Intended Use
The FilmArray® Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) is a multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with FilmArray® 2.0 or FilmArray® Torch systems for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral and bacterial nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections. The following organism types and subtypes are identified using the FilmArray® RP2: - · Adenovirus - Coronavirus 229E - · Coronavirus HKU1 - · Coronavirus NL63 - Coronavirus OC43 - Human Metapneumovirus - Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus - · Influenza A, including subtypes H1, H1-2009, and H3 - Influenza B - Parainfluenza Virus 1 - Parainfluenza Virus 2 - Parainfluenza Virus 3 - Parainfluenza Virus 4 - · Respiratory Syncytial Virus - · Bordetella parapertussis (IS1001) - Bordetella pertussis (ptxP) - Chlamydia pneumoniae - Mycoplasma pneumoniae The detection and identification of specific viral and bacterial nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of a respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information. The results of this test should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions. Negative results in the setting of a respiratory illness may be due to infection with pathogens that are not detected by this test, or lower respiratory tract infection that may not be detected by a nasopharyngeal swab specimen. Positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms: the agent(s) detected by the FilmArray® RP2 may not be the definite cause of disease. Additional laboratory testing (e.g. bacterial and viral culture, immunofluorescence, and radiography) may be necessary when evaluating a patient with possible respiratory tract infection. Due to the genetic similarity between Human Rhinovirus and Enterovirus, the FilmArray® RP2 cannot reliably differentiate them. A positive FilmArray® RP2 Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result should be followed up using an alternate method (e.g., cell culture or sequence analysis) if differentiation is required. Performance characteristics for Influenza A were established when Influenza A H1-2009 and A H3 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. Performance of detecting Influenza A may vary if other Influenza A strains are circulating or a novel Influenza A virus emerges. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.
Device Description
The FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) is designed to simultaneously identify 21 different potential pathogens (see Table 1) of respiratory tract infection from a single NPS specimen in a time frame (~45 minutes) that allows the test results to be used in determining appropriate patient treatment and management. FilmArray RP2 is compatible with BioFire Diagnostics' (BioFire) PCR-based in vitro diagnostic FilmArray 2.0 and FilmArray Torch systems for infectious disease testing. A specific software module (i.e. FilmArray RP2 pouch module) is used to perform FilmArray RP2 testing on these systems. A test is initiated by loading Hydration Solution into one port of the FilmArray pouch and an NPS sample (in transport media) mixed with the provided Sample Buffer into the other port of the FilmArray RP2 pouch and placing it in a FilmArray instrument. The pouch contains all of the reagents required for specimen testing and analysis in a freeze-dried format; the addition of Hydration Solution and Sample/Buffer Mix rehydrates the reagents. After the pouch is prepared, the FilmArray Software guides the user though the steps of placing the pouch into the instrument, scanning the pouch barcode, entering the sample identification, and initiating the run. The FilmArray instrument contains a coordinated system of inflatable bladders and seal points, which act on the pouch to control the movement of liquid between the pouch blisters. When a bladder is inflated over a reagent blister, it forces liquid from the blister into connecting channels. Alternatively, when a seal is placed over a connecting channel it acts as a valve to open or close a channel. In addition, electronically-controlled pneumatic pistons are positioned over multiple plungers in order to deliver the rehydrated reagents into the blisters at the appropriate times. Two Peltier devices control heating and cooling of the pouch to drive the PCR reactions and the melt curve analysis. Nucleic acid extraction occurs within the FilmArray pouch using mechanical and chemical lysis followed by purification using standard magnetic bead technology. After extracting and purifying nucleic acids from the unprocessed sample, the FilmArray performs a nested multiplex PCR that is executed in two stages. During the first stage, the FilmArray performs a single, large volume, highly multiplexed reverse transcription PCR (rt-PCR) reaction. The products from first stage PCR are then diluted and combined with a fresh, primer-free master mix and a fluorescent double stranded DNA binding dye (LC Green® Plus, BioFire Diagnostics). The solution is then distributed to each well of the array. Array wells contain sets of primers designed specifically to amplify sequences internal to the PCR products generated during the first stage PCR reaction. The 2nd stage PCR, or nested PCR, is performed in singleplex fashion in each well of the array. At the conclusion of the 2nd stage PCR, the array is interrogated by melt curve analysis for the detection of signature amplicons denoting the presence of specific targets. A digital camera placed in front of the 2nd stage PCR captures fluorescent images of the PCR reactions and software interprets the data. The FilmArray Software automatically interprets the results of each DNA melt curve analysis and combines the data with the results of the internal pouch controls to provide a test result for each organism on the panel.

