Intended Use

The BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit is a multiplex flow immunoassay intended for the qualitative detection of total (lgM/IgG) antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi in human serum and plasma (EDTA, heparin). This assay should be used to test patients with a history and/ or symptoms of infection with B. burgdorferi. The BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total assay is intended for use with the Bio-Rad BioPlex 2200 System. All reactive and equivocal specimens should be tested with a second tier test such as Lyme IgM and IgG Western blot assays. Positive second tier results are supportive evidence of infection with B. burgdorferi. Diagnosis of Lyme borreliosis should be made based on the presence of B. burgdorferi antibodies, history, symptoms, and other laboratory data. Non-reactive first tier or negative second tier results should not be used to exclude borreliosis.

AI/ML Overview

The document provided is a 510(k) Summary for the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit, which is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device for the qualitative detection of total (IgM/IgG) antibodies to Borrelia burgdorferi. It is not an AI/ML-driven device, nor does it involve human readers interpreting images. Therefore, many of the requested criteria in your prompt (such as human readers, AI assistance, expert consensus for ground truth, adjudication methods, or sample size for training sets) are not applicable to this type of device.

However, I can extract information related to the acceptance criteria and performance study from the provided document as it pertains to an IVD device.

Key takeaway: This document describes a traditional in-vitro diagnostic device, not an AI/ML system for diagnostic imaging. Therefore, concepts like "human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance" or "standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance)" are irrelevant. The "acceptance criteria" for this IVD device would typically refer to predefined performance specifications agreed upon for regulatory clearance.

Here's the relevant information based on the document provided:


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

For IVD devices, acceptance criteria are generally established for various performance characteristics like sensitivity, specificity, precision, cross-reactivity, and interference. The document presents the results of these studies, and the implicit acceptance is that these results demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device and are clinically acceptable. The performance is compared against a commercial Lyme IgM/IgG immunoassay or a CDC reference panel.

Performance MetricAcceptance Criteria (Implicit from Study Design/Context)Reported Device Performance (BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total)Predicate Device / Commercial Assay Performance (for comparison)

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

  • Clinical Method Comparison Study (Test Set): 792 prospectively collected serum samples from patients submitted for Lyme disease testing.
    • Data Provenance: "various geographically distinct locations in the U.S." (retrospective or prospective is not explicitly stated for this part, but implies prospective collection for "patients submitted for Lyme disease testing"). The samples were evaluated at "three (3) U.S. clinical testing sites."
  • Sensitivity Study (Test Set): 105 clinically characterized samples from an archived collection.
    • Data Provenance: Not specified for geographical origin beyond "archived collection."
  • Analytical Specificity Study (Test Set): 836 samples from asymptomatic individuals from endemic regions (416 asymptomatic non-endemic, 420 asymptomatic endemic). These were "obtained from an asymptomatic population and excluded pre-screened blood donors."
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin), implies collected from relevant populations.
  • Cross-Reactivity Study (Test Set): Varies per cross-reactant, e.g., 13 samples for ANA, 49 for EBV, 48 for Syphilis, etc. (Total N for this section is sum of all individual cross-reactant groups). Samples were "known to be positive for each cross-reactant" and "pre-tested by a commercially available Lyme assay and only those that tested negative by the commercially available assay were further tested."
  • Precision Study: 80 replicates per panel member (6 panel members evaluated).
  • Reproducibility Study: 120 total replicates per panel member (5 panel members evaluated), tested at 3 clinical trial sites.
  • Matrix Comparison: Minimum of 40 sets of paired serum and plasma samples, total N for comparison ranged from 74 to 78 pairs.
  • CDC Panel: 280 positive and negative specimens from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
    • Data Provenance: CDC (implies U.S. origin).

