AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes the acceptance criteria and supporting studies for two in vitro diagnostic devices: the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Control Set and the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Calibration Verifiers.

1. Table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance:

Study TypeAcceptance CriteriaReported Device Performance
Control Set
Value AssignmentAssigned target value defined as the mean of all runs for the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay and analyzer.Expected values: Low control: 2.0 ng/mL, Medium control: 5.0 ng/mL, High control: 10.0 ng/mL. (The study provides these as the expected values, which implies they were achieved, but does not explicitly re-state them as performance against the criteria beyond the definition of the target value.)
Closed Vial Stability- Mean concentration must be within QC ranges (as stated in Certificate of Analysis)- Precision: CV ≤ 10% for low concentration, ≤ 8% for middle and high concentration- Accelerated stability studies (CLSI guideline EP25-A) support a stability claim of 9 months when stored at 2-8°C.- Real-time studies are ongoing. (No explicit statement if current readings meet the mean concentration and precision criteria for the 9-month claim, only that it "supports" it).
Open Vial StabilityPercent recoveries within 10% of the reference material concentration.Data supports the open vial stability claim of 49 days when stored at 2-8°C. (Implies the 10% recovery criterion was met).
On-Board StabilityCompared to a reference material run at time 0. (Specific quantitative criteria not explicitly stated, assumes comparison ensures acceptable performance.)The on-board stability data supports the claimed on-board stability of 4 hours. (Implies acceptable comparison results).
Calibration Verifiers
Value AssignmentAssigned target value defined as the mean of all runs for the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay and analyzer.Expected values: Cal Ver 0: Undetectable, Cal Ver 1: 2.0 ng/mL, Cal Ver 2: 8.0 ng/mL, Cal Ver 3: 17.0 ng/mL. (Similar to control set, implies these were achieved.)
Closed Vial Stability- Mean concentration must be within QC ranges (as stated in Certificate of Analysis)- Precision: CV ≤ 10% for low concentration, ≤ 8% for middle and high concentration- Accelerated stability studies (CLSI guideline EP25-A) support a stability claim of 9 months when stored at 2-8°C.- Real-time studies are ongoing. (No explicit statement if current readings meet the mean concentration and precision criteria for the 9-month claim, only that it "supports" it).
On-Board StabilityCompared to a reference material run at time 0. (Specific quantitative criteria not explicitly stated, assumes comparison ensures acceptable performance.)The on-board stability data supports the claimed on-board stability of 4 hours. (Implies acceptable comparison results).

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

  • IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Control Set - Value Assignment:
    • Sample Size: A minimum of 21 runs using cartridge batches (number of batches not specified) tested in triplicate on each of three IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated Systems. Control solutions were prepared gravimetrically.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated as retrospective or prospective, nor country of origin. Given it's a device manufacturer's study to establish product characteristics, it's inherently prospective in nature.
  • IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Control Set - Stability (All types):
    • Closed Vial (Real-time): Three lots of controls, tested in pentaplicate (5 replicates) at 2-month intervals for up to a minimum of 15 months. Each tested vial compared to reference material stored at -20°C.
    • Closed Vial (Accelerated): Performed according to CLSI guideline EP25-A.
    • Open Vial: Tested in duplicate at time points stated in the stability protocol (time points not detailed), against unopened vials.
    • On-Board: Three batches of controls, using three IDS-iSYS instruments. Tested at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours compared to a reference material at time 0.
    • Data Provenance: Same as above, likely prospective internal testing.
  • IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Calibration Verifiers - Value Assignment:
    • Sample Size: Minimum of five runs for each cartridge batch (number of batches not specified) tested in triplicate on each of three IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated Systems. Calibration Verifier solutions were prepared gravimetrically.
    • Data Provenance: Same as above, likely prospective internal testing.
  • IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Calibration Verifiers - Stability (Closed Vial & On-Board):
    • Closed Vial (Real-time): Three lots of calibration verifiers, tested in pentaplicate (5 replicates) at 2-month intervals for up to a minimum of 15 months.
    • Closed Vial (Accelerated): Performed according to CLSI guideline EP25-A.
    • On-Board: Three batches of calibration verifiers, using three IDS-iSYS instruments. Tested at 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8 hours compared to a reference material at time 0.
    • Data Provenance: Same as above, likely prospective internal testing.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g., radiologist with 10 years of experience):

This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) quality control material and calibration verifier for automated systems, not an imaging AI device. The "ground truth" here refers to the reference values established for the control and calibration materials themselves, rather than diagnosis or interpretation by human experts.

  • Value Assignment: The "ground truth" (assigned target values) for both the control set and calibration verifiers is established by the mean of all runs from multiple tests on three IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated Systems, using cartridge batches, and confirmed by immunologic analysis using the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay. The solutions themselves are prepared gravimetrically from intermediate stock solutions.
  • There are no "experts" in the traditional sense (e.g., radiologists) involved in establishing the ground truth for this type of chemical/immunological assay. The ground truth relies on the precision and accuracy of the analytical methods and the instrument itself.

4. Adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:

Not applicable. This is not a study involving human interpretation or subjective assessment of data that would require an adjudication method. The device's performance is determined by quantitative measurements and statistical analysis against predefined criteria.

