TCPI's One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse: Phencyclidine (PCP) Test is a rapid, qualitative, competitive binding immunoassay for the determination of Phencyclidine (PCP) in urine at the cutoff level of 25 ng/ml. The test provides only preliminary data which should be confirmed by other methods such as gas chromatography/mass spectrophotometry (GC/MS). Clinical considerations and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated6. TCPI's One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse: Phencyclidine (PCP) Test is not intended to monitor drug levels, but only to screen urines for the presence of Phencyclidine (PCP) and its metabolites.

TCPI's One Step Urine Drug of Abuse Phencyclidine™ (PCP) Test Strip is a rapid, qualitative, competitive binding immunoassay for the determination of Phencyclidine (PCP) in urine. The One Step Urine Drug of Abuse Phencyclidine™ (PCP) Test Strip is a chromatographic absorbent device in which the drug or drug metabolites in the sample compete with a drug conjugate immobilized on a porous membrane support for a limited number of antibody binding sites. As a test sample flows up through the absorbent device, labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to free drug in the specimen, forming an antibody-antigen complex. This complex with immobilized antigen conjugate in the Test Zone of the strip, and will not produce a magenta color band when the drug concentration in the specimen is above the detection level of 25 ng/ml. Unbound dye conjugate birds to the reagent in the Control Zone of the strip, producing a magenta color band, demonstrating that the reagents and device are functioning correctly. A negative specimen produces two distinct color bands, one in the Test Zone and one in the Control Zone A positive specimen produces only one color band in the Control Zone.

This submission describes the "One Step Urine Drug of Abuse: Phencyclidine™ (PCP) Test" by Technical Chemicals and Products, Inc. (TCPI).

Here's an analysis of the provided information:

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

The acceptance criteria are implicitly defined by the comparison to the Emit® II assay, which is a legally marketed predicate device, and the subsequent confirmation by GC/MS. The goal is 100% agreement with Emit® II.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

• Sample Size: 286 individual urine samples for the clinical trial, in addition to 227 in-house tested samples, for a total of 513 samples.
• Data Provenance: The 286 clinical trial samples were submitted to a "NDA certified laboratory," implying external, potentially real-world, clinical samples. The country of origin is not explicitly stated but can be inferred as the US based on the FDA submission. The study is retrospective in the sense that the samples were already collected and tested by the NDA certified laboratory using Emit® II before being re-tested with the new device.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

• Experts: Not explicitly stated as "experts" in the traditional sense of clinicians establishing a diagnosis. The ground truth for the preliminary comparison was the Emit® II Phencyclidine (PCP) assay.
• Qualifications: The Emit® II assay was performed by an "NDA certified laboratory." The personnel performing these tests would be qualified laboratory technicians or clinical scientists.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

• Adjudication Method: Not applicable in the traditional sense for diagnostic test evaluation against a gold standard or predicate.
  • The initial comparison was directly against the Emit® II assay as the predicate.
  • For samples that tested positive by either the Emit® II or the new device (223 samples), all were confirmed by GC/MS. This acts as a confirmatory "adjudication" against the true (analytical) ground truth.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

• No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not conducted. This is an in vitro diagnostic device, not an imaging or interpretation device that would typically involve multiple human readers.

6. If a Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) was done

• Yes, this study represents a standalone performance evaluation of the immunoassay device itself. The interpretation of the color bands (positive/negative) is inherent to the device's design, and while a human observes the result, the "performance" is based on the chemical reaction within the device.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

• Primary Ground Truth for Comparison: Emit® II Phencyclidine (PCP) assay results (predicate device).
• Confirmatory Ground Truth: Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS). This is considered the analytical gold standard for confirming drug presence and concentration.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

• The document does not explicitly mention a separate "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI. This is an immunoassay device, which typically does not involve a training phase in the same way an AI algorithm would. The 227 "in-house" tested samples could be considered an internal validation/development set, but not a training set for an algorithm.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established

• As there is no explicit "training set" for an AI algorithm mentioned, this question is not directly applicable. For the in-house testing, the ground truth would have been established through controlled spiking of samples or comparison to established methods like Emit® II or GC/MS, similar to the test set. The document states "In both studies, the laboratories used Emit® II Phencyclidine (PCP) as their screening procedure, with a cutoff of 25 ng/ml."

