2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Precision Study: For each drug (Fentanyl, Norfentanyl) and each of the 9 concentration levels, 6 tests were performed per day per device lot for 10 days, across 3 lots.
    • Total Fentanyl Precision Samples: 9 concentrations * 6 tests/day * 10 days * 3 lots = 1620 tests.
    • Total Norfentanyl Precision Samples: 9 concentrations * 6 tests/day * 10 days * 3 lots = 1620 tests.
  • Interference Study: Not explicitly stated, but implies multiple tests for each of the many interfering substances across three batches of each device.
  • Specificity Study: Not explicitly stated, but implied tests for each of the listed cross-reactants.
  • Method Comparison Studies: 80 "unaltered clinical samples" (40 negative, 40 positive) were tested for each drug.
    • Total Method Comparison Samples (Fentanyl): 80 samples.
    • Total Method Comparison Samples (Norfentanyl): 80 samples.
  • Lay-User Study: 140 lay persons participated. Urine samples were prepared at 7 different concentrations for each drug, with 20 samples per concentration.
    • Total Lay-User Samples (Fentanyl): 7 concentrations * 20 samples/concentration = 140 samples.
    • Total Lay-User Samples (Norfentanyl): 7 concentrations * 20 samples/concentration = 140 samples.
  • Data Provenance: The text does not explicitly state the country of origin for the clinical samples. The studies are described retrospectively in the 510(k) summary, meaning data was collected prior to submission.
    • For the Method Comparison Study, samples were "unaltered clinical samples," suggesting they were derived from a patient population.
    • For the Precision and Lay-User studies, samples were prepared by spiking fentanyl/norfentanyl into negative urine samples/drug-free pooled urine specimens.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

  • Precision, Interference, Specificity, Effect of Urine Specific Gravity & pH Studies:
    • Ground truth for these analytical studies was established by preparing samples with known concentrations of drug, verified by LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry). This is a highly accurate analytical chemistry method. The experts here are implicitly the analytical chemists performing and verifying the LC/MS measurements. The number of such specialists is not specified, but LC/MS is an objective, quantitative method, rather than expert interpretation.
  • Method Comparison Studies:
    • The ground truth was established using LC/MS results. This is an objective analytical standard.
    • The "Comparison Studies" section mentions that "three different operators" performed the comparison tests. However, these operators are performing the rapid tests and comparing them to the LC/MS ground truth, they are not establishing the ground truth themselves. The qualifications of these rapid test operators are not specified.
  • Lay-User Study:
    • The ground truth for the prepared samples was established by LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry).
    • Lay users interpreted the results of the rapid test, and their interpretation was compared against the LC/MS ground truth. The "experts" here established the sample concentrations via LC/MS.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • Precision, Interference, Specificity, Effect of Urine Specific Gravity & pH, and Lay-User Studies: Ground truth was established by LC/MS. No human adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1) is described or needed for these analytical studies where the ground truth is objectively measured by a gold standard (LC/MS).
  • Method Comparison Studies: The rapid test results from the three operators were directly compared to the LC/MS results. The "Discordant Results" tables list specific samples where the rapid test (by a particular operator or multiple operators) differed from the LC/MS result. There is no explicit human adjudication process described for the rapid test results against the LC/MS ground truth; it's a direct comparison.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was Done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is a rapid diagnostic test (an immunoassay), not an AI-based imaging diagnostic or a device that assists human "readers" (like radiologists). Therefore, the concept of human readers improving with AI assistance does not apply here. The "operators" in the comparison study are simply performing the rapid test according to its instructions.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • This question is not applicable in the context of this device. The ETERBIO Fentanyl/Norfentanyl Rapid Test is a physical immunoassay device where human users (either laboratory personnel or lay users for the home test) directly interpret a visible line. It is not an algorithm that produces a standalone output without human interaction.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • The primary ground truth used for performance evaluation (Precision, Interference, Specificity, Method Comparison, Lay-User Studies) was LC/MS (Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry), which is an objective chemical analysis method considered the gold standard for confirming drug concentrations in urine.
  • For the Lay-User Study, the ground truth of the samples was LC/MS, and the accuracy of lay user interpretation was assessed against this LC/MS truth.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • This device is an immunoassay, not a machine learning or AI-based device that requires a "training set" in the computational sense. Therefore, this concept does not apply to the ETERBIO Fentanyl/Norfentanyl Rapid Test. Its "training" is inherent in its chemical design and manufacturing process.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • As stated above, the device does not have a "training set" in the context of machine learning. Its analytical performance relies on validated chemical reactions and manufacturing consistency.

