| Interference | No interference observed up to specified concentrations of endogenous and exogenous substances. | No interference observed up to specified concentrations for Bilirubin F (19.2 mg/dL), Bilirubin C (20.1 mg/dL), Hemoglobin (496 mg/dL), Lipemic factor (1%), Rheumatoid factor (500 IU/ml), Ibuprofen (21.9 mg/dL), Prednisone (0.0099 mg/dL), Hydroxychloroquine (0.225 mg/dL), Azathioprine (0.258 mg/dL), Losartan (1.14 mg/dL), and Infliximab (26.4 mg/dL). Range of blank/spiked sample ratio was 0.88-1.16 for endogenous and 0.83-1.13 for exogenous. |
| Cut-off | 95th percentile of healthy population for setting the cut-off; 30 ANA positive samples with known reactivities should be found positive. | Cut-off: <0.7 Ratio (Negative), 0.7 - 1.0 Ratio (Equivocal), >1.0 Ratio (Positive). 95th percentile of healthy population was 0.3 Ratio. (No explicit statement on the 30 ANA positive samples being found positive, but it's implied by the method). |
| Method Comparison (vs. Predicate) | High agreement (Positive and Negative Percent Agreement) with the predicate device (EliA Symphony). | Equivocal results considered Negative: • Positive Percent Agreement: 97.6% (95% CI: 95.0 - 99.0)• Negative Percent Agreement: 98.3% (95% CI: 96.3 - 99.4)• Total Agreement: 97.9% (95% CI: 96.5 - 98.9) Equivocal results considered Positive: • Positive Percent Agreement: 92.3% (95% CI: 88.7 - 95.0)• Negative Percent Agreement: 98.1% (95% CI: 96.0 - 99.3)• Total Agreement: 95.3% (95% CI: 93.3 - 96.8) |
| Matrix Comparison | Plasma results (Li-heparin, EDTA) should not deviate from corresponding serum results and be within pre-defined specifications (implied by acceptable slopes and intercepts of Passing-Bablok regression). | • Serum vs. Li-heparin plasma: Slope 1.03 (95% CI: 0.98 to 1.05), Intercept -0.02 (95% CI: -0.03 to -0.00), R² 0.994 • Serum vs. EDTA plasma: Slope 0.98 (95% CI: 0.96 to 1.00), Intercept -0.03 (95% CI: -0.04 to -0.01), R² 0.997 |
| Instrument Comparison | High correlation and agreement between Phadia 250 and Phadia 2500/5000 instruments (implied by acceptable regression analysis). | Intercept 0.06 (95% CI: 0.01 - 0.12), Slope 1.01 (95% CI: 0.99 - 1.03), R 0.992 |
| Clinical Sensitivity & Specificity | (Implicit, likely demonstrating reasonable diagnostic performance for aid in clinical diagnosis) | EliA Symphony® – equivocal results evaluated as negative: • Sensitivity: 52.6% (95% CI: 45.3% - 59.8%) • Specificity: 94.8% (95% CI: 91.3% - 97.2%) EliA Symphony® – equivocal results evaluated as positive: • Sensitivity: 55.2% (95% CI: 47.9% - 62.3%) • Specificity: 94.4% (95% CI: 90.8% - 96.9%) |
| Reference Sera | Externally defined sera (CDC, AMLI) should be measured according to their target values. | CDC targets were met (all positive samples were positive, negative samples negative). AMLI targets were met except for two samples (AMLI 3 and 6) that showed negative results while the target was positive (not met by any single semi-quantitative EliA test or competitor). |
| Carry-over | Negligible effect without influencing assay results. | Negligible, "only a few RUs difference compared to the reference pipetting could be seen, which is too low to be expressed in U/mL." Disposable tips for Phadia 2500/5000 prevent sample to conjugate carry-over. |
Study Details:
2. Sample Size and Data Provenance (Test Set)
- Precision Study (Phadia 250): 5 samples, 252 replicates per sample (totaling 1260 determinations). Data provenance not explicitly stated, but clinical samples are generally used for such studies.
- Precision Study (Phadia 2500/5000): 7 samples, 84 replicates per sample (totaling 588 determinations). Data provenance not explicitly stated.
- Interference Study: 3 serum samples (negative, cut-off, high positive), analyzed in triplicates, repeated twice. Spiked with specific interfering substances. Data provenance not explicitly stated.
- Cut-off Study: 70 apparently healthy blood donor samples from Caucasian individuals (equally distributed by sex and age). 30 ANA positive samples with known reactivities. Data provenance not explicitly stated.
- Method Comparison Study: 633 serum samples from patients with various diagnoses (Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, Poly-/Dermatomyositis, Systemic Sclerosis, SLE, Sjögren's Syndrome, Bacterial Infection, HIV Infection, HCV Infection, HBV Infection, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Cancer). Data provenance not explicitly stated (likely retrospective clinical samples from diverse sources).
- Matrix Comparison Study: 62 patients, serum, lithium heparin plasma, and EDTA plasma collected from the same patients. Data provenance not explicitly stated.
- Instrument Comparison Study: 110 samples (81 positive, 10 equivocal, 19 negative). Data provenance not explicitly stated.
- Clinical Sensitivity and Specificity Study: 444 clinically defined samples with a diagnosis from patients with various autoimmune diseases and control conditions (Mixed Connective Tissue Disease, Poly-/Dermatomyositis, Systemic Sclerosis, SLE, SLE/Lupus nephritis, Sjögren's Syndrome, Bacterial Infection, Viral Infection, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Celiac Disease, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Graves' Disease, Hashimoto's Disease, primary Antiphospholipid Syndrome, PBC, Autoimmune hepatitis, Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis). Data provenance not explicitly stated (likely retrospective clinical samples from diverse sources).
- Expected Values/Reference Range Study: 558 apparently healthy subjects (Caucasian, African American, Hispanic and Asian population) obtained from a blood bank. This suggests diverse geographic and demographic provenance for the "normal" population.
Most of the studies likely used retrospective clinical samples, given the disease-specific grouping. No specific country of origin is mentioned for individual studies, but the applicant is Phadia AB from Sweden, and the 510(k) contact is in the USA, implying potential multi-site studies or data collection.
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 or qualifications of experts used to establish ground truth for the test set.
- For the "clinically defined samples" in the clinical sensitivity/specificity study, the "diagnosis from patients" would be considered the ground truth, presumably established by treating physicians based on clinical findings and other laboratory tests, but not by a specific panel of experts for the purpose of this device's validation.
- Reference sera (CDC and AMLI) have "target" values, which are established by their respective institutions (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Association of Medical Laboratory Immunologists) and represent a consensus or assigned value, but not necessarily a specific "number of experts" for this study.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not mention any explicit adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) for establishing the ground truth for the test set. Clinical diagnoses are typically made by single treating physicians, and reference materials have predefined target values.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not performed. This device is an in vitro diagnostic immunoassay, which does not involve human readers interpreting results in the same way an imaging AI might. Its performance is measured directly through analytical and clinical studies against predicate devices or known clinical statuses.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance)
Yes, the device performance described is standalone (algorithm only). The EliA SymphonyS Immunoassay is an automated system that measures antibody levels and provides a qualitative result (negative, equivocal, positive) based on predefined cut-offs, without direct human-in-the-loop interpretation during the measurement process. The "aid in clinical diagnosis" part implies that clinicians interpret the results in conjunction with other findings, but the device itself operates in a standalone manner.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
The types of ground truth used include:
- Clinical Diagnoses: For the clinical sensitivity/specificity study, the "diagnosis from patients with" various diseases (e.g., SLE, MCTD, Sjögren's syndrome) served as the ground truth. This is based on established clinical criteria for each disease.
- Reference Material Targets: For the evaluation of CDC and AMLI sera, the "Target" reactivity/results defined by these external institutions were used as ground truth.
- Expected Behavior: For precision, interference, carry-over, and cut-off studies, the ground truth is often the expected behavior of the assay (e.g., negative sample should be negative, spiked sample should show no interference, etc.) or statistically derived values from healthy populations.
- Predicate Device Results: For the method comparison study, the results from the legally marketed predicate device (EliA Symphony) served as a comparative ground truth to demonstrate substantial equivalence.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not explicitly describe a "training set" in the context of machine learning. This is an immunoassay, which typically relies on established biochemical reactions, calibration curves, and empirically determined cut-offs rather than a machine learning model that requires a discrete training phase with labeled data. The calibration curve is established using calibrator strips (human IgG at known concentrations).
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As noted above, there isn't a "training set" in the machine learning sense for this immunoassay.
- The calibration curve is established using EliA IgG Calibrator Strips, which contain human IgG at known concentrations (0, 4, 10, 20, 100, 600 µg/L). The "ground truth" for these calibrators is their precisely defined IgG concentrations, which are traceable to the International Reference Preparation (IRP) 67/86 of Human Serum Immunoglobulins A, G and M from WHO.
- The cut-off values (0.7 Ratio and 1.0 Ratio) were established by evaluating 70 apparently healthy blood donor samples and taking into account the 95th percentile, along with testing 30 ANA positive samples with known reactivities. This is a form of empirical ground truth setting based on biological distribution and known positive/negative samples.

