Device Description
Test Principle:
The Great Basin Portrait™ GBS Assay on the PA500 Portrait™ Analyzer System utilizes automated hot-start PCR technology to amplify target nucleic acid sequences that are detected usinq species-specific S. agalactiae DNA hybridization probes immobilized on a modified silicon chip surface.
Genomic DNA is extracted from microbial cells and diluted to reduce potential inhibitors of the PCR reaction. In a duplex PCR, biotin-labeled primers enable amplification of specific nucleic acid sequences within a unique and conserved region of the cfb gene (CAMP factor) for identification of S. agalactiae species and to an additional sample processing control (SPC) bacterial construct. Following PCR, biotin-labeled, amplified target DNA sequences are hybridized to sequence specific capture probes immobilized on the silicon chip surface, then incubated with anti-biotin antibody conjugated to the horseradish peroxidase enzyme (HRP). The unbound conjugate is removed by washing and tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) is added to produce a colored precipitate at the location of the probe/target sequence complex. The resulting signal is detected by the automated Portrait™ Optical Reader within the PA500 Portrait™ Analyzer System.
Test Device:
The Great Basin PA500 Portrait Analyzer System is a fully automated system that includes the Portrait Analyzer, single-use Portrait GBS Assay Test Cartridges, and the Portrait data analysis software. The PA500 Portrait Analyzer System is designed to perform automated sample preparation, PCR, and optical chip-based detection with integrated data analysis in approximately 90 minutes. The Great Basin Portrait™ GBS Assay utilizes automated hot-start PCR technology to amplify target nucleic acid sequences that are detected using species-specific S. agalactiae DNA hybridization probes immobilized on a modified silicon chip surface. The PA500 Portrait Analyzer System was recently granted clearance for use with the Portrait™ Toxigenic C. difficile Assay (DEN120013).

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
H. Performance Data - Analytical Studies
a. Analytical Sensitivity: The Limit of Detection (LoD) of the Portrait GBS Assay was assessed using ATCC strain BAA1177 (serotype Ia) and ATCC strain 12403 (serotype III). LoD for BAA1177 was 5x10E3 CFU/mL (2.4 CFU/PCR) and for 12403 was 8x10E3 CFU/mL (3.9 CFU/PCR), with 20/20 positive replicates for both.
b. Analytical Reactivity (Inclusivity): Tested 14 additional GBS strains (representing 11 serotypes) at approximately 2X LoD (1.6x10^4 CFU/mL). All GBS strains were correctly identified as positive (3/3 for most strains).
c. Analytical Specificity (Exclusivity): Assessed potential cross-reactivity with human DNA and 60 non-target microflora (51 bacterial, 5 yeast, 4 viral, human genomic DNA). All resulted in 'Group B Streptococcus NEGATIVE' calls.
d. Microbial Interference: Evaluated interference by the same panel of human DNA and 60 non-target microflora spiked into positive samples at low concentrations (approximately 2X LoD). None interfered with detection, except for Enterococcus durans which interfered with ATCC 12403 at 2X LoD, but not at 3X LoD.
e. Interfering Substances (Chemical Interference): Tested 21 different substances spiked into positive samples at low concentrations (approximately 2X LoD). None of the chemical substances interfered with the detection.
f. Carry-over/Cross-Contamination Study: High titered GBS samples (ATCC 12403) and true negative samples were alternately run on six different Portrait Analyzers. All calls were in concordance with expected results, showing no evidence of carry-over or cross-contamination.
g. Reproducibility: Performed in-house and at two external clinical sites using blind-coded panels and six different GBS Assay cartridge lots over 5 non-consecutive days with two runs per day and three replicates per sample. Results for the reproducibility studies were within the expected percent agreement across all three sites, with one exception at Site 1 for True Negatives (86.7% agreement due to 4/30 positive calls, attributed to possible workspace contamination) compared to 100% at other sites.

Analytical Sensitivity a.
The Limit of Detection (LoD) of the Portrait GBS Assay for Group B Streptocccus was assessed and confirmed by using strains of two different serotypes: ATCC strain BAA1177(serotype la) and ATCC strain 12403(serotype III). Each strain was spiked into negative LIM broth matrix and then serially diluted. Testing was performed on 20 replicates for each strain to establish the following LoDs in Table 1. For ATCC strain BAA1177, the LoD is reported as 5x103 CFU/mL (2.4 CFU/PCR) and for ATCC strain 12403 the LoD is 8x103 CFU/mL (3.9 CFU/PCR).

