Intended Use / Indications for Use
Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Strip 20 and Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Dipcard 20 is a rapid, screening test for the qualitative detection of Marijuana and their metabolites in human urine at the cut-off concentration of 20 ng/mL.
Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Strip 50 and Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Dipcard 50 is a rapid, screening test for the qualitative detection of Marijuana and their metabolites in human urine at the cut-off concentration of 50 ng/mL.
The tests contain two formats:1) Test Strip and 2) Test Dipcard. The tests are intended for in vitro diagnostics use. They are intended for over-the-counter use.
The tests provide only a preliminary result. To obtain a confirmed analytical result, a more specific alternative chemical method must be used. Gas Chromatography/Mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or Liquid chromatography/Mass spectrometry (LC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are obtained.

Description of the test set, sample size, data source, and annotation protocol
Precision Study: Drug free specimens were spiked with target drug (-)-11-nor-9-Carboxy-Δ'-THC at 0, +/- 75% cutoff, +/- 25% cutoff and +100% cutoff of drug. The concentrations of the target drugs were confirmed with LC/MS. Each concentration of the urine specimen was divided into aliquots. Each aliquot was blindly labeled by a nonparticipant. Separate sets of blinded coded samples were assigned and randomized prior to testing. The study was conducted by 6 operators at 3 Point-of-Care sites. Two operators per location tested 3 aliquots at each concentration for each lot per day (3 runs/day) for 10 non-consecutive days using one device lot per location. One operator tested the test strip format and the second operator test dipcard format. There were 1620 observations by 3 sites at 9 concentrations.
Accuracy Study: 80 clinical urine specimens were analyzed by LC/MS and by 3 lots of Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Strip and Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test Dipcard. Samples were divided by concentration into five categories: drug free, less than half the cutoff, near cutoff negative, near cutoff positive, and high positive.
Home Use Consumer Study: 180 lay users from age 18 to 65 years participated in the study. Urine samples were prepared at the following concentrations: 0, +/- 50% cutoff and +100% cutoff and +100% cutoff by spiking target drug (-)-11-nor-9-Carboxy-A2-THC into drug free urine specimens. Each sample contain different drugs and the different concentrations. The concentrations of target drugs were confirmed with LC/MS. Each participant performed only 1 test on provided specimen with one format of Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test (Strip, Dipcard) using the English package insert as guide to perform the test. They were asked to fill out an English questionnaire after finishing the test.
Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Cross-reactivity with structurally similar compounds: Tested cross-reactivity with drug metabolites and structurally similar compounds in urine using 3 lots of test Strip and test Dipcard. Compounds were added to drug-free normal human urine, tested in 3 replicates, and diluted sequentially if positive results were observed to identify the lowest concentration generating a positive result.
Interference: Tested compounds at 100μg/mL (albumin at 100 mg/dL, ethanol at 1%) in drug-free urine and in target drug spiked urine (at 50% below and 50% above cut-off levels) using 3 lots of test Strip and test Dipcard. None of the listed compounds showed interference.
Effect of urinary pH: pH of negative urine pool adjusted to 3-9 in 1 pH unit increments, spiked with target drug at 50% below and 50% above cutoff. Tested by 3 lots of test Strip and test Dipcard. Results demonstrated no interference from varying pH.
Effect of Urinary specific gravity: Specific gravity studies were conducted on different specific gravity including 1.000, 1.002, 1.010, 1.020, 1.030, 1.040 specimens and spiked with target drug at 50% below and 50% above Cut-Off levels. Each sample was tested by 3 lots of test Strip and test Dipcard. Results demonstrated no effect from varying urinary specific gravity on test results.
Precision: Performed using 3 lots of test Strip and test Dipcard. Samples spiked with target drug at 0, +/- 75% cutoff, +/- 25% cutoff, and +100% cutoff. Concentrations confirmed with LC/MS.

8.7 Home Use Consumer Study
180 lay users from age 18 to 65 years participated in the study. Urine samples were prepared at the following concentrations: 0, +/- 50% cutoff and +100% cutoff and +100% cutoff by spiking target drug (-)-11-nor-9-Carboxy-A2-THC into drug free urine specimens. Each sample contain different drugs and the different concentrations. The concentrations of target drugs were confirmed with LC/MS. Each participant performed only 1 test on provided specimen with one format of Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test (Strip, Dipcard) using the English package insert as guide to perform the test. They were asked to fill out an English questionnaire after finishing the test. Results were as follows:

180 questionnaires were distributed collected. The results show that the test is easy to be used and the instruction insert is clear.
Evaluation of the readability of the labeling
The entire package insert readability was assessed. We choose 30 chain sentences from Instructions Insert at OTC user read. The numbers of polysyllabic words are 10 words. According to SMOG Conversion Table of Appendix B the SMOG Readability Formula of "Labeling of Home-Use In Vitro Testing Products: Approved Guideline: GP-14A5", the reading level belong to 6 degree.
9. Conclusion:
The data collected in the performance and accuracy studies demonstrate that the Rapid Marijuana (THC) Test are substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