  • Annotation Protocol: Performance was evaluated by comparing FilmArray RP2 test results with those from an FDA-cleared multiplexed respiratory pathogen panel (main comparator method) and two analytically-validated PCR assays followed by bi-directional sequencing for B. parapertussis. Discrepant results were further investigated using independent molecular methods and/or comparator method retesting.

Preselected Archived Specimens Study:

  • Sample Size: 217 preselected archived retrospective clinical specimens were initially received.
    • Group 1: 197 specimens (containing analytes on the FDA-cleared multiplexed respiratory pathogens panel comparator method). 3 specimens excluded from analysis, resulting in 194 valid specimens.
    • Group 2: 20 specimens (containing B. parapertussis). All 20 specimens yielded valid results.
    • Total valid archived specimens: 214.
  • Data Source: Archived NPS in VTM specimens from BioFire. Selected because they previously tested positive for specific low-prevalence analytes.
  • Annotation Protocol: Composition/integrity of specimens confirmed with confirmatory molecular methods (PCR followed by bi-directional sequencing for B. parapertussis or an FDA-cleared multiplexed respiratory pathogen panel). All positive archived specimens not confirmed by the respective comparator method were excluded from performance calculation.

Contrived Specimens Study:

  • Sample Size: 50 contrived positive specimens (at 2x LoD and other concentrations spanning the clinically relevant range) and 50 un-spiked negative specimens.
  • Data Source: Prepared using individual unique residual NPS specimens that had previously tested negative by the FDA-cleared multiplexed respiratory pathogen panel. Spiking performed using multiple quantified isolates of Influenza A H1.
  • Annotation Protocol: Contrived positive specimens were prepared and randomized along with negative specimens such that the analyte status was unknown to users.

Indications for Use

510(k) Number (if known) K170604

Device Name

The FilmArray® Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2)

Indications for Use (Describe)

The FilmArray® Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) is a multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with FilmArray® 2.0 or FilmArray® Torch systems for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral and bacterial nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections. The following organism types and subtypes are identified using the FilmArray® RP2:

  • · Adenovirus
  • Coronavirus 229E
  • · Coronavirus HKU1
  • · Coronavirus NL63
  • Coronavirus OC43
  • Human Metapneumovirus
  • Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus
  • · Influenza A, including subtypes H1, H1-2009, and H3
  • Influenza B
  • Parainfluenza Virus 1
  • Parainfluenza Virus 2
  • Parainfluenza Virus 3
  • Parainfluenza Virus 4
  • · Respiratory Syncytial Virus

3

  • · Bordetella parapertussis (IS1001)
  • Bordetella pertussis (ptxP)
  • Chlamydia pneumoniae
  • Mycoplasma pneumoniae

The detection and identification of specific viral and bacterial nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of a respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information. The results of this test should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions.

Negative results in the setting of a respiratory illness may be due to infection with pathogens that are not detected by this test, or lower respiratory tract infection that may not be detected by a nasopharyngeal swab specimen. Positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms: the agent(s) detected by the FilmArray® RP2 may not be the definite cause of disease. Additional laboratory testing (e.g. bacterial and viral culture, immunofluorescence, and radiography) may be necessary when evaluating a patient with possible respiratory tract infection.

Due to the genetic similarity between Human Rhinovirus and Enterovirus, the FilmArray® RP2 cannot reliably differentiate them. A positive FilmArray® RP2 Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result should be followed up using an alternate method (e.g., cell culture or sequence analysis) if differentiation is required.

Performance characteristics for Influenza A were established when Influenza A H1-2009 and A H3 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. Performance of detecting Influenza A may vary if other Influenza A strains are circulating or a novel Influenza A virus emerges. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

Trade Name: FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2)

Regulation Number: 21 CFR 866.3980

Classification Name: Respiratory viral panel multiplex nucleic acid assay

Predicate Device:

K160068 - FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP)

Intended Use:

The FilmArray® Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) is a multiplexed nucleic acid test intended for use with FilmArray® 2.0 or FilmArray® Torch systems for the simultaneous qualitative detection and identification of multiple respiratory viral and bacterial nucleic acids in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) obtained from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections. The following organism types and subtypes are identified using the FilmArray RP2:

  • Adenovirus ●
  • Coronavirus 229E ●
  • Coronavirus HKU1
  • Coronavirus NL63
  • Coronavirus OC43

6

  • Human Metapneumovirus ●
  • Human Rhinovirus/Enterovirus
  • Influenza A, including subtypes H1, H1-2009, and H3
  • Influenza B
  • . Parainfluenza Virus 1
  • Parainfluenza Virus 2
  • Parainfluenza Virus 3
  • . Parainfluenza Virus 4
  • Respiratory Syncytial Virus
  • Bordetella parapertussis (IS 1001)
  • Bordetella pertussis (ptxP)
  • Chlamydia pneumoniae ●
  • Mycoplasma pneumoniae ●

The detection and identification of specific viral and bacterial nucleic acids from individuals exhibiting signs and/or symptoms of a respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and epidemiological information. The results of this test should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment, or other patient management decisions.

