2. Sample Size for Test Set and Data Provenance
-
Analytical Performance (Precision/Reproducibility/Sensitivity):
- For each hCG concentration (0, 12.5, 15, 18.75, 22.5, 25, 50, 100, 200 mIU/mL), 10 replicates were tested per day for 5 days for each of 3 device lots. This means 50 tests per operator/lot/concentration.
- Total tests for Strip format: 9 concentrations * 50 replicates/operator * 3 operators = 1350 tests.
- Total tests for Midstream format (in-stream): 9 concentrations * 50 replicates/operator * 3 operators = 1350 tests.
- Total tests for Midstream format (dip): 9 concentrations * 50 replicates/operator * 3 operators = 1350 tests.
- Total for Sensitivity: 4050 unique test interpretations.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but likely laboratory-prepared samples.
-
Specificity (Cross-reactivity with non-pregnant samples):
- Sample Size: 450 urine samples (150 from pre-menopausal, 150 from peri-menopausal, 150 from post-menopausal women).
- Each age group had 50 participants tested with strip, 50 with midstream (dip), and 50 with midstream (in-stream).
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated but implies prospective collection of urine from normal, non-pregnant females.
-
Method Comparison Study:
- Sample Size: 200 urine samples (approximately half suspected pregnant, most in early stage < 5 weeks).
- Data Provenance: Collected from women presenting to test for pregnancy, likely prospective clinical samples. The samples were split to test different device formats:
- Strip Device: 200 samples (101 positive, 99 negative)
- Midstream Device (in-stream method): 100 samples (52 positive, 48 negative)
- Midstream Device (dip method): 100 samples (49 positive, 51 negative)
-
Lay Person Study:
- First Study (Self-testing vs. Professional): 200 women.
- Strip device: 100 women (52 positive, 48 negative)
- Midstream device (in-stream): 50 women (26 positive, 24 negative)
- Midstream device (dip): 50 women (23 positive, 27 negative)
- Second Study (Spiked Samples): 200 laypersons.
- 100 laypersons tested 5 mIU/mL hCG aliquots.
- 100 laypersons tested 25 mIU/mL hCG aliquots.
- Data Provenance: Collected from individuals with varying educational and occupational backgrounds from three sites, presumably prospective.
- First Study (Self-testing vs. Professional): 200 women.
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth
- Analytical Performance: The ground truth for spiked samples was based on the known, precisely controlled concentration of hCG, traceable to the 5th WHO International Standard. The "operators" (presumably laboratory technicians or trained personnel doing the reading) were involved in testing, but the ground truth for the hCG concentration itself was intrinsic to the sample preparation.
- Method Comparison Study: The ground truth was established by testing the same samples with a predicate device. While not explicitly stated as "experts," the "three POC sites (3 different professionals using the candidate device and 1 professional using the predicate device at each site)" implies trained professionals made the readings for both the candidate and predicate devices. No specific qualifications (e.g., years of experience) are provided.
- Lay Person Study (First Study): The ground truth was established by "professional testing" of the same urine samples. It can be inferred that these were qualified laboratory personnel or healthcare professionals. No specific number or qualifications are provided beyond "professional."
- Lay Person Study (Second Study): The ground truth was the known, precisely controlled concentration of hCG in the blindly labeled spiked samples (0 mIU/mL for 5 mIU/mL hCG aliquot which should be negative, and 25 mIU/mL hCG aliquot which should be positive according to the device's cut-off).
4. Adjudication Method for Test Set
- Analytical Performance (Reproducibility): No explicit adjudication method is mentioned beyond testing by "three different operators." The data is presented as raw counts of negative/positive readings per operator/lot, not as an adjudicated consensus.
- Method Comparison Study: The comparison was made directly between the candidate device and the predicate device results for each sample. Implicitly, any disagreement would be noted, but the results show 100% conformity, suggesting no need for complex adjudication.
- Lay Person Study (First Study): The layperson's self-test results were compared directly against the "professional" results. No explicit adjudication process for discrepancies is described, though the 100% concordance implies disagreements were not observed or not significant enough to warrant further mention.
- Lay Person Study (Second Study): The layperson's results were compared to the known spiked hCG concentration (the "true" positive or negative result). No explicit adjudication process is detailed.
5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done in the context of human readers improving with AI vs. without AI assistance.
