For In Vitro Diagnostic Use
For the quantitative measurement of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) in human plasma (heparin) using the VITROS 5600 Integrated System.
Cardiac troponin I is used to aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction (MI).
The VITROS hs Troponin I assay is performed using the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products hs Troponin I Reagent Pack and the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products hs Troponin I Calibrators on the VITROS 5600 Integrated System. An immunometric immunoassay technique is used. Cardiac troponin I present in the sample reacts simultaneously with streptavidin-conjugated antibody (mouse monoclonal anti- cTnI), bound by biotin-BSA on the wells, and a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-labeled antibody conjugate (mouse monoclonal anti-cTnI). The antigen-antibody complex is captured by the antibody on the wells. Unbound materials are removed by washing. The bound HRP conjugate is measured by a luminescent reaction. A reagent containing luminogenic substrates (a luminol derivative and a peracid salt) and an electron transfer agent is added to the wells. The HRP in the bound conjugate catalyzes the oxidation of the luminol derivative, producing light. The electron transfer agent (a substituted acetanilide) increases the level of light produced and prolongs its emission. The light signals are read by the system. The amount of HRP conjugate bound is directly proportional to the concentration of cardiac troponin I present.

Detection Limit
The Limit of Detection (LoD) for the VITROS hs Troponin I test was consistent with CLSI document EP17-A2. The observed LoD was determined to be 0.59 ng/L. The observed Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) at 20% CV was determined to be 0.59 ng/L, consistent with CLSI document EP17-A2. The claimed LoQ is set at 0.59 ng/L.
| LoD | LoQ (20% CV) |
|---|---|
| 0.59 ng/L | 0.59ng/L |
Linearity
Linearity studies were performed in line with CLSI document EP06 2nd edition. The linearity of the VITROS hs Troponin I test was established following CLSI EP06-ED2. For cTnI, the measurement procedure shows linearity for the interval from 2.25 to 30,000 ng/L, with deviations from linearity within +/- 10%.
Two studies were conducted. The first study used test fluids comprised of human plasma (troponin-stripped/low protease/buffer matrix) and spanned the entire measuring interval using 11 levels with a minimum of 3 replicates for each level, the observed % deviation from linearity ranged from -4.2% to 2.3%. The second study used lithium heparin plasma patient samples and spanned the low end up to 4799 ng/L with 12 levels and a minimum of 5 replicates for each level, the observed % deviation from linearity ranged from -9.0% to 8.5%.

| 10.1 g/dL | 390 ng/L | Increased cTnI results | +3% |
*Streptokinase is not commercially available in the United States.
**Test results compared to a control sample with total protein concentration of 7.3 g/dL.
Note: These results are representative. The degree of interference at concentrations other than those listed might not be predictable from these results. Other interfering substances may be encountered in the patient population.
Other Limitations
-
Dextran at therapeutic doses significantly interferes with this test. This test should not be used on patients taking Dextran. An alternate method not subject to Dextran interference should be used.
-
Heterophile as well as human anti-animal antibodies (most common human anti-mouse antibodies or HAMA) in serum or plasma of certain individuals are known to cause interference with immunoassays.¹ The anti-animal antibodies may be present in blood samples from individuals regularly exposed to animals or who have received preparations

Page 10
of mouse monoclonal antibodies for diagnosis or therapy. Results inconsistent with clinical observations indicate the need for additional testing.
- Troponin autoantibodies have been reported to be present in approximately 10% to 20% of patients presenting to the emergency department (ED) and may lead to falsely low troponin assay results and delay in treatment of acute coronary syndrome.²,³ Therefore, a test result that is inconsistent with the clinical picture and patient history should be interpreted with caution.
Substances that do not Interfere
The VITROS hs Troponin I test was evaluated for interference in lithium heparin plasma samples consistent with CLSI EP07 and EP37. Of the compounds tested, none was found to cause a bias of >10% with the test at the concentrations indicated at nominal cTnI concentrations of 10.00 ng/L and 350.0 ng/L.

cTnC was spiked into one Lithium Heparin plasma pool with endogenous cTnI at approximately 10.00 ng/L. cTnC (Purified from Human heart tissue, 98% purity) was prepared as a concentrate before spiking into the sample pool to yield a cTnC concentration of 80,000 ng/L. An equal volume of the relevant solvent was added to each of the control pools for comparison. Interim dilutions were also prepared at 75%, 50% and 25% of the high pool, yielding concentrations of 60,000 ng/L, 40,000 ng/L and 20,000 ng/L. Five replicates were collected for each fluid level. The percent bias between the test/interim dilutions and control samples was calculated: 100 * (Spike – Control Sample)/Control Sample.