Negative results in the setting of a respiratory illness may be due to infection with pathogens that are not detected by this test, or lower respiratory tract infection that may not be detected by a nasopharyngeal swab specimen. Positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms: the agent(s) detected by the FilmArray RP2 may not be the definite cause of disease. Additional laboratory testing (e.g. bacterial and viral culture, immunofluorescence, and radiography) may be necessary when evaluating a patient with possible respiratory tract infection.

Due to the genetic similarity between Human Rhinovirus and Enterovirus, the FilmArray RP2 cannot reliably differentiate them. A positive FilmArray RP2 Rhinovirus/Enterovirus result should be followed up using an alternate method (e.g., cell culture or sequence analysis) if differentiation is required.

Performance characteristics for Influenza A were established when Influenza A H1-2009, A H1, and A H3 were the predominant Influenza A viruses in circulation. Performance of detecting Influenza A may vary if other Influenza A strains are circulating or a novel Influenza A virus emerges. If infection with a novel Influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent Influenza viruses and sent to state or local health departments for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens.

Device Description:

The FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) is designed to simultaneously identify 21 different potential pathogens (see Table 1) of respiratory tract infection from a single NPS specimen in a

7

time frame (~45 minutes) that allows the test results to be used in determining appropriate patient treatment and management. FilmArray RP2 is compatible with BioFire Diagnostics' (BioFire) PCR-based in vitro diagnostic FilmArray 2.0 and FilmArray Torch systems for infectious disease testing. A specific software module (i.e. FilmArray RP2 pouch module) is used to perform FilmArray RP2 testing on these systems.

Table 1. Pathogens Detected by the FilmArray RP2

A test is initiated by loading Hydration Solution into one port of the FilmArray pouch and an NPS sample (in transport media) mixed with the provided Sample Buffer into the other port of the FilmArray RP2 pouch and placing it in a FilmArray instrument. The pouch contains all of the reagents required for specimen testing and analysis in a freeze-dried format; the addition of Hydration Solution and Sample/Buffer Mix rehydrates the reagents. After the pouch is prepared, the FilmArray Software guides the user though the steps of placing the pouch into the instrument, scanning the pouch barcode, entering the sample identification, and initiating the run.

The FilmArray instrument contains a coordinated system of inflatable bladders and seal points, which act on the pouch to control the movement of liquid between the pouch blisters. When a bladder is inflated over a reagent blister, it forces liquid from the blister into connecting channels. Alternatively, when a seal is placed over a connecting channel it acts as a valve to open or close a channel. In addition, electronically-controlled pneumatic pistons are positioned over multiple plungers in order to deliver the rehydrated reagents into the blisters at the appropriate times. Two Peltier devices control heating and cooling of the pouch to drive the PCR reactions and the melt curve analysis.

Nucleic acid extraction occurs within the FilmArray pouch using mechanical and chemical lysis followed by purification using standard magnetic bead technology. After extracting and purifying nucleic acids from the unprocessed sample, the FilmArray performs a nested multiplex PCR that is executed in two stages. During the first stage, the FilmArray performs a single, large volume, highly multiplexed reverse transcription PCR (rt-PCR) reaction. The products from first

8

stage PCR are then diluted and combined with a fresh, primer-free master mix and a fluorescent double stranded DNA binding dye (LC Green® Plus, BioFire Diagnostics). The solution is then distributed to each well of the array. Array wells contain sets of primers designed specifically to amplify sequences internal to the PCR products generated during the first stage PCR reaction. The 2nd stage PCR, or nested PCR, is performed in singleplex fashion in each well of the array. At the conclusion of the 2nd stage PCR, the array is interrogated by melt curve analysis for the detection of signature amplicons denoting the presence of specific targets. A digital camera placed in front of the 2nd stage PCR captures fluorescent images of the PCR reactions and software interprets the data.

The FilmArray Software automatically interprets the results of each DNA melt curve analysis and combines the data with the results of the internal pouch controls to provide a test result for each organism on the panel.

Substantial Equivalence:

The FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 is substantially equivalent to the FilmArray Respiratory Panel (K160068), which was most recently cleared on February 8, 2016 and determined to be a Class II device.

Table 2 compares the FilmArray Respiratory Panel 2 (RP2) to the FilmArray Respiratory Panel (RP) and outlines the similarities and differences between the two tests.

Summary of Performance Data

Clinical Performance

The clinical performance of the FilmArray RP2 was established during a multi-center study conducted at three geographically distinct U.S. study sites during portions of the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 respiratory illness seasons. A total of 1635 residual NPS specimens in viral transport media (VTM) were acquired for the prospective clinical study. Between January and March 2016. specimens were prospectively collected from all comers meeting the study eligibility criteria and immediately frozen (N=695 specimens) for later testing as prospective archived/frozen (Category II) specimens. Between September 2016, specimens were prospectively collected from all comers meeting the study eligibility criteria and tested fresh (N=940 specimens) as prospective fresh (Category I) specimens. Category II specimens were distributed to study sites beginning in September 2016. Study sites also began testing Category I specimens at this time. At each site, Category II specimens were thawed and tested according to the study procedures as time permitted over the remaining duration of the clinical study. A total of 23 prospective specimens (Category I and II specimens) were excluded from the final performance data analysis due to incompliance with the study protocol. The most common reasons for specimen exclusion were that a valid external control was not completed on the day of testing, that specimens were tested outside the 3-day refrigerated storage window, or that the specimen was found to not meet the inclusion criteria after the specimen had been enrolled. The final data set consisted of 1612 prospective specimens. Table 3 provides a summary of demographic information for the 1612 specimens included in the prospective study.

"The differences in LoD concentration between Adenovines species (5.0E-02 - 1.0E-01 TCD-J/mL) or between Human Rhinovirus (1.0E-01 - 3.0E+02TCID=ymL) may not indicate actual different species or serotypes, but ather the variability of the TCD-measurement method.

" A cultured isolate of Coronavirus HKU1 was not available for testing. LoD for Coronavirus HKU1 was theremined by testing dilutions of a clinical NPS specimen known to contain the virus. The anount of viral RNA copies/mL) was determined by real-ime RT-PCR against a standard curve.

  • IS/001 sequences can be present in more than one copy per cell, so the relationship between CFU/mL and copies/mL may vary from strain and culture to culture. LoD was determined based on the copy number of IS 001 measured by an independent quantitative real-ime PCR assay and for this culture.

The copy number of Mycoplasma pneumoniae was determined by a multicopy assay (16S rRNA) and may not accurately reflect the number of copies detected by the single-copy FilmArray RP2 gene target.

Note: LoD concentrations of the cultured viruses and obligate intracelleular bacteria (C. pneumoniae and M. pneumoniae) are provided in units of TCID-6 (50% Tissue Culture Infectious Dose). TCID50 is an indirect measure of viral or bacterial concentration based on infectivity and cytotoxicity and will therefore vary considerably depending on technique and methodology (including cell type, culture media and conditions, cytotoxicity of the virus, etc.). It is not appropriate to make determinations on relative sensitivity of different molecular assays for detection of viruses and bacteria based on LoD values measured in TCID50/mL

Inclusivity

Analytical reactivity (inclusivity) was evaluated with a collection of 177 isolates that represent temporal and geographic diversity of FilmArray RP2 analytes, including relevant species, strains, serotypes, or genotypes. All isolates tested were detected by the FilmArray RP2 at concentrations within 10× LoD. When possible, in silico analysis of sequence data was used to make predictions of assay reactivity for less common strains or serotypes that were not tested but that may be detected by the FilmArray RP2 (Table 11 - Table 22).

20

RP2 influenza A assays will react variably with non-human influenza A viruses and rarely encountered human influenza A viruses that are not H1, H1-2009 or H3; generally producing Influenza A Equivocal or Influenza A (no subtype detected) results.

Note: FilmArray RP2 Influenza A (subtype) and Influenza B assays are predicted to react with attenuated viruses used in vaccines.

Exclusivity

The potential for non-specific amplification and detection by the FilmArray RP2 assays was evaluated in silico by sequence analysis and testing of high concentrations of organisms in contrived samples. A total of 22 on-panel organisms were tested to assess the potential for intrapanel cross-reactivity and 50 off-panel organisms were tested to evaluate panel specificity. Offpanel organisms included normal respiratory flora and pathogens that may be present in NPS

25

specimens as well as near-neighbors or species genetically related to the organisms detected by the FilmArray RP2. The on-panel and off-panel organisms tested are shown in Table 23.

The final concentration of analyte in the sample (typically at least 1×106 CFU/mL for bacteria and fungi and at least 1×10 TCID0.05 by Fisher's exact test) and therefore do not increatent variance in precision of the FilmArray RP2 Bordeella parapertusis (IS1001) results.

The reproducibility (standard deviation) of melting temperature (Tm) for the amplification products generated by the FilmArray RP2 was also evaluated, with a Tm standard deviation for

each assay of ± 0.5℃ or less observed within and between the FilmArray 2.0 and FilmArray Torch systems (Table 27).
