No
The description focuses on a standard immunoassay (ELISA) for quantitative determination of Calcitonin, with no mention of AI, ML, or related concepts. The performance study compares the device to a predicate using correlation, which is typical for quantitative assays and does not indicate AI/ML.

No
This device is for the quantitative determination of Calcitonin in human serum, used in the diagnosis and treatment (monitoring) of diseases, not for direct therapeutic intervention.

Yes

Explanation: The "Intended Use / Indications for Use" section explicitly states that "Calcitonin measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases involving the thyroid and parathyroid glands." This indicates that the device aids in the diagnosis of medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly indicates it is an immunoassay based on ELISA principles, which is a laboratory-based wet chemistry method requiring physical reagents and equipment, not solely software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "quantitative determination of Calcitonin in human serum." This involves testing a sample taken from the human body (serum) in vitro (outside the body) to provide information for diagnosis and treatment.
  • Device Description: The description details an "immunoassay based on the principles of the two site 'sandwich' Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA)." ELISA is a common technique used in IVD devices to detect and quantify substances in biological samples.
  • Sample Type: The device analyzes "human serum," which is a biological sample.
  • Purpose: The results are used "in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases involving the thyroid and parathyroid glands." This directly aligns with the purpose of IVD devices, which is to provide information for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.

The information provided clearly indicates that this device is designed to perform a test on a biological sample outside of the body to aid in medical decision-making, which is the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies

Based on the study on seventy-seven (77) patient sera analyzed using both the proposed device and the predicate device, a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.99 was obtained with a slope of 0.940 and an intercept of 6.6. The samples studied ranged from 0.8 to 3,113 pg/mL of Calcitonin in the Scantibodies' kit. The data clearly demonstrates excellent correlation between the two devices.

510 (k) SUMMARY

Name of Contact Person: John J. Kiang

Name of Proposed Device: Sangui BioTech, Inc. Calcitonin ELISA

Common name of the device: in vitro Diagnostic Kit

Classification name: Radioimmunoassay, Calcitonin

Name of Predicate Device: Scantibodies Calcitonin Assay Immunoradiometric (IRMA) Assay (Coated Bead Technology) Part Number: 3KG552, to which this firm claims substantial equivalency.

Description of the proposed device: Quantitative determination of Calcitonin in human serum. This immunoassay is based on the principles of the two site "sandwich" Enzyme-Linked ImmunoSorbent Assay (ELISA).

Intended Use of the proposed device: The intended use of this product is the quantitative determination of Calcitonin in human serum.

Technological characteristics: Similarities:

  • the intended use ට
  • Both kits are based on immunometric (sandwich) assay principles.
  • Analytical sensitivity. 0
  • Standard range for the Sangui kit and the predicate device (Scantibodies) 0

Technological characteristics: Differences:

  • Sample size
  • Incubation or reaction time for the immunoassay.
  • Tag antibody: enzyme label monoclonal antibody vs. radiolabeled purified polyclonal antibody. Capture antibody: biotinylated monoclonal antibody vs. direct purified polyclonal antibody coated beads.
  • മ Solid Phase.

Based on the study on seventy-seven (77) patient sera analyzed using both the proposed device and the predicate device, a correlation coefficient (R) of 0.99 was obtained with a slope of 0.940 and an intercept of 6.6. The samples studied ranged from 0.8 to 3,113 pg/mL of Calcitonin in the Scantibodies' kit. The data clearly demonstrates excellent correlation between the two devices. Further, another predicate device, the Nichols Institute Diagnostics Calcitonin Chemiluminescence Assay, currently manufactured by Nichols Institute Diagnostic, a Division of Quest Diagnostics, Inc., , San Juan Capistrano, CA.92675, uses the same antibodies (monoclonal) and the same epitopes, as this proposed device.
