The Access TPO Antibody assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of thyroperoxidase antibody (TPOAb) levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.
The detection of TPOAb is an aid in the diagnosis of thyroid autoimmune disorders.
The Access TPO Antibody assay is a paramagnetic particle, chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of thyroperoxidase antibody (TPO Ab) levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.
The Access TPO Antibody Calibrators are intended to calibrate the Access TPO Antibody assay for the quantitative determination of TPO Antibody levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems.
The Access TPO Antibody assay is a sequential two-step immunoenzymatic ("sandwich") assay. A sample is added to a reaction vessel with paramagnetic particles coated with thyroperoxidase protein. The serum or plasma TPO Ab binds to the thyroperoxidase. After incubation, materials bound to the solid phase are held in a magnetic field while unbound materials are washed away. Then, the chemiluminescent substrate is added to the vessel and light generated by the reaction is measured with a luminometer. The light production is directly proportional to the concentration of analyte in the sample. Analyte concentration is automatically determined from a stored calibration.

| Product Codes,
Regulation Numbers | JZO, 21 CFR 866.5870
Immunoassay for the in vitro quantitative determination of antibodies to thyroglobulin in human serum and plasma. The anti-Tg autoantibodies determination is used as an aid in the detection of autoimmune thyroid diseases in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings.
The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on the cobas e 411 immunoassay analyzer.
The Elecsys Anti-Tg immunoassay makes use of a competitive test principle using biotinylated human antigen and monoclonal human anti-Tg antibodies labeled with a ruthenium complex. The Elecsys Anti-Tg immunoassay is intended for the quantitative determination of antibodies to thyroglobulin in human serum and plasma. It is intended for use on the cobas e immunoassay analyzers.

The provided text describes the performance evaluation of the Elecsys Anti-Tg immunoassay, a diagnostic device, and its acceptance criteria. Here's a breakdown of the requested information based on the text:
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly present a single table labeled "Acceptance Criteria" with corresponding "Reported Device Performance" in a direct side-by-side format. Instead, it describes various performance evaluations and states whether "All predefined acceptance criteria was met" for each. However, we can reconstruct a table based on the provided details for the non-clinical performance evaluation.
Performance Characteristic | Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|---|

2. Sample sizes used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
- Test Set Sample Sizes:
- Precision: Not explicitly stated, but includes "Human serum 1-5" and "PC THYRO1-2" (presumably replicates for each, as per CLSI EP05-A3 which requires sufficient replicates).
- Lot-to-lot Reproducibility: "three reagent lots" (number of samples per lot not specified).
- Analytical Sensitivity (LoB, LoD, LoQ): Not explicitly stated, determined according to CLSI EP17-A2 which has sample size recommendations.
- Linearity: "Six dilution series" using "native human serum samples and sample pools" (number of samples/pools not specified).
- Endogenous Interferences: Not explicitly stated per substance, but mentions "Six endogenous substances."
- Analytical Specificity/Cross-Reactivity: Not explicitly stated (for anti-TPO).
- Exogenous Interferences: "17 commonly and 14 specially used pharmaceutical compounds" (number of samples not stated).
- Sample Matrix Comparison: "blood from 13 donors" (tested across serum, K2-EDTA, K3-EDTA plasma, and serum separation tubes from 3 manufacturers).
- Method Comparison to Predicate: "total of 129 human serum samples."
- Data Provenance: The document does not specify the country of origin for the data or whether the studies were retrospective or prospective. It is a "510(k) Summary" for an FDA submission, reporting on laboratory performance studies. Given they are "non-clinical performance evaluation," these are typically controlled laboratory studies.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
This device is an in-vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay. The ground truth for such devices is established through analytical testing against reference materials, established methods, and clinical samples with known characteristics, not typically by expert consensus in the same way as an imaging AI. The "ground truth" here is the precise concentration or presence/absence of the analyte (thyroglobulin antibodies) as determined by the study's reference method or expected values for standards/controls.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
Not applicable for this type of IVD analytical performance study. Adjudication methods like 2+1 or 3+1 are common in clinical trials or imaging studies where expert readers interpret results, but not for direct quantitative measurements from an immunoassay. The acceptance criteria are based on statistical analysis of quantitative results (e.g., precision, linearity, recovery, regression).
