Intended Use
The artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit is an in vitro real-time PCR DNA amplification assay performed on the QIAsymphony RGQ MDx system for the direct qualitative detection and differentiation of herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) DNA in genital or oral vesicular lesions from male and female patients suspected of HSV infection. The assay is intended for use as an aid in diagnosis of HSV infection in symptomatic patients. Warning: The artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit is not FDA-cleared for use with cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or for prenatal screening.
Device Description
The artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit is an in vitro PCR assay for the qualitative detection and differentiation of nucleic acids encoding the Glycoprotein D and UL30 genes isolated from HSV-1 and HSV-2 DNA present in genital or oral lesions from male and female patients. Samples are extracted and prepared for PCR using the QIAsymphony SP/AS instrument with the QIAsymphony DSP Virus/Pathogen Mini Kit. Amplification and detection are carried out using the artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit with the Rotor-Gene O MDx (RGO MDx) and Rotor-Gene AssayManager software. The presence of a HSV-1 or HSV-2 target sequence is indicated by the fluorescent signal generated through the use of fluorescently labeled oligonucleotide probes. The probes do not generate a signal unless they are specifically bound to the amplified product. The amplification cycle at which fluorescent signal is detected by the RGQ MDx is inversely proportional to the HSV-1 and/or HSV-2 target concentration present in the original specimen. A plasmid construct containing DNA unrelated to HSV-1 and HSV-2 is introduced into each specimen during sample preparation to serve as an internal control. Run as a separate control, the positive control serves to demonstrate that the HSV-1/2 PCR reagents are functional. In addition, the positive control functions as a process control, to demonstrate that sample preparation has proceeded correctly during the run.
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on standard real-time PCR technology and data analysis based on fluorescent signal detection and cycle threshold (Ct) values. There is no mention of AI or ML algorithms being used for data processing, interpretation, or diagnosis.

No.
The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) test intended to aid in the diagnosis of HSV infection by detecting viral DNA, not to treat or cure the condition.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states, "The assay is intended for use as an aid in diagnosis of HSV infection in symptomatic patients." This indicates its purpose is to help clinicians diagnose a medical condition.

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) kit that includes reagents and is performed on specific hardware (QIAsymphony SP/AS instrument, Rotor-Gene Q MDx) with accompanying software. It is not solely software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The very first sentence explicitly states "The artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit is an in vitro real-time PCR DNA amplification assay...". It also describes its use for the "direct qualitative detection and differentiation of herpes simplex virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) DNA in genital or oral vesicular lesions from male and female patients suspected of HSV infection." This clearly indicates it's used to test samples taken from the human body outside of the body to provide information for diagnosis.
  • Device Description: The description further reinforces this by detailing how the assay works on samples (extraction, PCR amplification, detection) and mentions it's an "in vitro PCR assay".
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies involve testing human samples (genital and oral lesions) and comparing the results to a reference method (ELVIS viral culture), which is typical for validating an IVD.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device" (K100336; Eragen Biosciences MultiCode®-RTx Herpes Simplex Virus 1 & 2 Kit) is a strong indicator that this device is being submitted for regulatory clearance as an IVD, as predicate devices are used to demonstrate substantial equivalence for new IVDs.

All of these points align with the definition and characteristics of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 866.3305 Herpes simplex virus serological assays.

(a)
Identification. Herpes simplex virus serological assays are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in various serological tests to identify antibodies to herpes simplex virus in serum. Additionally, some of the assays consist of herpes simplex virus antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent assays) used to identify herpes simplex virus directly from clinical specimens or tissue culture isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by herpes simplex viruses and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Herpes simplex viral infections range from common and mild lesions of the skin and mucous membranes to a severe form of encephalitis (inflammation of the brain). Neonatal herpes virus infections range from a mild infection to a severe generalized disease with a fatal outcome.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II (special controls). The special control for the device is FDA's revised guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Herpes Simplex Virus Types 1 and 2 Serological Assays.” For availability of the guidance revised document, see § 866.1(e).

Analytical Sensitivity (Limit of Detection)

The limit of detection (LoD) was assessed for the artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit using 2 strains of HSV-1 (MacIntyre and Isolate #15 from Zeptometrix™ Corporation. (ZMC)) and two strains of HSV-2 (MS and Isolate #2 from Zeptometrix™ Corporation). The LoD is defined as the HSV titer (TCID95% CI | | | | |

HSV-2 Oral Retrospective Sample Study and Contrived Sample Study:

A retrospective study was conducted using oral samples for HSV2 detection. A total of 38 oral retrospective specimens were tested with the artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx assay and ELVIS HSV ID and D3 Typing Test System. There were no HSV-2 positive specimens detected in 38 oral specimens.

A contrived specimen study was performed to provide additional performance data for detection of HSV-2 in oral samples. A panel of seventy (70) individual samples consisting of 15 HSV-1/2 negative oral samples, 10 HSV-1 positive oral samples and 45 HSV-1/2 negative oral samples spiked with HSV-2 at a concentration from 3X LoD to 1000X LoD and tested with the artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit. The HSV-1 positive oral samples and HSV-1/2 negative oral samples obtained from the method comparison study were used to make the panel. All samples were randomized and blinded to the operator prior to testing. HSV-2 was detected in all 45 contrived samples at all concentrations tested, supporting the claim for detection of HSV-2 in oral samples by the artus HSV-1/2 QS-RGQ MDx Kit.
