Intended Use

The Methadone Enzyme Immunoassav is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay with a 300 ng/mL cutoff. The assay is intended for use in the qualitative and semi-quantitative analyses of methadone in human urine. The assay is designed for professional use with a number of automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternative chemical method must be used to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatorv method. Clinical consideration and professional judgement should be applied to any drug-ofabuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are used.

Device Story

Ready-to-use liquid reagent homogeneous enzyme immunoassay; detects methadone in human urine. Principle: competition between G6PDH-labeled methadone and free drug in sample for fixed antibody; absence of drug allows antibody binding to labeled drug, decreasing enzyme activity. Enzyme activity measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm via NAD to NADH conversion. Used in clinical laboratories with automated chemistry analyzers; operated by laboratory technicians/professionals. Output: preliminary qualitative or semi-quantitative methadone concentration. Results require confirmation by GC/MS; clinical judgment required for interpretation. Benefits: rapid screening for methadone presence in urine samples.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluated precision (within-run and run-to-run), sensitivity (15 ng/mL), accuracy, analytical recovery, and specificity. Accuracy demonstrated 100% agreement with GC/MS for positive and negative samples. Analytical recovery showed 96.6% at 225 ng/mL and 93.7% at 375 ng/mL. Precision metrics (SD, %CV) provided for qualitative and semi-quantitative modes.

Technological Characteristics

Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay; liquid reagent. Principle: G6PDH enzyme-labeled competitive immunoassay. Detection: spectrophotometric at 340 nm. Form factor: ready-to-use liquid reagent for automated clinical chemistry analyzers. Connectivity: compatible with automated laboratory instrumentation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis of methadone in human urine for professional use in clinical settings. Provides preliminary analytical results requiring confirmation by GC/MS.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A methadone test system is a device intended to measure methadone, an addictive narcotic pain-relieving drug, in serum and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methadone use or overdose and to determine compliance with regulations in methadone maintenance treatment.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A methadone test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).

## 510(k) Summary of Safety and Effectiveness

This summary of 510(k) safety and effectiveness information is being submitted in accordance with the requirements of SMDA 1990 and 21 CFR 807.92.

#### Introduction

According to the requirements of 21 CFR 807.92, the following information provides sufficient detail to understand the basis for a determination of substantial equivalence.

#### Device Name and Classification

| Classification Name: | Methadone test system, Class II, DJR (91 Toxicology), 21CFR 862.3620 |
|----------------------|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| Common Name: | Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay for the determination of methadone levels in urine. |
| Proprietary Name: | None |

#### Legally Marketed Predicate Device(s)

Lin-Zhi International, Inc.' Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay is substantially equivalent to the Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay (By DRI/Microgenics Corp.), cleared under premarket notification K972526.

LZI's Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay is identical or similar to its predicate in terms of intended use, method principle, device components, and clinical performance.

#### Device Description

LZI's Methadone Enzyme Immunoassav is a ready-to-use. liquid reagent, homogeneous enzyme immunoassay. The assay uses specific antibody that can detect methadone in human urine with minimal cross-reactivity to various, common prescription drugs and abused drugs.

{1}------------------------------------------------

The assay is based on competition between methadone labeled with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) enzyme and free drug from the urine sample for a fixed amount of specific antibody. In the absence of free drug from the urine sample the specific antibody binds to the drug labeled with G6PDH enzyme causing a decrease in enzyme activity. The G6PDH enzyme activity is determined spectrophotometrically at 340 nm by measuring its ability to covert nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH.

#### Intended Use

The Methadone Enzyme Immunoassav is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay with a 300 ng/mL cutoff. The assay is intended for use in the qualitative and semi-quantitative analyses of methadone in human urine.

## Comparison to Predicate Device

LZI's Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay is substantially equivalent to other products in commercially distribution intended for similar use. Most notably it is substantially equivalent to the currently, commercially marketed Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay (K972526) by DRI/Microgenics Corporation.

The following table compares LZI's Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay with the predicate device. Methadone Enzyme Immunoassay by DRI/Microgenics Corp.

Similarities:

- Both assays are for qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of methadone . in human urine.
- Both assays use the same method principle, and device components. .
- Both assays use 300 ng/mL as cutoff level. ●
