Intended Use

The BD MAX™ CTGCTV2 assay, performed on the BD MAX™ System, incorporates automated DNA extraction and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for the direct, qualitative detection of DNA from:

  • Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) ●
  • Neisseria gonorrhoeae (GC) ●
  • Trichomonas vaginalis (TV) ●

The assay may be used for detection of CT, GC and/or TV DNA in patient- or clinician-collected vaginal swab specimens (in a clinical setting), and male and female urine specimens. The assay may also be used for the detection of CT and GC DNA in endocervical swab and Liquid-Based Cytology (LBC) specimens in PreservCyt® Solution using an aliquot that is removed prior to processing for the ThinPrep™ Pap test.

The assay is indicated for use with asymptomatic and symptomatic individuals to aid in the diagnosis of chlamydial urogenital disease, gonococcal urogenital disease and/or trichomoniasis.

Device Description

The BD MAX System and the BD MAX CTGCTV2 are comprised of an instrument with associated hardware and accessories, disposable microfluidic cartridges, master mixes, unitized reagent strips, and extraction reagents. The instrument automates sample preparation including target lysis, DNA extraction and concentration, reagent rehydration, and target nucleic acid amplification and detection using real-time PCR. The assay includes a Sample Processing Control (SPC) that is present in the Extraction Tube. The SPC monitors DNA extraction steps, thermal cycling steps, reagent integrity and the presence of inhibitory substances. The BD MAX System software automatically interprets test results. A test result may be called as POS, NEG, UNR, IND or INC for each of the assay's targets, based on the amplification status of the target and of the Sample Processing Control. IND (Indeterminate) or INC (Incomplete) results are due to BD MAX System level failure.

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

The clinical performance study included 2,547 female subjects and 1,159 male subjects from North America.
The study was prospective, as indicated by the enrollment of subjects and collection of specimens for the trial.
The data provenance is North America, specifically from "Twelve geographically diverse clinical sites."

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

The document does not explicitly state the "number of experts" used to establish ground truth or their individual qualifications (e.g., radiologist with 10 years of experience). Instead, the ground truth was established using an algorithmic approach with multiple FDA-cleared NAATs (Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests). This is a common and accepted method for determining the true infection status in diagnostic studies for infectious diseases, rather than relying on individual expert interpretation.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The adjudication method for establishing the Patient Infected Status (PIS) was as follows:

  • Female PIS for C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae: Established by testing urine and cervical specimens with two different FDA cleared NAATs. Females were designated as infected if at least two different reference NAATs were positive for urine and cervical specimens. For swab specimens, if only urine was positive with two comparator NAATs (and swabs were negative with both), they were considered non-infected.
  • Male PIS for C. trachomatis and N. gonorrhoeae: Established by testing urine specimens using up to three different FDA cleared NAATs. Males were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were positive. They were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were negative.
  • Female PIS for T. vaginalis: Established by testing vaginal specimens with two different FDA cleared molecular tests, across three different instrument platforms. Females were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were positive. They were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were negative.
  • Male PIS for T. vaginalis: Established by testing urine specimens using up to three different FDA cleared NAATs. Males were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were positive. They were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were negative.
  • Female Urine CCA for C. trachomatis, N. gonorrhoeae, and T. vaginalis: Urine samples were used from up to three reference NAATs. Designated as positive if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were positive, and negative if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were negative.

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

No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This type of study is more common for image-based diagnostic aids where human interpretation is a primary component, and the AI assists human readers. For an automated molecular diagnostic assay like the BD MAX CTGCTV2, the device's performance is standalone.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance

Yes, the study primarily presents standalone performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay. The assay is an "automated DNA extraction and real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR)" system, and its interpretation is done "automatically" by the BD MAX System software. The clinical performance tables (Table 21, 22, 23) reflect the algorithm-only performance against the established PIS.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The ground truth used was expert consensus derived through an algorithm based on multiple FDA-cleared Nucleic Acid Amplification Tests (NAATs). This is a common and robust method for establishing ground truth in molecular diagnostics, as these reference NAATs are highly sensitive and specific.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not explicitly mention a separate "training set" sample size for the development of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay. This is typical for a 510(k) submission for an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device, where the focus is on the validation of the finalized product's performance rather than the detailed development (training) process. The analytical studies (LoD, inclusivity, specificity) demonstrate the characteristics of the assay, which would have been refined during development.

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

As no specific training set and its ground truth establishment are detailed, this information is not available in the provided text. The analytical studies like Limits of Detection (LoD), inclusivity, and analytical specificity use well-characterized microbial suspensions and established methods for their testing. These analytical studies are part of the broader validation, implying that the assay's design was based on such principles during its development.

