Intended Use
The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is an in vitro diagnostic test, using isothermal amplification technology (helicase-dependent amplification, HDA), for the qualitative detection and differentiation of herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, and varicella-zoster virus DNA isolated and purified from cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples obtained from symptomatic patients suspected of active herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and/or varicella-zoster infection. The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended to aid in the diagnosis of herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and varicella-zoster virus active cutaneous or mucocutaneous infections. Negative results do not preclude herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and varicella-zoster virus infections and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions. The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended for use only with the Solana® instrument. Warning: The Solana® HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay is not intended for use with cerebrospinal fluid or to aid in the diagnosis of HSV or VZV infections of the central nervous system (CNS). The Solana® HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay is not intended for use in prenatal screening.
Device Description
The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay amplifies and detects viral DNA isolated from cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples obtained from symptomatic patients suspected of active herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and/or varicella-zoster infection. The assay consists of two (2) major steps: 1) specimen preparation, and 2) amplification and detection of target sequence specific to HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV using isothermal Helicase-Dependent Amplification (HDA) in the presence of target-specific fluorescence probe. Patient specimen is transferred to a Process Tube, subjected to heat treatment at 95°C for 5 minutes and mixed and vortexed. The processed sample is transferred to a Reaction Tube and mixed. The Reaction Tube contains lyophilized HDA reagents, dNTPs, primers and probes. Once rehydrated with the diluted sample, the Reaction Tube is placed in Solana for amplification and detection of specific target sequence. In Solana, the target sequences are amplified by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific primers and detected by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific fluorescence probes included in the Reaction Tube. A competitive process control (PRC) is included in the Process Tube to monitor sample processing, inhibitory substances in clinical samples, reagent failure or device failure. The PRC target is amplified by specific primers and detected by a PRC specific fluorescence probe. The target and PRC probes are labeled with a quencher on one end and a fluorophore on the other end. In addition, the target and PRC probes carry a ribonucleic acid. Upon annealing to HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV or PRC amplicons, the fluorescence probes are cleaved by RNaseH2 and the fluorescence signal increases due to physical separation of fluorophore from quencher. Solana measures and interprets the fluorescent signal, using on-board method-specific algorithms. Solana will then report the test results to the user on its display screen, and the results can be printed via an attached printer.

l. Device Description:

The Solana® HSV 1+2/VZV Assay amplifies and detects viral DNA isolated from cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples obtained from symptomatic patients suspected of active herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and/or varicella-zoster infection.

The assay consists of two (2) major steps: 1) specimen preparation, and 2) amplification and detection of target sequence specific to HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV using isothermal Helicase-Dependent Amplification (HDA) in the presence of target-specific fluorescence probe.

Patient specimen is transferred to a Process Tube, subjected to heat treatment at 95°C for 5 minutes and mixed and vortexed. The processed sample is transferred to a Reaction Tube and mixed. The Reaction Tube contains lyophilized HDA reagents, dNTPs, primers and probes. Once rehydrated with the diluted sample, the Reaction Tube is placed in Solana for amplification and detection of specific target sequence. In Solana, the target sequences are amplified by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific primers and detected by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific fluorescence probes included in the Reaction Tube. A competitive process control (PRC) is included in the Process Tube to monitor sample processing, inhibitory substances in clinical samples, reagent failure or device failure. The PRC target is amplified by specific primers and detected by a PRC specific fluorescence probe.

The target and PRC probes are labeled with a quencher on one end and a fluorophore on the other end. In addition, the target and PRC probes carry a ribonucleic acid. Upon annealing to HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV or PRC amplicons, the fluorescence probes are cleaved by RNaseH2 and the fluorescence signal increases due to physical separation of fluorophore from quencher. Solana measures and interprets the fluorescent signal, using on-board method-specific algorithms. Solana will then report the test results to the user on its display screen, and the results can be printed via an attached printer.

L. Test Principle:

Patient specimen is transferred to a Process Tube, subjected to heat treatment at 95°C for 5 minutes and mixed and vortexed. The processed sample is transferred to a Reaction Tube and mixed. The Reaction Tube contains lyophilized HDA reagents, dNTPs, primers and probes. Once rehydrated with the diluted sample, the Reaction Tube is placed in Solana for amplification and detection of specific target sequence. In Solana, the target sequences are amplified by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific primers and detected by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific fluorescence probes included in the Reaction Tube. A competitive process control (PRC) is included in the Process Tube to monitor sample processing, inhibitory substances in clinical samples, reagent failure or device failure. The PRC target is amplified by specific primers and detected by a PRC specific fluorescence probe.

The target and PRC probes are labeled with a quencher on one end and a fluorophore on the other end. In addition, the target and PRC probes carry a ribonucleic acid. Upon annealing to HSV-1, HSV-2, VZV or PRC amplicons, the fluorescence probes are cleaved by RNaseH2 and the fluorescence signal increases due to physical separation of fluorophore from quencher. Solana measures and interprets the fluorescent signal, using on-board

11

method-specific algorithms. Solana will then report the test results to the user on its display screen, and the results can be printed via an attached printer.

