Indications for Use

Remel Spectra ESBL is a selective and differential growth medium for use in primary isolation and presumptive identification of Extended Spectrum β Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca and Proteus mirabilis to aid in prevention and control of these bacteria in a healthcare setting. Testing may be performed from either perirectal swabs or fresh stool specimens. Remel Spectra ESBL is not intended to diagnose ESBL infection, or to guide or monitor treatment. Do not report Spectra ESBL positive screening results. Subculture of presumptive positive colonies to non-selective medium (e.g., Tryptic Soy Agar with 5% sheep blood) is required for organism identification, confirmatory testing for ESBL, susceptibility testing and epidemiological typing. A lack of growth or the absence of pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies on Spectra ESBL does not preclude the presence of ESBL producing organisms.

Device Story

Selective and differential culture medium; utilizes antibacterial agents to suppress non-ESBL flora; enables recovery of target ESBL-producing Enterobacteriaceae (E. coli, K. pneumoniae, K. oxytoca, P. mirabilis) from stool or perirectal swabs. Contains peptones for growth and chromogenic substrates for visual differentiation. Operated by laboratory technicians in clinical settings. Input: clinical specimen (stool/swab). Output: visual colony growth (pink, blue-turquoise-green, or tan). Interpretation: manual, visual assessment of colony color. Clinical utility: screening tool for colonization control; requires mandatory subculture to non-selective media for confirmatory identification and susceptibility testing. Benefits: facilitates rapid presumptive identification of ESBL-producing organisms to support hospital infection control measures.

Measurand: Extended Spectrum $\beta$-Lactamase (ESBL) producing *Escherichia coli*, *Klebsiella pneumoniae*, *Klebsiella oxytoca* and *Proteus mirabilis* D. Type of Test: Selective and differential culture medium E. Applicant: Remel, Inc. F. Proprietary and Established Names: Remel Spectra ESBL G. Regulatory Information: 1. Regulation section: 21 CFR 866.1700 2. Classification: II 3. Product code: JSO: Culture Media, Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test, Excluding Mueller Hinton Agar 4. Panel: 83 Microbiology {1} H. Intended Use: 1. Intended use(s): Remel Spectra ESBL is a selective and differential growth medium for use in primary isolation and presumptive identification of Extended Spectrum β Lactamase (ESBL)-producing Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca and Proteus mirabilis to aid in prevention and control of these bacteria in a healthcare setting. Testing may be performed from either perirectal swabs or fresh stool specimens. Remel Spectra ESBL is not intended to diagnose ESBL infection, or to guide or monitor treatment. Do not report Spectra ESBL positive screening results. Subculture of presumptive positive colonies to non-selective medium (e.g., Tryptic Soy Agar with 5% sheep blood) is required for organism identification, confirmatory testing for ESBL, susceptibility testing and epidemiological typing. A lack of growth or the absence of pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies on Spectra ESBL does not preclude the presence of ESBL producing organisms. 2. Indication(s) for use: Same as Intended Use 3. Special conditions for use statement(s): For prescription use only Do not report positive screening results obtained on Spectra ESBL. Subculture is required for organism identification and ESBL confirmatory testing. Colony color on Remel Spectra ESBL should not be used as a basis for organism identification. Colony color may vary based on the species, strain of organism, specimen, matrix and density of inoculum. While Spectra ESBL is a screening medium for ESBL-producing E. coli, K. pneumoniae, K. oxytoca and P. mirabilis, other Enterobacteriaceae that do not have CLSI interpretive screening guidelines for ESBL production may also grow on Spectra ESBL. It is important to subculture isolated pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies from Spectra ESBL to non-selective medium to confirm identity, susceptibility and ESBL phenotype when screening for ESBL-producing microorganisms. Areas of heavy stool inoculum in the 1st or 2nd quadrants may cause ESBL producing strains of the targeted species to produce colony colors other than those expected. Only sample well isolated pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies from the 3rd or 4th quadrants. A lack of growth or the absence of pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies on Spectra 2 {2} ESBL does not preclude the presence of ESBL-producing organisms. False negative results may occur due to variations in sampling, slow development or failure to develop the expected colony color, or the presence of organisms that are susceptible to the antimicrobial agents included in the Spectra ESBL medium. When present at high concentration, some non-ESBL producing species may produce colonies that are consistent in appearance with those of ESBL-producing strains and suppress growth of target organisms. The performance of Spectra ESBL has been established with fresh stool specimens and perirectal swabs only. Performance characteristics with rectal swabs or other specimens have not been established. 4. Special instrument requirements: None I. Device Description: Remel Spectra ESBL is a selective and differential culture medium that contains a combination of antibacterial agents that suppress the growth of non-Extended Spectrum $\beta$-Lactamase (non-ESBL) producing organisms and enable recovery of ESBL-producing strains of Escherichia coli, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Klebsiella oxytoca and Proteus mirabilis from stool and perirectal swab specimens. The medium contains peptones that supply amino acids and essential nutrients to promote the growth of enteric Gram-negative organisms. Sodium chloride is present as a source of electrolytes and to maintain osmotic equilibrium. Metabolism of chromogenic substrates and other components of the medium enable visual differentiation of colonies of target and non-target organisms. J. Substantial Equivalence Information: 1.

