Indications for Use
The DRI™ Ecstasy Plus Assay is an in vitro diagnostic medical device intended for the qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of MDMA (Ecstasy) in human urine. The assay is intended for use on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The DRI™ Ecstasy Plus Assay provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternate chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) or liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry (LC/MS/MS) are the preferred confirmatory methods. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used.
Device Story
Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay for detection of ecstasy drugs (MDA, MDMA, MDEA) in human urine; utilizes mouse monoclonal anti-MDMA antibodies, glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD). Principle: competitive binding between drug in urine and drug-labeled glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) enzyme conjugate for antibody binding sites; enzyme activity is proportional to drug concentration in sample. Used in clinical laboratories by trained professionals on automated analyzers (e.g., Abbott Architect C4000). Provides preliminary screening results; positive results require confirmation via GC/MS or LC-MS/MS. Assists clinicians in diagnosing ecstasy abuse by identifying presence of CNS stimulants; results interpreted alongside clinical observations and patient history.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Verification and validation activities performed to assess the impact of increased antibody loading. Design control documentation confirms the modified device performs equivalently to the predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay. Reagents: R1 (mouse monoclonal anti-MDMA antibody, G6P, NAD in Tris buffer with sodium azide); R2 (MDMA-labeled G6PDH enzyme conjugate in Tris buffer with sodium azide). Storage: 2-8°C. Analyzers: Automated clinical chemistry systems (e.g., Abbott Architect C4000).
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative and semi-quantitative detection of MDMA (Ecstasy) in human urine for clinical toxicology purposes. Intended for use by healthcare professionals in clinical laboratory settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An amphetamine test system is a device intended to measure amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in plasma and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An amphetamine 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).