Special Instrument Requirements: BD MAX System

Device Description:

The BD MAX System and the BD MAX CTGCTV2 are comprised of an instrument with associated hardware and accessories, disposable microfluidic cartridges, master mixes, unitized reagent strips, and extraction reagents. The instrument automates sample preparation including target lysis, DNA extraction and concentration, reagent rehydration, and target nucleic acid amplification and detection using real-time PCR. The assay includes a Sample Processing Control (SPC) that is present in the Extraction Tube. The SPC monitors DNA extraction steps, thermal cycling steps, reagent integrity and the presence of inhibitory substances. The BD MAX System software automatically interprets test results.

{6}------------------------------------------------

as POS, NEG, UNR, IND or INC for each of the assay's targets, based on the amplification status of the target and of the Sample Processing Control. IND (Indeterminate) or INC (Incomplete) results are due to BD MAX System level failure.

Test Principle:

The BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay is designed for use with the applicable BD MAX specimen collection and transport devices, including the BD MAX™ Urine Transport Kit, the BD MAX™ LBC Sample Buffer Tubes or the BD MAX™ 3-in-1 Swab Collection Kit. The specimen is collected from the patient and transported to the testing laboratory using the appropriate transport device under conditions of time and temperature that have been determined to maintain the integrity of the target nucleic acids.

LBC samples are pre-warmed on the BD Pre-warm Heater hefore testing on the BD MAX System. None of the other specimen types undergo a pre-warm step. The Sample Buffer Tubes are recapped with a septum cap prior to processing on the BD MAX System. A worklist is created and the Sample Buffer Tube, the BD MAX CTGCTV2 Unitized Reagent Strip and the BD MAX PCR Cartridge are loaded onto the BD MAX System. The BD MAX System automates sample preparation, including target organism lysis, DNA extraction and concentration, reagent rehydration, and target nucleic acid amplification and detection using real-time PCR. The BD MAX System performs results interpretation automatically. The assay also includes a Sample Processing Control (SPC) that is present in the Extraction Tube. The Sample Processing Control monitors DNA extraction steps, thermal cycling steps, reagent integrity and presence of inhibitory substances.

Nucleic acids that are released from the target organisms as a result of cell lysis during the extraction process are captured on magnetic affinity beads. together with the bound nucleic acids, are washed using Wash Buffer and the nucleic acids are eluted by a combination of heat and pH. Eluted DNA is neutralized using Neutralization Buffer and transferred to the Master Mix to rehydrate the PCR reagents. After reconstitution, the BD MAX System dispenses a fixed volume of PCR-ready solution containing extracted nucleic acids into the BD MAX PCR Cartridge. Microvalves in the BD MAX PCR Cartridge are sealed by the system prior to initiating PCR in order to contain the amplification mixture, thus preventing evaporation and contamination.

The BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay is comprised of two targets for Chlamydia trachomatis (detected on the same optical channel), two targets for Neisseria gonorrhoeae (detected on two different optical channels) and one target for Trichomonas vaginalis (detected on one optical channel). Only one Chlamydia trachomatis target is required to be positive in order to report a positive result. Both Neisseria gonorrhoeae targets are required to be positive in order to report a positive result. The amplified DNA targets are detected using hydrolysis (TaqMan®) probes, labeled at one end with a fluorescent reporter dye (fluorophore), and at the other end, with a quencher moiety. Probes labeled with different fluorophores are used to detect amplicons for target analytes and the Sample Processing Control in five different optical channels of the BD MAX System. When the probes are in their native state, the fluorescence of the fluorophore is quenched due to its proximity to the quencher. However, in the presence of target DNA, the probes hybridize to their complementary sequences and are hydrolyzed by the 5 - 3' exonuclease activity of the DNA polymerase as it synthesizes the nascent strand along the DNA template. As a result, the fluorophores are separated from the quencher molecules and fluorescence is emitted. The BD MAX System monitors these signals at the end of each cycle and interprets the data at the end of the reaction to provide qualitative test results for each analyte (i.e., positive or negative).

For the Site-to-Site reproducibility study, three sites (2 external and one internal) were provided the same panels as described for the Precision study, above. Each site performed testing on eight distinct days (consecutive or not), wherein each day, two panels were tested by two technologists (alternating operators each day).

All targets ranged from 99.6% to 100% for TN, 11.5% to 78.1% for HN, 97.9% to 100% for LP and 97.9% to 100% for MP categories (Table 3). Ct score, internal criterion used to determine a final assay result, was selected as an additional means of assessing assay reproducibility. Overall mean Ct score values with variance components (SD and %CV) are shown in Tables Table 4 through Table 6.

For the Lot-to-Lot reproducibility study, two operators each completed a single run of each panel member on two instruments for each of three lots of reagents over an 8-day period, at one testing site. The panels used were the same as described under the Precision heading, above. Results from one reagent lot of the site to site reproducibility study were used to comprise data for one lot of reagents for the Lot-to-Lot study.

