Innovita HCG Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test is a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for the qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin in urine or serum to aid in the early detection of pregnancy. The test is for health care professionals use including professionals at point of care (POC).
The Innovita HCG Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test measures the presence of the hormone Human Chorionic Gonadotrophin (HCG) in human urine or serum for the early detection of pregnancy. During pregnancy, HCG is produced by the placenta shortly after the embryo attaches to the uterine lining. The test device is used as a single cassette device.
The provided text describes the performance characteristics of the Innovita HCG Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test, a rapid chromatographic immunoassay for qualitative detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) in urine or serum to aid in early detection of pregnancy.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and the study proving the device meets them, based on the provided document:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The "Acceptance Criteria" for this device are implicitly tied to its performance characteristics, aiming to demonstrate substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device (K203272, Alltest Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test Cassette). The document doesn't explicitly list "acceptance criteria" as pass/fail thresholds in a formal table, but rather presents the results of various analytical studies that collectively support the device's accuracy, precision, and reliability.
However, based on the performance data presented, here's a table summarizing the implicit criteria and the reported performance:
| Acceptance Criterion (Implicit) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Cut-off Values (Sensitivity) | Serum: 10 mIU/mL verified (100% positive at 10 mIU/mL, 46.7% negative at 7.5 mIU/mL transitioned to 53.3% positive). Urine: 20 mIU/mL verified (100% positive at 20 mIU/mL, 45.6% negative at 15 mIU/mL transitioned to 54.4% positive; 20% negative at 17.5 mIU/mL transitioned to 80% positive). |
| Precision/Reproducibility (across lots, sites, operators) | Serum: At 10 mIU/mL and above, 100% positive across all 3 lots, 3 sites, and 6 operators (total 90 tests each concentration). At 7.5 mIU/mL, 46.7% negative and 53.3% positive results demonstrating transition range. Urine: At 20 mIU/mL and above, 100% positive across all 3 lots, 3 sites, and 6 operators (total 90 tests each concentration). At 15 mIU/mL, 45.6% negative and 54.4% positive results. At 17.5 mIU/mL, 20% negative and 80% positive. |
| Stability | Stable at 4-30°C for 24 months based on shelf-time stability study. |
| High Dose Effect (Hook Effect) | No hook effect observed at HCG concentrations ranging from 500 to 2,000,000 mIU/mL. |
| Specificity / Cross-Reactivity (Interference from related substances) | hCG ß-core fragment: No interference observed with up to 2x10^6 pmol/L. Glycoprotein hormones (LH, FSH, TSH): No interference observed at LH up to 500 mIU/mL, FSH up to 1000 mIU/mL, and TSH up to 1000 µIU/mL. |
| Interference from Common Exogenous Compounds | No positive or negative interference observed with a wide range of compounds (e.g., Acetaminophen, Caffeine, Alcohol, Glucose, Hemoglobin, various drugs) at specified high concentrations (listed in document). |
| Effect of Urine Specific Gravity & pH | No interference observed from pH ranging from 4 to 9 and specific gravity ranging from 1.000 to 1.035. |
| Method Comparison (vs. Predicate Device) | Urine Cassette: 100% agreement (52 positive, 56 negative) with the predicate device. Serum Cassette: 100% agreement (47 positive, 55 negative) with the predicate device. |
2. Sample Sizes and Data Provenance
-
Test Set Sample Size:
- Precision/Reproducibility/Cut-Off Value Study: For each HCG concentration, 6 replicates per day for 5 days, using 3 different lots, across 3 testing sites. This totals 90 individual tests per concentration (6 replicates * 5 days * 3 lots = 90). The number of unique samples (negative serum/urine spiked with HCG) is not explicitly stated beyond "Negative serum or urine specimens from females were spiked with varying HCG concentrations."
- High Dose Effect Study: Spiked samples tested by 3 different lots and 3 different operators. The exact number of replicate tests is not specified, but multiple concentrations were tested.
