No
The summary describes a qualitative ELISA assay, which is a standard laboratory technique and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No.
The device is described as a qualitative plate ELISA for the detection of human anti-rabbit antibodies, which is a diagnostic purpose, not a therapeutic one. It identifies a biological marker associated with therapeutic interventions, but does not itself provide therapy.

Yes
The device is described as a qualitative plate ELISA for the detection of human anti-rabbit antibodies in human serum, with the presence of these antibodies being associated with patients receiving therapeutic rabbit antibodies. This indicates its use in identifying a clinical condition or state, which is the definition of a diagnostic device.

No

The device is described as a "qualitative plate ELISA," which is a laboratory assay involving physical reagents and equipment, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states that ThymoStat™ is for the "detection of human anti-rabbit antibodies in human serum." This involves testing a biological sample (human serum) in vitro (outside the body) to obtain information about a patient's health status (presence of antibodies).
  • ELISA: The device is described as a "qualitative plate ELISA." ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) is a common laboratory technique used for in vitro diagnostic testing.

The definition of an IVD generally includes devices intended for use in the collection, preparation, and examination of specimens taken from the human body for the purpose of providing information for the diagnosis, treatment, or prevention of disease or for the determination of the state of health. The ThymoStat™ fits this description.

§ 866.5240 Complement components immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A complement components immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques complement components C1q , C1r , C1s , C2 , C3 , C4 , C5 , C6 , C7 , C8 , and C9 , in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. Complement is a group of serum proteins which destroy infectious agents. Measurements of these proteins aids in the diagnosis of immunologic disorders, especially those associated with deficiencies of complement components.(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Dear Dr. Moran:

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 legally marketed predicate 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 requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, 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 might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
