Intended Use
The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is an automated, rapid multianalyte real-time PCR test for the simultaneous qualitative detection and differentiation of herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, and varicella-zoster virus DNA isolated from human cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples obtained from symptomatic patients suspected of active herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and/or varicella-zoster infection. This in vitro diagnostic test is intended to aid in the diagnosis of patients with signs or symptoms of herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, and varicella-zoster virus infection. The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended to aid in the diagnosis of herpes simplex virus 1, herpes simplex virus 2 and varicella-zoster virus active infections. The results of this test should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions and must be combined with clinical observations, patient history and/or epidemiological information. Negative results do not preclude herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2, or varicella-zoster virus infection that is not detected by a cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion swab specimen. Positive results do not rule out co-infection with other organisms. Additional laboratory testing (e.g., viral culture, immunoassay, serology) may be necessary for patient evaluation. Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is for professional use. The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is intended for use only with the Savanna instrument. Warning: The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is not intended for use with the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) or to aid in the diagnosis of HSV or VZV infections of the central nervous system (CNS). The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay is not intended for use in prenatal screening.
Device Description
The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay consists of a single, self-contained assay cartridge employing real-time PCR technology for use with the Savanna instrument to detect and differentiate DNA from herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2 and varicella-zoster virus. In approximately 24 minutes, this platform extracts, amplifies and detects DNA present in cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients and placed in transport media. To initiate the assay, a patient cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion swab specimen in transport medium is transferred via the supplied transfer pipette to the Liguid Sample Port of the Test Cartridge. The user closes the Sample Port and inserts the Test Cartridge into the Savanna instrument, initiating sample processing. The sample containing human DNA is pushed out of the Sample Port by lysis buffer, which then rehydrates the Process Internal Control (IC), and together with the paramagnetic nucleic acid binding particles, are pumped into the extraction chamber. The solution is mixed, and virus and/ or bacteria are further lysed by sonication within the extraction chamber. Specimen and IC DNA are bound to, washed and then eluted off the paramagnetic particles. The purified specimen DNA and IC solution is used to rehydrate four individual lyophilized master mixes. Each master mix is pumped into a PCR chamber and Taq-man® multiplex real-time PCR reactions are carried out under optimized conditions, generating amplicons for the targeted pathogen (if present) and the Process Internal Control (IC). Each master mix contains primers and dual-labeled probes unique for the pathogen targets and the IC. The probes are labeled with a fluorophore on one end and a quencher on the other end. Target DNA sequences are amplified by pathogen-specific primers and detected by correspondingly specific fluorescence probes. The IC targets are also amplified by specific primers and detected by an IC-specific fluorescence probe. A polymerase included in the master mix cleaves the probes bound to complementary DNA sequences, separating the fluorophore from the quencher. This step generates a signal and if it surpasses multiple defined thresholds, the sample is reported as positive for the detected target sequence. The Savanna instrument will display the test results (Positive or Invalid) on the main bay screen.

Device Description

The Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay consists of a single, self-contained assay cartridge employing real-time PCR technology for use with the Savanna instrument to detect and differentiate DNA from herpes simplex virus type 1, herpes simplex virus type 2 and varicella-zoster virus. In approximately 24 minutes, this platform extracts, amplifies and detects DNA present in cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion swab specimens obtained from symptomatic patients and placed in transport media.

To initiate the assay, a patient cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion swab specimen in transport medium is transferred via the supplied transfer pipette to the Liguid Sample Port of the Test Cartridge. The user closes the Sample Port and inserts the Test Cartridge into the Savanna instrument, initiating sample processing. The sample containing human DNA is pushed out of the Sample Port by lysis buffer, which then rehydrates the Process Internal Control (IC), and together with the paramagnetic nucleic acid binding particles, are pumped into the extraction chamber. The solution is mixed, and virus and/ or bacteria are further lysed by sonication within the extraction chamber. Specimen and IC DNA are bound to, washed and then eluted off the paramagnetic particles. The purified specimen DNA and IC solution is used to rehydrate four individual lyophilized master mixes. Each master mix is pumped into a PCR chamber and Taq-man® multiplex real-time PCR reactions are carried out under optimized conditions, generating amplicons for the targeted pathogen (if present) and the Process Internal Control (IC).

Each master mix contains primers and dual-labeled probes unique for the pathogen targets and the IC. The probes are labeled with a fluorophore on one end and a quencher on the other end. Target DNA sequences are amplified by pathogen-specific primers and detected by correspondingly specific fluorescence probes. The IC targets are also amplified by specific primers and detected by an IC-specific fluorescence probe. A polymerase included in the master mix cleaves the probes bound to complementary DNA sequences, separating the fluorophore from the quencher. This step generates a signal and if it surpasses multiple defined thresholds, the sample is reported as positive for the detected target sequence.

The Savanna instrument will display the test results (Positive or Invalid) on the main bay screen.

Repeatability/ Within-Lab Precision

A 20-day within laboratory precision study was performed with two testing events per day, each testing had two replicates of a three- member test panel on three product lots. The test panel was prepared in negative buccal cell matrix comprised of a negative sample, a co-spiked low positive sample (at LoD for each pathogen), and a co- spiked moderate positive sample (at 4 times the LoD for each pathogen). The negative sample had an overall 99.6% (239/240) expected agreement for HSV-1, 99.6% (239/240) expected agreement for HSV-2 and 100.0% (242/242) expected agreement for VZV across all lots. The

Reproducibility

A five-day, multi-site reproducibility study was conducted at three healthcare facilities. Each day, two operators at each site ran two replicates of a three-member test panel prepared in negative buccal cell matrix comprised of a negative sample, a co-spiked low positive sample (at LoD for each pathogen), and a co-spiked moderate positive sample (at 4 times the LoD for each pathogen). The negative sample had an 100% (179/179) expected agreement across all sites for all three analytes. The low positive samples were called positive 99.4% (179/180) of the time for HSV-1, 100% (180/180) of the time for HSV-2 and 100% (180/180) of the time for VZV. The moderate positive samples were called positive 99.4% (179/180) of the time for HSV-1, 100% (180/180) HSV-2 and 99.4% (179/180) for VZV. Results are in Table 8.

Clinical Performance

Performance characteristics of the Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay were established through 2 multi-site clinical studies, testing cutaneous and mucocutaneous lesions from symptomatic individuals, as described below. Clinical Study 1 evaluated assay performance from fresh samples while clinical study 2 evaluated performance after residual samples were stored frozen.

Clinical Study #1

A multi-site study was conducted in the United States to evaluate the Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay using cutaneous or mucocutaneous lesion samples in transport media. Five hundred and ninety (590) residual specimens were randomly selected from subjects with signs and symptoms of HSV-1, HSV-2 or VZV infection that were tested and for whom samples were collected in an all-comers fashion. A single replicate of each specimen was tested with both the candidate assay, Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay and the comparator assay. Testing was split across three clinical sites and 44 Savanna instruments. Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Control Sets were tested each day by the clinical sites during sample testing. The clinical performance of the Savanna HSV 1+2/VZV Assay was established by comparing to FDA-cleared nucleic acid amplification tests.

The specimens have been categorized as cutaneous (skin lesion, genital), or mucocutaneous (anorectal, genital, nares, ocular, oral and urethral). The gender and age demographics for each category are listed below.