EliA Symphony® – Differences to predicate device
K. Standard/Guidance Document Referenced (if applicable):
CLSI EP07_ED3, Interference in Clinical Chemistry, April 2018
L. Test Principle:
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 specific antigen for the antibodies to be detected is bound to the EliA solid phase component (EliA Well).

{8}------------------------------------------------
If present in the patient's specimen, antibodies to these proteins bind to their 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):
- Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
To determine the precision of the assay on the Phadia 250 and the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument, the variability was assessed on 5 samples. Three lots were used to determine the precision of the assay on Phadia 250 (totaling 252 replicate determinations per sample).
One lot was used to determine the precision of the assay on Phadia 2500/5000.
EliA Symphony® on Phadia 250:
To determine the precision of the assay on the Phadia 250 instrument, the variability was assessed in a study with 21 runs by examining the samples in 252 replicates on 3 instruments over 7 days. The data was calculated against the calibration curve from Day 1. The results of the statistical evaluation are given in the table below.

EliA SymphonyS on Phadia 2500/5000:
To determine the precision of the assay on the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument, the variability was assessed in a study with 21 runs by examining the samples in 84 replicates on 3 instruments over 7 days. The data was calculated against the calibration curve from Day 1. The results of the statistical evaluation are given in the table below.
Qualitative evaluation:
| Sample | MeanRatio | Range ofRatios | ExpectedResult | RepeatabilityPositive/Equivocal/Negative | %Correct |

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Not applicable for a qualitative Screening assay
Hook Effect/Outside the Range Results:
n.a.
The reportable range as shown on the laboratory reports (instrument print-outs) is from 0.09 to 60 Ratio.
Results below 0.09 Ratio are reported as "below" and evaluated as "negative", results above 60 Ratio are reported as "above" and evaluated as "positive".
- c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Traceability:
The IgG calibrators are traceable (via unbroken chain of calibrations) to the International Reference Preparation (IRP) 67/86 of Human Serum Immunoglobulins A, G and M from WHO. New batches of IgG calibrators are compared to a secondary standard (standardized with the IRP) or the IRP directly and adjusted accordingly to meet the correct concentration.
The instrument measures specific IgG concentrations in µg/L. By using a conversion factor given by the lot-specific code of the EliA™ test well, the results are automatically converted to Ratio.
{10}------------------------------------------------
Stability:
Data for Open and closed real-time stability and Onboard stability of EliA lgG reagents and general EliA reagents on Phadia 250 and Phadia 2500/5000 instrument were already cleared with several other EliA tests, e.g. under K141375 (EliA M2 on PH250). For Phadia 2500/5000 instrument, they were already cleared under K061165/A003 (EliA CCP).
Shelf life:
The stability of EliA SymphonyS Wells was evaluated with both, a real-time and accelerated/stress study. The results support stability of the test under the recommended storage of 2 - 8°C for up to 18 months.
Onboard stability:
The onboard stability EliA Symphony® carriers (containing the antigen coated wells) was tested over 4 weeks using 3 positive and 2 negative samples only on the Phadia 250 instrument. As the storage conditions in the Phadia 2500/5000 instrument are similar, the results can also be used for stability claims for the Phadia 2500/5000. The onboard stability for the Phadia 250 instrument was determined to be 28 days at 2-8°C.
Open Stability:
Stability after first opening of the foilbag containing the EliA SymphonyS wells was tested and determined to be 9 months at 2-8°C.

