More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a standard indirect fluorescent antibody test and does not mention any AI or ML components.

No
This is an in vitro diagnostic device used for the detection of antibodies, which aids in diagnosis rather than treating or preventing a disease.

Yes

The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" states that this test system is "for in vitro diagnostic use for the detection of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in human serum" and "to be used as an aid in the detection of antibodies associated with autoimmune vasculitis." This directly indicates its purpose as a diagnostic tool.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "indirect fluorescent antibody test," which is a laboratory assay involving physical reagents and procedures, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use/Indications for Use: Explicitly states "This test system is for in vitro diagnostic use". It also describes the purpose of the test as detecting antibodies in human serum to aid in the detection of conditions like autoimmune vasculitis, which are diagnostic purposes.
  • Device Description: Describes a "test system" for the "semi-quantitative detection of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in human serum," which is a typical description of an in vitro diagnostic test.
  • Intended User/Care Setting: States "in vitro diagnostic use," reinforcing its intended application in a laboratory or clinical setting for diagnostic purposes.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to be used outside of the body (in vitro) to analyze a human sample (serum) for diagnostic purposes.

§ 866.5660 Multiple autoantibodies immunological test system.

(a)
Identification. A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).(b)
Classification. Class II (performance standards).

Description:

This is an indirect fluorescent antibody test for the semi-quantitative detection of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in human serum

Intended Use:

This test system is for in vitro diagnostic use for the detection of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in human serum. This test system is to be used as an aid in the detection of antibodies associated with autoimmune vasculitis, Wegener's granulomatosis, microscopic polyarteritis, and idiopathic crescentic glomerulonephritis.

Summary of Technological Characteristics Compared to the Predicate Device:

Both the predicate device and this device are fluorescent antibody tests for the detection of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody in human serum.

Description of Laboratory Data That Indicate Substantial Equivalence: Serum Samples Obtained from Normal Blood Donors

Serum samples from 497 blood donors (247 males and 250 females) were tested using the subject device and the predicate device. The results of this comparison are shown in the following Table:

The large number of ANCA positive samples in these otherwise normal individuals was troubling, so we tested all positive sera for antibodies (ANA) using Immuno Concepts HEp-2 ANA Test System, and for antibodies to MPO and PR3 using ELISA kits obtained from elias usa, inc. Twenty-two samples were found to have antinuclear antibodies and were considered uninterpretable for ANCA. Excluding these samples, we obtained the following data for the normal blood donor samples:

Among the remaining discrepant samples, only one was found to be positive for MPO and PR3 antibodies. This sample and the samples that were IFA positive on both the predicate device and the antibodies. This sample and the samplos that were in A positive of the IFA kits. The remaining samples in the l subject define were considered that positive assays. Thus, when the referee method is taken into account, the comparisons look like this:

Serum Samples Previously Determined to be Positive for ANCA by Indirect Immunofluorescence

Serum samples which had been judged to be positive for ANCA using in-house IFA assays were obtained from reference laboratories in the USA, the United Kingdom, and Australia. A total of 383 sera, which we expected to be positive for ANCA, were examined in this part of the study. These samples were tested on the predicate device and the subject device with the following results:
