Intended Use

The VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) assay is intended for use with a Vitek ImmunoDiagnostic Assay Systems (VIDAS) as an automated enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) for the quantit determination of progesterone in serum or plasma. The VIDAS Progesterone assay is intended for us an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the overies and placenta.

Device Description

The VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) assay is an enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) that is performed in an automated VIDAS instrument. All assay temperature are controlled by the instrument. A pipette tip-like disposable device, the Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), serves as a solid phase for the assay as well as a pipetting device. At the time of manufacture, the SPR is coated with mouse anti-progesterone antibodies. Reagents for the assay are located in the sealed Reagent Strips. The sample is transferred into the well containing a progesterone derivative conjugated with alkaline phosphatase. Wash steps remove unbound conjugate. A fluorescent substrate, 4-methylumbellifory! phosphate, is cycled through the SPR and flouresences. The intensity of fluorescence is measured by the optical scanner in the instrument; it is inversely proportional to the progesterone concentration present in the sample.

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

The document does not explicitly state the sample size for the clinical test set used for correlation, sensitivity, or calibration studies.

The provenance of the data (e.g., country of origin, retrospective or prospective) is not mentioned in the provided summary.

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

This information is not applicable in the context of this diagnostic assay. For assays like the VIDAS Progesterone test, the "ground truth" for the test set is typically established by comparative analysis with a well-established predicate device or reference method, not by expert interpretation of images or clinical data. The DPC Coat-A-Count Progesterone assay served as the predicate device against which the VIDAS assay was compared.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The concept of an "adjudication method" (like 2+1, 3+1) is not applicable here. Adjudication methods are typically used in clinical trials or studies involving human readers and subjective interpretations (e.g., radiology studies) to resolve discrepancies among experts. For quantitative assays like this, the comparison is directly between the result of the new device and the result of the predicate/reference method.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study Was Done

No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. MRMC studies are used to evaluate the performance of human readers, sometimes with and without AI assistance, typically in medical imaging. This document describes a diagnostic assay, not an imaging device that would involve human readers interpreting AI outputs.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) Was Done

The performance detailed in this summary is effectively standalone performance. The VIDAS Progesterone assay is an automated Enzyme-Linked Fluorescent Immunoassay (ELFA) performed entirely by the VIDAS instrument. While a human initiates the test and interprets the numerical result, the "performance" of the device itself (accuracy, precision, sensitivity, etc.) is measured based on the automated output. There isn't a "human-in-the-loop" component that actively modifies the assay's output during the measurement process.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The primary ground truth used for the clinical validation was comparison with a legally marketed predicate device, specifically the DPC Coat-A-Count Progesterone assay. This serves as the reference standard against which the new device's performance (correlation) is measured. The limit of detection and precision studies also use controlled samples with known progesterone concentrations.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not provide information on a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI models. This device is a biochemical assay, not a software algorithm that undergoes a training phase with a distinct dataset. The development and optimization of such assays involve method development and validation, but not typically a "training set" as defined in AI/ML contexts.

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

As discussed in point 8, there is no explicit "training set" mentioned or implied for this biochemical assay in the context of AI/ML. The "ground truth" for the development and optimization of the assay's reagents and methodology would have been established through standard chemical and biological assay development practices, using reference materials and established analytical techniques.

Summary preparation date - 1/6/97

The VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) assay is intended for use with a Vitek ImmunoDiagnostic Assay Systems (VIDAS) as an automated enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) for the quantit determination of progesterone in serum or plasma. The VIDAS Progesterone assay is intended for us an aid in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the overies and placenta.

The Product Classification for the VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) assay is under 21CFR 862.1620 Progesterone test system and is a Class I, Triage Tier II test system. The product classification numb for the VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) is 75 JLS. The common or usual name is Enzyme-linked Fluorescent Immunoassay (ELFA) for the quantitative detection of progesterone.

The DPC Coat-A-Count Progesterone assay was used as the predicate device for the determination of substantial equivalence.

The VIDAS Progesterone (PRG) assay is an enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) that is performed in an automated VIDAS instrument. All assay temperature are controlled by the instrument. A pipette tip-like disposable device, the Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), serves as a solid phase for the assay as well as a pipetting device. At the time of manufacture, the SPR is coated with mouse anti-progesterone antibodies. Reagents for the assay are located in the sealed Reagent Strips. The sample is transferred into the well containing a progesterone derivative conjugated with alkaline phosphatase. Wash steps remove unbound conjugate. A fluorescent substrate, 4-methylumbellifory! phosphate, is cycled through the SPR and flouresences. The intensity of fluorescence is measured by the optical scanner in the instrument; it is inversely proportional to the progesterone concentration present in the sample.

The technological characteristics of the bioMerieux Progesterone enzyme-linked | fluorescent immunoassay (ELFA) are different from the radiological method (RIA) of DPC Progesterone Coat-A-Count in that ELFA uses enzymes as labels instead of redioisotopes. Therefore enzyme activity not radioactivity is measured. Enzyme-linked fluorescent immunoassay is a well established method for assaying analytes present in human serum or plasma.

Non-clinical (analytical) study summary

  • Crossreactivity Specificity studies demonstrate that the monoclonal antibody used in the VIDA 1. PRG assay is specific for progesterone. No cross-reactivity is seen with testosterone, corticosterone, 20a hydroxy-progesterone, 60 hydroxyprogesterone, 16a hydroxyprogesterone, Corticosterone, Estrone, Estriol and Estradiol. Cross-reactivity does exist with two metabolites of progesterone, specifically 5a and SB dilhydroxyprogesterone. The package insert cautions customers that individuals undergoing micronized progesterone therapy may exhibit elevated results when using the VIDAS PRG assay. 17a hydroxyprogesterone and decrycorticosterone demonstrated minimal crossreactivity. However, the normal concentrations found in a patient sera is far below that of

{1}------------------------------------------------

progesterone. For example, in women, 17 a hydroxyprogesterone is 0.4ng/ml during the follicular phase and 1.8ng/ml in the luteal phase. In men the normal concentration is Ing/ml. For deoxycorticosterone the normal range is 40 - 160pg/ml. It is not likely that the VIDAS PRG assay will cause a falsely elevated progesterone result, due to the relative weak sera concentrations of 170 hydroxyprogesterone and deoxycorticosterone.

    1. Interfering Substances No interference in VIDAS PRG assay performance was seen with servan collected in dry glass tubes containing a separating gel, and tubes containing lithium heparin and EDTA. No interference in the VIDAS PRG assay performance was seen with a range of concentrations of hemoglobin, lipids, or bilirubin.
    1. Precision/Reproducibility Intra-assay precision stodies showed coefficients of variation ranging from 14.3% for 0.46 ng/ml to 3.8% for 45.1 ng/ml. Inter-assay reproducibility over a eight-week time period showed coefficients of variation ranging from 24.3% for 0.4 ng/ml to 3.1% for 45 norml. Inter-assay, inter-instrument reproducibility for five different serum samples in eight assays on different instruments vields coefficients of variation that do not exceed 5.4%.