Wayne, PA. Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute; 2012. ## L. Test Principle: Remel Spectra ESBL contains a combination of antibacterial agents that inhibit non-ESBL producing Enterbacteriaceae and suppress the growth of most organisms that carry AmpC β-lactamases, as well as other non-ESBL producing flora. Peptones supply amino acids and essential nutrients which promote the growth of enteric gram-negative bacteria. Sodium chloride is a source of essential electrolytes and maintains osmotic equilibrium. A chromogenic mixture enables differentiation of isolates that express galactosidase (turquoise-green colonies) and/or glucuronidase (blue or pink colonies). Hydrolysis of tryptophan also produces tan colonies with a brown halo. Pink, blue-turquoise-green or tan colonies are presumptively positive for ESBL-producing E. coli, K. pneumoniae, K. oxytoca, or P. mirabilis. Subculture is required for organism identification and ESBL confirmatory testing. {6} # M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable): # 1. Analytical performance: # a. Precision/Reproducibility: The reproducibility of Spectra ESBL was evaluated using a blinded nine member panel of isolates comprised of seven ESBL producing strains of $E.$ coli (3), Klebsiella pneumoniae (3), and $K.$ oxytoca (1) and one strain each of non-ESBL producing $E.$ coli and $K.$ pneumoniae. Testing was performed by 2 operators at 3 sites on each of 5 days using two levels of each panel member (approximately $10^{4}$ and $10^{6}$ CFU/mL) (2 operators x 5 days x 3 sites x 9 panel members = 270 results per organism level). At both target levels, there was $100\%$ agreement with expected colony color for all the ESBL-producing organisms (210/210) and there were no false positive results with either of the non-ESBL-producing strains (0/60). The results of the study were acceptable. # b. Linearity/assay reportable range: Not Applicable # c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Weekly Quality Control testing was performed at each of the sites that participated in the Clinical Study described in Section M(3). The Quality Control strains used in the study are shown in Table 1. During the course of the Clinical Study, each control strain was tested a total of 50 times and there were no unexpected results (100% agreement). These results are acceptable. Table 1.

Detection limit: # Limit of Detection The Limit of Detection (LOD) of Spectra ESBL was determined by plating serial dilutions of 11 confirmed ESBL-producing strains of bacteria that were prepared in saline $(100\mu \mathrm{L}$ per plate). The LOD was also determined for a subset of strains suspended in a liquefied stool matrix using an inoculum volume of $1\mathrm{mL}$ per plate. The results of both these studies are summarized in Table 2. The LOD in saline {7} ranged from 1-1000 CFU/mL, depending on the strain. For each of the 4 strains tested in stool matrix, the LOD was 10 CFU/mL. Table 2.

All of the strains grew with the expected colony color when diluted in saline and inoculated at a concentration of $10^{3}$ CFU/plate. # e. Analytical specificity: The analytical specificity of Spectra ESBL was evaluated by testing a panel of 61 confirmed non-ESBL producing strains of Enterobacteriaceae as well as 49 strains of non-Enterobacteriaceae species at an inoculum concentration of $10^{4}$ CFU/plate. The organisms tested are summarized in Tables 3 and 4. {8} Table 3.

None of the non-Enterobacteriaceae tested produced colonies that could be mistaken for potentially ESBL producing species. The potential for non-ESBL producing strains of Enterobacteriaceae that are non-susceptible to cephalosporins to be recovered on Spectra ESBL is noted as a Limitation in the Package Insert. The device labeling also stipulates that positive results on Spectra ESBL should not be reported and that subculture of presumptively positive colonies is required for organism identification, confirmatory testing for ESBL, susceptibility testing and epidemiological typing. The risks to patients from false positive results with Spectra ESBL are therefore mitigated and the results of the Analytical Specificity Study are acceptable. # e. Assay cut-off: Not applicable. # g. Assay Interference # Interfering Microorganisms A study was conducted to evaluate the ability of Spectra ESBL to recover target organisms from mixtures of ESBL-producing and non-ESBL producing species. Testing was performed by mixing target organisms at levels close the LOD of Spectra ESBL with non-target organisms at $10^{6}$ to $10^{9}$ CFU/mL in saline. The results of the Mixed Infection Study are summarized in Table 5. Table 5.

