L. Test Principle:
The Celiac tTG IgA and IgG ELISA tests are performed as solid phase immunoassays (ELISAs). Microwells are coated with rh-tTG antigen followed by a blocking step to reduce non-specific binding during the assay run. Controls, calibrators and patient sera are incubated in the antigen coated wells to allow specific antibodies present in the serum to bind to the rh-tTG antigen. Unbound antibodies and other serum proteins are removed by washing the microwells. Unbound HRP goat anti-human conjugate is removed by washing. Specific enzyme substrate (TMB) is then added to the wells and the presence of antibodies is detected by a color change produced by the conversion of TMB substrate to a colored reaction product. The reaction is stopped and the intensity of the color change, which is proportional to the concentration of antibody, is read by a spectrophotometer at 450 nm. Results are expressed in ELISA units per milliliter (EU/mL) or reported as positive or negative.

M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):

# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:

Linearity studies were assessed by evaluating three clinical samples of different antibody levels. Each sample was diluted using eight equidistant dilutions, and the actual value was compared to the expected value. The results of the study support a claim that the tTG IgG linear range is 2.9-260 EU/mL, and the tTG IgA linear range is 4-160 EU/mL.

|  Test Range (EU/mL) | Slope (95% CI) | Y-intercept (95% CI) | R² | % recovery (obtained/expected)  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  IgA |  |  |  |   |
|  6.0 to 62.7 | 0.932 (0.879 to 0.985) | 0.926 (-1.240 to 3.091) | 0.9943 | 97.9 to 108.3  |
|  3.0 to 157.0 | 0.947 (0.892 to 1.002) | 0.999 (-4.347 to 6.345) | 0.9979 | 94.5 to 107.7  |
|  3.3 to 163.6 | 0.910 (0.824 to 0.957) | 3.239 (-1.628 to 8.106) | 0.9946 | 85.0 to 109.5  |
|  IgG |  |  |  |   |
|  3.0 to 41.9 | 0.987 (0.970 to 1.004) | 0.405 (-0.037 to 0.847) | 0.9997 | 93.5 to 101.2  |
|  2.7 to 67.6 | 0.976 (0.839 to 1.112) | 4.303 (-0.854 to 9.459) | 0.9801 | 77.6 to 100.1  |

The claimed assay range of IgA is 4.0 (LoD) to 160 EU/mL.

The claimed assay range for the IgG is 2.9 (LoD) to 260 EU/mL.

c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):

Calibrators are not traceable to any recognized standards. Calibrators are dilutions of pooled serum of tTG antibody from patients with Celiac disease. IMMCO formulates new calibrator and control lots from an array of tTG antibody positive sera obtained from various commercial plasma centers stored at -70°C. The calibrators and controls are taken from different pooled sera. As new lots of calibrators are developed, studies are performed to calibrate values against original calibrators. Each lot of calibrator is also tested in comparison with normal human sera, clinical samples and internal standards. The concentration values of the calibrators are as follows:

|  Calibrator | IgA Assay Value | IgG Assay Value  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  Cal A | 160 EU/mL | 320 EU/mL  |
|  Cal B | 80 EU/mL | 160 EU/mL  |
|  Cal C | 40 EU/mL | 80 EU/mL  |
|  Cal D | 20 EU/mL | 20 EU/mL  |
|  Cal E | 0 – 1 EU/mL | 0 – 1 EU/mL  |

Stability

Shelf-life: Stability studies are performed comparing materials stored at 2-8°C with materials stored at 37°C and removed in 3 day intervals. One day stored at 37°C is considered equivalent to one month of real time at 2-8°C. Three lots of components/reagents were tested. Based on these studies, IMMCO established a shelf-life of 18 months.

Open-kit: Opened materials, stored at 2-8°C, were tested in the above fashion, and were found to be stable up to 90 days.

Sample stability

Specimens should be stored at 2-8°C for no longer than one week. For longer storage, serum specimens should be frozen. Repeated freezing and thawing of samples should be avoided.

Coated microwell strips are for one time use only. Resealed microwell strips should be stored at 2-8°C until expiration date indicated on the label.

# d. Detection limit:

The limit of blank (LoB) was calculated using sixty replicates of a serum diluent sample, sorting the results by OD and averaging the  $3^{\mathrm{rd}}$  and  $4^{\mathrm{th}}$  highest values.

The limit of detection (LoD) was calculated by taking the SD of 10 replicates of each of 6 low-level (normal) clinical samples (for a total of 60 replicates) and using procedures described in CLSI EP-17A:

|   | LoB (EU/mL) | LoD (EU/mL)  |
| --- | --- | --- |
|  Celiac tTG IgA | 3.7 | 4.0  |
|  Celiac tTG IgG | 2.6 | 2.9  |

# e. Analytical specificity:

Cross reactivity: Cross reactivity was tested using 49 clinical samples from individuals with other autoimmune disorders. In addition, data was collected from 14 patients with gastrointestinal disorders. Results demonstrated no significant cross-reactivity.

The package insert states that “Grossly hemolyzed or lipemic or microbially contaminated specimens may interfere with the performance of the test and should not be used”.

f. Assay cut-off:
The normal range was established by testing 114 samples from apparently healthy donors and non-celiac controls on each assay. The mean value was &lt;10 EU/mL for both the IgA and IgG assay. The mean value (&lt;10 EU/mL) plus 2 standard deviations was established as the cut-off for each assay, and assigned an arbitrary unit value of 20 EU/mL.

&lt;20 EU/mL  Negative
20-25 EU/mL  Indeterminate (Borderline)
&gt;25 EU/mL  Positive

b. Other clinical supportive data (when a. is not applicable):
Not applicable

4. Clinical cut-off:
See assay cut-off

5. Expected values/Reference range:
The expected value in the normal population is negative. However, the sponsor states, as the incidence of CD in the normal population is about 1%, some apparently healthy, asymptomatic individuals may test positive for tTG antibodies.

N. Proposed Labeling:
The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.

O. Conclusion:
The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.
