Intended Use
The ARK EDDP Assay is an immunoassay intended for the qualitative and/or semiquantitative determination of EDDP in human urine at cutoff concentrations of 100 ng/mL and 300 ng/mL. The assay is intended for use in laboratories with automated clinical chemistry analyzers. This in vitro diagnostic device is for prescription use only. The semiquantitative mode is for the purpose of (1) enabling laboratories to determine an appropriate dilution of the specimen for confirmation by a confirmatory method, such as Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) or Liquid Chromatography/tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), or (2) permitting laboratories to establish quality control procedures. The ARK EDDP Assay provides only a preliminary analytical test result. A more specific alternative chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed positive analytical result. Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) or Liquid Chromatography/tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be exercised with any drug test result, particularly when the preliminary test result is positive.
Device Story
ARK EDDP Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay for detecting EDDP in human urine. Input: urine specimen. Principle: competitive binding between EDDP in specimen and EDDP-labeled recombinant G6PDH enzyme for antibody binding sites. Output: absorbance change measured spectrophotometrically at 340 nm; enzyme activity is directly proportional to EDDP concentration. Used in clinical laboratories on automated chemistry analyzers by laboratory personnel. Provides preliminary results; requires confirmation by GC/MS or LC-MS/MS. Clinical decision-making relies on confirmed results; aids in identifying EDDP presence for clinical or quality control purposes.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision evaluated per CLSI EP05-A3 (N=160 per level). Analytical recovery (95.1-107.9%) and specificity tested against structurally related and unrelated compounds. Interference studies (endogenous substances, pH, specific gravity) showed no interference. Method comparison performed on 109 clinical urine specimens against GC/MS reference method, showing high concordance at 100 ng/mL and 300 ng/mL cutoffs.
Technological Characteristics
Homogeneous enzyme immunoassay. Reagents: R1 (anti-EDDP rabbit antibody with substrate) and R2 (EDDP derivative labeled with bacterial recombinant G6PDH). Detection: spectrophotometric absorbance at 340 nm. Platform: automated clinical chemistry analyzers. Storage: 2-8°C. Preservative: sodium azide.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative and/or semiquantitative determination of EDDP in human urine at 100 ng/mL and 300 ng/mL cutoffs. Intended for prescription use in clinical laboratories using automated chemistry analyzers.
Regulatory Classification

{4}------------------------------------------------
## 807.92 (a)(4): Device Description
The ARK EDDP Assay is a homogeneous enzyme immunoassay technique used for the analysis of EDDP in human urine. The assay is based on competition between EDDP in the specimen and EDDP labeled with recombinant glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (rG6PDH) for antibody binding sites. As the latter binds antibody, enzyme activity decreases. In the presence of EDDP from the specimen, enzyme activity increases and is directly related to the EDDP concentration. Active enzyme converts nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to NADH in the presence of glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), resulting in an absorbance change that is measured spectrophotometrically. Endogenous G6PDH does not interfere because the coenzyme NAD functions only with the bacterial enzyme used in the assay.
The ARK EDDP Assay consists of reagents R1 anti-EDDP rabbit antibody with substrate and R2 EDDP derivative labeled with bacterial recombinant G6PDH enzyme.

## 807.92 (b)(1) and 807.92 (b)(2): Brief Description of Nonclinical and Clinical Data
The following performance characteristics were obtained on the Beckman Coulter AU680® automated clinical chemistry analyzer.
#### Precision
Precision studies were performed using CLSI EP05-A3 as a guideline. Drug-free, negative human urine was supplemented with EDDP (0.0 to 200.0 ng/mL for the 100 ng/mL cutoff and 0.0 to 600.0 for the 300 ng/mL cutoff). Each level was assayed in quadruplicate twice a day for 20 days (N=160) and evaluated qualitatively and semiquantitatively. Results are summarized in the tables below.

## Analytical Recovery
Recovery across the assay range was assessed using the semiquantitative mode. Drug-free, negative human urine was supplemented with EDDP (1100.0 ng/mL) and dilutions were made proportionally with drug-free human urine. EDDP concentrations ranged from 50.0 to 1000.0 ng/mL. At each level, percentage recovery was calculated based on the mean concentration (N=6) compared to the expected concentration. Results are summarized in the table below.
| Theoretical<br>Concentration<br>(ng/mL) | Mean<br>Concentration<br>(ng/mL) | Recovery<br>(%) |
|-----------------------------------------|----------------------------------|-----------------|

{9}------------------------------------------------
#### Analytical Specificity
All compounds tested were added to drug-free, negative human urine and tested with the ARK EDDP Assay in both qualitative and semiquantitative modes.
The cross-reactivity of the following structurally related compounds was evaluated by spiking these compounds into drug-free, negative human urine to determine the minimum concentration that would give a positive result approximately equivalent to the 100 ng/mL and 300 ng/mL EDDP cutoffs. These concentrations were used to determine the percent cross-reactivity according to the formula:
% Cross-reactivity = (Cutoff concentration / Lowest concentration of cross-reactant causing a positive result) X 100
For compounds that did not produce a positive result, the highest concentration tested was used to calculate percent cross-reactivity.
| Compound | Concentration<br>Tested<br>(ng/mL) | Semiquantitative<br>Mode Result<br>(Positive/Negative) | Qualitative Mode<br>Result<br>(Positive/Negative) | Cross-reactivity<br>(%) |

## Method Comparison
A total of one hundred nine (109) unaltered clinical human urine specimens that are not individually identifiable were analyzed for EDDP at the two cutoff levels with the ARK EDDP Assay in both qualitative and semiquantitative modes and the results were compared to GC/MS. The GC/MS confirmatory method was performed by a licensed reference laboratory. Results are summarized in the tables below.
