The provided text describes the performance characteristics of the MAGLUMI 2000 HCG/ß-HCG device, an in vitro chemiluminescence immunoassay for the quantitative determination of total beta human chorionic gonadotropin (total ß-hCG) in human serum. This information is presented as part of a 510(k) summary submitted to the FDA. While the document outlines various analytical performance studies, it does not explicitly define acceptance criteria in a quantitative table or refer to a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study.
However, we can infer acceptance based on the reported performance results aligning with standard clinical laboratory expectations and the successful substantial equivalence determination by the FDA. The study focuses on analytical performance characteristics rather than diagnostic accuracy involving human interpretation of results.
Here's an attempt to structure the information based on your request, identifying what is and isn't available in the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The document does not explicitly present a table of acceptance criteria. Instead, it describes performance characteristics and indicates compliance with CLSI guidelines. We can infer the "acceptance" derived from the presented data and the overall conclusion of substantial equivalence.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Precision Study: 80 samples analyzed per level (Control 1, Control 2, Control 3, Calibrator Low, Calibrator High, and 6 Native Serum Pools) on each of three instruments. Total N=240 samples per level across three instruments.
- Linearity Study: Linearity samples prepared by mixing high and low level samples. Each sample was measured in quadruple on 3 lots of reagent. The exact number of distinct linearity samples (different concentrations) is not specified, but the range is 0.3 to 4680 mIU/mL.
- Detection Limit Studies:
- LOB: 80 measurements of HCG/ß-HCG negative serum samples using 3 different lots over 5 days.
- LOD: Four levels of low samples, measured in 80 replicates over 5 days per sample using 3 lots of reagents.
- LOQ: Six low serum samples, in six replicates per run, one run per day, over 5 days, using 3 lots of reagents.
- Interference Study: Two base serum samples (6.0 mIU/mL and 100 mIU/mL HCG/ß-HCG) spiked with various cross-reactants. Also, human serum pools with 6.0 mIU/mL, 100 mIU/mL, and 2000 mIU/mL HCG/ß-HCG for endogenous substances and common drugs. Each tested using 3 lots of reagents. Exact number of distinct interferent samples not specified.
- Hook Effect: Six samples with HCG/ß-HCG concentrations from 5000 to 1,000,000 mIU/mL prepared by spiking. Serial dilutions tested using 3 different lots.
- On-board Dilution Recovery: Twelve serum samples with HCG/ß-HCG concentrations from 4475 to 223750 mIU/mL tested using three reagent lots and three instruments.
- Method Comparison Study: 201 human serum samples with concentrations ranging from 1.1 to 4934 mIU/mL (as determined by the predicate device).
- Expected Values/Reference Range: 431 serum samples from non-pregnant, apparently healthy females (20 years and older).
Data Provenance: The document does not explicitly state the country of origin for the data. Given the submitter's location (Shenzhen, China) and the FDA submission, it's likely the studies were conducted in China or involved samples from that region, but this is not explicitly confirmed. The studies are described in a manner typical of prospective performance evaluation studies for an in vitro diagnostic device, rather than retrospective analysis of pre-existing data.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
This type of information is not applicable to this submission. The device is an in vitro diagnostic immunoassay for quantitative measurement of a biomarker (hCG). Ground truth is established by the reference measurement procedure of the MAGLUMI 2000 instrument itself and validated through analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, detection limits, method comparison to a legally marketed predicate device, etc.) rather than through expert human interpretation of images or clinical findings.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable. As the device is an in vitro diagnostic assay providing a quantitative numerical result, there is no human interpretation or subjective assessment that would require an adjudication method. The "ground truth" for method comparison is the value obtained from the predicate device. For analytical performance studies, it's the objectively measured values and their statistical distributions.
5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done
No. An MRMC study is typically conducted for image-based diagnostic aids (e.g., AI for radiology) where human readers interpret medical images. This device is a lab-based immunoassay that provides a quantitative numerical result. Therefore, an MRMC study is not relevant or applicable.
6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Yes, the entire study is essentially a standalone performance evaluation. The MAGLUMI 2000 HCG/ß-HCG is an automated chemiluminescence immunoassay system. Its performance characteristics (precision, linearity, detection limits, interference, hook effect, dilution recovery, and method comparison) are evaluated as the direct output of the instrument and its reagents, without explicit human interpretation being part of the device's function or the primary subject of these studies. The quantitative output of the device itself constitutes its "performance."
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The ground truth for this device's performance evaluation is established through:
- Reference Measurement Procedures/Known Concentrations: For studies like linearity, detection limits, and interference, known concentrations or "spiked" samples are used as a reference.
- Measurement against a Predicate Device: For the method comparison study, the results from the Beckman Access Total B-HCG (5th IS) Assay (the predicate device) served as the comparative "ground truth" to establish substantial equivalence.
- Statistical Analysis of Replicate Measurements: For precision, the statistical variation around the mean measured value for controls and patient samples provides the "ground truth" of the device's reproducibility.
- Physiological/Clinical Samples: For determining expected values/reference ranges, samples from apparently healthy individuals are used.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document does not explicitly describe a "training set" in the context of an algorithm or machine learning model. This is an in vitro diagnostic assay, not an AI/ML-based device that typically undergoes a distinct training/validation/test split of data. The studies described are analytical verification and validation studies in a traditional medical device development sense.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
Not applicable. As there is no defined "training set" for an AI/ML algorithm, this question is not relevant to the described device and its evaluation. The "training" of such a system would involve the manufacturer's internal assay development and optimization, which isn't part of a regulatory submission summary like this.

