The Bayer Immuno 1™ Her-2/neu Assay is an in vitro, diagnostic device intended for use in the quantitative determination of HER-2/neu in human serum. HER-2/neu values obtained may be used in the follow-up and monitoring of patients with metastatic breast cancer. HER-2/neu values should be used in conjunction with information available from clinical and other diagnostic procedures in the management of breast cancer. The clinical utility of the serum measurement of HER-2/neu as a prognostic indicator for early detection of recurrence and in the management of patients on immunotherapy regimens has not been fully established.
The Bayer Immuno I™ HER-2/neu Assay utilizes a well-established immunoassay technology in which one monoclonal HER-2/neu antibody (NB-3) is conjugated to fluorescein (designated Reagent 1, or R1) and the Fab' fragment of another monoclonal HER-2/neu antibody (TA-1) is conjugated to alkaline phosphatase (Reagent 2, or R2). The R1 and R2 conjugates are reacted with patient sample, calibrator, or control and are incubated at 37℃ on the system. Immuno 1 Magnetic Particles coated with an antifluorescein antibody (mIMP™ Reagent) are then added and a second incubation occurs during which the antibody complex is bound. The magnetic particles complexed with the immunological sandwich are then washed to separate unbound molecules, and a colorimetric substrate is added. The rate of conversion of substrate to a compound with absorbance at 405 and 450 nm is measured is proportional to the concentration of HER-2/neu in the sample. A cubic-through-zero curve-fitting algorithm is used to generate standard curves.
The assay has a range of zero to 250 ng/mL. The Bayer SETpoint™ HER-2/neu Calibrators consist of a set of six calibrator levels at 0, 10, 25, 60, 125, and 250 ng/mL. The Bayer TESTpoint™ HER-2/neu Controls consist of a set of three control levels at approximately 15, 50 and 100 ng/mL.
The provided document describes the Bayer Immuno 1™ HER-2/neu Assay, an in vitro diagnostic device for the quantitative determination of HER-2/neu in human serum for monitoring metastatic breast cancer patients.
Here's an analysis of the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets them, based on the provided text:
Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Specificity: Interference | No significant interfering effects on HER-2/neu recovery were demonstrated from various potential endogenous (triglycerides, hemoglobin, immunoglobulin, bilirubin, albumin, cholesterol) or exogenous (chemotherapeutic drugs, OTC drugs, vitamins, HERCEPTIN®) interferents. |
| Cross-Reactivity | Maximum effect seen with Human Epidermal Growth Factor as a cross-reactant was not significant ( |
§ 866.6010 Tumor-associated antigen immunological test system.
(a)
Identification. A tumor-associated antigen immunological test system is a device that consists of reagents used to qualitatively or quantitatively measure, by immunochemical techniques, tumor-associated antigens in serum, plasma, urine, or other body fluids. This device is intended as an aid in monitoring patients for disease progress or response to therapy or for the detection of recurrent or residual disease.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). Tumor markers must comply with the following special controls: (1) A guidance document entitled “Guidance Document for the Submission of Tumor Associated Antigen Premarket Notifications (510(k)s) to FDA,” and (2) voluntary assay performance standards issued by the National Committee on Clinical Laboratory Standards.
