Intended Use

The STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA is intended for use in the qualitative determination of opiates in oral fluid collected with the OraSure® Oral Collection Device. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

Device Description

The STC Opiates EIA is a competitive micro-plate immunoassay for the detection of opiates in oral fluid collected with the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device. Specimen or standard is added to an EIA well in combination with an enzyme-labeled hapten derivative. In an EIA well containing an OraSure® specimen positive for opiates, there is a competition between the drug and the enzyme-labeled hapten to bind the antibody fixed onto the EIA well. EIA wells are then washed, substrate is added, and color is produced. The absorbance measured for each well at 450 nm is inversely proportional to the amount of opiates present in the specimen or calibrator/control.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study detailed in the provided document for the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA (OraSure® Application):

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state pre-defined acceptance criteria in a quantitative manner for specific performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), or negative predictive value (NPV) that the device must meet. However, it presents the results of its performance metrics in comparison to the predicate device and GC/MS.

Since explicit acceptance criteria are not provided for the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA (OraSure® Application) itself, I will infer the performance reported from the studies presented.

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

  • Analytical Sensitivity/Limit of Detection (LOD):
    • Test set sample size: 12 blank OraSure® devices.
    • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but implied to be from laboratory testing as part of device development.
  • Precision:
    • Test set sample size: For intra-assay, 16 replicates per level for 4 runs (total 64 measurements per level). For inter-assay, 2 samples per level, twice per day for 20 days (total 80 measurements per level). Levels tested were 0, 5, 10, 20 ng/mL morphine in OraSure® Control Matrix.
    • Data Provenance: Laboratory testing.
  • Analytical Specificity/Cross-Reactivity:
    • Test set sample size: Not explicitly stated as a single number, but involves testing various compounds at specified concentrations. Some compounds were tested at a target concentration of 10,000 ng/mL in OraSure® Control Matrix.
    • Data Provenance: Laboratory testing.
  • Clinical Data - Accuracy (Study 1 - Chronic Opiates Users):
    • Test set sample size: 60 samples (10 from self-reported opiate users, 50 presumed negative). Matched urine and OraSure® specimens were collected.
    • Data Provenance: Clinical samples from self-reported opiate users. The country of origin is not specified, but given the submission is to the FDA, it is likely the US or similar regulatory environment. The data collection appears to be prospective for the purpose of the study.
  • Clinical Data - Controlled Dose Study (Study 2):
    • Test set sample size: 5 volunteers. Saliva and urine samples were collected periodically for up to 74 hours after dosing. This generated multiple samples per volunteer.
    • Data Provenance: Prospective, controlled clinical study. The country of origin is not specified.

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

  • For Study 1 (Chronic Opiates Users): The ground truth was established by Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). GC/MS is considered a "gold standard" analytical method and itself requires skilled operators and validation rather than "experts" in the clinical sense (e.g., radiologists). No specific number or qualifications of experts involved in interpreting the GC/MS results or clinical assessment for "self-reported opiates users" are mentioned.
  • For Study 2 (Controlled Dose Study): The ground truth was based on controlled administration of heroin and subsequent analysis by GC/MS. Similar to Study 1, GC/MS acts as the reference method. No specific number or qualifications of clinical experts involved in determining the "ground truth" are stated.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • The document describes the comparison of the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA with GC/MS (Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry) as the reference method (ground truth). This is a direct comparison rather than an adjudication process involving multiple human readers interpreting the same data. Therefore, no adjudication method (like 2+1 or 3+1) was used for the primary comparison.

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) assay, not an imaging device or AI algorithm intended to assist human readers in interpretation. The studies focus on the analytical and clinical performance of the assay itself.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only) Performance Study