High Dose Hook
The VITROS hs Troponin I test has no high dose hook effect up to a concentration of 100,000ng/L.
Expected Values
The VITROS hs Troponin I 99th percentile URLs were established from lithium heparin plasma of nine hundred fifty-two (952) apparently healthy adults,including 486 female and 466 male subjects. The results included variation from reagent lots, systems, operators, and reagent age. The subjects ranged in age from 22 to 91 years old, with fifty-nine percent of the subjects ≥ 50 years of age.
Subjects were excluded if they met any of the following exclusion criteria:
- History of kidney disease, diabetes, heart disease, cancer, lung disease,thyroid disease, or stroke
- High blood pressure, cholesterol or triglycerides
- Muscle or skeletal injury or surgery in the last 3 months
- Current smoker
- Pregnancy
- Additional exclusion criteria:
- Hemoglobin A1c ≥ 6.5%
- NT-proBNP > 125 pg/mL for subjects < 75 years of age or > 450 pg/mLfor subjects ≥ 75

years of age
- eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m²
The overall observed 99th percentile URL from the 952 lithium heparin plasma samples is 11 ng/L (90% CI of 8.2 – 14.3 ng/L). The 99th percentile URL values and respective 90% Confidence Intervals (CI), determined for lithium heparin plasma (females, males, and overall) using the non-parametric statistical method, are shown in the table below.
| Sample Type | Gender | Number of Subjects | 99th Percentile URL ng/L (pg/mL) | 90% CI* ng/L (pg/mL) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lithium Heparin Plasma | Female | 486 | 9 | 3.9 - 17.5 |
| Male | 466 | 12 | 8.8 - 20.9 | |
| Overall | 952 | 11 | 8.2 - 14.3 |

High Sensitivity Determination
For a troponin test to be labelled as high sensitivity it must fulfil the two IFCC TF-CB established criteria:
- The test should have analytical imprecision (% CV) at the 99th percentile ≤ 10% and
- The test should measure troponin concentrations above the Limit of Detection (LoD) in ≥ 50% of healthy male and subjects ≥ 50% of healthy female subjects.
Data from a Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) study was used to create a best fit regression expressing the relationship between %CV and cTnI concentration in the clinically relevant range. The analytical imprecision around the 99th percentile URL concentrations was estimated using the regression analysis.
| Sample Type | Gender | 99th PercentileURL ng/L (pg/mL) | %CV Based on LoQ Imprecision Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lithium Heparin Plasma | Female | 9 | 4.7 |
| Male | 12 | 4.5 | |
| Overall | 11 | 4.5 |
Greater than 50% of the healthy male subjects and greater than 50% of the healthy female subjects used to establish the 99th percentile had cTnI results equal to or above the claimed LoD. The VITROS hs troponin I test meets the IFCC TF-CB criteria for a high sensitivity cardiac troponin test.⁴

Clinical performance
Results of this test should be used in conjunction with the patient's history, risk factors, clinical presentation, other diagnostic tests, such as electrocardiogram (ECG), and in accordance with the appropriate clinical guidelines to aid in the diagnosis of MI.
A multi-center prospective study was conducted to assess the diagnostic accuracy of the VITROS hs Troponin I test in lithium heparin plasma.
The study included 2145 evaluable subjects from patients presenting with symptoms consistent with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) at 24 Emergency Departments (ED) across the United States. Each subject's diagnosis was determined by an independent adjudication committee consisting of US board-certified cardiologists according to the Fourth Universal Definition of Myocardial Infarction – consensus guideline.⁵ The prevalence of adjudicated MI in the study was 8.16% (175/2145).
The diagnostic accuracy of the VITROS hs Troponin I test was determined by quantifying the area under the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC)⁶ curves (AUC)⁷ for each time bracket relative to the time of patient ED presentation, within and across genders. The AUC and the two-tailed 95% confidence intervals (CIs) are presented in the table below: AUC Analysis Results for the VITROS hs Troponin I Test.

Clinical performance was determined by the following analyses:
- Sensitivity = 100xA/(A+C);
- Specificity = 100xD/(B+D);
- Negative predictive value (NPV), probability of no MI diagnosis in patients with cTnI ≤99th percentile cutoff =100xD/(C+D);
- Positive predictive value (PPV), probability of MI diagnosis in patients with cTnI >99th percentile cutoff = 100xA/(A+B);
- Negative likelihood ratio (LR-), the ratio of the likelihood of false negative results to the likelihood of true negative results= (1-sensitivity)/specificity;
- Positive likelihood ratio (LR+), the ratio of the likelihood of true positive results to the likelihood of false positive results =sensitivity/(1-specificity).
Predictive value analysis is directly related to the prevalence of the disease in the intended use population. Likelihood ratiosare not directly related to the prevalence of the disease in the intended use population and are applicable across populations with varying MI prevalence.
Data analyses were conducted with samples categorized into four time brackets related to patient ED presentation: 0-2 hours, ≥2-4 hours, ≥4-6 hours, and ≥6-11 hours.
The clinical performance of the VITROS hs Troponin I test versus adjudicated diagnosis was determined by time brackets after ED presentation for all subjects using the overall (11 ng/L) 99th percentile cutoff.