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
Not applicable. This is an immunoassay for determining antibody levels, not an imaging device or an AI intended to assist human readers. Hence, no MRMC study was performed, and human reader improvement with AI assistance is not relevant to this device's evaluation.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This entire non-clinical performance evaluation section (4. NON-CLINICAL PERFORMANCE EVALUATION
) describes the standalone performance of the Elecsys Anti-Tg immunoassay (a device, not an AI algorithm). The measurements are performed by the "cobas e 411 immunoassay analyzer," which acts as the "algorithm" or automated system. There's no human "in the loop" for the direct measurement results themselves, though human operators are involved in running the tests and interpreting the results in a clinical setting.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The ground truth for the analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, sensitivity, interferences, stability) is based on:
- CLSI guidelines: The studies adhere to specific Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) guidelines (e.g., EP05-A3, EP17-A2, EP06-Ed2), which define how such analytical characteristics are determined using reference materials, spiked samples, and statistical methods.
- Reference Standards/Materials: Implied in sections like "Traceability/Standardization" against the NIBSC 65/93 Standard, and the use of calibrators (Anti-Tg CalSet) and controls (PreciControl ThyroAB).
- Known Sample Characteristics: For linearity, samples with varying known concentrations are typically used. For interference studies, samples spiked with known interferents are used.
- Predicate Device Comparison: For method comparison, the predicate device's results serve as a comparative reference.
8. The sample size for the training set
Not applicable in the context of an immunoassay. This device is an in-vitro diagnostic test kit (reagents) used on an existing analyzer. It does not involve a "training set" in the machine learning sense. The "development" or "training" of such a diagnostic involves optimizing the chemical and biological components of the assay (reagents, antibodies, detection method) and calibrating the system across a range of known concentrations.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
As there is no "training set" in the AI/machine learning sense, this question is not applicable. The development process for an immunoassay involves extensive research and development to create reagents that accurately quantify the target analyte. Calibration is done using reference materials with assigned values, and the assay's performance characteristics (as detailed in section 4) are then rigorously validated.

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
- Precision/Reproducibility:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO on Phadia 250/2500/5000: 8 samples, each with 252 replicate determinations (21 runs x 3 instruments x 7 runs each over 7 days).
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be internal lab studies.
- Linearity/Assay Reportable Range:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO on Phadia 250/2500/5000: 6-7 patient serum samples.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be internal lab studies.
- Detection Limit (LoB/LoD):
- EliA anti-TG/TPO on Phadia 250/2500/5000: Four analyte-free samples and four low antibody concentration blood donor samples. Each measured in 36 replicates (6 replicates x 6 runs). Total of 8 samples x 36 replicates = 288 measurements.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be internal lab studies using blood donors.
- Endogenous Interference:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO: Three serum samples (one negative, one near cut-off, one high positive). Each spiked with different interfering substances or blanks and analyzed in triplicates. Runs repeated twice.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be internal lab studies.
- Reference Sera:
- EliA anti-TG: 8 samples from CAP.
- EliA anti-TPO: 8 samples from CAP and 12 samples from UK-NEQAS.
- Data Provenance: External proficiency testing programs (CAP, UK-NEQAS).
- Carry-over:
- Phadia 250: A serum sample (diluted 1:2 and 1:20). Tested with EliA Ro (another assay) to demonstrate instrument's general carry-over performance.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be internal lab studies.
- Assay Cut-off / Expected Values:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO: 604 apparently healthy blood donor samples.
- Data Provenance: Caucasian, African American, Hispanic, and Asian individuals, almost equally distributed by sex and age. (Source country not specified but "blood donor samples" are typically collected prospectively for such studies).
- Method Comparison and Clinical Sensitivity/Specificity:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO: 718 serum samples from patients with various thyroid and autoimmune conditions (Graves' disease, autoimmune thyroiditis, non-AI thyroid disease, connective tissue disease, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, primary biliary cirrhosis, HIV, HCV, HBV, other infection, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, hypergamma-globulinemia, systemic lupus erythematosus, Sjögren's syndrome, celiac disease, type 1 diabetes mellitus, type II diabetes mellitus, pregnant women of all trimesters, pre-eclampsia, miscarriage, thyroid cancer, myasthenia gravis, pernicious anemia, chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis, sub-acute thyroiditis, multi-nodular goiter).