The Portrait GBS Assay was further evaluated for interference by the same panel of human DNA and 60 non-target microflora (51 bacterial, 5 yeast, and 4 viral stock strains; Table 3). The same high concentrations of potentially interfering DNA and microorganisms were spiked into negative clinical LIM broth matrix containing Group B Streptoccus cells at low positive concentrations of approximately 2X LoD, 1x10* CFU/mL for ATCC strain BAA1177 (serotype la) and 1.6x10* CFU/mL for ATCC strain 12403 A minimum of three replicate Portrait GBS Assays were performed for each of the (serotype III). human DNA and bacterial, yeast, and viral strains tested. With the exception of Enterococcus durans, none of the potentially interfering DNA or microflora interfered with the detection of either of the Group B Streptococcus strains, resulting in 'Group B Streptococcus POSITIVE' calls as expected. Interference was observed for GBS strain ATCC 12403 at 2X LoD (1.6x104 CFU/mL) in the presence of 106 CFU/mL E. durans, but not when the GBS strain concentration was increased to 3X LoD (2.4x104 CFU/mL).
e. Interfering Substances (Chemical Interference)
The Portrait GBS Assay was evaluated for chemical interference by the following panel of 21 different substances (Table 4). Substances were spiked into a negative clinical LIM broth matrix containing Group B Streptococcus cells at low positive concentrations of approximately 2X LoD, 1x10° CFU/mL for ATCC strain BAA1177 (serotype la) and 1.6x10* CFU/mL for ATCC strain 12403 (serotype III).. A minimum of three replicate assays was performed with none of the chemical substances interfering with the detection of either Group B Streptococcus strain resulting in 'Group B Streptococcus POSITIVE' calls as expected.

f. Carry-over/Cross-Contamination Study
9
A study was performed to assess the carry-over/cross-contamination of the Portrait GBS Assay by alternatively testing high titered Group B Streptococus samples (ATCC 12403) spiked into negative clinical LIM broth matrix at 5.6x10' CFU/mL followed by true negative samples comprised of only negative clinical LIM broth matrix. By running a series of alternating runs of high titered and negative samples on multiple Portrait Analyzers, any possible carry-over/cross-contamination would be detected.
Table 5 lists the alternating pattern of high positives (HP) and true negatives (TN) performed on six different Portrait Analyzers. All of the 'calls' were in concordance with expected 'calls'. Therefore, there was no evidence of carry-over or cross-contamination in any of the tests.

q. Reproducibility
For the Reproducibility studies of the Portrait GBS Assay, a panel of five prepared samples was tested consisting of two Group B Streptococcus strains: ATCC strain BAA1177 (serotype la), and ATCC strain 12403 (serotype III) at a 'Moderate Positive' concentration (3X LoD; 1.5x10* CFU/mL for ATCC strain BAA1177 and 2.4x10* CFU/mL for ATCC strain 12403) and a 'Low Positive' concentration (1.5X LoD; 7.5x103 CFU/mL for ATCC strain BAA1177 and 1.2x104 CFU/mL for ATCC strain 12403). These samples were made by spiking in the respective cultures into a neqative clinical LIM broth matrix. In addition, a True Negative sample consisting of only a neqative clinical LIM broth matrix was tested.
The Reproducibility studies were performed in-house and at two external clinical sites using blindcoded panels and six different GBS Assay cartridge lots. At each site, these studies were performed over the course of 5 non-consecutive days. For each day, two runs were performed with three replicates of each sample per run on each day. A minimum of two operators performed the runs at each site.
Table 6 summarizes the cumulative data for the Portrait GBS Assay across all three sites for the Reproducibility studies. Results for the Reproducibility studies of the Portrait GBS Assay were within the expected percent agreement across all three sites. The only exception to this was at Site 1 where 4 out of the 30 True Negatives run resulted in Group B Streptococcus POSITIVE calls instead of NEGATIVE calls. By definition, the True Neqative samples consist of only neqative clinical LIM broth matrix and therefore should not result in a positive call. Due to the high sensitivity of molecular-based PCR assays, such as the Portrait GBS Assay, laboratory workspace contamination is a possibility. The other two sites did not experience any issues with the True Negative samples run during this study, resulting in 100% agreement, as expected.

Table 6. Results of the Reproducibility Studies
- For Moderate Positive and Low Positive samples, % agreement = 'Group B Streptococcus POSITIVE' calls/total runs.
For True Negative samples, % agreement = 'Group B Streptococcus NEGATIVE' calls/total runs.
‡ This reflects 29 runs not 30 because an 'Invalid' run in this case was not re-run.
I. Performance Data - Prospective Clinical Studies
The clinical performance of the Portrait GBS Assay was determined in three sites in the United States. 448 compliant clinical samples (18-29 hr LIM broth enrichment) were run over the course of four months to evaluate the performance of the Portrait GBS Assay in comparison to the reference GBS clinical microbiology protocol. Samples were obtained according to the established quidelines for the collection of rectal/vaginal swabs from antepartum women (35 – 37 weeks) and enriched in LIM broth. Results from the studies of all three clinical sites combined are summarized in Table 7. The overall initial sample invalid rate was 2.01%. All invalids reported during the study were resolved upon repeated testing resulting in a final invalid rate of 0%. Overall assay performance vs. GBS culture testing is as follows: Overall assay performance vs. GBS culture testing is as follows: Sensitivity = 97.9%, Specificity = 96.0%, PPV = 86.9%, and NPV = 99.4%.