The clinical performance of the VITROS hs Troponin I test versus adjudicated diagnosis was determined by time brackets after ED presentation for female subjects using the gender-specific (9 ng/L) and overall (11 ng/L) 99th percentile cutoffs. Using the female gender-specific (9 ng/L) 99th percentile cutoff instead of the overall (11 ng/L) 99th percentile cutoff may result in a higher proportion of positive test results for females that are not having an MI.

**95% Confidence Interval
The lower bound of the CI for PPV for male subjects using the gender-specific 99th percentile (12 ng/L) cutoff was as low as 29.42% (≥2-4 hours). Cardiac troponin test results should always be interpreted in conjunction with the patient's signs, symptoms, and other clinical information.

The lower bound of the CI for PPV for male subjects using the overall 99th percentile (11 ng/L) cutoff was as low as 28.85% (0-2 hours). Cardiac troponin test results should always be interpreted in conjunction with the patient's signs, symptoms, and other clinical information.
Non-elevated VITROS hs Troponin I Test Results in Patients Adjudicated as Having MI (False Negatives)
Among the 62 female subjects adjudicated as having MI, there were 4 for whom none of the VITROS hs Troponin I test results exceeded the overall cutoff of 11 ng/L. When using the gender-specific cutoff of 9 ng/L, the number of false negatives for females was reduced from 4 to 2.
Among the 113 male subjects adjudicated as having MI, there were 8 for whom none of the VITROS hs Troponin I test results exceeded the overall cutoff of 11 ng/L. When using the gender-specific cutoff of 12 ng/L, the number of false negatives for males increased from 8 to 9.
Serial blood samples for subjects in the VITROS hs Troponin I study were drawn no more than 11 hours after ED presentation; however, clinical information of the study subjects, including standard of care (SOC) troponin test results, were collected for the subjects' entire hospital stay. The standard of care (SOC) troponin tests were the tests used by each clinical study site and were reviewed by the adjudicators for the adjudicated diagnosis.
For 2 of the male false negative subjects, the earliest SOC troponin test results that exceeded the SOC troponin cutoff were from samples drawn more than 26 hours after the final VITROS hs Troponin I sample was collected. For 2 of the female false negative subjects, the earliest SOC troponin test results that exceeded the SOC cutoff were from samples drawn more than 17 hours after the final VITROS hs Troponin I sample was collected. The adjudicated MI diagnosis for some of these subjects could therefore have been based on SOC troponin test results from samples drawn beyond the VITROS hs Troponin I study period.
Elevated VITROS hs Troponin I Test Results in Patients Adjudicated as Not Having MI (False Positives)
There are conditions other than MI that are known to cause acute or chronic myocardial injury and lead to elevated troponin values. The VITROS hs Troponin I clinical trial enrolled all subjects presenting to the emergency department with symptoms consistent with ACS. Some of these subjects had an acute or chronic condition other than MI. In the clinical trial, 15.79% (311/1970) of subjects without an MI diagnosis had at least one VITROS hs Troponin I test result above the overall 99th percentile cutoff on one or more serial draws. 91.96% (286/311) of these subjects were found to have decreased kidney function (eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73m², Stage 3 chronic kidney disease or renal failure) or one or more of the following cardiac conditions: angina, atrial fibrillation, cardiomyopathy, coronary artery disease, heart failure or tachycardia

(heart rate > 100 BPM).
Conclusions
The nonclinical and clinical data presented in the submission provides a reasonable assurance that the VITROS hs Troponin I Reagent Pack is substantially equivalent to the cleared predicate device.

§ 862.1215 Creatine phosphokinase/creatine kinase or isoenzymes test system.
(a)
Identification. A creatine phosphokinase/creatine kinase or isoenzymes test system is a device intended to measure the activity of the enzyme creatine phosphokinase or its isoenzymes (a group of enzymes with similar biological activity) in plasma and serum. Measurements of creatine phosphokinase and its isoenzymes are used in the diagnosis and treatment of myocardial infarction and muscle diseases such as progressive, Duchenne-type muscular dystrophy.(b)