The overall Lot-to-Lot reproducibility percent agreement across all targets ranged from 99.4% to 100% for TN, 10.4% to 75.0% for HN, 95.8% to 100% for LP and 95.8% to 100% for MP categories (Table 7). The Lot-to-Lot quantitative reproducibility according to Ct score is also shown in Table 8 to Table 10.

External negative control

Use a non-inoculated BD MAX Swab Sample Buffer Tube

The assay includes a Specimen Processing Control (SPC) that is present in the Extraction Tube. The SPC monitors DNA extraction steps, thermal cycling steps, reagent integrity and the presence of inhibitory substances.

Analytical Sensitivity

The analytical sensitivity/Limit of Detection (LoD) in urine, vaginal swab and PreservCyt LBC specimen matrix was determined by preparing microbial suspensions from each of two (2) representative strains of the target organisms inoculated into pooled female urine, pooled vaginal swab and pooled PreservCyt LBC matrix in sample buffer with multiple concentrations of each representative strain. Each matrix suspension was tested with at least 20 replicates per LoD concentration across 3 different reagent lots. Analytical sensitivity (LoD), defined as the lowest concentration at which at least 95% of all replicates tested positive, is represented in Table 13.

Analytical Specificity

The BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay was performed on samples containing phylogenetically related microorganisms likely to be found in urogenital specimens (Table 17). The bacterial cells, yeasts, viruses and parasites were tested in the Sample Buffer Tube at 2x106 cells/mL, genomic DNA cp/mL, or EB/mL, and viruses were tested at 1x105 viral particles or genomic equivalents/mL.

98% of bacterial strains, yeasts, parasites and viruses tested produced negative results with the BD MAX CTGCTV2. Pentatrichomonas hominis (commensal of the large intestine) produced positive results at a concentration ≥ 1.00 x 105 TV/mL for Trichomonas vaginalis and negative results for all other targets with the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay. Trichomonas tenax (commensal of the oral cavity) produced positive results at a concentration ≥ 1.88 TV/mL for Trichomonas vaginalis and negative results for all other targets with the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay.

Carryover/Cross-Contamination

High positive samples containing Chlamydia trachomatis (VR-879, Serovar H) spiked into pooled PreservCyt LBC matrix at a concentration of >1 x 10 EB/mL were processed with negative samples consisting of LBC Sample Buffer Tubes without any target analyte. Twelve (12) replicates of the high positive panel member and 12 replicates of the negative panel member were tested in 18 runs by alternating negative and positive samples, using three BD MAX instruments for a total of 216 positive and 216 negative samples tested. Of the 216 negative samples tested, two false positive results were obtained (0.93%, 95% CI: 0.25% - 3.31%).

Mixed Infection/Competitive Interference

Three test samples prepared in pooled clinical matrix (swab, urine and PreservCyt LBC) each containing one of the target organisms (Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Trichomonas vaginalis) at 1.5X their respective LoD, were tested with a high target mix comprised of the other two BD MAX CTGCTV2 analytes at a concentration ≥ 1x10 EB, cells or TV/mL to simulate mixed infections. The samples were tested in 20 replicates. All three low target organisms were successfully detected at ≥95% by the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay in the presence of the other two organisms at high concentrations in urine, vaginal swab and PreservCyt LBC specimens. When assessed across all organisms and sample types, the observed Ct score shift ranged from -0.1 to 4.5 for Chlamydia

{21}------------------------------------------------

trachomatis, from -1.8 to 5.8 for Neisseria gonorrhoeae, and from 1.0 to 4.8 for Trichomonas vaginalis.

Clinical Performance Studies

Twelve geographically diverse clinical sites in North America participated in the clinical trial to evaluate the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay. Two thousand five hundred and forty-seven (2,547) female subjects and 1.159 male subjects representing ages 18 and over were enrolled from sexually transmitted disease (STD). OB/GYN, and family planning clinics. Subjects were classified as symptomatic if they reported symptoms such as dysuria, urethral discharge, itching, odor, coital pain/difficulty/bleeding, testicular or scrotum pain/swelling, abnormal vaginal discharge, or pelvic/ uterine/adnexal pain. Subjects were classified as asymptomatic if they did not report these symptoms.

Eight specimens were collected from each eligible female subject: one first-catch urine, two randomized patient-collected vaginal swab specimens, two randomized clinician-collected vaginal swab specimens, two randomized endocervical swab specimens and one PreservCyt LBC specimen (collected using either the cervical broom or brush/spatula). One urine specimen was collected from each of the eligible male subjects. Samples were prepared for BD MAX CTGCTV2 and reference testing in accordance with the appropriate specimen collection kit package insert instructions.

