Intended Use

VIDAS® AFP is an automated quantitative test for use on the VIDAS instruments for the quantitative measurement of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in human serum using the ELFA technique (Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay). The VIDAS AFP assay is indicated for the quantitative measurement of Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) in serum to aid in the management of patients with nonseminomatous testicular carcinoma.

Device Story

VIDAS AFP Assay is an automated in vitro diagnostic test for human serum; utilizes Enzyme Linked Fluorescent Assay (ELFA) technology. Device uses a Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR) as both a pipette tip and solid phase for antibody binding. Process: sample mixed with alkaline phosphatase-labeled AFP antibody; antigen binds to immunoglobulins on SPR wall; unbound compounds washed away; substrate (4-Methylumbeliferyl phosphate) added; conjugate enzyme catalyzes hydrolysis into fluorescent product (4-Methyl-umbelliferone). Fluorescence measured at 450 nm; intensity proportional to AFP concentration. Instrument automatically calculates results against stored calibration curves. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Output aids clinicians in managing nonseminomatous testicular carcinoma patients by providing quantitative AFP levels.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical trial compared VIDAS AFP to predicate using 257 samples. Passing and Bablok regression (n=253) showed slope 1.128 (95% CI: 1.115-1.143) and intercept -0.530 (95% CI: -0.658 to -0.416). Non-clinical testing: precision (%CV < 6.77%), LoB (0.178 IU/mL), LoD (0.444 IU/mL), LoQ (0.444 ng/mL). No interference from hemoglobin, triglycerides, bilirubin, albumin, RF, or HAMA. No hook effect up to 242,000 IU/mL. Linearity 0.500–400.00 IU/mL.

Technological Characteristics

Automated ELFA immunoassay. Uses two mouse monoclonal AFP antibodies. Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR) technology. Fluorescence detection at 450 nm. Substrate: 4-Methylumbeliferyl phosphate. Measurement range: 0.500–400.00 IU/mL. Traceable to 1st IS 72/225 International Reference Preparation. Sample volume: 100 µL.

Indications for Use

Indicated for quantitative measurement of Alpha-Fetoprotein (AFP) in human serum to aid in the management of patients with nonseminomatous testicular carcinoma.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A tumor-associated antigen immunological test system is a device that consists of reagents used to qualitatively or quantitatively measure, by immunochemical techniques, tumor-associated antigens in serum, plasma, urine, or other body fluids. This device is intended as an aid in monitoring patients for disease progress or response to therapy or for the detection of recurrent or residual disease.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). Tumor markers must comply with the following special controls: (1) A guidance document entitled “Guidance Document for the Submission of Tumor Associated Antigen Premarket Notifications (510(k)s) to FDA,” and (2) voluntary assay performance standards issued by the National Committee on Clinical Laboratory Standards.

#### C. Predicate Device Name

#### D. Device Description

Trade Name:

The assay principle combines a one-step immunoassay sandwich method with a final fluorescent detection (ELFA). The Solid Phase Receptacle (SPR), a pipette tip-like device, serves as the solid phase as well as the pipetting device for the assay. The assay reagents are ready-to-use and pre-dispensed in the sealed reagent strips (STRs).

All of the assay steps are performed automatically by the VIDAS instrument. The sample is transferred into the well containing AFP antibody (conjugate) labeled with alkaline phosphatase. The sample/conjugate mixture is cycled in and out of the SPR several times. This operation enables the antigen to bind with the immunoglobulins fixed to the interior wall of the SPR and to the conjugate to form a sandwich. Unbound compounds are eliminated during washing steps.

Two detection steps are performed successively. During each step, the substrate (4-Methylumbeliferyl phosphate) is cycled in and out of the SPR. The conjugate enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of this substrate into a fluorescent product (4-Methyl-umbelliferone) the fluorescence of which is measured at 450 nm. The intensity of the fluorescence is proportional to the concentration of antigen present in the sample.

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

At the end of the assay, results are automatically calculated by the VIDAS instrument in relation to two calibration curves corresponding to the two detection steps stored in memory, and then printed out.

#### G. Performance Data

A summary of the non-clinical and clinical test results is presented below.

#### Precision

A panel of three samples was assayed in duplicate in 40 different runs (2 runs per day) with two reagent lots using the same VIDAS instrument at three sites. The total variability (%CV) across all sites and across all samples was < 6.77%.

#### Limits of Detection

The Limit of Blank (LoB), Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) were determined using two kit lots on two VIDAS instrument per kit lot). The results are: LoB = 0.178U/mL, LoD = 0.444/mL, and LoQ = 0.444 ng/ml.

#### Interfering Substances/Drug Interference

In the study, hemoglobin, triglcerides, bilirubin, human albumin, RF, HAMA, and potential drug interferents were added to a human serum pool containing a measured concentration of AFP. No interfering effect was detected for any of the substances tested.

#### Hook Effect

No hook effect was observed for AFP concentrations up to 242,000 IU/mL.

#### Dilution/Linearity

Samples with very high AFP results were diluted with VIDAS AFP kit Diluent to evaluate the appropriateness of the diluent and the recommended maximum dilution. The VIDAS AFP diluent may be used to dilute out-of-range samples (>400 IU/mL) up to 1/20 prior to retesting.

Two high titer natural sera and one low titer natural serum are mixed in variable proportions to yield dilutions that cover the assay's full measurement range and the medical decision level (10 IU/mL). The linearity of the assay is 0.500 - 400.00 IU/mL.

#### Clinical Trial

A clinical trial was conducted to compare the VIDAS® AFP and the TOSOH ST AIA-PACK AFP assays by testing 257 samples with both assays. A Passing and Bablok regression analysis of the 253 samples gave a slope = 1.128 (95% confidence interval = 1.115 to 1.143) and an intercept = - 0.530 (95% confidence interval = -0.658 to -0.416).