    1. Test Principle
      ETERBIO The ETERBIO Fentanyl/Norfentanyl Rapid Test (Colloidal Gold) and Fentanyl/Norfentanyl Home Test are immunoassays based on the principle of competitive binding.

During testing, a urine specimen migrates upward by capillary action. Each target drug, if present in the urine specimen below its cutoff, will not saturate the binding sites of antibodycoated particles in the test device. The antibody-coated particles will then be captured by immobilized drug conjugate and a visible colored line will show up in the test line region. The colored line will not form in the test line region if the drug level exceeds the cutoff because it will saturate all the binding sites of anti-drug antibodies.

To serve as a procedural control, a colored line will always appear at the control line region indicating that proper volume of specimen has been added and membrane wicking has occurred.

    1. Performance Characteristics

{6}------------------------------------------------

1. Analytical Performance

a. Precision

Precision studies were carried out for samples with concentrations of -100% cut off. -75% cut off, -50% cut off, -25% cut off, cut off, +25% cut off, +50% cut off, +75% cut off and +100% cut off for each target drug. These samples were prepared by spiking fentanyl or norfentanyl in negative urine samples. Each fentanyl or norfentanyl concentration was confirmed by LC/MS. All sample aliquots were blindly labeled by the person who prepared the samples and didn't take part in the sample testing. For each concentration, tests were performed six tests per day per device lot for 10 days in a randomized order.

f. Effect of Urine Specific Gravity and Urine pH

To investigate the effect of urine specific gravity and urine pH, urine samples, with 1.000 to 1.035 specific gravity or urine samples with pH 4 to 9 were spiked with targets fentanyl and norfentanyl at 50% below and 50% above Cut-Off levels. These samples were tested using three lots of device. Results were all positive for samples at and above +50% Cut-Offs and all negative for samples at and below -50% Cut-Offs.

2. Comparison Studies

Method comparison studies for the ETERBIO Fentanyl Test were performed by three different operators. Operators ran 80 (40 negative and 40 positive) unaltered clinical samples. The samples were blind labeled and compared to LC/MS results are presented in the tables below.

3. Lay-user study

A lay user study was performed at three testing sites with 140 lay persons. They had diverse educational and professional backgrounds and ranged in age from 18 to >50 years. Urine samples were prepared at the following concentrations; -100%, +/-50%, +/-50%, +/-25% of the cut-offs by spiking drug(s) into drug free-pooled urine specimens. The concentrations of the samples were confirmed by LC/MS. Each sample was aliquoted into individual containers, blind-labeled and randomized. Each participant was provided with the package insert, 1 blind labeled sample and a device. The results are summarized below:

Lay-users were also given surveys on the ease of understanding the package insert instructions. All lay users indicated that the device instructions can be easily followed. A Flesch-Kincaid reading analysis was performed on the package insert and the score revealed a reading grade level of less than 7.

    1. Clinical Studies
      Not applicable.
    1. Conclusion
      Based on the test principle and acceptable performance characteristics including precision, cut-off, interference, specificity, method comparison and Lay-user studies of the devices, it's concluded a substantial equivalence decision.

§ 862.3650 Opiate test system.

(a)
Identification. An opiate test system is a device intended to measure any of the addictive narcotic pain-relieving opiate drugs in blood, serum, urine, gastric contents, and saliva. An opiate is any natural or synthetic drug that has morphine-like pharmocological actions. The opiates include drugs such as morphine, morphine glucoronide, heroin, codeine, nalorphine, and meperedine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and in monitoring the levels of opiate administration to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An opiate test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (e.g., programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
