### Intended Use of the Device:
Immunoassay for the in vitro quantitative determination of cardiac troponin T (cTnT) in lithium heparin plasma. The immunoassay is intended to aid in the diagnosis of myocardial infarction.
The electrochemluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on the cobas e immunoassay analyzers.
### Device Description
The Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 STAT Immunoassay is a one-step sandwich immunoassay on the cobas e 601 and cobas e 801 analyzer. The assay uses streptavidin-coated microparticles, a biotinylated monoclonal anti-cardiac Troponin T-specific antibody, a monoclonal anti-cardiac
{5}------------------------------------------------
Troponin T-specific antibody labeled with a ruthenium complex and electrochemiluminescence detection. Results are determined using a calibration curve that is generated specifically on each instrument by a 2-point calibration and a master curve (6-point calibration) provided with the reagent bar code.
### Changes to Reagent Composition
The following changes were implemented to the reagent to block the potential interference of biotin with the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay. Briefly, we took a two-step approach by adding an antibody to bind free biotin in the sample, and changing the linker on the biotinylated capture antibodv.
For the neutralization of free biotin in Li-Heparin plasma. Roche developed an antibody, which binds to free biotin. The antibodies are specific for free biotin and do not bind to or interact with the biotin-linker conjugates.
In the updated biotinylated antibody conjugate, the distance between biotin and the reactive MEA group is elongated by a PEG spacer, which provides the coupled biotin more flexibility for the interaction with the Streptavidin matrix. No change is made to the antibody (immunologically reactive component) which still recognizes the same epitope.
# Summary of Analytical Performance
### Precision/Reproducibility
### Repeatability and Intermediate Precision
Precision measurements were conducted to evaluate repeatability (within-run precision) and the intermediate precision (within-laboratory precision) according to the CLSI guideline EP5-A3.
The precision of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay was evaluated on one cobas e 801 analyzer at one internal site with three reagent lots over 21 days. Six human samples (sample pools) were run in randomized order on the analyzer. Native Li-Heparin plasma samples (≤ 100 ng/L cTnT) as well as spiked samples (> 100 ng/L cTnT) were used. Two replicates of each human Li-Heparin plasma sample and two levels of PreciControl Troponin were tested in two runs per day for 21 days. The analysis did not differentiate between runs conducted on the same day. therefore, the precision estimates reported below are for 21 days, 1 run/day, and 4 replicates. Calibration was performed once on day 1 according to the method sheet. No gel separator tubes were used in this experiment. Results from one representative lot of the three lots tested are described in the table below. Within laboratory precision includes within-run and between-day variability.

### Reproducibility
Measurements were conducted to evaluate reproducibility according to the CLSI guideline EPS-A3.
A reproducibility panel consisting of five human Li-Heparin plasma samples and two levels of PreciControl Troponin was measured in five-fold determinations for 5 days on three cobas e 801 analyzers at three different sites (one internal and two external sites). The five native or spiked Li-Heparin plasma samples used were generated from sample pools. Samples ≤ 100 ng/L were native. For the higher concentrations, samples were spiked.
One cobas e 801 with a unique serial number per site was used with one reagent lot spanning one calibration cycle as recommended in the Method Sheet. Calibration was performed once on day one according to the method sheet. Repeatability, intermediate precision and reproducibility were calculated according to CLSI EP05-A3. Reproducibility includes repeatability, between day, and between site variance components.

### Method Comparisons
Excellent comparison of the assay to the predicate device Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 STAT is needed in order to ensure a transfer of the Roche clinical data from the existing and cleared assay to the biotin update.
To this end, method comparison studies were performed between one lot of the predicate device on the cobas e 601 and three lots of the Troponin T Gen 5 assay on the cobas e 801.
A method comparison (MC) study was performed to compare the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 immunoassay on the cobas e 801 (Y-axis) with the predicate device (X-axis) on the cobas e 601.
One set of samples was tested with one lot (predicate device, one internal site) and three different lots with the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 on the cobas e 801 (one internal site) as follows:
One set of 299 samples was tested with each reagent; at least 264 samples were detected within the measuring range. One lot of predicate device was taken as the reference value used for comparison to the values generated with each of the three lots of Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 on the cobas e 801.