5. 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:

Not applicable. This device is an IVD quality control and calibration material, not an AI-powered diagnostic tool for human readers. No MRMC study was conducted or is relevant for this product.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

Yes, the studies are inherently standalone as they evaluate the performance of the control and calibration materials on the IDS-iSYS Multi-Discipline Automated System. The system/assay performs the measurements without human intervention in the interpretation of the control/verifier results themselves beyond setting up the experiment and analyzing statistical compliance. The performance reported (e.g., mean concentration, CV, percent recovery) is that of the material as measured by the automated system.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):

The ground truth used is based on:

  • Gravimetric preparation: For the initial stock solutions and preparation of control/calibration verifier samples.
  • Immunologic analysis: Confirmation of concentrations using the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay itself.
  • Statistical averaging: The mean of multiple runs on multiple instruments to establish the assigned target values, treated as the reference ground truth for quality control and calibration verification.
  • Reference material comparison: For stability studies, comparison to a reference control material stored under optimal conditions (-20°C).

This is a form of analytical ground truth derived from established quantitative laboratory methods and statistical analysis rather than clinical consensus or pathological diagnosis.

8. The sample size for the training set:

Not applicable. This is not an AI/machine learning device that requires a training set. The values and stability characteristics are determined through direct analytical testing, not model training.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

Not applicable. As there is no training set for an AI/machine learning model, no ground truth needed to be established for it.

Performance Characteristics

IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Control Set

Value Assignment

Each control level is tested on three IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated Systems with a minimum of 21runs using cartridge batches available tested in triplicate. Control solutions are prepared gravimetrically from an intermediate stock solution and concentrations are confirmed by immunologic analysis using IDS-iSYS 17-0H Progesterone assay on IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated System. In the value assignment process, controls were calibrated using a master calibrator to generate a master curve. The assigned target value of each control level is defined as the mean of all the runs for the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay and analyzer. The following are the expected values for each level of control: 2.0 ng/mL, 5.0 ng/mL and 10.0 ng/mL.

Stability

Closed vial:

For the real time closed vial testing, three lots of controls were stored at 4°C.

Each control material will be tested in pentaplicate in 2 month intervals for up to a minimum of 15 months. Each control vial tested will be compared back to reference control material stored at -20°C. Controls must be within acceptance criteria defined as below:

  • mean concentration must be within QC ranges (as stated in the Certificate of Analysis)

  • precision: CV ≤ 10% for low concentration - ≤ 8% for middle and high concentration

To date, accelerated stability studies performed according to the CLSI guideline EP25-A (Evaluation of stability of In Vitro Diagnostic Reagents) support a stability claim of 9 months when stored at 2-8°C.

Real time stability studies in accordance with the CLSI guideline EP25-A (Evaluation of stability of In Vitro Diagnostic Reagents) to support the above claims are ongoing.

Open Vial:

Open vial (in-use) stability of controls were performed at 4℃ and tested against unopened vials of control material stored at 4°C. Controls were tested in duplicate at the time points stated in the stability protocol. Percent recoveries of each material

{7}------------------------------------------------

were within the acceptance criteria of 10% of the reference material concentration. Data supports the open vial stability claim of 49 days when stored at 2-8°C.

On-Board:

On-board stability studies were performed using three batches of controls using three IDS-iSYS instruments. Controls were tested at time 0, 2 hours, 4 hours, 6 hours and 8 hours and compared to a reference material run at time 0. The on board stability data supports the claimed on-board stability of 4 hours.

IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone Calibration Verifiers

Value Assignment

Each calibration verifier level is tested on three IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated Systems with a minimum of five runs for each cartridge batch tested in triplicate. Calibration Verifiers solutions are prepared gravimetrically from an intermediate stock solution and concentrations are confirmed by immunologic analysis using IDS-iSYS 17-0H Progesterone assay on IDS-iSYS Multi Discipline Automated System. In the value assignment process, calibration verifiers were calibrated using a master calibrator to generate a master curve. The assigned target value of each calibration verifier level is defined as the mean of all the runs for the IDS-iSYS 17-OH Progesterone assay and analyzer. The following are the expected values for each level of calibration verifier: 2.0 ng/mL, 8.0 ng/mL, and 17.0 ng/mL.

Stability

For the real time closed vial testing, three lots of calibration verifiers will be stored at 4°C. Each calibration verifier will be tested in pentaplicate in 2 month intervals for up to a minimum of 15 months.

Calibration verifiers must be within acceptance criteria defined as below:

  • mean concentration must be within QC ranges (as stated in the Certificate of Analysis)

  • precision: CV ≤ 10% for low concentration - ≤ 8% for middle and high concentration

To date, accelerated stability studies performed according to the CLSI guideline EP25-A (Evaluation of stability of In Vitro Diagnostic Reagents) support a stability claim of 9 months when stored at 2-8°C.

Real time stability studies in accordance with the CLSI guideline EP25-A (Evaluation of stability of In Vitro Diagnostic Reagents) to support the above claims are ongoing.

On-Board:

On-board stability studies were performed using three batches of calibration verifiers using three IDS-iSYS instruments. Calibration verifiers were tested at time 0, 2 hours,

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

4 hours, 6 hours and 8 hours and compared to a reference material run at time 0. The on board stability data supports the claimed on-board stability of 4 hours.

Proposed Labeling

The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.

Conclusion

The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.

§ 862.1660 Quality control material (assayed and unassayed).

(a)
Identification. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). Except when intended for use in donor screening tests, quality control materials (assayed and unassayed) are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9.
