## Indications for Use

The MESACUP Test MPO is a semi-quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of IgG anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO) antibodies in human serum. Clinical (hospital and reference) laboratory personnel are the intended users of the MESACUP Test MPO.

## Device Story

MESACUP Test MPO is an ELISA kit for detecting IgG anti-myeloperoxidase (MPO) antibodies in human serum. Input: patient serum samples. Process: samples incubated in MPO-coated 96-well plates; anti-MPO antibodies bind to antigen; unbound proteins washed away; HRP-labeled anti-human IgG added; TMB/H2O2 chromogenic substrate added. Output: color intensity proportional to anti-MPO concentration, measured via spectrophotometry at 450nm. Used in clinical/reference laboratories by trained personnel. Results aid physicians in diagnosing systemic vasculitides, specifically microscopic polyarteritis and crescentic glomerulonephritis.

## Clinical Evidence

Clinical performance evaluated in 79 patients with suspected systemic vasculitis and 80 healthy donors. Sensitivity: 36.7% of suspected vasculitis patients tested positive. Specificity: 100% in healthy donors (0/80 positive). Cross-reactivity assessed in autoimmune disease subgroups (RA, Sjögren's, SLE, MCTD, Polymyositis/Dermatomyositis). Method comparison against predicate (N=159) yielded 86.67% positive agreement and 97.67% negative agreement.

## Technological Characteristics

Indirect ELISA; microtiter plate solid phase; MPO antigen coating. Conjugate: HRP-goat anti-human IgG. Substrate: TMB/H2O2. Detection: Photometric (450/620 nm). Reportable range: 5-200 U/mL. Assay time: 150 minutes at room temperature. Manual/automated plate processing.

## Regulatory Identification

A multiple autoantibodies immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoantibodies (antibodies produced against the body's own tissues) in serum and other body fluids. Measurement of multiple autoantibodies aids in the diagnosis of autoimmune disorders (disease produced when the body's own tissues are injured by autoantibodies).

# J. Standard/Guidance Document Referenced (if applicable):

Not applicable

# K. Test Principle:

The assay involves enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) technology. Calibrators and patient sera are incubated with MPO antigens for a specified time, and then washed. This step is followed by incubation with horseradish peroxidase conjugated anti-human IgG. The reaction is then washed, stopped, and the color is allowed to develop and measured photometrically.

# L. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):

1. Analytical performance:

a. Precision/Reproducibility:

Three lots of the MESACUP Test MPO were used to determine the intra-assay, inter-assay and inter-lot value precision for the test.

# Intra-assay

Intra-assay precision (% CV) was determined by running 2 serum samples (i.e., low and high positive) using one dilution and 40 replicates on 3 separate assays (3 separate lots). Three separate plates were randomly selected from each plate-coating run (kit-lot). The mean % CV for intra-assay precision for the samples tested on 3 plates from each lot was  $3.6\%$  (Range:  $3.0 - 4.3\%$ ).

# Inter-assay, intra-lot

To determine the amount of variability between plates of the same lot, 2 samples in duplicate were tested on 7 separate assays from the same plate lot for each one of 3 separate plate lots. The mean % CV for inter-assay, intra-lot precision was  $6.7\%$  with a range of  $4.7 - 7.8\%$ .

# Inter-assay, inter-lot

The precision between lots was determined by comparing the values recovered for 2 different samples on 3 different pilot lots. Each of the 3 samples was tested in 40 replicates on one plate from each lot. The mean inter-assay, inter-lot  $\%$  CV was  $3.6\%$ .

# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:

The reportable range of  $5 - 200\mathrm{U / mL}$  was demonstrated by recovery studies. Linearity is not claimed for this assay.

# c. Traceability (controls, calibrators, or method):

An international reference material for anti-MPO antibodies is not available. The assay is calibrated in relative arbitrary units (U/mL).

# d. Detection limit:

Not applicable.