### Limit of Blank (LoB)
LoB of the Elecsy Troponin T Gen 5 assay on the cobas e 801 was determined according to CLSI EP17-A2.
Limit of Blank determines the highest observed measurement values for samples free of analyte. The Limit of Blank was determined as the 95th percentile of measurements of blank samples.
The distribution of values for the analyte-free Li-Heparin plasma sample was determined with three reagent lots on one cobas e 801 analyzer with six run over at least three days. The sample was measured in ten-fold determinations in each run.
In summary, 60 measurements were collected for the determination of LoB. The data were evaluated according to EP 17-A2, chapter 5.3.3.1 as the linear interpolation of the 57th and 58th ranked observation. The sample used was an analyte free native lithium-heparin sample.
### Conclusion:
All lots met the predetermined acceptance criterion of ≤ 2.5 ng/L. The LoB claim in the labeling will be set to 2.5 ng/L.
### Limit of Detection (LoD) (CLSI EP17-A2)
LoD of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay on the cobas e 801 was determined according to CLSI EP17-A2. The LoD determines the lower limit for samples with analyte. The LoD was determined as the lowest amount of analyte in a sample that can be detected with a 95% probability.
{10}------------------------------------------------
### Methods
The distribution of values for five low-analyte Li-Heparin plasma samples were determined using three reagent lots on one cobas e 801 instrument.
Five low-analyte Li-Heparin plasma samples were measured in two-fold determination, six runs over at least three days. In total. 60 determinations per reagent lot were performed.
In addition, we did testing for LoD on 3 different instruments by running samples on two additional e 801 instruments. Pooled estimate of the precision (SD total) of the five samples was calculated. The LoD was established according to the following EP17-A2 calculation:
LoD = LoB + 1.653 x SD total (of low analyte samples)
Conclusion: All lots met the predetermined acceptance criterion of ≤ 3 ng/L. The LoD claim in the labeling will be set to 3 ng/L.
# Limit of Quantitation (CLSI EP17-A2)
The LoQ of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay was determined on the cobas e 801 analyzer according to CLSI Guideline EP17-A2.
LoQ determines the lowest amount of analyte that can be quantitatively determined with stated accuracy and stated experimental conditions. The LoQ was determined as the lowest concentration of analyte which can be quantified with a CV (intermediate precision) of no more than 20%.
## Methods
Functional sensitivity has been used as a detection capability performance attribute for the TnT Gen 5 Assay. It represents the measurand concentration associated with a desired within-lab (intermediate) precision, based upon a precision profile experiment in the low-end region of the measuring interval. This performance attribute, however, simply represents a limiting for the limit of quantitation (LoQ) in which the acceptable accuracy goal is based solely upon a precision requirement. This is suggested by CLSI EP17-A2 for troponin.
The performance goal was defined as intermediate precision equal to 20% CV.
Ten native Li-Heparin plasma pools were prepared across the low-end of the measuring range of the assay. In addition, two controls were included. Data were collected using three lots over 21 days with two runs per day. Estimates of the mean and within-lab precision were calculated for each sample for each reagent lot.
Total CV is based on the total variance, calculated as the sum of the variance components from day, run and within run (21 * 2 * 2 = 84 measurements). The square root from the total variance was divided by the grand mean times 100 is the result for the total CV (%). The calculation of
{11}------------------------------------------------
the variance components is based on a strict hierarchical model with random factors according to CLSI EP5-A3.
The functional relationship between CV and concentration is modeled according the suggestion in EP17 with:
%CV = A*conc B
To simplify the fit of the data, the CV and the mean are log-transformed. "Log" here refers to the natural logarithm. After log-transformation, a linear regression using least squares can be performed and the model looks like this:
## log(%CV) = Ã + B * log(concentration)
A = log(A) With
Results are visually assessed and the goodness of fit of the data is evaluated.
The concentration where a 20% CV is achieved is calculated by:
log(20)-7 Concentration = exp (10) B
### Conclusion:
All lots met the predetermined acceptance criterion of 6 ng/L. The LoQ claim in the labeling will be set to 6 ng/L.
### Linearity/Assay Reportable Range
The linearity study was conducted to demonstrate the measurements across the claimed measuring range for each parameter to prove linearity. The study was performed according to CLSI guideline EP6-A.
Three high analyte Li-Heparin plasma samples from pools spiked with recombinant Troponin T were diluted with three low analyte Li-Heparin plasma samples from native pools. At least sixteen concentrations (15 dilutions) throughout the measuring range were prepared.
Samples were assayed in 3-fold determinations within a single run using one lot. Data from one representative sample is shown below
In the first step, a linearity check was performed with a first order (linear) regression analysis and then with higher order models (quadratic and cubic).
Data were analyzed using linear, quadratic and cubic order least square regression analysis according to CLSI protocol EP6-A.

