Intended Use

The TheraTest EL-B2GP1 (IgM, IgG, IgA) is an in vitro diagnostic tests for the measurement of IgM, IgG and IgA vito and homan serum directed against the serum glycoprotein Beta 2 Glycoprotein 1 (82GP1) . This measurement aids in the diagnosis of antiphospholipid antibody syndrome (APS) or certain autoimmune thrombotic disorders such as those secondary to systemic lupus erythematosus.

Device Description

Not Found

AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but the provided text does not contain the acceptance criteria or a study that proves the device meets any specific criteria. The document is a 510(k) clearance letter from the FDA for the TheraTest EL-B2GP1 (IgM, IgG, IgA) device, indicating that it has been deemed "substantially equivalent" to a legally marketed predicate device.

The letter explicitly states:

  • "We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976..."

This means the FDA reviewed the premarket notification based on substantial equivalence, not on the basis of new clinical study acceptance criteria or performance metrics directly demonstrating independent efficacy or accuracy as would be presented in a clinical trial report.

Therefore, I cannot provide a table of acceptance criteria, reported device performance, information on sample sizes, expert qualifications, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance, ground truth types, or training set details from the provided text.

Dear Dr. Teodorescu:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval) , it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the current Good Manufacturing Practice requirement, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic (QS) inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you miqht have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal Laws or Regulations.

Under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA-88), this device may require a CLIA complexity categorization. To determine if it does, you should contact the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) at (770)488-7655.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling requlation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588.