10. Test Principle
The HCG/ß-HCG assay is an in vitro chemiluminescence immunoassay using FDA previously cleared MAGLUMI 2000 instrument (K162698). The assay is a sandwich chemiluminescence immunoassay.
The sample (or calibrator/control, if applicable), magnetic microbeads coated with anti-HCG monoclonal antibody are mixed thoroughly and incubated at 37°C to form immuno complexes, and then perform a wash cycle. After addition of ABEI labeled with anti-HCG monoclonal antibody, the complexes bound to the monoclonal antibody and incubate to form sandwich complexes. After precipitation in a magnetic field, decant the supernatant, and then perform another wash cycle. Subsequently, the Starter 1+2 are added to initiate a chemiluminescent reaction. The light signal is measured by a photomultiplier within 3 seconds as relative light units (RLUs), which is proportional to the concentration of HCG/β-HCG present in the sample (or calibrator/control, if applicable).

b. Linearity
The linearity of the MAGLUMI HCG/ß-HCG method was determined following the CLSI EP6-A procedure. Linearity samples were prepared by mixing high level samples and low level samples through different volume ratios to span the whole measuring range with HCG/ß-HCG concentrations from 0.3 to 4680 mIU/mL. Each sample was measured in quadruple on 3 lots of reagent. Linearity was evaluated using regression analysis based on CLSI EP6-A.
The assays are linear between 1.134 and 4680 mIU/mL with the following relationship: Observed = 1.0243 (Expected) - 54.935, R2 = 0.9932
c. Stability
Accelerated stability study at 37°C showed that all controls are stable for 12 months at 2-8°C. Accelerated stability study at 37°C showed all that calibrators are stable for 12 months at 2-8°C. Accelerated stability study at 37°C showed that the reagent is stable for 12 months at 2-8°C. The real time stability at 2-8°C is on-going.
d. Detection Limit
Detection limit studies were performed following CLSI EP17-A guidelines. The limit of blank (LOB) is the 95th percentile value from 80 measurements of HCG/ß-HCG negative serum samples using 3 different lots of HCG/ß-HCG reagents over 5 days. The LOB corresponds to the concentration below which analyte-free samples are found with a probability of 95% and was determined to be 0.302 mIU/mL (highest of the 3 lots).
The limit of detection (LOD) is determined based on the LOB and the standard deviation of low concentration samples. The LOD corresponds to the lowest analyte concentration which can be detected. Four level of low samples were measured in 80 replicates over 5 days per sample using 3 lots of reagents. LOD was determined to be 0.471 mIU/mL (highest of the 3 lots).
The limit of quantitation (LOQ) was determined by measuring six low serum samples, in six replicates per run, one run per day, over 5 days, using 3 lots of reagents. LOQ is defined as the lowest analyte concentration that can be reproducibly measured with percent bias no more than 15% and CV% no more than 20% and was determined to be 1.134 mIU/mL (highest of the 3 lots).
Interference e.
A interference study was performed using two base serum samples containing HCG/ß-HCG of 6.0 mIU/mL and 100 mIU/mL respectively. These samples were spiked with various cross reactants and measured for these solutions using 3 lots of reagents. The

For all substances tested, no significant interference was defined as recovery ± 10% of initial value. The potential interferents and the highest concentration tested which did not cause significant interference are listed below.
| Potential Interferent | Highest concentration tested at which nosignificant interference is observed |
|---|---|
| HAMA | 401 ng/mL |
| RF | 1745 IU/mL |
| Total protein | 15 g/dL |

f. Hook Effect
Six samples with HCG/ß-HCG concentrations from 5000 to 1000000 mIU/mL were prepared by spiking HCG/ß-HCG WHO 5th International Standard into HCG/ß-HCG free serum samples. Serial dilutions of these samples were made and tested using 3 different lots of the reagent. The obtained results indicated no HOOK effect was observed within HCG/ß-HCG concentration of 1000000 mIU/mL. -
- On-board Dilution Recovery
Verification studies were performed to determine the sample recovery after a 1:50 dilution is performed by both manually and automatically. Twelve serum samples with HCG/B-HCG concentrations from 4475 to 223750 mIU/mL as determined by the predicate device were tested using three reagent lots and three instruments with the 1:50 dilution. The percent differences for the diluted specimen versus the expected concentration were within 10%. The dilution study results support the claim that samples with HCG/0-HCG concentrations above 4680 mIU/mL may be diluted at 1:50 to obtain results up to 223750 mIU/mL.

- Comparison Studies
A method comparison study was performed with 201 human serum samples with concentrations ranging from 1.1 to 4934 mIU/mL as determined by the predicate device. The comparison of the MAGLUMI HCG/B-HCG assay (y) with the predicate device, Beckman Access Total B-HCG assay (x), produced the following linear regression equations:
- Comparison Studies
| All three sites | $Y = 0.988X + 1.995, R^2 =0.993$ |
|---|---|
| Site 1 | $Y = 0.997X - 1.357, R^2 =0.995$ |
| Site 2 | $Y = 0.997X + 7.614, R^2 =0.993$ |
| Site 3 | $Y = 0.970X + 0.436, R^2 =0.992$ |

- Expected values/Reference range:
{9}------------------------------------------------
A total of 431 serum samples from non-pregnant, apparently healthy females (20 years and older) were tested according to the procedure in CLSI C28-A3. The expected normal range Maglumi HCG/ß-HCG is the following.
| Category | Number | Median (mIU/mL) | 95th Percentile (mIU/mL) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 20-39 years old | 138 | < 1.1 | < 1.1 |
| ≥40 years old, Pre-menopausal | 149 | < 1.1 | 1.6 |
| ≥51 years old, Post-menopausal | 144 | 2.4 | 7.8 |
12. Conclusion
Based on the test principle and acceptable performance characteristics including precision, interference, specificity and method comparison of the device, it is concluded that the MAGLUMI 2000 HCG/ß-HCG is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
