Intended Use

The Detectabuse® Liquid control is an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device, for prescription use only, that is intended for use as quality control urine to monitor the precision of laboratory urine toxicology testing procedures for the analytes listed in the package insert.

The Detectabuse® controls are designed to provide an estimation of the precision of a device test system, and to detect and monitor systematic deviations from accuracy resulting from reagent or instrument defects, at levels established by SAMHSA, CAP/AACC, many state programs and device manufacturers QC requirements. The Detectabuse® control urines are compatible with all quantitative and qualitative drug detection procedures which are sufficiently sensitive to detect the control constituents. They should be treated as any "unknown" specimen while following the specific protocol of the assay being used. This product is intended to be used under the supervision of health care professionals as an integral part of good laboratory practices.

Device Description

Each bottle contains stabilized human based urine. Multi-constituent and single constituent positive control urines have been gravimetrically spiked with authentic reference drug standards and/or appropriate metabolites. Negative control urines are certified negative by combination of immunoassay, GC/MS and/or LC/MS for the constituents listed on our target sheets. The products contain less than 1% sodium azide as a preservative. For assays sensitive to sodium azide such as ELISA we substitute a proprietary preservative approved by the manufacturers and DEA.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Open Bottle Stability at 2-8°C | 31 days | Data support the 31-day open bottle stability at 2-8°C for all analytes. All analytes passed specifications, Positive controls tested positive, and Negative controls tested negative. |
| Closed Bottle Stability - Product Shelf Life (2-8°C) | Storage with Oxazepam expected to be negatively affected if >6 months. Other drugs within ±15% of target until expiration. | At 1 year, Oxazepam dropped 15-22%. At 3 years, Oxazepam dropped to 25%. Other drugs were within acceptable criteria of +/-15% from target until expiration date. Recommendation: Do not store Oxazepam-containing controls refrigerated for more than six months. |
| Closed Bottle Stability - Product Shelf Life (-10°C to -20°C) | Up to 4 years. Values within ±15% of target or original test value. | Multiple studies with various lots showed all drugs were stable within 15% of target or original test value between 3 and 4 years of frozen storage. |
| Room Temperature (open vial) Stability - Product Shelf Life (18°C to 21°C) | 31 days. Values within ±18% of target or original test value. | All drugs tested for 31 days were within 18% of target value or original test value. This supports stability during shipping or brief periods of customer error. |
| Value Assignment Criteria | Initially: ±5% agreement (acceptable to ±10% for certain difficult-to-test drugs). For Stat-Skreen® controls, positive controls must test positive and negative controls test negative. Final testing at shelf life: ±10% of target (acceptable to ±15% for certain stability-prone constituents like Oxazepam). | Initial production batch samples sent to 4-5 certified laboratories (at least 3 proficient for specific constituents). If a testing laboratory does not report within 10% of target, the sample is repeated. Once acceptable convergence of values is achieved, the lot is released. Stat-Skreen® controls are also tested on handheld devices against the criteria. Final testing at shelf life (GC/MS or LC/MS) aims for ±10% of target but accepts up to ±15% for specific constituents like Oxazepam. |


2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

The document does not explicitly state a numerical sample size for "test sets" in the context of typical algorithm validation (i.e., a distinct set used for performance evaluation after training). Instead, the performance evaluations are described for stability studies and value assignment verification.

  • Stability Studies: "Multiple bottles of a single lot" were pulled from beginning, middle, and end of production. "Several lots" of controls were selected for the room temperature study. "Multiple studies were conducted using various different lots."
  • Value Assignment: "An initial production batch is sampled as described in the protocol and single or multiple samples (depending on our past experience with the constituent(s), are ordinarily sent out to 4 or 5 certified laboratories..."
  • Data Provenance: The data is generated through laboratory testing of the control materials. The document implies a prospective data collection for stability studies (testing at initial, then at intervals) and for value assignment. The "certified independent laboratories" or "SAMHSA licensed laboratories or CAP inspected and certified" are likely located in the USA, given the FDA submission context.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth

  • Ground Truth Establishment for Value Assignment: "Certified Independent laboratories" test by either GC/MS, LC/MS, or Immunoassay screening. For initial value assignment, "4 or 5 certified laboratories" (or at least 3 for less common constituents) perform testing. The qualifications for personnel performing these tests at "certified" or "SAMHSA licensed" or "CAP inspected and certified" labs are implied to be high, but specific expert qualifications (e.g., "radiologist with 10 years of experience") are not detailed. The expertise is in the analytical methods (GC/MS, LC/MS, immunoassay).

4. Adjudication Method

The adjudication method for value assignment resembles a form of consensus or agreement-based approach.

