The Digene HCII CT-ID Test is an in-vitro nucleic acid hybridization assay with signal amplification using microplate chemiluminescence for the qualitative detection of C trachomatis DNA in cervical specimens collected using the Digene Cervical Sampler™ (Cervical Brush and Speciment Transport Medium) and in cervical specimens collected using the Digene Swab Specimen Collection Kit (Dacron Swab and Speciment Transport Medium). The Digene HCII CT-ID Test is indicated for use with symptomatic or asymptomatic women as evidence of infection with C. trachomatis.

The HCII CT-ID Test may be used alone or as a supplemental test to the Digene HCII CT/GC Test to detect C. trachomatis DNA in specimens found positive by the Digene HCII CT/GC Test.

Device Description

The Digene HCII CT-ID Test is a nucleic acid, signal enhanced, hybridization, microplate assay using chemiluminescence for the qualitative detection of C. trachomatis (CT) DNA in cervical specimens collected using the Digene Cervical Sampler™ and in cervical specimens collected with a Dacron swab and placed in Digene Specimen Transport Medium. The Digene HCII CT-ID Test is indicated for use as an aid in diagnosing infection with C. trachomatis in symptomatic or asymptomatic women. The HCII CT-ID Test may be used as a stand-alone test or may be used as a supplemental test to the Digene HCII CT/GC Test for identification of C. trachomatis in specimens that are positive by the HCII CT/GC Test.

Specimens potentially containing CT DNA are denatured and then hybridized with a specific RNA probe cocktail. This cocktail contains a probe mixture chosen to minimize or eliminate cross-reactivity with DNA sequences from human cells, other bacterial species, Chlamydia species other than trachomatis, or sequences from other organisms common in urogenital specimens. The CT probe cocktail supplied with the Digene CT-ID Assay is complementary to approximately 39,300 base pairs or 4% of the C. trachomatis genome (1 x 10 base pairs) and 100% of the cryptic plasmid.

The RNA:DNA hybrids resulting from hybridization are immobilized (captured) on the surface of a microplate-well, which has been coated with antibodies specific for RNA:DNA hybrids. The antibodies on the well surface capture the RNA:DNA hybrids. The immobilized hybrids are then reacted with alkaline phosphatase-conjugated antibody and a chemiluminescent substrate. As the substrate is cleaved by the bound alkaline phosphatase, photons are emitted and measured as Relative Light Units (RLUs) using a standard, FDA-cleared luminometer such as the DML 2000™ - Increased photon emission, resulting in an enhanced signal, is achieved by conjugating multiple alkaline phosphatase molecules to each antibody molecule. Multiple antibodies bind to each RNA:DNA hybrid, further enhancing the signal.

The HCII CT-ID Test provides an RLU measurement that is qualitatively interpreted. The Positive Cutoff Value is equal to the mean of three Positive Control values. Each specimen RLU measurement is converted to a ratio of the Positive Cutoff Value. This conversion calculation is performed automatically by the Digene DML™ 2000 Microplate Luminometer software. Alternatively, the conversion may be calculated manually, Specimens with RLU/Cutoff values of < 0.8 are considered negative for CT DNA. Specimens with RLU/Cutoff values >5.0 are considered positive for CT DNA. Specimens with RLU/Cutoff values between 0.8 ≥ 5.0 are considered to be equivocal and are repeat tested in duplicate. With the repeat tests, a RLU/Cutoff Value of 1.0 is applied. If two of the three replicates fall above 1.0, the presence of C. trachomatis DNA is indicated. If at least two of the three replicates fall below 1.0, the presence of C. trachomatis DNA is not indicated.

AI/ML Overview

Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and study findings for the Digene HCII CT-ID Test, based on the provided text:

The document combines a 510(k) summary with results from a clinical study comparing the Digene HCII CT-ID Test to a "gold standard" (cell culture with DFA confirmation).

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The document does not explicitly state pre-defined acceptance criteria for sensitivity, specificity, NPV, or PPV. However, it presents the results of a multicenter study comparing the Digene HCII CT-ID Test against the gold standard (Cell Culture/DFA). We can infer the expected performance levels from the 'All' sites aggregated results.

