (3 mg/dL), penicillin G (25 mg/dL), phenytoin (2,5 mg/dL), phenobarbital (5.5 mg/dL), sulfmethoxazole (20 mg/dL), trimethoprim (2 mg/dL), valporic acid (19 mg/dL), and vitamin K1 (0.1 mg/dL).

Summary of Clinical Studies:

The 3307-001U GSP Neonatal Biotinidase kit was compared to the 3018-0010/3018-001B Neonatal Biotinidase kit in a routine screening laboratory by measuring the biotinidase activity in a total of 2008 specimens. These included routine newborn screening specimens (n = 1988) and retrospective confirmed biotinidase deficiency specimens (n = 20).

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

The results for the screening performance data based on the predicate's cut-off of 30% of mean + 2SD manual Neonatal Biotinidase method classified all 20 biotinidase deficient specimen as screening positive. The GSP Neonatal Biotinidase method used cut-off based on 0.50 percentile and classified 19 specimens as screening positive and 1 specimen as screening negative based on the initial test result. In multiple (4) repeat tests this specimen was positive at all cut-offs. Duplicate punches in the same microtiter well (due to static electricity) were concluded to be the potential cause for the initial false negative results are shown below.