  • "A minimum of 3 data points are collected for each assay."
  • "Data collected from at least two test sites, testing performed within 1 week of receipt of test samples."
  • "Our target acceptance criteria Is ±5% of the target value, but if we cannot get ± 5% agreement from our testing laboratories we will accept ± 10%... If a testing laboratory does not report within 10% of target we ask that the sample be repeated. Once we have an acceptable convergence of values from all of the testing laboratories the lot is released."

This suggests repeated testing and comparison among multiple labs with defined acceptance thresholds for agreement, rather than a formal 2+1 or 3+1 adjudication by individual experts in the traditional sense for image interpretation.


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

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is a quality control material, not an AI diagnostic tool intended to assist human readers. Therefore, the concept of improving human reader performance with AI assistance is not applicable.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

  • A standalone performance study was done in the sense that the device, as a quality control material, is evaluated on its own analytical properties (stability, assigned values, precision monitoring capability) using laboratory instruments. There isn't an "algorithm" in the typical AI sense; the "device" itself is the control material. Its performance is measured by how precisely and accurately analytical instruments can detect the specified concentrations within the control.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used for this device is based on analytical quantification methods and certified reference standards:

  • Gravimetric spiking with authentic reference drug standards and/or appropriate metabolites.
  • Purity determination using analytical tools including GC/MS, LC/MS, and NMR.
  • Balances calibrated with weights traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
  • Testing by SAMHSA or CAP certified independent laboratories using GC/MS, LC/MS, or Immunoassay screening.
  • Negative control urines are certified negative by combination of immunoassay, GC/MS and/or LC/MS.

This constitutes a highly rigorous, metrologically traceable analytical ground truth.


8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The concept of a "training set" as understood in machine learning is not applicable here. This device is a chemical control material, not an AI algorithm that learns from data. The manufacturing and validation processes involve:

  • Reference standards and gravimetric preparation: These form the basis for the intended concentrations.
  • Initial production batches: These are the manufacturing lots that undergo value assignment and stability testing as described above.

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

As noted above, there is no "training set" in the AI sense. The "ground truth" (i.e., the known and verified concentrations of analytes in the control material) is established through:

  • Precise gravimetric preparation: Spiking authentic reference drug standards (traceable to NIST) into the human-based urine matrix at known concentrations.
  • Purity verification of reference standards: Using advanced analytical techniques such as GC/MS, LC/MS, and NMR.
  • Verification by multiple independent certified laboratories: The value assignment process, involving multiple labs and stringent acceptance criteria, serves to confirm the prepared concentrations with high confidence.

Traceability:

The drug values in the Detectabuse® control are validated by SAMHSA or CAP certified independent laboratories by using either GC/MS, LC/MS, HPLC, or Immunoassay screening. The controls are manufactured using reference standards supplied by companies including Cerilliant and Alltech Corporation. Accuracy is certified by purity determination using analytical tools including GC/MS, LC/MS, and NMR. Gravimetric preparation is accomplished using balances calibrated with weights that are traceable to National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).

{9}------------------------------------------------

Metrological Traceability of Values Assigned to Control Materials

Detectabuse® Liquid Control Urines have target value assignments for various drug constituents. Laboratories (or other end-users) are to use these target concentrations when performing screening or confirmation of drugs of abuse testing methods.

Image /page/9/Figure/2 description: The image shows a flow chart of the metrological traceability of drug testing. The flow chart starts with a >98% purity drug standard either solutions or powder. The next step is volumetric and gravimetric measurement by balance and pipette (cross-checked). The flow chart ends with the final result (ng/mL).

{10}------------------------------------------------

Value Assignment:

The following procedure was used for value assignment

a. Assay Methodology used to assign values:

Certified Independent laboratories test by either GC/MS, LC/MS, or Immunoassay screening depending on validated test method that is in use at time of testing.

b. Data Collection:

A minimum of 3 data points are collected for each assay. Data collected from at least two test sites, testing performed within 1 week of receipt of test samples.

c. Value assignment Criteria:

An initial production batch is sampled as described in the protocol and single or multiple samples (depending on our past experience with the constituent(s), are ordinarily sent out to 4 or 5 certified laboratories, depending on the constituents being tested. Certain drug constituents are not routinely tested by all of our reference laboratories and, in this case, we identify at least 3 laboratories that are proficient in those constituents. Our target acceptance criteria Is ±5% of the target value, but if we cannot get ± 5% agreement from our testing laboratories we will accept ± 10%, particularly in the case of certain drugs that are not routinely tested for such as Propoxyphene and Methaqualone. If a testing laboratory does not report within 10% of target we ask that the sample be repeated. Once we have an acceptable convergence of values from all of the testing laboratories the lot is released. In the case of Stat-Skreen® controls for on-site hand held devices, when available, the lot will also be tested on hand held devices listed for the constituents. In this case our criteria shall be that positive controls test positive and negative product tests negative on the device.

