AI/ML Overview

The provided FDA 510(k) summary for the EliA CENP, EliA U1RNP, and EliA RNP70 Immunoassays on the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument describes analytical performance studies, not typically studies involving human readers or expert adjudication in the context of AI/ML devices. Therefore, several of the requested sections below are marked as "Not Applicable (N/A)" because this document pertains to an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay and instrument combination, not an AI/ML-driven imaging or diagnostic device requiring human reader studies or expert adjudication of image-based ground truth.

Here's the breakdown based on the provided document:


Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance for EliA CENP, EliA U1RNP, and EliA RNP70 Immunoassays on Phadia 2500/5000

The acceptance criteria for this device are demonstrated through various analytical performance metrics, primarily comparing the new instrument platform (Phadia 2500/5000) to a predicate device (Phadia 250). The performance data below focuses on precision, linearity, detection limits, and method comparison.

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document defines "acceptance criteria" through the results of pre-specified analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, and method comparison), demonstrating the new device's equivalence to the predicate. The "acceptance criteria" are explicitly stated for the method comparison as "the slope for the regression lines should be 0.9 - 1.1 for single replicate to single replicate and intercept close to 0." For Other performance characteristics, the "acceptance" is implied by the presentation of the results, indicating they met the manufacturer's internal standards for demonstrating substantial equivalence.

Performance CharacteristicAcceptance Criteria (as implied or stated)Reported Device Performance (Phadia 2500/5000)
Precision (Total %CV)Not explicitly stated; likely internal target for reproducibility.EliA CENP: Ranging from 6.0% to 19.6% (depending on mean concentration). EliA U1RNP: Ranging from 6.4% to 24.4% (depending on mean concentration). EliA RNP70: Ranging from 8.1% to 18.4% (depending on mean concentration).
Linearity (Slope)Implied excellent correlation (R² close to 1.00) and slope near 1.00.EliA CENP: Slopes from 0.99 to 1.04, R² 0.99 to 1.00. EliA U1RNP: Slopes from 1.00 to 1.04, R² 0.99 to 1.00. EliA RNP70: Slopes from 1.00 to 1.02, R² 1.00. (All 95% CIs for slope include 1.00 or are very close).
Detection LimitsNot explicitly stated; based on CLSI EP17-A guidelines for LoB, LoD, LoQ.EliA CENP: LoB 0.2 EliA U/mL, LoD 0.4 EliA U/mL, LoQ 0.7 EliA U/mL. EliA U1RNP: LoB 0.2 EliA U/mL, LoD 0.5 EliA U/mL, LoQ 1.1 EliA U/mL. EliA RNP70: LoB 0.2 EliA U/mL, LoD 0.3 EliA U/mL, LoQ 0.9 EliA U/mL.
Method Comparison (Slope vs. Predicate)Slope 0.9 - 1.1. Intercept close to 0.EliA CENP: Slopes 0.98 to 1.04; Intercepts -0.40 to 0.44. EliA U1RNP: Slopes 0.92 to 1.02; Intercepts 0.03 to 0.98. EliA RNP70: Slopes 1.00 to 1.04; Intercepts 0.29 to 0.35. (All met the acceptance criteria).
Method Comparison (Agreement vs. Predicate)Not explicitly stated, but high Positive Percent Agreement (PPA) and Negative Percent Agreement (NPA) values.EliA CENP: PPA 98.6-100%, NPA 88.2-100%. EliA U1RNP: PPA 96.8-100%, NPA 94.1-100%. EliA RNP70: PPA 98.6-100%, NPA 80.8-97.4%. (Ranges depend on equivocal results consideration).

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size (Method Comparison): More than 100 samples for each EliA test (CENP, U1RNP, RNP70).
  • Sample Size (Precision): 5 different samples were tested for each immunoassay. Each sample was tested in four replicates/run, over 21 runs (3 instruments x 7 runs), resulting in 84 replicates per sample.
  • Sample Size (Linearity): Four patient serum samples were diluted for each immunoassay.
  • Sample Size (Detection Limit): One blank sample (66 determinations) and three low-level samples (66 determinations) were used for LoD/LoQ studies for each immunoassay.
  • Sample Size (Expected Values/Reference Range): 400 serum samples from an apparently healthy Caucasian population for each immunoassay.
  • Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the patient samples, but the reference populations for "Expected Values" are described as "Caucasian population obtained from a blood bank." The studies described appear to be prospective analytical studies conducted by the manufacturer to support the 510(k) submission for the new instrument platform.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

  • N/A. This is an IVD device measuring antibody levels, not an AI/ML device that requires expert human interpretation of images or clinical data for ground truth. The "ground truth" for these tests is the value measured by the predicate device and the analytical standards (e.g., linearity standards, controls).

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • N/A. No expert adjudication process is described as this is an IVD device.

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

  • N/A. This is an IVD device, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool involving human readers of images or other complex data. The comparison is between an older instrument (Phadia 250) and a new instrument (Phadia 2500/5000) running the same assays.

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

  • N/A. This is an IVD device, not an AI algorithm. The performance described is the standalone analytical performance of the instrument/assay combination.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • For the method comparison studies, the "ground truth" or reference method was the predicate device (Phadia 250 instrument) running the same assays. The goal was to show substantial equivalence between the new and predicate instruments.
  • For analytical performance characteristics (precision, linearity, detection limits), the ground truth is established through standard laboratory practices using calibrators, controls, and reference materials as per CLSI guidelines, which are themselves traceable to established measurement procedures.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • N/A. This document describes performance validation of an IVD assay/instrument system, not the training of an AI/ML model. Therefore, there is no "training set" in the AI/ML sense. The device is a measurement system; it does not "learn" from data.

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

  • N/A. As there is no AI/ML training set, this question is not applicable. The device's "ground truth" (its measurement accuracy) is established through rigorous analytical validation studies using controls, calibrators, and comparison to validated predicate methods, not through a "training set" of patient data.

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 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 human recombinant centromere protein B, human recombinant RNP (RNP70, A, C) or with human recombinant RNP (70 kDa) protein. 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 IgG antibodies (EliA IgG Conjugate) are added to form an antibodyconjugate 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 assay directly measures the amount of antibody of interest bound to the antigen coating the EliA well, therefore the higher the value of fluorescent signal detected by the instrument, the higher the amount of antibody bound and detected in the sample tested. 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 a total of 21 runs (3 instruments x 7 runs).

The study was performed with 1 run/day over a period of 7 days. Each sample was tested in four replicates/run giving in total 84 replicates per sample. The data was calculated against the calibration curve from Day 1.

  • e. Analytical specificity:
    Interference: Previously reviewed in K082759 and K083117.

Carry-over: Phadia 2500/5000 instruments use disposable tips for pipetting samples and a separate pipette for the conjugate, therefore carry-over from samples to conjugate is impossible.

  • f. Assay cut-off:
    The ranges (negative, equivocal, positive) recommended for the evaluation of the test results were derived from the clinical studies (s. K082759 and K083117).

§ 866.5100 Antinuclear antibody immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. An antinuclear antibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoimmune antibodies in serum, other body fluids, and tissues that react with cellular nuclear constituents (molecules present in the nucleus of a cell, such as ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid, or nuclear proteins). The measurements aid in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (a multisystem autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack the victim's own tissues), hepatitis (a liver disease), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome (arthritis with inflammation of the eye, eyelid, and salivary glands), and systemic sclerosis (chronic hardening and shrinking of many body tissues).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