  • Yes, the performance studies described are inherently "standalone" in the context of this device. The STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA is a laboratory-based immunoassay, and its performance (sensitivity, specificity, precision, LOD, cross-reactivity) is measured directly against a reference method (GC/MS) or established analytical standards. There is no human-in-the-loop component for the interpretation of the assay's results; the assay provides a quantitative/qualitative result directly.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Analytical studies (LOD, Precision, Cross-Reactivity): The ground truth was established through preparation of known concentrations of substances (e.g., morphine, other compounds) in control matrices, or by using a highly accurate analytical method like GC/MS to confirm concentrations.
  • Clinical Studies (Study 1 & 2): The primary ground truth for clinical accuracy (sensitivity and specificity) was Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS), which is considered the gold standard for drug confirmation. In Study 1, "self-reported opiates users" served as an initial categorization, but GC/MS was used for confirmation. In Study 2, controlled drug administration provided the definitive ground truth for exposure, with GC/MS used to confirm presence and concentration.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

  • The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI algorithms, as this is an immunoassay device. The term "training set" is not generally applicable here. If one were to interpret "training" as the development and optimization of the assay itself, that process is not detailed with specific sample sizes. The document presents the validation studies (analytical and clinical) of the developed assay.

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

  • As mentioned in point 8, the concept of a "training set" and its associated ground truth establishment is not directly applicable to this immunoassay device. The assay's parameters (e.g., antibody characteristics, enzyme conjugation, substrate reaction) would have been developed and optimized based on standard immunoassay development practices, likely involving numerous experiments with known concentrations of analytes, but these are part of the development phase, not typically referred to as a "training set" in this context.

  • Description of Device: 4.

Principle of the Assay

The STC Opiates EIA is a competitive micro-plate immunoassay for the detection of opiates in oral fluid collected with the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device. Specimen or standard is added to an EIA well in combination with an enzyme-labeled hapten derivative. In an EIA well containing an OraSure® specimen positive for opiates, there is a competition between the drug and the enzyme-labeled hapten to bind the antibody fixed onto the EIA well. EIA wells are then washed, substrate is added, and color is produced. The absorbance measured for each well at 450 nm is inversely proportional to the amount of opiates present in the specimen or calibrator/control, Because currently there are no SAMHSA assigned cutoffs for opiates testing using oral fluid, STC recommends a cutoff of 10 ng/mL when testing oral fluid collected with the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device. This cutoff is within the limit of detection by the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA.

Principle of the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device

Saliva is a complex mixture of parotid, submandibular, sublingual and minor salivary gland secretions mixed with mucin, bacteria, leukocytes, sloughed epithelial cells and gingival crevicular fluid. The fact that opiates are present in oral fluid following human use is well documented. (2)

OraSure was developed for the purpose of collecting oral fluid for diagnostic testing. The collection device consists of a treated absorbent cotton fiber pad affixed to a nylon stick (Collection Pad) and a preservative solution in a plastic container (Specimen Vial). The Collection Pad is impregnated with a mixture of common salts and gelatin which creates a hypertonic environment and an increased osmotic pressure wherever it contacts oral mucosal cells. The pad is placed in contact with the gingival mucosa (between the lower gum and cheek) which enhances the flow of mucosal transudate across the mucosal surfaces onto the absorptive cotton fibers of the pad. Following the collection period, the Collection Pad is placed into a vial containing a preservative solution which serves to inhibit the growth of oral micro-organisms recovered on the Collection Pad. The vial is sealed with a plastic cap and transported to a laboratory for processing and testing. Following processing, a fluid containing a mixture of saliva components and the preservative solution is recovered which is suitable for testing for the presence of opiates in the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA manufactured by STC Technologies, Bethlehem, PA. Refer to the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device product insert from Epitope for specific instructions on the proper collection, handling, and adequacy of saliva samples

  • Summary of Technological Characteristics 6.
    The STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA is based on the principle of solid phase competitive enzyme immunoassay . This application is for the modified use of the STC Opiates ELA urine kit for the detection of opiates using specimens collected with the OraSure® Oral Specimen Collection Device manufactured by Epitope, Inc., Beaverton, Oregon. The kit is essentially the same as the predicate urine kit. However, additional standards (supplied with the kit) have been prepared from the OraSure® Specimen Diluent in the OraSure® Collection Device.

807.92 (b):

  • Non Clinical Data 1.
    Analytical Sensitivity/Limit Of Detection - The Limit of Detection (LOD) was defined from the signal-to-noise ratio at the zero-drug concentration as the mean zero absorbance (Ao) minus the noise times three (LOD = Ao - 3SD). The LOD was determined by obtaining the absorbance value for twelve blank OraSure® devices and calculating the standard deviation (SD) of the absorbance values. The absorbance value minus 3SD was then extrapolated from the curve and represents the sensitivity of the assay. The LOD was calculated to be 0.2 ng/mL.