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

Not Applicable / Not Provided for this IVD device. The device measures antibodies. The "ground truth" for clinical studies is based on patient clinical history, symptoms, and other laboratory data, or classification by a reference panel (like the CDC panel) or comparison to an already cleared predicate device. There is no mention of "experts" in the context of image interpretation or similar tasks requiring human consensus.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

Not Applicable / Not Provided for this IVD device. Adjudication methods like "2+1, 3+1" are typically used for interpreting ambiguous cases or discordances in human reader studies, often in the context of imaging. For this IVD device, results are quantitative (Antibody Index) and then categorized into discrete "Reactive," "Equivocal," or "Non-Reactive" bins based on defined cut-offs. Discords between the new device and the predicate or clinical diagnosis are reported, but there's no mention of an adjudication process by human experts to resolve these, rather they are statistical comparisons. For equivocal results, the assay states they "should be tested with a second tier test such as Lyme IgM and IgG Western blot assays."

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

Not Applicable. This document describes an IVD antibody detection kit, not an AI-assisted imaging device or a device involving human readers.

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

The BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit is a standalone device in the sense that it performs the assay and provides quantitative results (Antibody Index) which are then categorized. There isn't a "human-in-the-loop" performing the primary measurement or interpretation in the way one would for an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging system. The device itself produces the raw data and converts it into the final qualitative result (Reactive, Equivocal, Non-Reactive) based on internal algorithms and calibrated cutoffs. Thus, all the performance data presented (sensitivity, specificity, precision, etc.) represents its standalone performance as an automated IVD assay.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The "ground truth" for this IVD device's performance studies varies:

  • Clinical Diagnosis: For the "Sensitivity Study" and "CDC Panel," samples were "clinically characterized" by disease stage (e.g., Acute, Convalescent, Late Lyme) or defined categories (e.g., look-alike diseases, healthy controls).
  • Predicate Device Comparison: In the "Method Comparison Study," the new device's qualitative results were compared against an existing "Commercial Lyme IgM/IgG Immunoassay" (the predicate device). This serves as a reference for substantial equivalence.
  • Second-Tier Testing (Western Blot): For reactive and equivocal results from both the new device and predicate, a "FDA-cleared IgG and IgM Western blot assays" was used as a confirmatory "second tier test." This provides a more definitive ground truth for those specific samples implicated as positive or equivocal by initial screening assays.
  • Archived Collections/Known Status: For the precision, reproducibility, analytical specificity, interfering substances, and cross-reactivity studies, samples with pre-defined characteristics (e.g., specific concentrations, known disease states, known absence of target analyte) were used.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

Not Applicable / Not Provided. This document does not describe the development of an AI/ML algorithm that requires a specific training set. The device is a traditional immunoassay kit. The "assay cut-off" (similar to a classification threshold in ML) was determined using "1,372 normal sera" and was "retrospectively selected around the 98th percentile." This cohort was used to define the operational cut-off rather than "training" an algorithm in the AI/ML sense.

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

Not Applicable. As above, there is no AI/ML training set. The assay cut-off was established using 1,372 normal sera, identifying a relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) corresponding to the 98th percentile to set the 1.0 AI cut-off. This was then "subsequently evaluated for performance against clinically diagnosed samples."

Test Principle: The BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit employs fluoromagnetic, dyed beads which are coated with recombinant p58, OspCB or synthetic peptide FVIsE. Unique fluorescent signatures identify the presence of total (IgM/IgG) antibodies to B. burgdorferi in a two-step assay format.

The BioPlex 2200 System combines an aliquot of patient sample diluent, and bead reagent in a reaction vessel. The mixture is incubated at 37°C. After a wash cycle, a mixture of murine monoclonal anti-human IgG and murine monoclonal anti-human IgM antibody conjugated to phycoerythrin (PE) is added to the dyed beads, and this mixture is incubated at 37°C. The excess conjugate is removed in another wash cycle and the beads are re-suspended in sheath fluid. The bead mixture then passes through the detector. The identity of the dyed beads is determined by the fluorescence of the dyes, and the amount of antibody captured by the antigen is determined by the fluorescence of the attached PE. Raw data is calculated in relative fluorescence intensity (RFI).

Two additional dyed beads, an Internal Standard Bead (ISB) and a Serum Verification Bead (SVB), are present in each reaction mixture to verify detector response and the addition of serum or plasma to the reaction vessel respectively. Refer to the BioPlex 2200 System Operation Manual for more information.

The system is calibrated using a set of three (3) distinct calibrator vials supplied separately by Bio-Rad Laboratories. One vial contains negative sample, and the other two vials contain human B. burgdorferi sensu stricto antibodies, which are used for qualitative calibration of the assays. The qualitative results

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

are expressed in an antibody index (AI). The assay results are reported as nonreactive, equivocal or reactive.

Performance Characteristics

Non-Clinical Studies

Assay Cut-Off: A total of 1.372 normal sera were used to determine the percentile cut-off in increments of 1/1000th for each analyte. Based on a retrospective selection of around the 98th percentile, the relative fluorescence intensity (RFI) corresponding to the chosen cutoff was assigned a value of 1.0 AI, and subsequently evaluated for performance against clinically diagnosed samples. The statistics show that the 98th percentile cutoff meets the minimum agreement specifications while maximizing the clinical specificity. The assay employs an equivocal zone that brackets the cut-off (0.9-1.0 AI), with samples ≥1.1 AI reported as reactive and ≤0.8 AI reported as non-reactive.

Precision Study: Precision testing of the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit was performed in accordance with the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) EP5-A3 guideline. The serum samples were tested in duplicate, two runs per day, over 20 days (2 replicates x 2 runs x 20 days = 80 replicates per panel member) using one lot of the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total Reagent Pack, Calibrator Set and Control Set. The results are summarized in the table below.

BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total Precision

Reproducibility Study: To assess reproducibility of the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit, a reproducibility panel was prepared at Bio-Rad Laboratories. The panel contained members with varying levels of antibodies to the analytes in the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit, and a positive control (antibody reactive for all analytes). Reproducibility testing was performed at 3 clinical trial sites. One lot of BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total Reagent Packs, BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total Calibrator Sets and BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total Control Sets was used to evaluate reproducibility. Each of the panel members and a positive and negative control were tested in quadruplicate on 2 runs per day over 5 days at each of 3 sites (4 replicates x 2 runs x 5 days = 40 replicates per panel member per site = 120 total replicates for 3 sites). The data was analyzed for intra-assay and inter-assay reproducibility according to the CLSI guidance EP15-A3. Results are shown in the table below.

Results of Cross-Reactivity Study

Matrix comparison: Matched serum and plasma (EDTA and heparin) samples drawn from the same donor were acquired through a vendor. A minimum of 40 sets of paired serum and plasma samples were prepared and values within the measurement range of the assay were analyzed. Samples were spiked with high titer Lyme samples to obtain concentrations that span the assay range. Samples were assayed in replicates of two with the second replicate run in reverse order. Mean plasma AI values were compared to matched mean serum AI values. Linear regression analysis was used to determine the presence of a matrix effect when compared to serum. The regression correlation parameters for

Clinical Studies

Method Comparison Study: Performance of the BioPlex 2200 Lyme Total kit was evaluated using prospectively collected serum samples from patients submitted for Lyme disease testing originating from various geographically distinct locations in the U.S. A total of 792 serum samples were evaluated at three (3) U.S. clinical testing sites. Equivocal (Eqv.) samples are added to positives for calculating agreement results since they will be tested by the second tier Western blot. Results are shown in the table below.

Treponema pallidum treponemal test reagents.(a)
Identification. Treponema pallidum treponemal test reagents are devices that consist of the antigens, antisera and all control reagents (standardized reagents with which test results are compared) which are derived from treponemal sources and that are used in the fluorescent treponemal antibody absorption test (FTA-ABS), theTreponema pallidum immobilization test (T.P.I.), and other treponemal tests used to identify antibodies toTreponema pallidum directly from infecting treponemal organisms in serum. The identification aids in the diagnosis of syphilis caused by bacteria belonging to the genusTreponema and provides epidemiological information on syphilis.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).
