Intended Use
The Redi-Test THC is designed for the qualitative determination of cannabinoids (THC) and its metabolites in human urine specimens. The presence of 11nor-Δ°-ΤΗC-9-COOH in human urine as low as 50 ng/ml can be detected. This test is for use in clinical laboratories by health care professionals and forensic professionals only. The Redi-Test THC is a rapid immunochromatographic competitive assay used to screen human urine for the presence of cannabinoids at a cutoff concentration of 50ng/mL. The test is qualitative and provides only a preliminary analytical result which must be confirmed by an alternate methodology preferably GC/MS.
Device Description
The Redi-Test THC is an immunochromatograpic based one step in vitro test.

No
The device description and performance studies indicate a standard immunochromatographic assay, with no mention of AI or ML technologies.

No.
The device is for qualitative determination of cannabinoids and its metabolites in human urine. It is a diagnostic test, not a therapeutic device.

Yes

Explanation: The device is described as being for "qualitative determination of cannabinoids (THC) and its metabolites in human urine specimens" and providing a "preliminary analytical result," which are characteristics of a diagnostic test to identify the presence of a specific substance in the body.

No

The device description explicitly states it is an "immunochromatographic based one step in vitro test," which is a physical test kit, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use explicitly states "qualitative determination of cannabinoids (THC) and its metabolites in human urine specimens." This is a classic description of an in vitro diagnostic test, as it analyzes a biological sample (urine) outside of the body to diagnose or screen for a condition (presence of THC).
  • Device Description: The device description states "The Redi-Test THC is an immunochromatograpic based one step in vitro test." The term "in vitro test" directly indicates it is an IVD.
  • Sample Type: The test uses "human urine specimens," which are biological samples analyzed in vitro.
  • Purpose: The purpose is to "screen human urine for the presence of cannabinoids," which is a diagnostic or screening function performed on a biological sample.

All of these points align with the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

The tests demonstrated 99% correlation when 100 specimens (50 positive and 50 negative) were compared. The tests are similar in sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and precision.

Key Metrics (Sensitivity, Specificity, PPV, NPV, etc.)

The sensitivity of the tests are similar, the DRI test detects 11-Hydroxy-μ-THC at a cut off of 20ng/mL and the Redi-Test detects this metabolite at a cut off of 50ng/mL.

§ 862.3870 Cannabinoid test system.

(a)
Identification. A cannabinoid test system is a device intended to measure any of the cannabinoids, hallucinogenic compounds endogenous to marihuana, in serum, plasma, saliva, and urine. Cannabinoid compounds includedelta -9-tetrahydrocannabinol, cannabidiol, cannabinol, and cannabichromene. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of cannabinoid use or abuse and in monitoring levels of cannabinoids during clinical investigational use.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A cannabinoid 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).

Redi-Test THC 3. Device Name:

  1. Device Classification: Class II. 862.3650, Panel 91 Toxicology

  2. Device description: The Redi-Test THC is an immunochromatograpic based one step in vitro test.

  3. Intended Use: The Redi-Test is designed for the qualitative determination of cannabinoids (THC) and its metabolites in human urine specimens. The presence of 11nor-Δ°-ΤΗC-9-COOH in human urine as low as 50 ng/ml can be detected. This test is for use in clinical laboratories by health care professionals and forensic professionals only.

  4. Substantial Equivalence: The Redi-Test was found substantially equivalent to the DRI. Cannabinoids Enzyme Immunoassav. Both products are immunoassays and use specific antibodies to detect the major metabolite of cannabinoids. Both assays are preliminary screens for human urine and require confirmation with altemate methods such as GC/MS. The sensitivity of the tests are similar, the DRI test detects 11-Hydroxy-മീ-THC at a cut off of 20ng/mL and the Redi-Test detects this metabolite at a cut off of 50ng/mL. GC/MS confirmed that both tests identified samples below 24.7ng/mL negative and above 31ng/mL positive.

The tests demonstrated 99% correlation when 100 specimens (50 positive and 50 negative) were compared. The tests are similar in sensitivity, specificity, accuracy and precision.

Conclusion:

The Cannabinoid Enzyme Immunoassay and the Redi-Test THC are substantially equivalent in performance characteristics. The correlation of the two tests was 99%.