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated (e.g., country of origin, retrospective/prospective).
- Matrix Comparison:
- EliA anti-TG/TPO: 57 patients from whom serum, lithium heparin plasma, and EDTA plasma were collected.
- Data Provenance: Not explicitly stated, implied to be patient samples.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
The document does not specify the use of "experts" in the context of diagnostic performance studies. For immunoassay devices like these, ground truth is typically established by:
- Reference Methods: Comparison to a legally marketed predicate device (VarelisA TG Antibodies, VarelisA TPO Antibodies) as seen in the method comparison study.
- Clinical Diagnosis: For sensitivity and specificity, samples are categorized based on "diagnosis" (e.g., Graves' disease, autoimmune thyroiditis). This implies a clinical ground truth, but the details of how these diagnoses were established (e.g., by how many clinicians, their specialties, or experience levels) are not provided.
- External Reference Sera: For reference sera evaluation, targets are established by external institutions like CAP and UK-NEQAS, which rely on peer groups or provider definitions.
Therefore, there's no mention of a specific number of experts or their qualifications establishing ground truth in the way one might see for image-based diagnostics.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not describe an explicit adjudication method for establishing ground truth, such as 2+1 or 3+1 expert consensus. Instead, it relies on established clinical diagnoses for sensitivity/specificity studies and predicate device results for method comparison.
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
No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This device is an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) immunoassay, not an AI-assisted diagnostic tool for human readers. Its performance is evaluated intrinsically and in comparison to a predicate device, not in terms of human reader improvement.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
The device is a standalone immunoassay system (EliA anti-TG Immunoassay and EliA anti-TPO Immunoassay run on Phadia 250/2500/5000 instruments). Its performance is inherently "standalone" in the sense of being an automated laboratory test without direct human interpretive input at the point of result generation. Results are quantitative values that clinicians interpret. Therefore, the entire analytical and clinical performance section describes the device's standalone performance.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
- Clinical Diagnosis: For clinical sensitivity and specificity studies, samples were linked to known diagnoses such as "Graves' Disease" and "Autoimmune Thyroiditis." The basis for these diagnoses (e.g., pathology, clinical outcomes, or expert opinion) is not detailed beyond being "clinically defined."
- Predicate Device: For method comparison, the reference standard was the legally marketed predicate device (VarelisA TG Antibodies and VarelisA TPO Antibodies).
- External Program Targets: For reference sera, the ground truth was the targets set by CAP (College of American Pathologists) and UK-NEQAS (United Kingdom National External Quality Assessment Service). These targets are often established by peer consensus or by the program providers.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document describes studies for validation of performance characteristics but does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning or AI development. Since these are immunoassays, they are based on biochemical reactions and calibration rather than a machine learning model that requires training data. The calibration process uses specific calibrator materials.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established
As this is an immunoassay and not an AI/ML device, the concept of a "training set" with established ground truth doesn't apply in the same way. The device is calibrated using:
- EliA IgG Calibrator Strips: Human IgG at defined concentrations (0, 4, 10, 20, 100, 600 µq/L). These calibrators are traceable to the International Reference Preparation (IRP) 67/86 of Human Serum Immunoglobulins A, G and M from WHO. New batches are compared to a secondary standard or the IRP directly to ensure correct concentration. This traceability constitutes the "ground truth" for calibration.
- EliA IgG Curve Control Strips: Human IgG (20 µg/L) for monitoring calibration curve performance.
The "ground truth" for the calibrators is therefore established through established international reference standards and their traceability.

- LoD: 5 TSI serum samples, tested in 4 replicates using 3 reagent kit lots for 3 days on 3 systems (total 36 observations per sample). Data provenance not specified.
- Analytical Specificity (Interference): Three serum pools (for endogenous interferents), HAMA positive serum, RF positive serum, and six potential biological interferent samples. Data provenance not specified.
- Method Comparison: 811 serum samples from patients with Graves' disease, other thyroid or autoantibody diseases. Specimens tested at two external sites and one internal site for the IMMULITE 2000 TSI assay, and at one external site for the Thyretain device. Data provenance not explicitly stated, but implies mixed sources (internal/external, likely retrospective patient samples).
- Matrix Comparison: Graves' Disease sets of matched serum and plasma samples (clot tube, lithium heparin, SST, K2-EDTA). Sample size not specified. Data provenance not specified.
- Clinical Sensitivity and Specificity: 361 treated and untreated hyperthyroid Graves' disease patients and 404 individuals with other thyroid or autoimmune diseases. Data provenance not specified (likely retrospective clinical samples).
- Reference Range: 842 serum samples from apparently healthy males (n=151), non-pregnant females (n=155), first trimester (n=169), second trimester (n=191), and third trimester (n=176) pregnant donors. Data provenance not specified.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for any of the test sets. For example, for clinical sensitivity and specificity, it refers to "Graves' Disease Diagnosis" and "other thyroid or autoimmune diseases" but does not detail how these diagnoses were definitively established or by whom. Similarly, for the method comparison, it refers to patient samples for Graves' disease or other thyroid/autoantibody diseases without detailing expert adjudication of these conditions.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
The document does not describe any specific adjudication method for establishing ground truth diagnoses for the patient samples used in the studies. The diagnoses are simply stated as existing, implying they were pre-determined or established through typical clinical practice, rather than through a separate expert adjudication process for the study.
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
No, a multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This is an immunoassay device, not an imaging AI device that involves human readers interpreting cases. The comparison study was a "Method Comparison" between the new Immulite 2000 TSI assay and a predicate immunoassay device (Thyretain TSI Reporter BioAssay), analyzing patient samples.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Yes, the studies presented are all standalone validations of the Immulite 2000 TSI assay system. It is an automated immunoassay for in vitro diagnostic use, meaning it provides results directly from patient samples without human interpretation of images or other complex data requiring "human-in-the-loop" decision-making. The performance characteristics (precision, linearity, detection limits, clinical sensitivity/specificity, etc.) reflect the algorithm/device's performance alone.
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)
The ground truth for the clinical studies (clinical sensitivity/specificity, method comparison) appears to be clinical diagnosis of Graves' disease or other thyroid/autoimmune diseases. For analytical performance studies (precision, linearity, LoB, LoD, interference), the ground truth is based on spiking known concentrations, using negative samples, or established reference standards like the NIBSC standard.
8. The sample size for the training set
The document does not explicitly mention a "training set" in the context of machine learning. This is a traditional immunoassay, not an AI device that typically involves distinct training and test sets in the same manner. The studies describe validation sets, not training sets for model development.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
As there is no distinct "training set" in the context of an AI/machine learning model as understood in typical AI/ML submissions, this question is not directly applicable. For traditional assays, calibrators are used to establish the measurement and are themselves calibrated against reference materials (e.g., NIBSC standard 08/204 for the Immulite 2000 TSI assay).

Trade/Device Name: Access Thyroglobulin Antibody II Assay Regulation Number: 21 CFR §866.5870
The Access Thyroglobulin Antibody II assay is a paramagnetic chemiluminescent immunoassay for the quantitative determination of thyroglobulin antibody levels in human serum and plasma using the Access Immunoassay Systems. The measurement of thyroid autoantibodies may aid in the diagnosis of Hashimoto's disease, nontoxic goiter, and Graves' disease.
The Access Thyroglobulin Antibody II reagents, Thyroglobulin Antibody II calibrators, and the Access Immunoassay analyzers comprise the Access lmmunoassay System for the quantitative determination of thyroglobulin antibody in human serum and plasma.
Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study information for the Access Thyroglobulin Antibody II for use on the Access Immunoassay Systems, as extracted from the provided 510(k) summary:
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The acceptance criteria are implied by the "Summary of Studies" section, which describes the performance characteristics that were measured and deemed acceptable for demonstrating substantial equivalence. Exact numerical acceptance thresholds for each test (e.g., "imprecision must be less than X%") are not explicitly stated as distinct criteria, but the reported performance values are presented as evidence of meeting acceptable levels.