The TCPI One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Amphetamine Test is a rapid, qualitative, competitive binding immunoassay for the determination of Amphetamine in urine. The test provides only preliminary data which should be confirmed by other methods such as gas chromatography/mass spectrophotometry (GC/MS). Clinical considerations and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated. The TCPI One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Amphetamine assay is not intended to monitor drug levels, but only to screen urines for the presence of amphetamine and its metabolites.

TCPI's One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Amphetamine Test consists of a chromatographic absorbent device in which the drug or drug metabolites in the sample compete with a drug conjugate immobilized on a porous membrane support for the limited antibody sites. As the test sample flows up through the absorbent device, the labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to the free drug in the specimen forming an antibody:antigen complex. This complex competes with immobilized antigen conjugate in the positive reaction zone and will not produce a magenta color band when the drug is above the detection level of 500 ng/ml. Unbound dye conjugate binds to the reagent in the control zone, producing a magenta color band, demonstrating that the reagents and device are functioning correctly.

Here's the information about the acceptance criteria and study for the "One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Amphetamine Test":

1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

However, based on the provided text, the implicit acceptance criteria is a high level of accuracy when compared to a gold standard (GC/MS) and other screening tests. The device performance demonstrates that these implicit criteria were met.

2. Sample Sizes Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

• Laboratory Study: 260 samples
• Clinical Trials: 300 patient samples
• Combined Total: 560 comparisons

The text does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether it was retrospective or prospective. It refers to "laboratory studies" and "clinical trials," which typically involve prospective collection, but this is not explicitly stated.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

The text does not mention the use of experts to establish ground truth.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

The text does not mention any adjudication method for the test set.

5. If a Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

A Multi Reader Multi Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is a rapid, qualitative immunoassay for screening, not an image-based or interpretation-based device suitable for an MRMC study with human readers assisted by AI.

6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The device itself (the "One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Amphetamine Test") is the standalone "algorithm" in this context, providing a qualitative result without human interpretation of complex data. Its performance was tested directly against GC/MS and in clinical trials.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

The primary ground truth used was Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrophotometry (GC/MS), widely considered the gold standard for drug confirmation testing. For the clinical trials, the comparison was implicitly against "other screening tests," but the overall and most robust ground truth mentioned is GC/MS.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

The document does not specify a separate "training set" or its size. In the context of a qualitative immunoassay, the development and optimization of the test (which could be analogous to "training") would typically involve numerous iterations and tests with various known positive and negative samples, but these are not explicitly detailed as a distinct "training set" in the submission's summary of safety and effectiveness. The reported sample sizes (260 lab, 300 clinical) are for the performance evaluation, which serves as the "test set."

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

Since a distinct training set with established ground truth is not explicitly mentioned, this information cannot be provided from the given text. However, for the general development of such a test, the ground truth for samples used in the chemical design and optimization would also be established by reference methods like GC/MS.

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse: Benzodiazepine Test, based on the provided document:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

Note: The document states that "By non-parametric testing, the results are significantly different from one another" when comparing the clinical trial data to Emit II 200®. This suggests that while the One Step™ test performed well, there were statistical differences in its results compared to the predicate device. The document clarifies that the false positives from Emit II® were due to drug levels below the 200 ng/ml cutoff, confirmed by GC/MS.

Study Details

1. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance:

   • Clinical Trial Test Set: 303 samples.
   • In-house Test Set: Not explicitly stated, but results are given for "positive samples of 1000" and "negative samples of 0.9740" (likely a typo, intended to refer to a percentage of negatives, or related to the number of negative samples if positive samples were 1000) and "accuracy of 98.54%".
   • Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, but given it's a 510(k) submission to the FDA, it's typically for the US market. The mention of "clinical trial" suggests prospective data collection in a clinical setting. "In-house testing" would be retrospective data from the manufacturer.

2. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:

   • Not specified. The ground truth was established by comparison to Syva EMIT II 2200® for initial screening, and then confirmed by GC/MS 200. No mention of expert review as the primary ground truth establishment.

3. Adjudication method for the test set:

   • The primary method of adjudication was confirmation of all positive samples (by either the One Step™ test or Syva EMIT II 2200®) using Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS 200). For ambiguous or discrepant results (e.g., Emit II® false positives), GC/MS served as the definitive arbiter.

4. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance:

   • No, this device is a qualitative diagnostic test for drug detection in urine, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging device. Therefore, an MRMC study with human readers and AI assistance is not applicable.

5. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:

   • Yes, the device itself is a standalone qualitative test. Its performance statistics (agreement within positives/negatives, accuracy) were measured independently against reference methods (EMIT II and GC/MS). There is no "human-in-the-loop" component in the interpretation of the test result other than a visual reading of the color bands.

6. The type of ground truth used:

   • The gold standard for ground truth was Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS 200), which was used to confirm all positive samples from either screening method. The Syva EMIT II 2200® was used as a comparative screening method, but GC/MS was the definitive validation.

7. The sample size for the training set:

   • Not specified. As this is a chromatographic absorbent device (immunoassay), it's not a machine learning model, and thus there isn't a traditional "training set" in the computational sense. The device's components and chemical reactions are designed rather than trained.

8. How the ground truth for the training set was established:

   • Not applicable, as there is no training set in the context of a machine learning model for this type of device. The device's operational characteristics (e.g., cutoff levels, chemical sensitivities) are established through research, development, and calibration using known concentrations of benzodiazepines and their metabolites.

This device is intended for medical/forensic screening of urine.

TCPI's One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Cannabinoids test consists of a chromatographic absorbent device in which the drug or drug metabolites in the sample compete with a drug conjugate immobilized on a porous membrane support for the limited antibody sites. As the test sample flows up through the absorbent device, the labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to the free drug in the specimen forming an antibody antigen complex. This complex competes with immobilized antigen conjugate in the positive reaction zone and will not produce a magenta color band when the drug is above the detection level of 50 ng/ml. Unbound dye conjugate binds to the reagent in the control zone, producing a magenta color band, demonstrating that the reagents and device are functioning correctly.

This looks like a 510(k) submission for a drug test, which is a medical device. Here's an extraction of the requested information based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

Note: The document implicitly sets high performance standards by comparing to gold standard methods. The "acceptance criteria" are derived from these reported performance metrics, suggesting that meeting or exceeding these levels was expected.

Study Details

1. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance:

   • In-house testing: 249 individual urine samples. Data provenance is "in house," implying control over the sample collection and characteristics, likely from a lab environment.
   • Broader clinical trial: The specific sample size for the "broader clinical trial in a NIDA certified laboratory" is not explicitly stated in the provided text.
   • Data Provenance: The broader clinical trial was conducted in a "NIDA certified laboratory," suggesting a focus on samples relevant to drug testing in the United States and likely representing prospective or banked samples from that context. The text does not explicitly state if it was retrospective or prospective, but clinical trials generally involve prospective collection or analysis of existing samples for a specific purpose.

2. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of those Experts:

   • The ground truth was established by "GC/MS" (Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry). This is a laboratory analytical technique, not human experts. Therefore, the concept of "number of experts" and their qualifications doesn't directly apply in this context for establishing the gold standard.

3. Adjudication Method for the Test Set:

   • There was no mention of an adjudication method involving human reviewers. The gold standard was GC/MS, a definitive analytical method, which would not typically require human adjudication for its results.

4. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done:

   • No. The study described compares the device's performance against established analytical methods (Sigma SIA™ THC, Syva Emit, and GC/MS), not against human readers.

5. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done:

   • Yes, this was a standalone study. The device (One Step™ Urine Drug of Abuse Cannabinoid Test) is a chromatographic absorbent device designed for qualitative testing, meaning it provides a result (presence or absence of drug) without human interpretation of complex images or data. Its performance was measured directly against gold standard laboratory methods.

6. The Type of Ground Truth Used:

   • The primary ground truth used was GC/MS (Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry). This is a highly accurate and definitive analytical method considered a "gold standard" for drug detection and quantification in urine samples. Other reference methods mentioned (Sigma SIA™ THC, Syva Emit) were also used for comparison in the in-house testing.

7. The Sample Size for the Training Set:

   • The provided text does not explicitly mention a separate "training set" or its sample size. The description focuses on the evaluation of the "final product" using "in house testing" and a "broader clinical trial." For a device like this, the development and optimization (which might be considered analogous to training) would precede the final product testing but are not detailed here.

8. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established:

   • Since a training set is not explicitly mentioned, the method for establishing its ground truth is also not described. If development involved iterative testing, it's highly probable that similar laboratory methods like GC/MS would have been used to guide the assay development.

UriTest- Nitrite in Urine is a nonquantitative test to identify nitrite in urine. Nitrite identification is used for the detection of Urinary Tract Infection.

UriTest - Nitrite in Urine is a reagent strip test used to measure the presence of Nitrite in urine. Nitrite is produced by most organisms commonly associated with urinary tract infection. Nitrite is used to detect urinary tract infection.

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details for the Uri-Test - Nitrite in Urine, based on the provided text:

Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance

The provided document does not explicitly state pre-defined acceptance criteria (e.g., "The device must achieve a sensitivity of at least X%"). Instead, it presents the performance of the UriTest and implies that these results are considered acceptable because they demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device (Bayer Multistix).

Note: The "Spiked Samples" section also shows a 100% sensitivity and accuracy, but "Specificity = Not Valid" due to the nature of the artificial positive-only sample. This test appears to confirm the device's ability to detect nitrite when present.

Study Details

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance

• Sample Size:
  • Professional User & Lay User Tests: 101 samples (derived from the sum of positives and negatives in the Bayer arm: 16+7+0+78 for professional, 16+9+0+76 for lay user, though the tables are not identical, it sums to 101. The discrepancies in specific cells between professional and lay user suggest separate analyses or slightly different interpretations of the same base data for the negative group).
  • Spiked Samples: 33 samples (all positive).
• Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated. However, given the context of a 510(k) submission, it is highly likely that these were prospective clinical samples collected for the purpose of this comparison study. The document does not specify the country of origin.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts

• Number of Experts: Not specified.
• Qualifications of Experts: Not specified. The "ground truth" for the comparison studies was established by the predicate device, Bayer Multistix, itself. For the "Professional User" test, a professional presumably read both the UriTest and Bayer Multistix. For the "Lay User" test, a lay user read the UriTest, and a professional likely read the Bayer Multistix as the reference.

4. Adjudication method for the test set

• Adjudication Method: Not applicable or not specified. In this comparison study, the Bayer Multistix serves as the reference standard (the "ground truth"). The UriTest's results are compared directly to the results obtained from the Bayer Multistix for the same samples. There's no indication of an independent adjudication process for discrepancies between the two devices, as the predicate device's reading is assumed to be correct.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

• MRMC Study: No, this was not an MRMC study and does not involve AI assistance. The study compares a new device (UriTest) to a predicate device (Bayer Multistix) for detecting nitrite in urine. The users are either "Professional User" or "Lay User" directly interpreting the test strips.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

• Standalone Study: No, this is not an algorithm-only device. It's a reagent strip that requires human interpretation (either professional or lay user) to read the color change.