y = a + b1 * x + b2 * x2 (second order polynomial fit [quadratic])
y = a + b1 * x + b2 * x2 + b3 * x3 (third order polynomial fit [cubic])
### Parameters of regression line
Intercept 2.94 ng/L, slope 0.966
The linear range is from 6 to 13766 ng/L
The coefficient b1 in the first order model is significant at the 5% level and no improvement of the goodness-of-fit for higher order models are observed. Therefore, it is used for the calculation of deviation from linearity.
#### Conclusions
The deviation from linearity is within specifications.
### High Dose Hook Effect
#### Methods
The high dose hook effect of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay was assessed on the cobas e 801 immunoassay analyzer.
Two low analyte Li-Heparin plasma samples from single donors were spiked with recombinant Troponin T to achieve high Troponin T concentrations. For each sample, a dilution series was performed using human Li-Heparin plasma, which contained no Troponin T.
The hook concentration reported corresponds to the analyte concentration with a signal corresponding to at least 10% above the highest master calibrator.
### Conclusion:
No High dose Hook effect was seen up to 111326 ng/L
### Human Anti-Mouse Antibodies (HAMA)
#### Methods
The effect of the presence of human anti-mouse-antibodies on the Troponin T Gen 5 assay was assessed on the cobas e 801 analyzer. Two different samples with low levels of Troponin T were spiked with potential interfering HAMA and tested in duplicate. The HAMA interferents used
{13}------------------------------------------------
for the interference testing have been quantified externally with a commercial assay and vielded a HAMA concentration of 644 ug/L.
### Conclusion:
Specifications were met for the two native Li-Heparin plasma samples. A maximum of 10% deviation from the expected concentration was seen for a HAMA concentration of 644 uz/L (80%). In the labeling the testing of the specified HAMA concentration of 322 ug/L is reported.
### Endogenous Interference Studies
The purpose of this study was to evaluate endogenous substances for potential interference with the parameters measured on the cobas e 801.
### Methods
The effect on quantitation of analyte in the presence of endogenous interfering substances using the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay was determined on the cobas e 801 immunoassay analyzer for the following seven interfering substances: Intralipid, biotin, bilirubin, hemoglobin, rheumatoid factors, cholesterol and human serum albumin.
Three native Li-Heparin plasma samples (one low, one medium and one high concentration of Troponin T) were used to prepare dilution series. The series were tested with one lot.
Since biotin is of particular interest, we tested this kind of potential interference with three lots.
The following samples were used in this study:
Low sample: Native Li-Heparin plasma pool with analyte concentration of ~20 ng/L near the cut-off
Medium sample: Li-Heparin plasma pool of native samples with analyte concentration of ~100 ng/L in the slightly elevated part of the measuring range
High sample: Li-Heparin plasma pool of native samples with analyte concentration of ~900 ng/L in the elevated part of the measuring range
One part of each sample pool (low, medium, high) is spiked with the interfering endogenous substance and is used as "interference pool". Another part of the same sample pool is spiked with the same volume of the solvent of the interfering endogenous substance (without interfering substance) and is used as the related "dilution pool".
A series of nine dilution steps was prepared by mixing the interference pools and the related dilution pools.
Each sample was measured in 3-fold determination. For each interferent concentration level, the recovery compared to the "dilution pool" (without interfering substance) was calculated. For 3fold determinations, recovery calculation is based on the mean value.
Biotin concentrations of the samples were:50, 100, 500, 1000, 1250, 1500, 1750, 2000, 2500, 3600 ng/mL

Note that patients with compromised renal function may have higher concentrations of biotin in their circulation.
Some studies have shown that serum concentrations of biotin can reach up to 355 ng/mL within the first hour after biotin ingestion for subjects consuming supplements of 20 mg of biotin per dayand up to 1160 ng/mL for subjects after a single dose of 300 mg biotin.
In addition, the following commonly used pharmaceuticals and cardiac specific drugs were tested (using cTnT concentrations of approximately 20 ng/L and 9000 ng/L). No interference with the assay was found.
### Conclusions
No interference was seen from the potential interferents at the levels tabulated below.

