Intended Use
The DiaSorin Molecular Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Direct Gen II assay is intended for use on the LIAISON® MDX instrument for the in vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of influenza A virus, influenza B virus, and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swabs (NPS) from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors. This test is intended for use as an aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral infections in humans. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus or RSV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. Performance characteristics for influenza A were established with clinical specimens collected during the 2010/2011 influenza season when 2009 H1N1 influenza and H3N2 were the predominant influenza A viruses in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to the state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted in these cases unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens. DiaSorin Molecular’s Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Positive Control Pack is intended to be used as a control with the Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Direct kit and the Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Direct kit and the Simplexa™ Flu A/B & RSV Direct Gen II kit for use on the LIAISON® MDX instrument. This control is not intended for use with other assays or systems.
Device Story
The Simplexa Flu A/B & RSV Direct Gen II is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the qualitative detection and differentiation of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV RNA. The device utilizes nasopharyngeal swab samples processed on the LIAISON MDX instrument. It employs nucleic acid amplification technology to detect viral RNA. The system provides qualitative results to clinicians to aid in the differential diagnosis of respiratory viral infections. It is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. The output assists healthcare providers in patient management and treatment decisions, though negative results do not rule out infection. The device includes a positive control pack for quality assurance.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided in the document; the submission relies on substantial equivalence to a previously cleared predicate device.
Technological Characteristics
Real-time RT-PCR; targets Flu A (matrix), Flu B (matrix), RSV (M gene). Uses bi-functional fluorescent probe-primers. Instrument: LIAISON MDX with LIAISON MDX Studio Software. Consumable: Direct Amplification Disc (DAD) with microfluidic channels and laser-activated valves. Detection: 4-channel optical system (FAM, JOE, CR610, Q670). Sterilization: N/A (reagents). Connectivity: Standalone instrument.
Indications for Use
Indicated for human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory tract infection to aid in the differential diagnosis of influenza A, influenza B, and RSV viral infections using nasopharyngeal swab specimens.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A respiratory viral panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple viral nucleic acids extracted from human respiratory specimens or viral culture. The detection and identification of a specific viral nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory viral infection when used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. The device is intended for detection and identification of a combination of the following viruses:(1) Influenza A and Influenza B; (2) Influenza A subtype H1 and Influenza A subtype H3; (3) Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype B; (4) Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, and Parainfluenza 3 virus; (5) Human Metapneumovirus; (6) Rhinovirus; and (7) Adenovirus.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls are:(1) FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Respiratory Viral Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay;”
(2) For a device that detects and identifies Human Metapneumovirus, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) Using Nucleic Acid Assays;” and
(3) For a device that detects and differentiates Influenza A subtype H1 and subtype H3, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Detection and Differentiation of Influenza A Virus Subtypes Using Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assays.” See § 866.1(e) for the availability of these guidance documents.

## Dear Sharon Young:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part
