Intended Use
The SYNCHRON Systems 10 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL THC Urine Controls, in conjunction with the SYNCHRON Cannabinoid 20 ng (THC2) Reagent, are intended for use on SYNCHRON Systems for monitoring the quality control of cannabinoid (THC) testing in the clinical laboratory. These controls are designed for use with the family of SYNCHRON Systems which include analyzers such as the SYNCHRON CX4, CX®4CE, CX4 DELTA, CX5, CX5CE, CX5 DELTA, CX7, CX7 DELTA Systems and LX™20 Systems.
Device Description
The SYNCHRON® Systems 10 ng/mL and 40ng/mL THC Urine Controls, are ready-to-use, human urine based liquid controls designed to be used as part of a laboratory total quality management program to ensure proper THC assay performance. These controls complement the current panel of Cannabinoid reagents and controls previously cleared by the FDA. The kit consists of 1 x 5.0 mL bottle and must be stored at +2°C to + 8°C.
More Information

No
The device is a quality control material for a laboratory assay and the description focuses on its composition, storage, and performance characteristics (stability, precision) as a control. There is no mention of any computational or analytical capabilities that would suggest the use of AI/ML.

No
This device is a control used for monitoring the quality control of cannabinoid (THC) testing in a clinical laboratory; it is not intended to treat or diagnose.

No

This device is described as a control for monitoring the quality of cannabinoid (THC) testing in a clinical laboratory. It is used to ensure proper assay performance, rather than to diagnose a condition in a patient.

No

The device is a liquid control solution intended for use in laboratory testing, not a software program.

Based on the provided information, yes, this device is an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states it's for "monitoring the quality control of cannabinoid (THC) testing in the clinical laboratory." This is a classic function of an IVD, which are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. While these controls aren't directly diagnosing a patient, they are essential for ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the diagnostic test (the THC assay).
  • Device Description: It's described as "ready-to-use, human urine based liquid controls." This indicates it's a reagent or material used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze a human specimen (urine).
  • Predicate Device: The mention of a predicate device (K932113; 4 Cannabinoid Urine Controls, Diagnostic Reagents, Inc. (DRI)) which is also a control material for cannabinoid testing, further supports its classification as an IVD. Predicate devices are typically other legally marketed IVDs.
  • Intended User / Care Setting: The intended user is the "clinical laboratory," which is where IVD testing is performed.

While the device itself isn't performing the diagnostic test, it is a critical component of the overall in vitro diagnostic process for THC testing. It ensures the accuracy of the results obtained from the diagnostic reagent and analyzer.

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

The data in the Premarket Notification on safety and effectiveness supports a finding of substantial equivalence to a control test system already in commercial distribution. Equivalence is demonstrated through stability and imprecision studies that relate results obtained from the SYNCHRON® Systems 10 ng/mL and 40 ng/mL THC Urine Controls to the DRI Cannabinoid Urine Controls.

(a)
Identification. A clinical toxicology control material is a device intended to provide an estimation of the precision of a device test system and to detect and monitor systematic deviations from accuracy resulting from reagent or instrument defects. This generic type of device includes various single, and multi-analyte control materials.(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls). 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.