The Spectra ESBL Intended Use and result interpretation chart also stipulate that positive results should not be reported and that subculture of colonies is required for {10} organism identification and susceptibility testing, including ESBL confirmation. # Interfering Substances A study was conducted to evaluate the performance of Spectra ESBL in the presence of endogenous and exogenous substances that may be present in stool and/or perirectal swab specimens. Twenty-one substances were tested in liquefied stool matrix in the presence of 5 representative ESBL-producing organisms (E. coli (2), K. pneumoniae (2) and P. mirabilis (1)). Semi-quantitative colony counts on Spectra ESBL were compared in the presence and absence of each potential interfering substance. The results are summarized in Table 6 and are acceptable. Table 6.

Isolated colonies of 6 ESBL producing strains (E. coli (3), K. pneumoniae (2) and P. mirabilis (1)) were sampled using collection swabs that were then immersed in charcoal-containing transport medium prior to inoculating Spectra ESBL. The expected colony color was obtained with each ESBL-producing strain demonstrating {11} the compatibility of charcoal swabs with the culture medium. These results are acceptable. 2. Comparison studies: a. Method comparison with predicate device: Not applicable. b. Matrix comparison: Refer to Section M(2)(g), above. 3. Clinical studies: a. Clinical Sensitivity: The performance of Spectra ESBL was evaluated in a prospective Clinical Study that was conducted at 3 sites using either fresh (unpreserved) stool or perirectal swab specimens that were collected from subjects at risk of colonization with ESBL-producing organisms. Two of the clinical sites tested stool specimens and a third site tested only perirectal swabs. To establish the presence or absence of ESBL positive organisms of the targeted species, reference culture was performed at each of the sites through inoculation of MacConkey agar plates with a 10μg cefpodoxime disk between the 1st and 2nd quadrants, followed by identification by standard methods and (as appropriate) ESBL confirmatory testing of colonies that grew in the zone of inhibition according to the procedure described in CLSI M100.¹ All specimens were cultured within 24 hours of collection. Spectra ESBL plates were read after 18 and 24 hours at 35±2°C and all colony types recovered were identified and, as appropriate, underwent confirmatory testing of the ESBL phenotype. Specimens from a total of 1194 subjects were enrolled in the study (748 fresh stool specimens and 446 perirectal swabs). Eighteen specimens were excluded from analysis due to protocol deviations: 15 (8 stool and 7 perirectal swab) because they were not plated within 24 hours of collection and 3 (all stool) because the isolates recovered were not available for identification and antimicrobial susceptibility testing. Isolates from a total 737 stool specimens and 439 perirectal swabs were therefore included in the analysis of performance. The results of the study are summarized in Tables 7 to 11. With perirectal swabs, the performance of Spectra ESBL was the same when plates were read after 18 and 24 hours, with sensitivity and specificity values of 99.1% (95% confidence interval: ¹ CLSI. Performance Standards for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing. 23rd ed. CLSI supplement M100.

For fresh stool specimens, the sensitivity and specificity values after 18 hours of incubation were 97.8% (95% CI: 92.5-99.4%) and 89.6% (95% CI: 87.1-91.7%), respectively, while after 24 hours the sensitivity was 98.9% (95% CI: 94.2-99.8%) and the specificity was 88.1% (95% CI: 85.5-90.3%). For both specimen types combined, the sensitivity and specificity were 98.5% (95% CI: 95.8-99.5%) and 89.6% (95% CI: 87.6-91.3%), respectively, after 18 hours and 99.0% (95% CI: 96.5-99.7%) and 88.7% (95% CI: 86.6-90.4%), respectively, after 24 hours.

Colonies on Spectra ESBL were subcultured to sheep blood agar, identified biochemically and, as {14} appropriate, underwent confirmatory ESBL testing according to CLSI M100. Of 308 isolates on Spectra ESBL that exhibited pink/blue-turquoise-green/tan colonies after 18 hours, 203 were confirmed as ESBL producing strains of $E.$ coli, $K.$ pneumoniae, $K.$ oxytoca or $P.$ mirabilis (Positive Predictive Value [PPV] = 65.9%). After 24 hours, the PPV was 64.4% (206/320). Because of the potential for false positive results with Spectra ESBL, the Intended Use and result interpretation table in the device labeling indicate that positive results should not be reported and that subculture is required for organism identification and ESBL confirmatory testing.

Clinical specificity: Refer to Section M(3)(a), above. c. Other clinical supportive data (when a. and b. are not applicable): Not Applicable {15} 4. Clinical cut-off: Not Applicable 5. Expected values/Reference range: In the prospective Clinical Study described in Section M(3), above, the prevalence of ESBL-producing E.coli, K. pneumoniae, K. oxytoca or P. mirabilis that was observed on Spectra ESBL after 18h incubation was 23.0% (270/1176) compared with 23.9% (281/1176) after incubation for 24h. As determined by the Reference Method after 18 and 24h incubation of the MacConkey plates, the prevalence was 15.0% (176/1176) and 15.3% (178/1176), respectively. N. Proposed Labeling: The labeling is sufficient and satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR 809.10. O. Conclusion: The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence determination. 16
