KidneyIntelX.dkd is for in-vitro diagnostic use for the determination of a KidneyIntelX.dkd Level using an algorithm to combine clinical variables (blood urea nitrogen (BUN), hemoglobin A 1c (HbAlc) and urine albumin creatinine ratio (uACR)) and the quantitative measurements of tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR-1), tumor necrosis factor receptor-2 (TNFR-2) and kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1) in human plasma employing a Meso Sector S 600 electrochemiluminescence immunoassay. It is indicated for use as an aid in assessment of the risk of progressive decline in kidney function (sustained decrease in eGFR greater than or equal to 40% lasting more than 3 months) within a period of up to 5 years following KidneyIntelX.dkd Level measurement in adult patients with type 2 diabetes and existing chronic kidney disease (defined for the purposes of this device as patients with an estimated glomerular filtration rate of 30-59 ml/min/1.73m2 or eGFR ≥ 60 ml/min/1.73m2 with albuminuria (uACR ≥ 30 mg/g)).
KidneyIntelX.dkd is not intended for screening or as a stand-alone diagnostic test.
KidneyIntelX.dkd provides the KidneyIntelX.dkd level, generated by the KidneyIntelX.dkd algorithm. The algorithm includes inputs from clinical data collected on the patient as well as component analytes measured directly by KidneyIntelX.dkd.
The three component analytes measured by KidneyIntelX.dkd directly are quantitated via a multiplex electrochemiluminescence technology for the in vitro quantitative determination the concentration of three circulating biomarkers in human EDTA plasma:
- i) soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 1 (TNFR-1),
- ii) soluble Tumor Necrosis Factor Receptor 2 (TNFR-2),
- iii) and Kidney Injury Molecule (KIM)-1.
The three measured components of the KidneyIntelX.dkd level are measured using the MESO SECTOR® S 600 instrument, by trained laboratory personnel using the assay components that includes the KidneyIntelX 96-well plate, the detection antibody, calibrator, and controls along with the Meso Scale Diagnostics diluents, blocker, wash buffer and read buffer.
A sandwich immunoassay is used to measure KIM-1, TNFR-1, and TNFR-2. The plate wells are precoated with goat polyclonal antibodies to KIM-1, and mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to TNFR-1 and TNFR-2. After treating the wells with a blocking solution, the specimens and controls are incubated in the wells then washed. The analytes are quantified via electrochemiluminescence, with secondary detection antibodies (goat polyclonal antibodies to KIM-1, and mouse monoclonal antibodies specific to TNFR-1 and TNFR-2) covalently linked to electrochemiluminescent labels. The MESO SECTOR® S 600A instrument measures the light emitted via charged-coupled device (CCD) camera.
A software with an artificial intelligence derived algorithm provides a risk assessment score by combining the biomarker results from the assay (TNFR-1, TNFR-2, and KIM-1) and a set of clinical data, which are provided by a patient's physician via a test requisition form (urine albumin creatinine ratio [uACR], hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c], and Blood Urea Nitrogen [BUN]). The algorithm generates a risk level (Low, Moderate, or High) for progressive decline in kidney function, defined as sustained decrease (<40% of baseline value) in eGFR. The KidneyIntelX.dkd algorithm was modeled using machine learning (Random Forest) to identify and analyze risk factors for kidney disease progression.
The software is installed and maintained in the KidneyIntelX Portal, a cloud-based system. The biomarker results and clinical data set are manually inputted into the KidneyIntelX Portal determining the KidneyIntelX.dkd level. A KidneyIntelX.dkd Test Report containing the KidneyIntelX.dkd level is provided to the ordering physician. The KidneyIntelX.dkd level is to be used in conjunction with clinical information as an aid in assessing progressive decline in kidney function in T2D patients with DKD.

Study Information:
-
A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance: Included above.
-
Sample sized used for the test set and the data provenance:
- Sample Size: N = 657 patients.
- Data Provenance: Retrospective analysis of biobanked samples. Sourced from a single biorepository site that collected from 10 clinical sites in the United States (implied by references to US population and demographics like "American Indian/Alaskan Native", "Black/African American", "White", "Hispanic"). The study included up to 5 years of data per sample.
-
Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts:
- The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set. The ground truth ("progressive decline in kidney function" and "end-stage kidney disease") is defined by clinical outcomes (e.g., sustained decrease in eGFR, eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73 m2), rather than expert interpretation of images or other subjective data.
-
Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set:
- The document does not describe an adjudication method. Since the ground truth is defined by objective clinical measurements (eGFR decline, ESKD), there would typically be no need for expert adjudication.
-
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, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This device is an in-vitro diagnostic test generating a risk score, not an AI-assisted diagnostic imaging tool that would typically involve human readers.
-
If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done:
- Yes, a standalone performance study was done. The clinical study evaluates the KidneyIntelX.dkd algorithm's ability to predict outcomes in a cohort of patients without human intervention in its scoring process. The algorithm generates a risk level (Low, Moderate, High) which is then correlated with observed clinical outcomes. The outputs are intended to be used in conjunction with other clinical findings, but the generation of the score itself is standalone.
-
The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.):
- Outcomes data. The ground truth was defined by time to the first occurrence of a composite endpoint:
- Sustained decrease in eGFR greater than or equal to 40% lasting more than 3 months.
- Reaching end-stage kidney disease (sustained eGFR <15 ml/min/1.73 m2).
- Outcomes data. The ground truth was defined by time to the first occurrence of a composite endpoint:
-
The sample size for the training set:
- The document does not explicitly state the sample size for the training set. It mentions that the "KidneyIntelX.dkd algorithm was modeled using machine learning (Random Forest) to identify and analyze risk factors for kidney disease progression," but details on the training set used for this modeling are absent from the provided text. The N=657 is described as the "clinical validation" set.
-
How the ground truth for the training set was established:
- The document does not describe how the ground truth for the training set was established. Given the nature of the clinical validation ground truth (outcomes data), it is highly probable that similar outcomes-based ground truth was used for training, but this is not explicitly stated.
