Device Description
The SEKURE Creatine Kinase Assay (CK Assay) is a spectrophotometric, coupled enzyme assay for the quantitative measurement of creatine kinase (CK) activity. The assay consists of two working reagents, a buffer solution (R1) and a substrate reagent (R2). The SEKURE CK Assay employs the reverse reaction of CK, to produce adenosine triphosphate (ATP). The reaction is coupled to hexokinase and G6PDH which consumes ATP to generate NADPH. The rate of NADPH formation is monitored at 340 nm and is directly proportional to CK activity. Testing is performed on the SK500 in conjunction with calibrator and controls which are provided separately. The SK500 Analyzer is manufactured as Clinical Chemistry Analyzer Tokyo Boeki Medisys Inc. Biolis 50i Superior. "SK500" is the Sekisui Diagnostics labelled name for the Tokyo Boeki Medisys Inc. Biolis 50i Superior instrument.

No
The summary describes a standard spectrophotometric chemical assay and a clinical chemistry analyzer. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies.

No.
The device is for in vitro quantitative measurement for diagnostic purposes, not for treating or preventing disease.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Measurements of creatine kinase are used in the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction and muscle diseases such as progressive, Duchenne-type muscular dystrophy." This indicates that the device assists in the diagnosis of medical conditions.

No

The device is a chemical assay kit (reagents) intended for use on a specific clinical chemistry analyzer (SK500), which is a hardware device. The 510(k) describes the performance of the assay and the analyzer together, not a standalone software product.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states "For the in vitro quantitative measurement of creatine kinase activity in serum and plasma". "In vitro" means "in glass" or "outside of the body," which is a key characteristic of IVDs.
  • Device Description: The description details a "spectrophotometric, coupled enzyme assay" that measures a substance (creatine kinase activity) in biological samples (serum and plasma). This is consistent with the nature of IVD assays.
  • Performance Studies: The document describes various performance studies (Precision, Analytical Sensitivity, Linearity, Analytical Specificity, Method Comparison, Matrix Comparison) conducted on biological samples (serum and plasma) to validate the assay's performance. This is standard practice for IVD devices.
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a "Predicate Device(s)" with a K number (K973999) indicates that this device is being compared to a previously cleared IVD device, which is a common regulatory pathway for IVDs.

All of these points strongly indicate that the SEKURE Creatine Kinase Assay and the SK500 Clinical Chemistry System, as described, are intended for in vitro diagnostic use.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Precision: Testing was conducted as per CLSI EP05-A3 using two lots of SEKURE CK reagents on one SK500 instrument. Two levels of sera controls, one level of pooled serum, and three levels of pooled plasma were assayed in duplicate in two runs per day for twenty (20) days. Sample size: 80 for each of the six samples (Serum Control 1, Serum Control 2, Serum High Pool, Plasma Low Pool, Plasma Med Pool, Plasma High Pool) for each of the two lots.
The CK activity data (U/L) are summarized in the table provided.

Analytical Sensitivity - Limit of Blank (LoB) and Limit of Detection (LoD): Testing was based on guidance from the CLSI guidance document EP17-A2. Testing was completed by analyzing low level samples (saline blanks and dilutions of pooled serum or plasma in saline) in quadruplicate for three days producing a total of 60 measurements of each level. All samples were assayed on two lots of CK reagents and one SK500 analyzer. The LoB and LoD were determined individually for each reagent lot, dilution level, and matrix type; the maximal values are claimed for the SEKURE CK Assay.
Results: LoB = 3 U/L, LoD = 5 U/L.

Limit of Quantitation (LoQ): Testing was based on guidance from the CLSI guidance document EP17-A2. Eight linear serum samples and eight linear plasma samples were assayed in five runs over three days to give 40 replicates. All samples were assayed on two lots of CK reagents and one SK500 analyzer. The LoQ was determined as the lowest CK value at which the %CV was determined individually for each reagent lot and each matrix type; the maximal value is claimed as the LoQ for the SEKURE CK Assay.
Result: The LoQ claimed is 11 U/L.

Linearity/Assay Reportable Range: A linearity study was performed based on guidance from the CLSI guidance document EP06-A. Linearity testing for serum was conducted using eight dilutions of pooled serum to generate a CK activity range from 0 - 1650 U/L. Linearity testing for plasma was conducted using ten dilutions and admixtures of pooled plasma to generate a CK activity range from 3 - 2700 U/L. All samples were run in quadruplicate on two lots of SEKURE CK reagents and one SK500.
Result: The sample observed mean values were within ± 10% or ± 3 U/L of the sample theoretical values across all sample concentrations. The serum and plasma linearity data support the measuring range claim up to 1500 U/L for the SEKURE CK Assay.

Analytical Specificity - Interference study: An interference study was performed based on the CLSI EP07-A2 guideline to assess common or known substances that could interfere with the CK Assay. Interference testing was conducted using two lots of SEKURE CK reagents. All interferents were tested according to the paired difference method with CK activity levels of 180 and 415 U/L and a minimum of seven interferent concentrations in replicates of five on each reagent lot. Testing was performed using serum only, plasma data is expected to be similar. Significant interference was identified as a percent difference greater than 10% from control.
Results: See table for highest tested concentrations at which no significant interference was observed for Conjugated Bilirubin, Unconjugated Bilirubin, Hemoglobin, Intralipid, and Ascorbic Acid.

Method Comparison with Predicate Device: Method comparison testing was conducted based on CLSI EP09-A3 on using two lots of SEKURE CK reagents on one SK500 instruments and two lots of SEKURE CK reagent on the Hitachi 717 (predicate). A set of 112 serum specimens were tested in duplicate over five or more operating days.
Sample size: 112 serum specimens.
Result: The CK activity of the samples ranged from 23 to 1413 U/L. The regression was generated using first replicate data from the candidate method and mean sample values from the predicate method. For Lot 1: y Intercept (U/L) 2.4, Correlation Coefficient 0.9998, Bias -2.7%, Slope 0.964. For Lot 2: y Intercept (U/L) 2.3, Correlation Coefficient 0.9997, Bias -2.2%, Slope 0.970.

Matrix Comparison: Matrix comparison testing was conducted to evaluate the suitability of lithium heparin with the SEKURE CK Assay on the SK500. A set of 75 matched serum and lithium heparin plasma specimens were assayed in duplicate using two lots of CK reagents on the SK500.
Sample size: 75 matched serum and lithium heparin plasma specimens.
Result: The CK activity ranged from approximately 35 to 1500 U/L. The regression was generated using first replicate data from plasma and mean sample values from serum. For Lot 1: Slope 1.013, y Intercept (U/L) -1.8, Correlation Coefficient 0.9991, Mean Bias (%) 0.9. For Lot 2: Slope 1.015, y Intercept (U/L) -3.4, Correlation Coefficient 0.9991, Mean Bias (%) 0.7.

Dear Jeanna MacLeod:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act.