# e. Analytical specificity:

Several substances were added to each of three patient specimens (i.e., negative, moderate, and high) to test for interference. Based on the results summarized below, the addition of these substances at the levels tested did not affect the assay results.

|  Substance | Level Range (U/mL) | Low |   |   | Moderate |   |   | High  |   |   |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|   |   |  Mean (U/mL) | SD | %CV | Mean (U/mL) | SD | %CV | Mean (U/mL) | SD | %CV  |
|  Hemoglobin | 0 – 440 | 5.5 | 0.3 | 5.9 | 35.9 | 1.9 | 5.2 | 76.2 | 6.4 | 8.4  |
|  Bilirubin C | 0 – 19.5 | 6.1 | 0.2 | 3.1 | 38.5 | 2.3 | 5.9 | 82.3 | 5.0 | 6.1  |
|  Bilirubin F | 0 – 18.6 | 5.9 | 0.2 | 3.8 | 38.1 | 2.5 | 6.6 | 85.3 | 7.5 | 8.8  |
|  Chyle | 0 – 2350 | 5.9 | 0.5 | 8.4 | 34.0 | 2.0 | 5.9 | 90.1 | 6.7 | 7.5  |
|  Rheumatoid Factor | 0 - 500 | 6.2 | 0.5 | 7.9 | 37.8 | 2.5 | 6.5 | 89.4 | 6.0 | 6.7  |

# f. Assay cut-off:

Sera from patients with systemic vasculitis  $(n = 79)$  were tested by indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) for the presence of anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA). Positive samples were classified as either cytoplasmic or perinuclear ANCA. The results of testing with the MESACUP Test MPO were compared to those from p-ANCA IIF positives since "the major binding agent for positive p-ANCA antibody specimens" in the IIF method is myeloperoxidase. The best performance was observed at an assay cut-off of  $22\mathrm{U / mL}$ . There is no equivocal (gray) zone for this assay.

# g. Stability:

10/19/2011

Three manufacturing lots of the device were used in real time stability studies. The kits were stored at  $2 - 8^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ . Six samples were tested at 3, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 11 months, and evaluated for optical density (O.D.) value recovery per the established assay specifications. The kits were stable up to 11 months under the specified experimental conditions.

# 2. Comparison studies:

a. Method comparison with predicate device:

The tables below show the results of comparison of serum samples  $(N = 159)$  that were tested with the MESACUP Test MPO and the predicate device.

|   | Bindazyme + | Bindazyme -  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  MESACUP-MPO + | 26 | 3  |
|  MESACUP-MPO - | 4 | 126  |
|  STATISTIC | Value | 95% CI  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  Prevalence | 0.1887 | 0.1279-0.2495  |
|  Positive Agreement | 0.8667 | 0.7450-0.9883  |
|  Negative Agreement | 0.9767 | 0.9507-1.0028  |
|  Total Agreement | 0.9560 | 0.9241-0.9879  |

b. Matrix comparison:

Serum is the only recommended matrix.

# 3. Clinical studies:

a. Clinical sensitivity:

Clinical sensitivity for the MESACUP-2 Test MPO was determined by testing sera  $(n = 79)$  from patients suspected to have a systemic vasculitis disease. Using  $22\mathrm{U / mL}$  as the cut-off,  $36.7\%$  (29/79) of the samples were positive for anti-MPO antibodies. The mean value for this sample population was  $46.7\mathrm{U / mL}$ $(\mathrm{SD} = \pm 75.7)$ . Single Factor ANOVA analysis that compared this value to the mean for the healthy controls gives a p-value of  $4.03\times 10^{-8}$ . Therefore, at a level of  $p &lt; 0.05$  for statistical significance, the results of this population were determined to be statistically different compared to the healthy controls.

b. Clinical specificity:

The applicant evaluated samples, in duplicate, from 80 consecutive healthy blood donors and used these samples as the normal population. The mean value was  $1.1\mathrm{U / mL}$ $(\mathrm{SD} = \pm 0.9)$ . None of the samples tested positive in this sample population. Therefore, the specificity was  $100\%$ .