7. The type of ground truth used

• Type of Ground Truth: The ground truth for the comparison studies was established by the predicate device, Bayer Multistix, on the same urine samples. For the spiked samples, the ground truth was the known presence of bacteria (leading to nitrite production) in the spiked urine.

8. The sample size for the training set

• Training Set Sample Size: Not applicable. This type of device (reagent strip) does not typically involve a "training set" in the machine learning sense. The performance data is derived from clinical comparison and spiked sample testing.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

• Ground Truth for Training Set: Not applicable, as there is no training set in the machine learning sense. The performance of the device is assessed against a predicate device and known positive (spiked) samples.

Ask a specific question about this device

The Technical Chemicals and Products Inc. ("TCPI") One Step™ Pregnancy hCG strip assay is a qualitative, sandwich dye conjugate immunoassay for the determination of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin in urine or serum.

The method employs a unique combination of monoclonal and polyclonal antibodies to selectively identify hCG in test samples with a high degree of sensitivity using a unique patented membrane technology. In less than 5 minutes, elevated levels of hCG as low as 25 mIU/ml can be detected. If the test is to be used on serum the sample must be diluted according to the directions for the One Step™ Pregnancy hCG serum diluent (cat XXXX). As the test sample flows up through the absorbent device, the labeled antibody-dye conjugate binds to the hCG in the specimen forming an antibody-antigen complex. This complex binds to the anti-hCG antibody in the positive reaction zone and produces a pink-rose color band when hCG concentration is greater than 25 mIU/ml. In the absence of hCG, there is no line in the positive reaction zone. The reaction mixture continues flowing through the absorbent device past the positive reaction zone and negative zone. Unbound conjugate binds to the reagents in the negative control zone, producing a pink-rose (magenta) color band, demonstrating that the reagents and device are functioning correctly.

  • For the initial blind study: 150 documented patient samples (90 pregnant and 60 not pregnant).
  • For the serum/plasma diluent extension: 385 patient comparisons.
• Data provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin). Both studies appear to be prospective as they involved testing patient samples or patient comparisons.

3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Their Qualifications

• Number of experts: Not explicitly stated.
• Qualifications of experts: The text mentions "documented (Pregnant/not pregnant) patient samples" for the initial study and "reference methods" for the serum/plasma study. It does not provide details on the specific qualifications of those who provided the "documentation" or performed the "reference methods."

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

• Adjudication method: Not explicitly stated. For the initial study, the "documented" status of the patient samples served as the ground truth. For the serum/plasma extension, "reference methods" were used for comparison. There is no mention of a formal adjudication process (e.g., 2+1, 3+1).

5. Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study

• Was an MRMC study done? No. The provided text describes studies comparing the device's performance to documented patient status or reference methods, not comparing human readers' performance with and without AI assistance.

6. Standalone (Algorithm Only Without Human-in-the-Loop Performance) Study

• Was a standalone study done? Yes. The studies described evaluate the performance of the One Step™ Pregnancy hCG strip itself, as a standalone diagnostic device. The results (e.g., 100% accuracy, 25 mIU/ml sensitivity) reflect the device's intrinsic capabilities.

7. Type of Ground Truth Used

• For the initial blind study: The ground truth was based on "documented (Pregnant/not pregnant) patient samples." This likely refers to a clinical diagnosis confirmed by other means (e.g., medical history, other tests).
• For the serum/plasma diluent extension: The ground truth was established by "reference methods" (e.g., laboratory-based hCG assays).

8. Sample Size for the Training Set

• Sample size for training set: The document does not provide information about a specific "training set" for the device, as it's a lateral flow immunoassay rather than an AI/machine learning algorithm. The "extensive testing against substances known to interfere" and "specificity... tested against other hormones" can be considered part of the development/calibration process, but a distinct "training set" as understood in AI context is not applicable or mentioned.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

• How ground truth was established for training set: Not applicable, as there is no specific training set described in the context of an AI algorithm learning from data. The device's performance characteristics (sensitivity, specificity) are established through analytical testing and clinical validation against known samples/standards.