### Exogenous Interference - Drugs
The purpose of this study was to evaluate drugs for potential interference with the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 assay on the cobas e 801.
### Methods
Seventeen common pharmaceutical compounds were spiked into Li-Heparin plasma samples.
Native Li-Heparin plasma samples were used as the low sample was spiked with recombinant Troponin T.
The analyte concentrations were approximately 20 ng/L and 9000 ng/L.
In addition. 22 cardiac drugs were assessed by spiking into human Li-Heparin plasma samples. The analyte concentrations were approximately 19 ng/L and 8200 ng/L.
Li-Heparin plasma samples were divided into aliquots and spiked with the potential interferents. The reference sample without interferent was spiked with the respective amount of solvent only.
Testing was performed in 3-fold determination with one reagent lot in one run on two cobas e 801 analyzer.
Recovery was calculated based on the mean values of the 3-fold determinations.
### Conclusion:
The specifications were met for all exogenous interfering substances tested.
### Calibration and Traceability
This method has been standardized against the Elecsys Troponin T STAT assay (Mat# 04660307, 4th generation). This in turn was originally standardized against the Enzymun Test Troponin T (CARDIAC T) method.

### Clinical Data -- APACE Study
### Diagnostic sensitivity and specificity
APACE Trial: The Advantageous Predictors of Acute Coronary Syndromes Evaluation (APACE) study is an international, multicenter prospective trial of acute chest pain patients that is currently continuing enrollment. (ClinicalTrials.gov number NCT00470587). The sites enrolled all patients who presented to the emergency department with symptoms of chest pain and angina pectoris. Peak symptoms had to have occurred within the last 12 hours (onset of symptoms reported ranged from 0 to 72 hours). The only exclusion criterion were kidney failure that required dialysis and age less than 18 years. Diagnosis of MI was done through an independent adjudication committee which included cardiologists. This included 60 day followup information on each subject. In the case of a disagreement, a third independent cardiologist was used as the tie breaker. The subjects were diagnosed with acute MI by using the diagnostic criteria described in the ACC/ESC/AHA guidelines including ECG changes, symptoms characteristic for ischemia and elevations of cardiac troponin. 1074 subjects were enrolled with 3023 available samples. There were 188 adjudicated diagnoses of MI.
The clinical performance (clinical sensitivity, clinical specificity, positive predictive value [PPV] and negative predictive value [NPV]) of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 STAT assay in the diagnosis of MI in this trial is shown below using a single 99th percentile cutoff 19 ng/L for all patients:

At least one of the following criteria should be met: symptoms of ischemia, ECG changes (ST and/or Q wave), left bundle branch block, imaging evidence of viable myocardium loss, wall motion abnormality or intracoronary thrombus to clarify the origin of myocardial injury.
In a second multicenter study, a total of 1679 subjects presenting emergently with chest pain were enrolled. The trial excluded chest pain subjects with an MI within the last 3 months,
{21}------------------------------------------------
subjects with surgery or hospitalization within the last 3 months, subjects with revascularization or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) within the last 3 months, subjects with an established acute non-cardiac primary illness and subjects transferred from another hospital or facility. These excluded subjects could be expected to have elevated troponin concentrations that would likely reflect cardiac comorbidities besides MI, and vield positive results; therefore specificity estimates and the positive values of this trial may be overestimated. Within this population, there were 173 adjudicated Mls. 1675 subjects were evaluated on the cobas e 601 analyzer. Final diagnoses were determined by an independent adjudication committee which included cardiologists and emergency medicine physicians using the universal guidelines.
The clinical performance of the Elecsys Troponin T Gen 5 STAT assay in the diagnosis of MI in this trial is shown below using a single 99th percentile cutoff (19 ng/L) for all patients and sexspecific cutoffs. The data are presented as timed draws (minutes) since presentation:
