Intended Use
HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX is an automated assay for the photometric, quantitative determination of factor IX activity in 3.2% citrated plasma on the ACL TOP® Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series in the laboratory setting by a healthcare professional. HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX is indicated for use on patients when identifying factor IX deficiency or measuring factor IX activity from patients on replacement therapy. For adult population only. For prescription use only.
Device Description
Factor IX activity in a patient's plasma is determined using a chromogenic method, in which human factor IX is activated by human factor XIa, and, when formed, factor IXa activates human factor X in the presence of human factor VIII, calcium and phospholipid. The amount of factor Xa generated is proportionate to the factor IX activity and is determined from the hydrolysis of a chromogenic factor Xa substrate. Results are determined by comparing a chromogenic signal to a calibration curve.
More Information

K031829 HemosIL Factor IX deficient plasma

No
The summary describes a standard chromogenic assay for measuring factor IX activity. There is no mention of AI, ML, or any related technologies in the device description, intended use, or performance studies. The analysis relies on comparing a chromogenic signal to a calibration curve, which is a traditional method.

No

This device is an in vitro diagnostic assay used to measure factor IX activity, which aids in identifying factor IX deficiency or monitoring patients on replacement therapy. It does not provide any direct therapeutic benefit to the patient.

Yes.

The device is intended for the "quantitative determination of factor IX activity" and is "indicated for use on patients when identifying factor IX deficiency or measuring factor IX activity from patients on replacement therapy," which are diagnostic purposes.

No

The device is described as an automated assay using a chromogenic method to determine factor IX activity in plasma. This involves reagents and likely hardware (the ACL TOP Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series instruments) to perform the photometric measurements and analysis. It is not solely software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for the "photometric, quantitative determination of factor IX activity in 3.2% citrated plasma" and is "indicated for use on patients when identifying factor IX deficiency or measuring factor IX activity from patients on replacement therapy." This clearly describes a test performed on a biological sample (plasma) to provide information about a patient's health status (factor IX deficiency or activity).
  • Device Description: The description details a method for analyzing a biological sample (plasma) using a chemical reaction and photometric measurement to determine a specific analyte (factor IX activity). This is characteristic of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Care Setting: The test is performed in a "laboratory setting by a healthcare professional," which is the typical environment for IVD testing.
  • Sample Type: The test uses "3.2% citrated plasma," a biological sample.

The information provided aligns perfectly with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device, which is used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

Test PrincipleFactor 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.Factor IX activity in a patient's plasma is
determined using a chromogenic method, in
which human factor IX is activated by human
factor XIa, and, when formed, factor IXa
activates human factor X in the presence of
human factor VIII, calcium and phospholipid.
The amount of factor Xa generated is
proportionate to the factor IX activity and is
determined from the hydrolysis of a
chromogenic factor Xa substrate. Results are
determined by comparing a chromogenic signal
to a calibration curve.
MethodologyFunctional clotting assayChromogenic assay
Kit ComponentsFactor IX deficient plasma: Lyophilized
human plasma that has been artificially
depleted of factor IX containing buffer and

less than or equal to 1% whereas all other

Limit of Blank (LoB), Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantitation (LoQ)

LoB, LoD and LoQ studies were performed in accordance with CLSI EP17-A2, using three reagent lots of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX on representative members of the ACL TOP Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series.

The following maximum limits were determined:

Limit of Blank (LoB)Limit of Detection (LoD)Limit of Quantitation (LoQ)
0.1%0.3%0.6%

Linearity

Linearity studies were performed in accordance with CLSI EP06, 2nd Edition, using three reagent lots of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX on a representative member of the ACL TOP Family and one reagent lot on a representative member of the ACL TOP Family 50 Series. The studies support a reportable linear range on the ACL TOP Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series of 1.0 to 150%.

Interferences and Limitations

Interference studies were performed in accordance with CLSI EP07, 3dd Edition (where applicable), using a minimum of one reagent lot of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX on a representative member of the ACL TOP Family or ACL TOP Family 50 Series model. The studies support that results on the ACL TOP Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series are not affected by the following interferents up to:

Hemoglobin1000 mg/dL
Bilirubin (unconjugated)40 mg/dL
Bilirubin (conjugated)40 mg/dL
Triglycerides1500 mg/dL
Unfractionated heparin2.0 IU/mL

Dabigatran5.0 mg/L
Rivaroxaban0.05 mg/L
Fondaparinux1.02 mg/L
Lupus anticoagulantdRVVT Screen/Confirm Ratio 1.8

Note: Warfarin inhibits vitamin K dependent coagulation factors and interferes with the quantification of factor IX activity.

Due to different methodologies used to assign potency for factor IX replacement therapies, differences between factor IX recovery may exist. For recommendations on monitoring factor IX replacement therapy, refer to current guidance and factor IX replacement therapy prescribing information.

To avoid discrepancies that have been reported, consider performing both a chromogenic and one stage factor IX clotting assay for the laboratory investigation of patients being assessed due to the clinical suspicion of hemophilia B. Results of this test should always be interpreted in conjunction with the patient's medical history, clinical presentation and other findings.

Normal Reference Interval

A normal reference interval study was performed in accordance with CLSI EP28-A3c on one reagent lot of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX with a representative ACL TOP Family instrument. A population of 120 plasma samples from apparently healthy individuals were tested. The nonparametric 95% reference interval with two-sided 90% confidence intervals was calculated as 71.1 to 134.1% (0.7-1.3 IU/mL).

Due to many variables which may affect the results (including the population age), each laboratory should determine its own normal range.

Recovery of Factor IX Replacement Therapies

A recovery study was performed using one reagent lot of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX on a representative member of the ACL TOP Family. Immunodepleted FIX deficient plasma was spiked with four factor IX replacement therapies at seven to fourteen concentrations, ranging from 0.5 to 200% and percent recovery was determined. HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX accurately evaluated the potency of factor IX concentrates including AlphaNine SD, BeneFIX, and Rebinyn.

  • Per the manufacturer's recommendations, a one stage clotting assay is recommended for measurement of Idelvion and results may vary based on the APTT reagent in use.

In-Use Stability and Shelf-life

In-use stability and shelf-life studies were performed in accordance with CLSI EP25-A, using three reagent lots of HemosIL Chromogenic Factor IX on a representative ACL TOP Family model. The studies support the following labeled claims on the ACL TOP Family and ACL TOP Family 50 Series:
