Note: The document primarily outlines how the studies were performed and what the results were, rather than explicit pre-defined quantitative acceptance criteria for all metrics. For method comparison, it states: "The acceptance criteria for the method comparison (the slope for the regression lines should be 0.9 - 1.1 for single replicate to single replicate and intercept close to 0) were met." For LoQ, it mentions "a target uncertainty goal of 20%." For PPA/NPA/TPA, the high reported values and FDA clearance imply acceptance.

2. Sample Size and Data Provenance for Test Set

  • Method Comparison (Instrument Comparison):

    • Sample Size: More than 100 serum samples (for each immunoassay).
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but serum samples were used. It is implied to be from patient populations relevant to the intended use. The samples included "≥20% of the samples within ±25% of the medical decision point," suggesting a distribution covering diagnostically relevant ranges.
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Not specified, but typically such comparison studies use retrospectively collected samples for method validation.
  • Precision/Reproducibility:

    • Sample Size: 5 serum samples. Each sample tested in 21 runs (3 instruments x 7 runs) with 4 replicates per run, totaling 84 replicates per serum sample.
    • Data Provenance: Serum samples. Country of origin not specified.
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Retrospective, as these are pre-collected serum samples.
  • Linearity/Assay Reportable Range:

    • Sample Size: 4 patient serum samples.
    • Data Provenance: Patient serum samples. Country of origin not specified.
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Retrospective.
  • Detection Limit (LoB, LoD, LoQ):

    • Sample Size:
      • LoB: One blank sample measured in 33 replicates in each of two runs.
      • LoD & LoQ: Three low-level serum samples measured in 11 replicates in each of two runs.
    • Data Provenance: Blank samples and low-level serum samples. Country of origin not specified.
    • Retrospective/Prospective: Retrospective.

3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth for the Test Set

  • This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay, not an AI or imaging device requiring human expert adjudication for ground truth. The "ground truth" for these studies refers to the reference method's result (e.g., predicate device Phadia 250 for method comparison) or the known characteristics of the samples (e.g., spiking for linearity, known concentration for precision controls).
  • Therefore, the concept of "number of experts" or their "qualifications" for establishing ground truth in the context of an IVD assay's analytical performance studies is not applicable here.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Not applicable as this is an IVD immunoassay, not an AI or imaging device requiring human subjective interpretation and adjudication. The "adjudication" is based on instrumental readings and comparison to defined calibrators and predicate device results.

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

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This is an IVD immunoassay, not a device that involves human "readers" interpreting cases in the context of medical imaging or clinical decision-making with or without AI assistance.
  • The study involved comparing instrumental results of the new Phadia 2500/5000 platform to the predicate Phadia 250 platform.

6. Standalone Performance Study

  • Yes, standalone performance studies were done. The precision, linearity, and detection limit studies are examples of standalone performance evaluations of the EliA immunoassays on the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument.
  • The primary scope of this 510(k) submission was to introduce these previously cleared assays onto a new instrument platform (Phadia 2500/5000), meaning the "algorithm" (assay chemistry and measurement principle) itself was already established as effective and safe. The studies here demonstrate that this established assay performs equivalently on the new instrument.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Method Comparison: The predicate device's results (EliA ß2-Glycoprotein I IgA on Phadia 250 instrument, K112414; EliA Cardiolipin IgA on Phadia 250 instrument, K131821) served as the "ground truth" or reference for assessing equivalence of the new instrument platform.
  • Precision and Linearity: The values obtained from the predicate device or a well-characterized reference are used to establish control ranges and expected values. For linearity, known dilutions are used against expected concentrations.
  • Detection Limit: Controlled blank samples and low-level spiked/characterized samples are used.
  • Clinical Studies (reference): For clinical utility and cut-off determination mentioned as reviewed in K112414 and K131821, the ground truth would have been clinical diagnosis (e.g., confirmed APS or SLE) and outcomes data. This summary itself does not include new clinical ground truth studies for K181329.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This type of submission (510(k) for a new instrument platform for existing assays) generally does not involve a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI.
  • For IVD assays, optimization and method development would involve numerous samples, but these are part of product development rather than a formal "training set" that would be distinct from a "test set" in the way AI/ML studies define them. The stability and calibration curves are established using a series of known calibrators and controls.