All specimens from enrolled subjects were tested across five clinical trial testing sites. Samples with initial non-reportable (Unresolved, Indeterminate or Incomplete) results were repeated from the BD MAX Sample Buffer Tube. Following a valid repeat test, 0.3% (38/13,649) specimens remained nonreportable and were excluded from the sensitivity and specificity statistical analysis. The final data analysis included 2,536 evaluable female subjects and 1,149 evaluable male subjects. The estimates of performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay for Chlamydia trachomatis included: 2,508 patientcollected vaginal swabs, 2,502 clinician-collected vaginal swabs, 2,512 endocervical swabs, 2,469 PreservCyt LBC, 2,416 female urine and 1,140 male urine specimens. The estimates of performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay for Neisseria gonorrhoeae included: 2.506 patient-collected vaginal swabs, 2,503 clinician-collected vaginal swabs, 2,511 endocervical swabs, 2,470 PreservCyt LBC, 2,419 female urine and 1,142 male urine specimens. The estimates of performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay for Trichomonas vaginalis included: 1,742 patient-collected vaginal swabs, 1,732 cliniciancollected vaginal swabs, 1,646 female urine and 1,141 male urine specimens. Exclusions included but were not limited to: missing specimens and/or reference test results, transport, collection, shipping, and/or processing errors.

Clinical Performance of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae

The clinical performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis and Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections in females and males was calculated compared to a Patient Infected Status (PIS). The female PIS was established by testing urine and cervical specimens with two different FDA cleared NAATs (Nucleic Acid Amplification Test) where female subjects were designated as infected if at least two different reference NAATs were positive for urine and cervical specimens. For the purpose of data analysis, females who tested positive with the two comparator NAATs in urine only (negative in swabs with both NAATs), were considered non-infected when calculating the performance of the assay for swab specimens. The male PIS was established by testing urine specimens using up to three different FDA cleared NAATs where male subjects were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were positive. Subjects were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were negative. The resulting performance is shown in Table 21.

Clinical Performance of Trichomonas vaginalis

The clinical performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 for the detection of Trichomonas vaginalis infection in females and males was calculated compared to a PIS. The female PIS was established by testing vaginal specimens with two different FDA cleared molecular tests, across three different instrument platforms, where female subjects were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were positive. Subjects were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were negative. The male PIS was established by testing urine specimens using up to three different FDA cleared NAATs where male subjects were designated as infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were positive. Subjects were categorized as non-infected if 2 out of 3 reference test results were negative. The resulting performance is shown in Table 22.

Table 22: Trichomonas vaginalis Performance Compared to the PIS

Clinical Performance of Female Urine

The clinical performance of the BD MAX CTGCTV2 for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis, Neisseria gonorrhoeae and Trichomonas vaginalis infection in female urine was calculated compared to a Composite Comparator Algorithm (CCA) utilizing urine samples from up to three reference NAATs to generate reference results for each analyte. Female subjects were designated as positive if 2 out of 3 reference NAAT results were positive. Subjects were categorized as negative if 2 out

{24}------------------------------------------------

of 3 reference NAAT results were negative. The resulting performance expressed as positive percent agreement (PPA) and negative percent agreement (NPA) is shown in Table 23.

Additionally, the results obtained when using urine specimens in females were evaluated against the PIS based on cervical and urine algorithm. In the clinical study conducted for the BD MAX CTGCTV2 assay, female urine detected 5.8% fewer Chlamydia trachomatis infections than clinician and self-collected vaginal swabs and 1.9% fewer Chlamydia trachomatis infections than endocervical swabs. Female urine detected 2.4% fewer Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections than clinician-collected vaginal swabs and 4.7% fewer Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections than patientcollected vaginal swabs. There was no difference in the detection of Neisseria gonorrhoeae infections when comparing female urine and endocervical swabs.

§ 866.3860

Trichomonas vaginalis nucleic acid assay.(a)
Identification. ATrichomonas vaginalis nucleic acid assay is a device that consists of primers, probes, enzymes, and controls for the amplification and detection of trichomonas nucleic acids in endocervical swabs, vaginal swabs, and female urine specimens, from women symptomatic for vaginitis, cervicitis, or urethritis and/or to aid in the diagnosis of trichomoniasis in asymptomatic women. The detection of trichomonas nucleic acids, in conjunction with other laboratory tests, aids in the clinical laboratory diagnosis of trichomoniasis caused byTrichomonas vaginalis .(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The special controls are set forth in FDA's guideline document entitled: “Class II Special Controls Guideline: Nucleic Acid Amplification Assays for the Detection ofTrichomonas vaginalis; Guideline for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff.” See § 866.1(e) for information on obtaining this document.
