Beckman Coulter's iTAg MHC Tetramer-CMV is for the identification and enumeration of cytomegalovirus (CMV) -specific CD8+ lymphocytes in whole blood by flow cytometry, and for the assessment of CMV-specific immune status in immunosuppressed stem cell transplant recipients. The assay is limited to individuals with the following HLA types: A0101, A0201, B0702, B0801, B*3501.
iTAg™ MHC Tetramer CMV is similar to existing CD (cluster differentiation) technology, measuring subsets of an individual's total leukocyte population. The tetramer kits include five tetramers specific for particular CD3+CD8+ cell receptors. While 5 alleles are provided for this assay, an individual's analysis may use up to 4 of these 5 tetramers. Tetramers enumerate CD3+CD8+ subsets by flow cytometry, similar to antibodies: Same specimen (whole blood), indication (identification and enumeration of lymphocyte populations), platform (flow cytometry), fluorochromes, Flow-Count Fluorospheres, and accessory reagents. The assay components include: Vials of anti-CD8 FITC, Vials of anti-CD4 PE, Vials of anti-CD3 PC5, Vials of Flow-Count Beads, Vials of lysing agent, Vials of fixative, Up to 5 vials of individual Tetramers labeled with PE, Vials of negative Tetramer labeled with PE.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the iTAg MHC Tetramer-CMV device, based on the provided text:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance:
Performance Metric | Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|
Specificity | No significant interference from common interferents. | No significant interference from common interferents (Monocytes, granulocytes, platelets, red blood cells). No significant interference from similar viral response (EBV). Tetramers were specific for identified alleles. |
Linear Range | Acceptable correlation between expected and actual values. | Deming regression analysis showed acceptable correlation. Upper limit varied by allele (119 to >300 cells/µL). |
Accuracy and Recovery | Acceptable recovery for cells/µL and % tetramer positive. | All tetramers demonstrated acceptable recovery. Overall percent recovery across three tetramers was 96%. |
Analytical Sensitivity | Defined lower limit of detection. | 1.0 cell/µL for absolute counts. 0.2% tetramer positive. |
Reproducibility | Acceptable CV ranges for intra- and inter-laboratory testing. | Intra-laboratory: 1.3% CV to 16.3% CV. |
Inter-laboratory (Beckman Coulter facilities): 0.9% CV to 13.3% CV. | ||
Inter-laboratory (Beckman Coulter + two external sites): 2.6% CV to 29.6% CV. | ||
Instrument Comparison | Comparable results and interchangeability between specified flow cytometers; acceptable correlation. | BD FACSCalibur vs. BCI EPICS-XL (Absolute Counts): Comparable results, interchangeable. Deming regression: y = 0.9697x - 0.3255, r = 0.9978. |
BD FACSCalibur vs. BCI EPICS-XL (% Tetramer Positive): Comparable results, interchangeable. Deming regression: y = 0.9800x - 0.0152, r = 0.9982. | ||
BCI FC500 vs. BCI EPICS-XL (Absolute Counts): Comparable results, interchangeable. Deming regression: y = 0.9812X + 0.1527, r = 0.9921. | ||
BCI FC500 vs. BCI EPICS-XL (% Tetramer Positive): Comparable results, interchangeable. Deming regression: y = 1.0426X - 0.0448, r = 0.995. | ||
Imprecision (Absolute Counts): Comparable between instruments, averaged |
