No
The description focuses on PCR and nucleic acid hybridization techniques performed on an automated analyzer, with no mention of AI or ML.

No.
This device is a diagnostic test used to detect Chlamydia trachomatis, not to treat any condition.

Yes

The 'Intended Use' section explicitly states that the COBAS AMPLICOR™ Chlamydia trachomatis (CT) Test "is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis in clinical specimens."

No

The device is an in vitro diagnostic test that utilizes a physical analyzer (COBAS AMPLICOR analyzer) and reagents to perform PCR and hybridization for detecting Chlamydia trachomatis DNA. It is not solely software.

Yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: The very first sentence explicitly states it is a "qualitative in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of Chlamydia trachomatis in clinical specimens". This directly aligns with the definition of an IVD, which is a medical device intended for use in vitro for the examination of specimens derived from the human body solely or principally for the purpose of providing information concerning a physiological state, state of health, or disease or congenital abnormality.
  • Device Description: The description details how the test works by analyzing clinical specimens (endocervical, urethral, and urine samples) using PCR and nucleic acid hybridization to detect Chlamydia trachomatis plasmid DNA. This is a classic example of an in vitro diagnostic process.
  • Clinical Performance: The document describes clinical performance studies using clinical specimens to compare the performance of this device with a predicate device. This is a standard requirement for demonstrating the effectiveness of an IVD.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Non-Clinical Performance:
The analytical sensitivity (limit of detection) of the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test is 1 Inclusion Forming Unit for all 15 Chlamydia serovars (A, B, Ba, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L1, L2, L3). The analytical specificity for the AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test was evaluated using 105 bacteria, yeasts and viruses. No organism gave a result greater than 0.016 Assn. These results are consistent with those observed for the AMPLICOR Chlamvdia Trachomatis Test.

The reproducibility of the Roche COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamvatis Test on the COBAS AMPLICOR analyzer was determined in a multi-operator analysis of swab samples spiked with Chlamydia organism at four levels. AMPLICOR C. trachomatis positive and negative kit controls, and six patient samples spanning the reportable range for the assay (24 samples per test run; two complete A-tube rings). Samples were analyzed by independent operators for three days using three different analyzers. The test results for all samples (STM specimens spiked at 50, 10, 1 and 0 IFUPCR, positive and negative kit controls, and the patient specimens) were 100% correct. The reproducibility of the assay was calculated from the absorbance values obtained from the replicates of the spiked STM specimens and the Kit Controls. The Analysis of Variance calculations for these data are provided in Table 2.

Clinical Performance:
The comparative clinical performance between the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlanydia trachomatis Test and the AMPLICOR Chlamydia Trachomatis Test was determined using 639 clinical specimens (266 endocervical swabs, 93 male urethral swabs, and 280 male urine specimens). Equivalent results were obtained for specimens tested by the two test procedures.

(a)
Identification. Chlamydia serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to chlamydia in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of chlamydia antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye used to identify chlamydia directly from clinical specimens or cultured isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by bacteria belonging to the genusChlamydia and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Chlamydia are the causative agents of psittacosis (a form of pneumonia), lymphogranuloma venereum (a venereal disease), and trachoma (a chronic disease of the eye and eyelid).(b)

The clinical and non-clinical performance of the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia Test is substantially equivalent to the AMPLICOR Chlamydia Trachomatis Test.

Similarities and Differences to Predicate Device:

The COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test is similar in design, reagent composition, function and intended use to the commercial microwell plate format AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test (K922906/C). The COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test uses without modification the AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test STD Swab Specimen Collection and Transport Kit, the AMPLICOR STD Swab and the Urine Specimen Preparation Kits for specimen collection, specimen preparation and PCR amplification (see Table 1). The COBAS AMPLICOR Detection Kit reagents are similar in function and formulation to those in the AMPLICOR Chlanydia trachomatis Detection Test. The solid support for the DNA detection probe has been changed from a polystyrene microwell plate to magnetic microparticles to permit automation of the detection on the COBAS AMPLICOR.

Similarities

  • AMPLICOR STD Specimen Collection and Transport Kit (P/N 83075) for the collection and transport of male ー and female swab specimens.
  • AMPLICOR STD Specimen Preparation Kits (PN 83002 and 83006) for the processing of swab and urine specimens.
  • AMPLICOR CT Amplification Kit (P/N 83008). -
  • Identical biotinylated primers (CP24 and CP27) for defining the CT DNA target sequence for amplification.

1

  • Hybridization of biotinylated amplicon generated in the PCR reaction to the same CP35 CT-specific DNA probe
  • Identical Detection Reagent formulations (Denaturation Solution, Substrate B and 10-X Wash -Concentrate)
  • Identical detections based on the measurement chromophore absorbance following oxidation of -3,3',5,5'-tetramethybenzidine by horseradish peroxidase in the presence of hydrogen peroxide.

Differences

  • Automated pipetting of amples and reagent, washing, thermal cycling, hybridization and detection steps of the test procedure.
  • -The avidin-HRP Conjugate Buffer in the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test contains bovine serum albumin compared to bovine gamma globulin in the AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis MWP Test.
  • Change of solid support from polystyrene microwell plate to magnetic microparticles, -
  • Slightly modified thermal cycle profile for the COBAS AMPLICOR to give equivalent performance to the -Perkin Elmer 9600 thermal cycler.
  • No Stop Reagent is required with the COBAS AMPLICOR assay. Since the automated analyzer precisely times each step of the hybridization and detection procedures, it is not necessary to add Stop Reagent at the conclusion of the substrate incubation step. Accordingly, the optical density of the oxidation products from the detection reaction is measured at 660 nm in the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test as compared to 450 nm in the AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis MWP Test system since the Stop Reagent modifies the oxidation state of the TMB reaction product, from the detection, shifting the absorbance maximum of the chromophore from 660 nm to 450 nm.

Non-Clinical Performance:

The analytical sensitivity (limit of detection) of the COBAS AMPLICOR Chlamydia trachomatis Test is 1 Inclusion Forming Unit for all 15 Chlamydia serovars (A, B, Ba, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L1, L2, L3).