For our final testing of a lot by GC/MS or LC/MS at the end of its shelf life we aim for ± 10% of target value but will accept up to ±15% for certain constituents such as Oxazepam that are known to have stability issues.

{11}------------------------------------------------

Stability Protocol K153474

Biochemical Diagnostics performed stability testing on our Detectabuse® controls to verify the performance claims in our package inserts. Controls were tested at Room Temperature (18-21°C), Refrigerated (2-8°C). Frozen (-10 to -20°C). The protocol and conclusion are listed below.

Open Vial (2-8°C) Stability

Protocol:

Refrigerated temperature on opened vial Detectabuse® controls was tested initially and again at 31 days. Controls run by Drugs of Abuse testing using FDA approved test methods.

Conclusion:

Data support the 31-day open bottle stability at 2-8℃ for all analytes in the lots evaluated. All analytes tested passed specifications, Positive controls tested positive and Negative controls tested negative.

Closed Vial (2-8°C) Stability

Protocol:

Refrigerated temperature on closed vial Detectabuse® controls were tested initially and repeated at 1 year and 3 years. Controls run by Drugs of Abuse testing using FDA approved test methods. At expiration date (3 years from manufacture), all drugs tested were stable within 12% of target or original test value done at time of manufacturing with the exception of Oxazepam which dropped 15-22% after one year refrigerated. At study conclusion of 3 years, all drugs were within 15% except Oxazepam which dropped to 25%.

Conclusion:

Refrigerated temperature storage is recommended until expiration date except for Oxazepam which showed a 15-22% drop when stored refrigerated unopened greater than 1 year. Results of other drugs found in our stock Detectabuse product line were within the acceptable criteria of +/-15% from target until expiration date. We do not recommend long term storage (more than six months) refrigerated based on the results of the Oxazepam testing this information is listed on the package insert under unopened Storage & Stability information and under Limitations.

Limitations listed on package insert:

DETECTABUSE CONTROLS, OXAZEPAM STABILITY: Oxazepam has known stability problems in urine stored refrigerated, our studies indicates that Oxazepam will deteriorate when stored refrigerated for longer than 6 months.

Closed Vial (-10°C to -20°C) Stability

Protocol: Multiple bottles of a single lot of individual or multi-constituent Detectabuse® controls were pulled from beginning, middle, and end of production , set aside and unopened bottles were assayed at time of manufacturing and again (unopened bottles) periodically. Studies are ongoing and sent for assay until expiration date. Studies carried out on product between 3 to 4 years frozen storage. Closed vial study samples were stored frozen within a temperature range of -10°C to -20°C. Study samples were tested by GC/MS or LC/MS using SAMHSA licensed laboratories or CAP inspected and certified as well as by our own in-house evaluations using GC/MS and/or FDA approved hand held devices.

{12}------------------------------------------------

Conclusion:

Multiple studies were conducted using various different lots, tested initially and repeated between 3 and 4 years. Drug levels were quantitated by GC/MS or LC/MS and, all drugs tested were stable within 15% of target or original test value done at time of manufacturing, this information was used to support the limitations listed in our package insert.

Room Temperature (18-21℃)

Protocol:

Several lots of Detectabuse Controls were selected and stored room temperature for up to 31 days. The controls are not recommended to be stored at room temperature, but room temperature storage can occur during delays in shipping or by customer error. This data is used to support stability claims for the constituents of Detectabuse controls. Study samples were tested by GC/MS or LC/MS using SAMHSA licensed laboratories or CAP inspected and certified as well as by our own in-house evaluations using GC/MS and/or FDA approved hand held devices.

Conclusion:

All drugs tested for 31 days by GC/MS or LC/MS and/or FDA approved hand held devices tested within 18% of target value or original test value done at time of manufacture.

Stability protocols, with acceptance criteria, for the Detectabuse® Liquid Controls Urine for ongoing stability testing of on-market product lots

Additional on-going stability studies are done on random lots of each formulation to ensure continued performance; customer satisfaction surveys are also conducted quarterly to receive feedback on product performance. Negative customer feedback on product performance will trigger retesting if warranted after investigation. Controls are tested initially, and if no negative feedback, repeated every 6 months until endpoint of study, unless otherwise indicated in a specific study protocol. A normal testing protocol is designed to mimic the end users use of the product in accordance with the package insert instructions.