- Effects of hCG ß-core fragment, LH, FSH, TSH interference studies: Samples tested by 3 different lots and 3 different operators. Number of replicates not specified.
- Interference from Common Exogenous Compounds: Each spiked sample tested using 3 different lots; number of replicates per lot not specified.
- Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH: Tested using 3 different lots by 3 different operators; number of replicates not specified.
- Method Comparison Study: 108 urine samples and 102 serum samples from 210 women.
-
Data Provenance:
- No specific country of origin is mentioned for the clinical samples. The submitter is INNOVITA (Tangshan) Biological Technology Co., Ltd. in China, and the contact person is in the USA.
- The method comparison study states: "108 urine and 102 serum samples were collected from 210 women... from three testing sites." The study is described as "A method comparison study was performed," suggesting a prospective collection of samples for the purpose of the study, rather than retrospective. The samples were from "women expecting to be pregnant, early stage at less than 5 weeks."
3. Number of Experts and Qualifications for Ground Truth
- The document states that for the Precision/Reproducibility study, tests were performed by six different operators for each sample concentration across three sites, and the interference studies were performed by three different operators.
- The "Method Comparison Study" states: "Samples were tested by different health professionals with the proposed and the predicate devices at each site."
- Qualifications of these "operators" or "health professionals" are not specified beyond their role in performing the tests. No mention is made of "experts" specifically establishing a ground truth through consensus in the studies described.
- The ground truth for the analytical studies (precision, cut-off, interference) was established by the known concentrations of spiked HCG (traceable to the 5th WHO international Standard).
- For the comparative study, the "ground truth" was essentially the result of the predicate device (K203272). The study aims to show agreement with the predicate, not necessarily against an independent clinical "true" state confirmed by external means like pathology or clinical outcomes.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
- For the analytical studies (precision, cut-off, interference), the "ground truth" was the known spiked concentration of HCG. The "adjudication" was the comparison of the device's result ("-" or "+") against this known concentration. There's no mention of an expert adjudication process in this context, as results are quantitative comparisons to predefined levels.
- For the Method Comparison Study, the document states "The study result shows 100% agreement for all samples to the predicate device." This implies a direct comparison of the new device's result to the predicate device's result for each sample. There's no indication of an adjudication method (e.g., 2+1 or 3+1 expert review) for resolving discrepancies, as presumably, there were no discrepancies ("100% agreement").
5. Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study
- No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study, as typically understood for evaluating AI-assisted workflows in diagnostic imaging, was not performed. This device is a rapid diagnostic test kit, not an AI or imaging device that assists human readers.
- The comparison study was between the new device and a predicate device, both read by "different health professionals." The effectiveness is measured by agreement between the devices, not by human reader performance improvement with/without AI assistance.
6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance
- This question is not applicable to this device. The Innovita HCG Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test is a lateral flow immunoassay cassette, not a software algorithm or an AI system that would have a "standalone" algorithmic performance. Its performance is intrinsically linked to the physical test kit's chemical reactions and visual interpretation.
7. Type of Ground Truth Used
- For the analytical performance studies (precision, cut-off, high dose, specificity, interference, pH/SG): The ground truth was analytical truth based on known, precisely controlled concentrations of HCG (traceable to WHO international standard) and interferents spiked into negative or known positive samples.
- For the method comparison study: The ground truth was effectively the results obtained from the legally marketed predicate device (K203272). This is a common approach for demonstrating substantial equivalence for in vitro diagnostic devices. No pathology or long-term clinical outcome data was used as ground truth for this submission.
8. Sample Size for the Training Set
- Not applicable / Not explicitly stated. This is a rapid diagnostic test kit, not a machine learning model that typically requires a large "training set" of data. The "training" of such a device is in its chemical and biological design and manufacturing process, not in data-driven algorithmic learning.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
- Not applicable. As above, there's no "training set" in the context of an AI/ML device. The "ground truth" for developing and manufacturing such a chemical assay would involve rigorous quality control, calibration, and R&D studies based on established biological and chemical principles, likely using purified HCG standards and clinical samples. However, the document does not detail these developmental processes.

