Device DescriptionThe Factor IX deficient plasma kit
consists of: Factor IX deficient
plasma (Cat. No. 0020011910):
10 x 1 mL vials of lyophilized
human plasma that has been
artificially depleted of factor IX
containing buffer and stabilizers.
The residual factor IX activity is
less than or equal to 1% whereas

calcium chloride and phospholipids.
Reagent 3: FXa Substrate containing
EDTA and a thrombin inhibitor.
Diluent Buffer: Tris buffer solution
containing 1% BSA and a heparin

MethodologyFactor IX activity in a patient's
plasma is determined by
performing a modified activated
partial thromboplastin time test
(APTT). Patient plasma is diluted
and added to a plasma deficient in
factor IX. Correction of the clotting
time of the deficient plasma is
proportional to the concentration
(% activity) of that factor in the
patient plasma, interpolated from a
calibration curve.FIX activity is determined in a
chromogenic method, in which human
FIX is activated by human FXIa and
where formed FIXa activates human FX
in the presence of human FVIII, calcium
ions and phospholipid. Similar to in vivo
conditions, FVIII is activated by thrombin
which is generated during the incubation.
The amountof FXa formed is related to
the FIX activity and is determined from
the hydrolysis of a chromogenic FXa
substrate. The color produced by the
release of pNA is measured
spectrophotometrically at 405 nm and is
proportional to the factor IX in the
sample.

Linearity/Assay Reportable Range

A linearity study was conducted in accordance with CLSI EP06-2™ Ed using three lots of cRYocheck Chromogenic Factor IX on an IL ACL TOP 700 CTS instrument (K160276). A high FIX (230%) plasma was combined with conqenital FIX deficient plasma (0%) to create fourteen sample dilutions with estimated FIX activities in the range of 0 to 230% FIX. Each level was tested in quadruplicate. The results support the linearity claim described below.

Linearity Range: 0 to 200% FIX activity

Reference Interval

A reference interval study was conducted by two operators on IL ACL TOP 700 CTS and IL ACL TOP CTS instruments (K160276) in accordance with CLSI EP28-A3c using three lots of CRYocheck Chromogenic Factor IX and citrated plasma samples from 128 normal, ostensibly individuals. The reference interval was established by calculating the non-parametric 95% confidence interval (2.5th to 97.5th percentiles).

Reference Interval: 79 to 155% FIX activity

Stability

Shelf-Life Stability

A shelf-life stability study was conducted in accordance with CLSI EP25-A using an IL ACL TOP 700 CTS instrument (K160276). At each timepoint, five replicates of one normal and two abnormal reference controls and two patient plasma samples representing very low and high levels of FIX activity levels were quantified. The study has been completed up to 19 months and supports a shelf-life stability claim of at least 18 months when the product is stored at ≤-70 ℃.

In-Use Stability

An in-use stability study was conducted in accordance with CLSI EP25-A using an IL ACL TOP 700 CTS instrument (K160276). Each lot was used to quantify five replicates of one normal and two abnormal reference controls and two patient plasma samples representing very low and low levels of FIX activity levels from each storage condition at defined timepoints. The data support a stability claim of 24 hours on board the instrument and 48 hours at 2-8 °C.

Three lots of cRYocheck Chromogenic Factor IX were maintained on board an analyzer for 4 hours, then subsequently refrozen at ≤-70 ℃ for up to 3 months. Each lot was used to quantify five replicates of one normal and two abnormal reference controls and two patient plasma samples representing very low and low levels of FIX activity levels at defined timepoints. The data support a stability claim of one month refrozen storage at ≤-70 ℃ if the product is stored on-board and refrozen within 4 hours of the initial thaw. The refrozen product must be used within eight hours of next thawing while kept on-board the analyzer.

Detection Limit

The limit of blank (LoB) was determined in accordance with CLSI EP17-A2 by measuring four blank plasma samples obtained from individuals with severe congenital hemophilia B. Samples were measured in triplicate on an IL ACL TOP 700 CTS instrument (K160276) using three lots of cRYocheck Chromogenic Factor IX over five days. The LoB was determined to be 0.4% FIX activity.

The limit of detection (LoD) was determined in accordance with CLSI EP17-A2 by measuring four plasma samples with low FIX activity obtained from congenital hemophilia B donors. Samples were measured in triplicate on an IL ACL TOP CTS instrument (K160276) using three lots of CRYOcheck Chromogenic Factor IX over five days. The LoD was determined to be 0.5%FIX activity.

The limit of quantitation (LoQ) was determined in accordance with CLSI EP17-A2. Aliquots of four plasma samples with low FIX activity obtained from congenital hemophilia B donors were sent to an external laboratory for three replicates on five different days on an IL ACL TOP 700 instrument (K160276) to determine assigned values using a validated laboratory developed chromogenic factor IX assay. The LoQ was determined to be 0.5% FIX activity.

Interferences

Interference studies were conducted according to CLSI EP07-A3 using a single lot of CRYocheck Chromogenic Factor IX on an IL ACL TOP 700 CTS instrument (K160276). Plasma samples were spiked with possible interferents, and 10 replicates were tested alongside 10 replicates of the corresponding blank matrix control. The following substances showed no interference up to the concentrations indicated:

Method Comparison Studies

A method comparison study was conducted at four sites (one internal and three external) according to CLSI EP09c to compare the accuracy of CRYOcheck Chromogenic Factor IX relative to a comparator device. Three hundred and sixty eight human plasma samples from normal ostensibly healthy individuals, from patients with von Willebrand disease, from patients with congenital and acquired hemophilia A and B and patients on recombinant factor IX treatments were distributed across four sites and tested for FIX activity using a single lot of CRYOcheck Chromogenic Factor IX on IL ACL TOP 700 CTS (K160276), IL ACL TOP 700 (K160276) and IL ACL TOP 750 (K150877) analyzers. A second aliquot of each sample was tested at two central reference laboratories using a validated laboratory developed chromogenic factor IX assay on an IL ACL TOP 700 instrument (K160276).

Results were compared by Passing-Bablok regression statistics show that CRYOcheck Chromogenic Factor IX performed equivalently to the comparator method.