Reporter Classification name: System, Test, Thyroid Autoantibody Product Code: JZO Regulation: 21 CFR § 866.5870
------------------|------------------------------------------------|
| Regulation Number: | 21 CFR §866.5870
The Thyretain ™ TSI Reporter BioAssay is intended for the qualitative detection in serum of thyroid stimulating autoantibodies to the thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) receptors (TSHRs) on the thyroid. The detection of these stimulating autoantibodies, in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings, may be useful as an aid in the differential diagnosis of patients with Graves' disease (GD).
The number of wells tested per Positive, Reference and Negative control has been reduced from three to two for each. The number of wells tested per patient specimen has been reduced from three to two.
The provided submission (K092229) is a special 510(k) for a device modification; therefore, it primarily focuses on demonstrating that the device, post-modification, remains substantially equivalent to its predicate device. This type of submission usually doesn't include new, large-scale clinical studies with specific acceptance criteria as would be found in a De Novo or PMAs. Instead, it relies on bridging data to show the modification doesn't negatively impact performance.
Here's an analysis based on the provided text:
Device: Thyretain™ TSI Reporter BioAssay (Modified)
Predicate Device: Thyretain™ TSI Reporter BioAssay (K083391)
Modification: Reduction of the number of wells tested per Positive, Reference, and Negative control from three to two. Reduction of wells tested per patient specimen from three to two.
1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance
The document does not explicitly state formal acceptance criteria in a quantitative manner (e.g., "sensitivity must be >90%"). Instead, the performance assessment aims to demonstrate that the modified device remains equivalent to the predicate, particularly in its non-clinical performance.
Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
---|---|
No significant negative impact on device performance due to modification. | "Based on the analysis of the study site data (see Attachment 2) the modification poses little risk." |
Maintain the intended use and diagnostic accuracy. | Intent to maintain the same intended use as the predicate device. The FMEA indicated little risk from the modification. |
Note: "Attachment 2" which would contain the detailed study site data is not provided in the input, so specific quantitative performance metrics like sensitivity, specificity, or agreement with the predicate are not available in this summary. The assessment focuses on risk analysis.
2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)
The document refers to "study site data" in "Attachment 2". However, the details of this data, including sample size, provenance (country of origin), and whether it was retrospective or prospective, are not provided in the given text extract.
3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)
This information is not provided in the given text extract. Given this is a modification to an in vitro diagnostic (IVD) device, the ground truth would likely refer to established diagnostic methods or clinical outcomes, rather than expert interpretation of images.
4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set
This information is not provided in the given text extract. It is unlikely to be relevant for this type of IVD modification, which assesses analytical performance rather than interpretation by human readers.
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
No. A MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. This is an in vitro diagnostic device (a bioassay) for detecting autoantibodies, not an imaging device that requires human interpretation or AI assistance.
6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
This question is not applicable in the context of this device. The Thyretain™ TSI Reporter BioAssay is a laboratory assay for detecting antibodies, not an algorithm. The "performance" refers to the analytical performance of the assay itself. The submission is not about an algorithm, but a modification to the assay's procedure (number of wells).
7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The submission is for an immunoassay. The ground truth for such an assay would typically be established by:
- Reference methods: Comparison to established, clinically validated assays for the same analyte.
- Clinical diagnosis: Correlation with the clinical diagnosis of Graves' disease (GD), which would involve a combination of clinical symptoms, other laboratory findings, and potentially outcomes data over time.
- Pathology: Less likely to be the primary ground truth for an antibody assay, but could be part of the broader clinical picture for Graves' disease.
The provided text does not explicitly state the type of ground truth used for the "study site data" referenced.
8. The sample size for the training set
This information is not provided in the given text extract. For an IVD assay modification, there isn't typically a "training set" in the machine learning sense. Any data used to validate the modified procedure would be considered a "test set" or verification/validation data.
9. How the ground truth for the training set was established
As there is no "training set" in the context of this IVD device, this question is not applicable. Any ground truth for validation samples would be established by methods similar to those described in point 7.