9. Test Principle
The kit is a double antibody sandwich immunochromatographic assay that detects the presence of HCG in human serum or urine specimens. Anti ß-HCG antibodies conjugated with colloidal gold is deposited on the conjugate pad, and Anti α-HCG antibodies are immobilized on the test line of the nitrocellulose membrane. When the specimen is applied, the gold-antibody conjugate is rehydrated and the HCG, if there is sufficient HCG in the specimen, interacts with the gold-conjugated antibodies. The antigen-antibody-gold complex then migrates towards the test window until the Test Zone (T) where it gets captured by immobilized antibodies, forming a visible redpurple line (Test line), indicating a positive result. If HCG is absent from the specimen, no red-purple line will be visible in the Test Zone (T), indicating a negative result.
To serve as an internal process control line should always appear at Control Zone (C) after the test is completed. Absence of a red-purple control line in the Control Zone(C) indicates an invalid result.

b. Stability Stable at 4-30℃ for 24 months based on the shelf time stability study.
c. Specificity / Cross Reactivity
High Dose Effect
Negative urine and serum samples from females were spiked with varying high HCG concentrations ranging from 500 to 2,000,000 mIU/mL. The spiked samples were
{6}------------------------------------------------
tested by 3 different lots and 3 different operators. No hook effect was observed at these concentrations.
Effects of hCG ß-core fragment
Negative and positive samples (5 and 10 mIU/mL HCG in serum; 10 and 20 mIU/mL HCG in urine) were spiked with various concentrations of ß -core fragment HCG (0 to 2x106pmol/L). These samples were tested by 3 different lots and 3 different operators. No difference was observed for different lots and different operators. No interference was observed for these samples with 2x106 pmol/L 3-core fragment hCG for the devices.
Effects of glycoprotein LH, FSH and TSH
Negative and positive samples from females (10 and 20 mIU/mL HCG for urine, and 5 and 10 mIU/mL HCG for serum) were spiked with various concentrations of other glycoprotein hormones such as LH, FSH, and TSH. Samples were tested using three different lots by three operators. No interference was observed for these samples for the device at LH concentrations up to 500 mIU/mL, FSH concentrations up to 1000 mIU/mL, and TSH concentrations up to 1000 µIU/mL.
d. Interference
To evaluate potential interference from certain exogenous compounds, each interferent was made at 100X concentrate bulk and spiked in both HCG negative (5mIU/mL for serum, 10mIU/mL for urine) and HCG positive (10mIU/mL for serum, 20mIU/mL for urine) samples. All urine and serum samples were taken from women. Each spiked urine sample was mixed for 5 minutes to ensure a homogeneous solution before testing. Each sample was tested using 3 different lots of the testing kit. Results are shown in the following table which lists the highest concentration tested that did not cause positive or negative interference in either serum or urine samples.

e. Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH
Negative and positive urine samples containing 10 and 20 mIU/mL HCG were tested at pH values from 4 to 9 and at specific gravity values ranging from 1.000 to 1.035 using 3 different lots by 3 different operators. Data show that there is no interference from pH ranging from 4 to 9 and specific gravity ranging from 1.000 to 1.035 of tested urine samples.
f. Comparison Studies
A method comparison study was performed, comparing the results obtained from the Innovita HCG Pregnancy Rapid Combo Test to the results from predicate devices (K203272). 108 urine and 102 serum samples were collected from 210 women (all of these women expect themselves to be pregnant, early stage at less than 5 weeks, and have not undergone any at home or in office pregnancy testing before participating in this study) from three testing sites. Samples were randomly collected at various times throughout the day. Ages ranged from 20 to 49 years old. Samples were tested by different health professionals with the proposed and the predicate devices at each site. The obtained results are shown in the following tables.
