AI/ML Overview

I am sorry, but based on the provided document, the information you are requesting about acceptance criteria and a study proving a device meets these criteria is not present. The document is an FDA 510(k) clearance letter for a device called "C4 Minineph Antiserum." It confirms the device's substantial equivalence to a predicate device and its regulatory classification, but it does not detail:

  • Specific acceptance criteria for performance metrics.
  • A study proving the device meets acceptance criteria.
  • Sample sizes for test or training sets.
  • Data provenance, expert qualifications, or adjudication methods.
  • Results of MRMC comparative effectiveness or standalone studies.
  • How ground truth was established for training or test sets.

The document primarily states the device's "Indications for Use" which is for "in vitro measurement of human C4 in serum using the MININEPH analyzer as an aid in the diagnosis of abnormal C4 metabolism."

Dear Mr. Geller:

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 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 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.

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 regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4588. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device. please contact the Office of Compliance at (301) 594-4639. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification"(21 CFR 807.97).

§ 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).