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

  • Not applicable in the AI/ML sense. For standard IVD assay development, ground truth for calibrators and controls is established through rigorous characterization, often against international reference materials or highly purified substances, and validated using established analytical methods and statistical approaches. The clinical cut-offs were derived from "clinical studies (s. K112414 and K131821)", meaning the previous submissions involved clinical data and patient diagnoses to define the clinically relevant ranges.

Risk for carry-overThe warning "DO NOT REUSE"in the Phadia 250 DFU for EliAConjugates is due to the fact thata low risk of conjugatecontamination by carry-over fromsamples was identified. In orderto reduce the risk, the single usestatement for the conjugate wasincluded in the Phadia 250 DFU.When running EliA tests on thePhadia 2500/5000 instruments,there is no need for this warningstatement because theseinstruments use disposable tipsfor pipetting samples and aseparate pipette for theconjugate, and carry-over fromsamples to conjugate isimpossible.
Loading of EliACarriersEliA carriers are loaded manuallyon the Loading Tray from wherethey can be processed directly ortransferred to the cooled storagecompartment.The Phadia 2500/5000instruments do not have such aLoading Tray. The EliA carriersare loaded into racks which aredirectly transferred to the cooledstorage compartment
Barcode readerThe Phadia 250 instrument hasa built-in barcode reader at thefront of the instrument, but theoperator needs to scan thebarcodes manually by showingthe reagents to the barcodereader. Alternatively, theoperator can also enter thecharacters below the barcodemanually.The Phadia 2500/5000instruments dispose of a built-inbarcode reader, and thereagents are on a moving beltwhich conveys them past thebarcode reader. The lot-specificinformation will be readautomatically by the instrumentduring loading.

The EliA wells are molded cups comparable to excised wells from a microtiter plate. They are made of polystyrene and are coated with the respective antigen. The wells are at the same time a holder of the coupled antigen for convenient automation and a reaction chamber with reaction/washing solution handling based on pipetting to add and aspiration to remove liquids.

The EliA wells are coated with bovine cardiolipin antigen, or with human β2-Glycoprotein I antigen. If present in the patient's specimen, antibodies to these proteins bind to the specific antigen. After washing away non-bound antibodies, enzyme-labeled antibodies against human IgA antibodies (EliA IgA Conjugate) are added to form an antibody-conjugate complex. After incubation, non-bound conjugate is washed away and the bound complex is incubated with a Development Solution. After stopping the reaction, the fluorescence in the reaction mixture is measured. The higher the response value, the more specific IgA is present in the specimen. To evaluate test results, the response for patient samples is compared directly to the response for calibrators.

M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):

  1. Analytical performance:

a. Precision/Reproducibility:

To determine the precision of the assay, the variability was assessed in a study with five serum samples totaling in 21 runs (3 instruments x 7 runs). The study was performed with 1 run/day over a period of 7 days. Each serum sample was tested in four replicates/run giving in total 84 replicates per serum sample. The data was calculated against the calibration curve from Day 1.

We included only one lot of EliA ß2-Glycoprotein I IgA Well and EliA Cardiolipin IgA Well on the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument, as data for inter-lot-variation has already been shown in K112414 and K131821.

N. Proposed Labeling:

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

O. Conclusion:

All available data support that both instrument platforms, Phadia 250 and Phadia 2500/5000 perform substantially equivalent when using the EliA ß2-Glycoprotein I IgA and EliA Cardiolipin IgA immunoassays.

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

§ 866.5660 Multiple autoantibodies immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