Inferred Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance (Aggregated "All" Sites):

| Performance Metric | Implied Acceptance Criteria (e.g., from Predicate or clinical utility) | Reported Device Performance (All Sites Combined) |
| :----------------- | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Sensitivity | High sensitivity is crucial for infectious disease diagnostics to minimize false negatives. The predicate device (Gen-Probe Pace 2 System) would have established a benchmark. | 97.25% (95% CI: 92.2-99.4) for "HCII CT-ID Test versus CT Culture/DF/" cohort 100.00% (95% CI: 84.6-100) for "CT/GC Positive/Culture Negative" cohort 84.00% (95% CI: 63.9-95.5) for "Mixed Symptomatic/Asymptomatic" cohort 100.00% (95% CI: 29.2-100) for "Asymptomatic Patients, Dacron Swab Only" cohort |
| Specificity | High specificity is important to minimize false positives and unnecessary treatments. The predicate device would have established a benchmark. | 98.07% (95% CI: 96.9-98.9) for "HCII CT-ID Test versus CT Culture/DF/" cohort 98.29% (95% CI: 96.5-99.3) for "CT/GC Positive/Culture Negative" cohort 97.88% (95% CI: 95.1-99.3) for "Mixed Symptomatic/Asymptomatic" cohort 99.47% (95% CI: 97.1-100) for "Asymptomatic Patients, Dacron Swab Only" cohort |
| NPV (Negative Predictive Value) | High NPV is critical to confidently rule out infection. | 99.63% (95% CI: 98.9-99.9) for "HCII CT-ID Test versus CT Culture/DF/" cohort 100% (95% CI: 99.1-100) for "CT/GC Positive/Culture Negative" cohort 98.30% (95% CI: 95.7-99.5) for "Mixed Symptomatic/Asymptomatic" cohort 100.00% (95% CI: 98.0-100) for "Asymptomatic Patients, Dacron Swab Only" cohort |
| PPV (Positive Predictive Value) | High PPV indicates that a positive result is likely a true positive. | 86.89% (95% CI: 79.6-92.3) for "HCII CT-ID Test versus CT Culture/DF/" cohort 75.86% (95% CI: 56.5-89.7) for "CT/GC Positive/Culture Negative" cohort 80.77% (95% CI: 60.7-93.5) for "Mixed Symptomatic/Asymptomatic" cohort 75.00% (95% CI: 19.4-99.4) for "Asymptomatic Patients, Dacron Swab Only" cohort |

The statement, "A multicenter study has demonstrated that the Digene HCII CT-ID Test performs as well or better than the gold standard, cell culture, in detecting infection with C. trachomatis in the intended population," suggests that the reported performance meets or exceeds the expected standards for a diagnostic device for C. trachomatis.

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

Sample Size for the Test Set:
- Total (HCII CT-ID Test vs. CT Culture/DFA): 940 specimens (aggregated from UAB: 351, JHU: 192, SUNY: 220, UCSF: 177).
- Total (CT/GC Positive/Culture Negative): 431 specimens (aggregated from UAB: 101, JHU: 12, SUNY: 81, UCSF: 236, SJH: 1).
- Total (Mixed Symptomatic/Asymptomatic): 261 specimens (aggregated from UAB: 7, JHU: 94, SUNY: 8, SJH: 152).
- Total (Asymptomatic Patients, Dacron Swab Only): 190 specimens (aggregated from UAB: 1, JHU: 10, SUNY: 2, UCSF: 1, SJH: 176).
Data Provenance: The study was a "multicenter study," indicating data collected from multiple clinical sites (UAB, JHU, SUNY, UCSF, SJH). The specific country of origin is not explicitly stated, but the institution names (e.g., UAB, JHU, SUNY, UCSF) strongly suggest United States. The study appears to be prospective or a collection of clinical samples, as it evaluates the diagnostic performance of the new test against a reference method on specimens. The text does not explicitly state "retrospective" or "prospective" but the context of a new device validation implies prospective data collection for clinical performance.

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

The document does not explicitly state the number or specific qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth. However, the ground truth method relies on:

Cell Culture: This is a laboratory-based method.
DFA (Direct Fluorescent Antibody): This is a microscopy-based method that typically involves trained microbiologists or laboratory personnel to interpret results.
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): Used for "discordant analysis" or further testing in specific cases. PCR also requires skilled laboratory personnel.

While "experts" in the sense of physicians or radiologists making clinical diagnoses are not explicitly mentioned for establishing the ground truth, the "gold standard" methods (cell culture and DFA) implicitly rely on highly trained and qualified laboratory professionals to perform and interpret the tests accurately.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The document does not describe a formal "adjudication method" in the sense of multiple human readers independently reviewing cases and then coming to a consensus (e.g., 2+1 or 3+1).

Instead, the ground truth was established by a composite reference standard: Cell Culture/DFA. For cases where the HCII CT-ID test result was discordant with the Cell Culture/DFA result, PCR was often used for further investigation. For example, the notes mention "CT-ID+/Cul-/DFA- Tested Positive by PCR" with specific counts, indicating that PCR was used to resolve discrepancies and refine the understanding of true positives/negatives in challenging cases. This implies a form of discrepancy resolution rather than a multi-reader adjudication per se.

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

No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study comparing human readers with and without AI assistance was not done. This study is evaluating a standalone diagnostic test (the Digene HCII CT-ID Test), not an AI-assisted interpretation tool for human readers.

6. Standalone Performance Study (Algorithm Only)

Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The entire study described evaluates the performance of the Digene HCII CT-ID Test itself (an in-vitro diagnostic device/assay), without human-in-the-loop interpretation once the assay is run and the RLU values are generated. The interpretation of RLU values into positive/negative/equivocal is based on a defined algorithm and cutoff values. The reported sensitivity, specificity, NPV, and PPV are for the device operating in this standalone manner.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

The primary ground truth used was a composite reference standard consisting of:

Cell Culture: Considered the "gold standard" for Chlamydia trachomatis detection at the time.
DFA (Direct Fluorescent Antibody): Used in conjunction with cell culture, likely as a confirmatory test if cell culture was inconclusive or for direct detection from samples.
PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction): Used for further investigation and discrepancy resolution, particularly for specimens where the HCII CT-ID test gave a positive result but the Cell Culture/DFA was negative (e.g., "CT-ID+/Cul-/DFA- Tested Positive by PCR"). This suggests that PCR served as a higher-level reference in ambiguous cases.

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not specify the sample size for a training set. This is a clinical validation study for a medical device (an in-vitro diagnostic kit). The reported data appears to be from a validation or test set. For such IVD assays, development often involves extensive internal testing and optimization (which could be considered a form of "training" or assay development phase), but this document focuses on the final clinical performance validation.

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

Since a distinct "training set" with established ground truth is not mentioned in the provided text, this question cannot be answered from the available information. The document focuses on the performance of the developed assay against a reference standard in a clinical test set.

The Gen-Probe Pace 2 System for Chlamydia Trachomatis cleared under K920378 on 4/29/92.

Device Description

Specimens potentially containing CT DNA are denatured and then hybridized with a specific RNA probe cocktail. This cocktail contains a probe mixture chosen to minimize or eliminate cross-reactivity with DNA sequences from human cells, other bacterial species, Chlamydia species other than trachomatis, or sequences from other operior misms common in urogenital specimens. The CT probe cocktail supplied with the Digene CT-ID Assay is complementary to approximately 39,300 base pairs or 4% of the C. trachomatis genome (1 x 10 base pairs) and 100% of the cryptic plasmid.

Steps and Reagents to Stabilize the Specimen:

Specimens are collected using the Digene Cervical Sampler or a Dacron Swab and placed in Digene Specimen Transport Medium (STM). The specimens may be held for up to two weeks at room temperature and shipped without refrigeration to the testing laboratory in an insolated container using an overnight or 2-day delivery vendor. At the testing laboratory specimens should be stored at 2-8℃ if the assay is to be performed within one week. If the assay will be performed later than one week, the specimens should be stored at -20°C. A preservative has been added to the STM to retard bacterial growth and retain the integrity of DNA in the specimen. The STM is not intended to preserve the viability of organisms or other cells in the specimen.

Steps to Process the Specimen, Release the DNA, and Denature the Released DNA.

Denaturation reagent is added to the specimens with the collection device remaining in the collection tube. This allows for denaturation of any DNA clinging to the collection device. The volume of denaturation reagent added to the specimen is equivalent to one-half the volume of the specimen. The denaturation reagent is dilute sodium hydroxide. Specimens are then incubated for 45 minutes at 65°C. This step releases the DNA from the organisms contained in the specimen and denatures that DNA so it becomes single-stranded. Following this step, the single-stranded DNA is ready to be hybridized to the RNA probe.

Intended Use

The Digene HCII CT-ID Test, is a nucleic acid, signal enhanced, hybridization, microplate assay for the qualitative detection of C. trachomatis DNA in cervical specimens collected using the Digene Cervical Sampler™, or collected using a Dacron® swab and placed in Digene Specimen Transport Medium. The Digene HCII CT-ID Test is indicated for use as an aid in diagnosing infection with C. trachomatis in symptomatic or asymptomatic females. The HCII CT-ID Test may be used as a stand-alone test or may be used as a supplemental test for identification of C. trachomatis in specimens found positive by the Digene HCII CT/GC Test.

Technological Characteristics and Substantial Equivalence

The Digene HCll CT-ID Test is substantially equivalent to the Gen-Probe Pace 2 System for C. trachomatis in intended use and in technological characteristics. Both tests are nucleic acid hybridization assays intended for the detection of chlamydia trachomatis from endocervical specimens.

A multicenter study has demonstrated that the Digene HCII CT-ID Test performs as well or better than the gold standard, cell culture, in detecting infection with C. trachomatis in the intended population. The results from this multicenter study are summarized below:

Regulation Number and Section

§ 866.3120 Chlamydia serological reagents.

(a)
Identification. Chlamydia serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to chlamydia in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of chlamydia antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye used to identify chlamydia directly from clinical specimens or cultured isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of disease caused by bacteria belonging to the genusChlamydia and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Chlamydia are the causative agents of psittacosis (a form of pneumonia), lymphogranuloma venereum (a venereal disease), and trachoma (a chronic disease of the eye and eyelid).(b)
Classification. Class I (general controls).
