The ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay is a fully automated, two-step immunoassay using chemiluminescent technology. The assay utilizes an acridinium ester-labeled anti-human lgG as the Lite Reagent. The Solid Phase consists of biotinylated CCP coupled to streptavidin which is then coated onto magnetic latex microparticles.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:

Device Name: ADVIA Centaur® Anti-CCP IgG (aCCP) Assay

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:

The document doesn't explicitly state "acceptance criteria" as a separate, quantitative table derived from a pre-defined standard (like a predicate device's performance). Instead, it compares the performance of the new device (ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay) to a predicate device (ARCHITECT Anti-CCP Assay) for several characteristics and implies that similar performance constitutes meeting the criteria for substantial equivalence. I will reconstruct a table showing the implied acceptance criteria (based on the predicate's performance or general expectations for such an assay) and the reported performance.

2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance:

  • Test Set (Clinical Performance):
    • Method Comparison Study: 253 samples (143 confirmed positive for RA, and 110 samples where other auto-antibodies may be present). Data provenance not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective), but it is a clinical study.
    • Clinical Sensitivity and Specificity Study: 767 patient samples.
      • 307 confirmed-positive RA subjects.
      • 460 non-RA subjects with potentially cross-reacting conditions (22 subgroups).
      • Data provenance not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
  • Training Set: Not explicitly mentioned for this type of in vitro diagnostic assay. Immunoassays are generally calibrated and validated, not "trained" in the machine learning sense. The "training" in this context would likely refer to the development and optimization of the assay reagents and parameters.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth (Test Set):

  • For RA Confirmation: "307 confirmed-positive RA subjects that were classified according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria." This implies expert clinical diagnosis based on established criteria, but the specific number and qualifications of individuals making these diagnoses are not provided.
  • For Non-RA Subjects: "22 subgroups of non-RA subjects (n=460) with potentially cross-reacting conditions." This also implies clinical diagnosis by experts, but details are not provided.
  • For Autoantibody Presence (Method Comparison): "110 samples where other auto-antibodies may be present." This suggests expert determination of autoantibody status, but details are not given.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

Not applicable or explicitly stated as this is an immunoassay, not an imaging device requiring expert adjudication of reader interpretations. The ground truth for clinical sensitivity and specificity is based on clinical diagnosis (American College of Rheumatology criteria for RA).

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

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This type of study is typically performed for imaging devices or AI tools that assist human readers in interpretation. The ADVIA Centaur anti-CCP IgG assay is a standalone diagnostic laboratory test.

6. Standalone Performance:

Yes, standalone performance was done. The entire document describes the standalone performance of the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay in various analytical and clinical studies (linearity, dilution linearity, detection capability, high dose hook, cross-reactivity, interference, precision, specimen collection comparison, clinical concordance with a predicate, and clinical sensitivity/specificity against clinical diagnosis). The results presented are solely the performance of the algorithm/assay without human intervention in the result determination.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used:

  • Analytical Performance: Based on reference materials, spiked samples with known concentrations, or established analytical methods.
  • Clinical Performance (Sensitivity/Specificity):
    • RA Diagnosis: American College of Rheumatology criteria (clinical diagnosis) for RA.
    • Non-RA Status: Clinical diagnosis of various conditions (22 subgroups).
  • Method Comparison: The predicate device (ARCHITECT Anti-CCP Assay) results were used as a reference point for agreement.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set:

Not applicable in the machine learning sense. For an immunoassay, "training" is typically assay development, which involves optimizing reagents and parameters. The document doesn't specify sample sizes used during the development phase.

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

Not applicable. For an immunoassay, ground truth during development would involve well-characterized samples (e.g., confirmed positive/negative for CCP antibodies, known concentrations) to optimize the assay's performance characteristics. Specific details on this are not provided in the summary.

Summary of Non-Clinical Performance:

The ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay demonstrated substantially equivalent performance to the ARCHITECT Anti-CCP assay. A summary of the non-clinical performance data included in this 510(k) submission has been presented.

Linearity

Linearity was evaluated according to the CLSI protocol EP6-A. Three samples containing high levels of anti-CCP IgG were mixed with a pool of negative serum. The resulting sample mixtures were assayed for anti-CCP IgG. The ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay is linear from 0.40-200.00 U/mL.

Dilution Linearity

Two samples containing high levels of anti-CCP IgG (140.63 and 180.08 U/mL) were diluted 1:10 (1 part sample plus 9 parts diluent) with Multi-Diluent 1 and assayed for recovery and parallelism. Representative data from the study is shown below.

SampleDilutionObserved(U/mL)Expected(U/mL)Recovery %

1:10151.7014.06107.87
2-180.08
1:10190.2018.01105.62

Measuring Interval

The ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay measures anti-CCP IgG concentrations from 0.40-200.0 U/mL.

Detection Capability

The ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay is designed to have a Limit of Detection (LoD) of less than 1.50 U/mL. The LoD was determined as described in CLSI Document EP17-A2.

The LoD is defined as the lowest concentration of anti-CCP IgG that can be detected with greater than or equal to 95% probability. The LoD was determined to be 0.40 U/mL.

High Dose Hook

Patient samples with high anti-CCP IgG levels can cause a paradoxical decrease in the Relative Light Units (RLUs) (high-dose hook effect). In this assay, patient samples with anti-CCP IgG levels as high as 3000.00 U/mL will assay greater than 200.00 U/mL.

{8}------------------------------------------------

Cross-reactivity

Cross-reactivity was tested in the presence and absence of anti-CCP IgG according to CLSI EP7-A2 using the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay. Populations evaluated in the study included Sm, RNP, SSB, Scl-70, Jo-1, Ribosomal P, M2, TPO, ds-DNA, SSA and Chromatin. The study showed no clinically significant cross-reactivity of the CCP antigen with any of these auto-antibodies.

Interference

Interfering substances at the levels indicated in the table below were tested as described in CLSI Document EP7-A2 using the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay. Potential interference in the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay is designed to be less than or equal to 10%.

Precision

Precision was evaluated according to the CLSI protocol EP5-A2. Assay precision was designed to have Within-Laboratory %CV less than or equal to 7.0% for levels less than 50.00 U/mL and less than or equal to 10% for levels greater than 50.00 U/mL.

Six serum precision panels were prepared with anti-CCP IgG concentrations spanning the measuring interval. Each sample was tested in replicates of 2 in two runs per day over 20 days. One ADVIA Centaur system was used and one reagent lot giving a total of 80 observations per sample. Representative data from the study is shown in the following table.

The sensitivity assessment of the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay was conducted on 307 confirmed-positive RA subjects that were classified according to the American College of Rheumatology criteria.

The specificity assessment of the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay was conducted on 22 subgroups of non-RA subjects (n=460) with potentially cross-reacting conditions.

Conclusion:

Based on the performance characteristics the ADVIA Centaur aCCP assay is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

The results presented in this 510(k) premarket submission demonstrate that the candidate assay (ADVIA Centaur® anti-CCP IgG (aCCP) assay, K153551) performance is substantially equivalent to the predicate assay (ARCHITECT Anti-CCP Assay (K083868) The similarities and differences between the candidate assay and the predicate assay are presented in the tables starting on page 3/10.