Reproducibility

The reproducibility of the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay was evaluated at three laboratory sites. A reproducibility panel containing 30 contrived samples, manufactured as high negative samples (n=3; 1/18x or 1/27x LOD (C₂o – ၆၈ concentration)) for HSV-1 MacIntyre, HSV-2 G, and VZV Ellen, low positive samples (n=3; near the assay limit of detection) for HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV, moderate positive samples (n=3; 3x LOD) for HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV and negative samples (n=3) was used for the study. The samples were randomized and blind-coded within each panel, and the operator tested one (1) panel, together with three (3) positive and three (3) negative external controls, in three runs. The panels were run by two operators at each testing site for five (5) non-consecutive days.

Specimen Stability:

13

A study was performed to demonstrate specimen stability in various transport media types: M4, M4RT, M5, M6, and UTM when stored at room temperature (30 °C) for up to 48 hours, ≤ -20 °C, or 2 to 8 °C for up to 7 days.

HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV virus stocks (HSV-1 McIntyre, HSV-2 G, and VZV Ellen) were diluted to their respective 2x LOD concentrations in each in of five (5) transport medium pooled negative matrix (Remel M4, Remel M6, Remel M6, Remel M4RT or UTM transport medium).

The transport media systems containing the contrived samples were stored T at three different conditions: Condition 1 = room temperature (30 ± 2 °C) for 50 hours, Condition 2 = 2 to 8 °C for 8 days, and Condition 3 = -20 °C for 8 days.

For Condition 1, the specimens were stored at room temperature (30 ± 2 °C) and tested at 0, 24, 48, and 50 hours post-storage. For Condition 2, the specimens were stored at 2-8 °C and tested at Day 0, Day 1, Day 3, Day 4, Day 7, and Day 8 poststorage. For Condition 3, the specimens were stored at -20 °C and tested at Day 0, Day 1, Day 3, Day 4, Day 7, and Day 8 post-storage.

Based on this study, HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV samples at 2x LOD were stable when stored in M4, M4-RT, M5, M6, and UTM negative matrix for up to 50 hours at 30 °C ± 2 °C. HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV samples were stable when stored in M4, M4-RT, M5, M6, and UTM negative matrix for up to 8 days at 2° to 8 °C. HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV samples were stable when stored in M4, M4-RT, M5, M6, and UTM negative matrix for up to 8 days at 2° to 8 °C.

Controls:

. External controls for HSV-1, HSV-2, or VZV (e.g. Quidel Molecular HSV/VZV Control Set, which contains positive and negative controls, serves as an external processing and extraction control) were run on the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay each day of testing.

The assay controls are described as follows:

  • a. The process control is used to monitor sample processing, to detect HDA inhibitory specimens and to confirm the integrity of assay reagents and Solana instrument functionality. The process control is included in the Process Buffer tube.

14

  • The external positive control may be treated as a patient specimen. The b. control should be sampled and tested as if it were a specimen and processed as described in the Assay Procedure. The external positive control is intended to monitor substantial reagent and instrument failure.
  • c. The external negative control may be treated as a patient specimen. The control should be sampled and tested as if it were a specimen and processed as described in the Assay Procedure. The external negative control is used to detect reagent or environmental contamination (or carry-over) by HSV 1+2/VZV DNA or amplicon.

d. Detection limit:

The analytical sensitivity (limit of detection or LOD) of the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay was determined using quantified (TCID50/mL) cultures of two (2) HSV-1 strains, two (2) HSV-2 strains, and two (2) VZV strains, serially diluted in negative matrix. Each dilution was run as 20 replicates in the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV assay. Analytical sensitivity (LOD) is defined as the lowest concentration at which at least 95% of all replicates tested positive. The demonstrated LOD for each strain tested is shown below:

Combined Data

Cutaneous Lesions

Two-hundred seventy-five (275) active cutaneous lesion specimens were cultured for HSV-1, using the FDA-cleared ELVIS cell culture system and were also tested with the subject device for HSV-1 viral DNA. Samples which gave HSV-2 positive results from the ELVIS method were excluded from the HSV-1 performance calculation because of the inability of the ELVIS method to distinguish an HSV-1 positive sample when HSV-2 was detected first (n=26). The table below details the HSV-1 results for the remaining two-hundred forty-nine (249) specimens.

5. Expected values:

The expected values of the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay were established during a prospective study conducted between February and May 2016. One thousand sixty-two (1062) specimens have been included in this study at three (3) sites across the United States. A single specimen was collected per patient. The specimens were processed and tested with Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay on the Solana instrument at the sites.

The expected value of HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV with the Solana HSV 1+2/VZV Assay has been calculated for the combined sites based on the category of specimen (cutaneous, mucocutaneous, or uncategorized lesion source) and the age of the patient.

N. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Characteristics Data Not Covered In The "Performance Characteristics" Section above:

Instrument: Solana™ Instrument

O. System Descriptions:

  1. Modes of Operation:

26

The Solana instrument heats each reaction tube to 64°C. If present, the target sequence is amplified by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific primers and detected by HSV-1, HSV-2 and/or VZV specific fluorescence probes included in the Reaction Tube. Each probe has a florescent dye of specific wavelength. The target probes are labeled with a quencher on one end and a fluorophore on the other end. In addition, the target probes carry a ribonucleic acid. Upon annealing to the respective amplicons, the fluorescence probes are cleaved by RNaseH2 and the fluorescence signal increases due to physical separation of fluorophore from quencher. The Solana instrument measures and interprets the fluorescent signal, using on-board method-specific algorithms. Solana instrument will then report the test results to the user on its display screen, and it can print out the results via a printer.
