Intended Use

The test is a rapid immunoassay for the qualitative detection of hCG in serum or urine. This test is to be used for the early detection of pregnancy.

Device Story

QuickVue One-Step hCG-Combo is a rapid, one-step lateral flow immunoassay for qualitative hCG detection in serum or urine; used for early pregnancy detection. Sample added to test cassette well; blue procedural control line appears in result window; pink-to-red test line appears if hCG is present. Device used in clinical settings by healthcare professionals. Provides immediate visual qualitative result to assist clinicians in confirming pregnancy status.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical performance established via direct comparison to a commercially available qualitative hCG test using samples from women presenting for pregnancy testing; accuracy exceeded 99%. Additional studies confirmed intra- and inter-assay precision, lot-to-lot consistency, and lack of interference from common drugs/chemicals. Physician office studies demonstrated accurate and reproducible performance by personnel with diverse educational backgrounds.

Technological Characteristics

Lateral flow immunoassay; qualitative visual readout. Detects hCG glycoprotein hormone. Form factor: Test cassette. No electronic components, software, or external energy source required.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the qualitative detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in serum or urine for the early detection of pregnancy. Intended for use by health care professionals.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for the early detection of pregnancy is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine. A human chorionic goadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy (such as an aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of treatment of persons with certain tumors or carcinomas) is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.

#### SUMMARY OF SAFETY AND EFFECTIVENESS XI.

Product: QuickVue® One-Step hCG-Combo

# Manufacturer:

Quidel Corporation 10165 McKellar Court San Diego, California 92121 U.S.A.

## Device Classification:

Dovice, QuickVue One-Step hCG-Combo, is similar to other FDA-cleared devices used for the qualitative detection of human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) in serum or urine. The test is the qualitative ustomor of pregnancy and is intended to measure hCG, a placental hormone, in serum, plasma or urine (21 CFR 862.1155). The FDA has proposed that hCG test systems be classified as Class II.

## Intended Use:

The test is a rapid immunoassay for the qualitative detection of hCG in serum or urine. This test is to be used for the early detection of pregnancy.

## Physiologic Basis for the Assay:

Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (hCG) is a glycoprotein hormone secreted by the trophoblastic cells of the developing placenta as early as 7 to 8 days after ovulation. This hormone stimulates the production of progesterone and estradiol, which are required to sustain pregnancy. In normal pregnancy, serum levels of hCG continue to rise during the first trimester to levels as high as 100,000 mlU/mL. Serum hCG is rapidly cleared in the urine and the concentration of hCG in serum is approximately equal to the concentration in urine. HCG is an excellent indicator of pregnancy early in the gestational period.

## Principle of the Test:

Serum or urine is added to the Sample Well on the Test Cassette. Shortly after addition of the sample, a blue procedural Control Line will appear in the Result Window. If hCG is present in the sample, a pink-to-red Test Line will also appear. If hCG is not present, only the blue procedural Control Line will appear.

# Safety and Effectiveness:

Numerous studies were undertaken to document the performance characteristics and the substantial equivalence of the test to other commercially available products for the qualitative detection of hCG in serum or urine. These studies included the following:

- The test was shown to be similar to other commercially distributed in vitro tests in terms of 1. features and intended use.
- 2. The test was shown to have excellent intra- and inter-assay precision.
- 3. Lot-to-lot consistency analyses showed the test to be reproducibly manufacturable.
- Common drugs, chemicals, and biologicals were shown not to interfere with the test's 4. performance.
- 5. JUsing samples obtained from women presenting for pregnancy testing, a direct comparison of the test to a commercially available qualitative hCG test was conducted. An accuracy exceeding 99% was observed.
- 6. Physicians' Office studies were conducted to demonstrate that physician office personnel with diverse educational backgrounds and work experience could perform the test accurately and reproducibly.

#### Conclusion:

These studies demonstrated the substantial equivalence of the QuickVue One-Step hCG-Combo test to currently marketed devices which have been reviewed and cleared through the 510(k) notification process. They further demonstrated the suitability of the product for use by health care professionals. Such studies are a critical element in establishing the fundamental safety and effectiveness of the product and its appropriateness for commercial distribution.