e. Analytical specificity:
Endogenous Interference: A study was run to investigate whether high concentrations of potentially interfering substances in serum, like bilirubin, hemoqlobin, lipemic factor and rheumatoid factor adversely affect the results of the new device. Three serum samples were prediluted in EliA Sample Diluent and spiked with the different interfering substances or their respective blank solutions, and analyzed in triplicates. A calibration curve was run in duplicate. The runs were repeated twice. One batch of EliA antigen wells and one batch of system reagents were used throughout the studies.
One neqative sample, one sample with a concentration around the cut-off and one high positive sample were tested. The ratio of blank/spiked sample ranged from 0.88 - 1.16 for EliA SymphonyS. No interference was observed up to the concentrations listed in the table below:
| Potential InterferingCompound | Concentration inundiluted sample |

| Lipemic factor | 1% |
| Rheumatoid factor | 500 IU/ml |
Exogenous Interference: In addition, interference by five selected exogenous substances was evaluated according to CLSI Guideline EP07-3rd Edition. The same study protocol as described above was used to analyze interference of a non-steroid anti-inflammatory drug (Ibuprofen), an oral steroid (Prednisone), an anti-malarial drug (Hydroxychloroquine), a diseasemodifying anti-rheumatic drug (Azathioprine), an anti-hypertensive agent (Losartan) and a rheumatologic biologic (Infliximab) in serum samples. The concentration of the substances are based on CLSI Guideline EP37 1st Edition.
One negative sample, one sample with a concentration around the cut-off and one high positive sample were tested. The ratio of blank/spiked sample ranged from 0.83 – 1.13 for EliA Symphony®. No interference was observed up to the concentrations listed in the table below:

| AMLI 9 | dsDNA / SS-A/Ro / SS-B/La | Positive | 49.4 |
| AMLI 10 | Negative | Negative | 0.2 |
Evaluation of AMLI sera on EliA SymphonyS:
The targets were met for AMLI Consensus Reference Panel, except for two serum samples (AMLI 3 and 6). Both samples showed negative results, while the target is positive. The defined targets could not be met by any single semi-quantitative EliA test nor by competitor screening assays. Therefore, the targets defined by AMLI could not be confirmed.
Carry-over: A study was carried out on a Phadia 250 instrument using the test EliA Ro. cleared under K082759. A serum sample was diluted 1:2 and 1:20 using instrument dilution and manual dilution. A lower dilution factor than the default one (1:100) was chosen to challenge the system. Only a few RUs difference compared to the reference pipetting could be seen, which is too low to be expressed in U/mL. The observed carry over effect is therefore negligible without any influence to assay results.
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.
{14}------------------------------------------------
- f. Assay cut-off:
A study was performed on 70 apparently healthy blood donor samples from Caucasian individuals equally distributed by sex and age in order to evaluate expected values for EliA Symphony® in the normal population and to confirm the defined cut-off. The samples were measured on the Phadia 250 instrument. The 95th percentile was taken into account for setting the cut-off. Additionally, 30 ANA positive samples with known reactivities against all antigens contained in EliA Symphony® were tested and should be found positive with the proposed test evaluation.
The following values were selected for the cut-off:
| EliA SymphonyS | |
|---|---|
| <0.7 Ratio | Negative |
| 0.7 - 1.0 Ratio | Equivocal |
| >1.0 Ratio | Positive |
In case of equivocal results, it is recommended to retest the patient after 8-12 weeks.
In the case of a positive result, it is suggested that further confirmatory testing on individual antigen(s) be performed.

b. Matrix comparison:
Serum, lithium heparin plasma and EDTA plasma were collected from the same patients (n = 62) to demonstrate that the plasma results do not deviate from the corresponding serum results and are within the pre-defined specifications. Samples were spiked with a serum sample of high antibody titer to generate a range of reactivity. Samples were tested in duplicates. Passing & Bablok regression plots were generated using the first replicate only and by plotting the concentration observed from the control tube (serum) versus the concentration for each test collection tube. The corresponding slopes of regression and coefficient determination are summarized in the tables below:

§ 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).