- This device is a rapid diagnostic test for home use (Over-The-Counter). The studies focus on analytical performance, comparison to a predicate device, and the ability of laypersons to correctly use and interpret the device (without assistance). There is no "AI assistance" component to this device.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance
- Yes, a standalone (algorithm only) performance equivalent was performed in the context of the device itself (without human-in-the-loop assistance for interpretation beyond reading the visual line).
- The entire analytical performance section (sensitivity, hook effect, specificity, cross-reactivity, interfering substances, pH, density) evaluates the device's inherent capability to detect hCG under various conditions. The "reading" is visual, which is the intended standalone function for an OTC rapid test. The "operators" in these studies are effectively performing the standalone reading as intended by the device's design.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- Known Spiked Concentrations: For analytical sensitivity, hook effect, cross-reactivity, interfering substances, pH, and density studies, the ground truth was based on precisely prepared urine samples with known concentrations of hCG or other substances.
- Predicate Device Results: For the method comparison study, the results from a legally marketed predicate device served as the reference standard (ground truth).
- Professional Testing: For the first layperson study, the results from trained professionals using the MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test served as the ground truth against which layperson self-test results were compared.
8. Sample Size for Training Set
- The provided document describes a 510(k) summary for device clearance, which typically focuses on validation studies rather than a detailed breakdown of the development or training process.
- No information is provided regarding the specific sample size used for a "training set" for the development of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test. This is typical, as the 510(k) submission generally presents the results of validation testing for the final device, not the iterative development data.
9. How Ground Truth for Training Set Was Established
- No information is provided on how the ground truth for a "training set" was established for this device, as the document does not detail the development phase.
- Given that this is an immunochromatographic rapid diagnostic test, the "training" aspect would primarily relate to optimizing reagent concentrations, membrane characteristics, and buffer systems to achieve the desired analytical performance (e.g., sensitivity, specificity, read time) based on known hCG concentrations and interfering substances. The establishment of ground truth would follow standard laboratory practices for preparing calibrated samples and verifying analytical properties of the reagents.

8. Substantial Equivalence Information
9. Test Principle
MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test uses lateral flow immunoassay for in vitro qualitative detection of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG) in human urine. If hCG is present in the sample, it will reach the Test Zone ("T") of the membrane and form a colored line. When the test is performed properly, a colored line will always appear in the Control Zone ("C"). The test result is shown in the result window and read visually between 3 and 5 minutes of urine application. Two distinct colored lines, one in the Test Zone and another in the Control Zone indicate a positive test result (pregnant). Absence of a colored line in the Test Zone and only a colored line in the Control Zone indicates a negative test result (not pregnant). Absence of a colored line in the Control Zone even in the presence of a colored line in the Test Zone indicates an invalid test result.
10. Performance Characteristics

MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test exhibited reproducibility of results.
Based on the above results, the sensitivity of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test is demonstrated to be 25 mIU/mL.
b. Linearity/assav reportable range:
Linearity is not applicable since this is a qualitative test. The test device was evaluated for high dose or hook effect.
Hook effect test:
Negative urine samples were spiked with varying hCG concentrations (6.250 mIU/mL, 12,500 mIU/mL, 25,000 mIU/mL, 50,000 mIU/mL, 100,000 mIU/mL, 200,000 mIU/mL and 500,000 mIU/mL). All tested concentrations gave a positive result. The results demonstrated that no hook effect was observed at hCG concentration up to 500,000 mIU/mL.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Traceability:
MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test is calibrated against reference material traceable to WHO International Standard 5th edition, NIBSC code 07/364.
Stability:
A 32-month real time stability test is planned to verify the shelf-life stability of the device. Three batches for each format in sealed foil pouch are currently stable for 30 months at 2°C and 30°C, and the real time stability study is still on going.
d. Specificity and cross reactivity
To evaluate specificity, 450 urine samples were collected from normal, nonpregnant female in pre-menopausal (ages 1840 years old), peri-menopausal (4155 years old) and post-menopausal (>55 years old) groups. 150 people for each age group. In each age group, 50 participants were tested with test strip, 50 participants were tested with test midstream using dip method, and 50 participants
{7}------------------------------------------------
tested with test midstream using in-stream method. No false positive results were observed for any of the age groups.
To evaluate cross-reactivity, negative and positive urine samples (0, 5 and 25 mIU/mL hCG) were spiked with potential cross reactants (500 mIU/mL hLH, 1000 mIU/mL hFSH, 1000 µIU/mL hTSH). No cross-reactivity was observed at tested concentration.
To evaluate the effect of the hCG ß-core fragment, Negative urine samples (0 and 5 mIU/mL hCG) and positive urine samples (25 and 20,000 mIU/mL hCG) were spiked with hCG ß-core fragment (hCGBcf) at concentrations of 50,000 pmol/L, 125,000 pmol/L, 250,000pmol/L and 500,000pmol/L. The performance of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test is not affected by hCG ß-core fragment concentrations up to 500,000 pmol/L.

To evaluate the effect of urine pH on the results of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test, urine samples containing 0, 5 and 25 mIU/mL hCG were tested at pH values of 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. The results indicated that urine pH ranges between 4 and 9 does not affect the performance of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test.
To evaluate the effect of urine density on the results of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test, urine samples containing 0, 5 and 25 mIU/mL hCG were tested at density values of 1.000, 1.005, 1.010, 1.015, 1.020, 1.025, 1.030 and 1.035. The results indicated that urine with a relative density of 1.035 does not affect the performance of MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test.
B. Method comparison study
Method comparison with predicate device
The performance of the new device was compared to the predicate test. Urine samples were collected from 200 women presenting to test for pregnancy. Approximately half of the 200 women were suspected to be pregnant and most of them are in the early stage of less than 5 weeks. All samples were tested with candidate and predicate devices at three POC sites (3 different professionals using the candidate device and 1 professional using the predicate device at each site). The same samples were tested on both format by different operators.
The results are summarized in the table below.
| Predicate device | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Candidate device | Positive | Negative | Total | |
| Strip Device | Positive | 101 | 0 | 101 |
| Negative | 0 | 99 | 99 | |
| Total | 101 | 99 | 200 |
| Predicate device | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Candidate device | Positive | Negative | Total |
| Midstream Device | 52 | 0 | 52 |
| In-stream method | 0 | 48 | 48 |
{9}------------------------------------------------
| Total | 52 | 48 | 100 | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Predicate device | ||||
| Candidate device | Positive | Negative | Total | |
| Midstream DeviceDip method | Positive | 49 | 0 | 49 |
| Negative | 0 | 51 | 51 | |
| Total | 49 | 51 | 100 |
The conformity between MissLan® Pregnancy Rapid Test and the predicate device is 100%.
C. Lay person study
First study:
200 women's individual pregnancy status was self-tested. Individuals with varying educational and occupational backgrounds from three sites were chosen for the study. Each subject tested her own urine sample using the device according to the package insert and provided a sample for professional testing.
The results are summarized in the table below.
Strip Device
| Strip format | Professional | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Positive | Negative | Total | ||
| Layperson | Positive | 52 | 0 | 52 |
| Negative | 0 | 48 | 48 | |
| Total | 52 | 48 | 100 |
Midstream Device
| Professional | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Midstream format(in-stream method) | Positive | Negative | Total | |
| Layperson | Positive | 26 | 0 | 26 |
| Negative | 0 | 24 | 24 | |
| Total | 26 | 24 | 50 |
| Midstream format(dip method) | Professional | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Positive | Negative | Total | ||
| Layperson | Positive | 23 | 0 | 23 |
| Negative | 0 | 27 | 27 | |
| Total | 23 | 27 | 50 |
From the above tables, the lay person results showed 100% positive and 100% negative conformity with the professional results.
Second study:
200 women's individual pregnancy status was self-tested. Negative urine sample pools were spiked with 5 mIU/mL hCG and 25 mIU/mL hCG. All aliquots were
{10}------------------------------------------------
blind labeled by the person who prepared the samples and didn't take part in the sample testing. 100 laypersons tested the 5 mIU/mL hCG aliquots and 100 laypersons tested the 25 mIU/mL hCG aliquots. Each testing site had a study administrator to observe or monitor the studies by laypersons without providing assistance to the participants.
Summary
| hCG Concentration(mIU/mL) | Lay person result | The percentage ofcorrect results (%) | |
|---|---|---|---|
| No. ofPositive | No. ofNegative | ||
| 5 | 0 | 100 | 100% |
| 25 | 100 | 0 | 100% |
Each lay person was given a questionnaire to assess the readability of the labeling. The results of the questionnaire reflected that the consumers found the test easy to use and that they did not have trouble understanding the labeling and interpreting the results.