Precision - The precision of the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA was assessed by testing OraSure® Control Matrix containing 0, 5, 10, or 20 ng/mL morphine. The intra-assay precision was determined by analyzing each level 16 times per run for 4 runs. Inter-assay precision was determined by analyzing 2 samples at each level twice per day for 20 days. The results of this testing are described in the following table:

Analytical Specificity/Cross-Reactivity - The analytical specificity of an immunoassay is defined as the cross-reactivity of substances in the assay which are structurally related to the target compound. The percent cross-reactivity of a compound in the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA is defined as the apparent morphine concentration divided by the spiked concentration times 100.

The cross-reactivity of structurally related compounds was calculated at several spiked concentrations in normal human urine. The following table indicates the apparent concentration of morphine for each substance at a concentration which cross-reacted in the assay.

2. Clinical Data

Accuracy

The clinical sensitivity and specificity of the STC Micro-Plate assay were determined by testing specimens from chronic opiate users. A controlled dose study was also conducted to determine a minimum dose to produce a positive response in the STC EIA. Both studies are described below. The cutoffs for EIA and GC/MS were 10 ng/mL and 15 ng/mL, respectively, for OraSure® specimens. For urine specimens, the EIA cutoff was 300 ng/mL and the GC/MS cutoff was 150 ng/mL (based on SAMHSA recommendations).

Study 1 - Chronic Opiates Users

Matched urine and OraSure® specimens were collected from ten (10) self-reported opiates users. An additional fifty (50) presumed negative samples were also included in the analysis. All sixty (60) samples were tested in the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA and presumed positives (10) were also tested by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Results are presented in the following tables:

** Of the 10 samples presumed positive, the % sensitivity and % specificity of the urine STC EIA as compared to GC/MS were 87.5% and 100.0% respectively.

It is believed that the poor agreement between the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA (OraSure® application) and the STC Opiates Micro-Plate EIA (urine) is driven by differences in the metabolism of heroin and partitioning in oral and urine. Opiates generally appear later in urine and persist for up to 3-6 days. " Conversely, opiates in saliva is not detectable after 2-8 hours. 10 These differences do not diminish the clinical utility of either fluid. However, users should be aware of these differences.

Study 2 - Controlled Dose Study

A total of 5 volunteers in a controlled environment were administered an initial 3 mg of intravenous heroin HCl, followed by a second 6 mg or 12 mg heroin dose 4 to 12 days later. Saliva and urine samples were collected before dosing and periodically for up to 74 hours after dosing. Saliva specimens (400 uL) were added to the collection pad of the OraSure Oral Fluid Collection Device and processed according to the package insert. Samples were then tested using the STC assay and GC/MS.

Using a 10 ng/mL cutoff for OraSure® samples, opiates were detectable by EIA for up to 2 hours after a 12 mg heroin dose and not detectable at any time for a 3 or 6 mg dose. Of the GC/MS saliva results, only the initial post-12 mg dose samples contained drug concentrations above the 15 ng/mL LOD/LOQ. This demonstrates the ability of the STC

GC/MS saliva results, only the initial post-12 mg dose samples contained drug concentrations above the 15 ng/mL LOD/LOQ. This demonstrates the ability of the STC EIA to detect opiate concentrations at intravenous doses as low as 12 mg heroin HCl. The ability of the kit to detect opiates at doses between 6 mg-12 mg is unknown.

§ 862.3650 Opiate test system.

(a)
Identification. An opiate test system is a device intended to measure any of the addictive narcotic pain-relieving opiate drugs in blood, serum, urine, gastric contents, and saliva. An opiate is any natural or synthetic drug that has morphine-like pharmocological actions. The opiates include drugs such as morphine, morphine glucoronide, heroin, codeine, nalorphine, and meperedine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of opiate use or overdose and in monitoring the levels of opiate administration to ensure appropriate therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). An opiate test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. 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, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (e.g., programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
