Measurement of free light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis. It must be used in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use. The FLC Lambda kit is intended for the quantification of Lambda free light chains in human serum from adults with an Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) procedure. Measurement of free light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis. It must be used in conjunction with other laboratory and clinical findings. For In Vitro Diagnostic Use.

Device Story

The FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits are ELISA-based in vitro diagnostic assays for quantifying free light chains in human serum. The device uses a sandwich ELISA format: patient samples are incubated in microplate wells coated with specific polyclonal rabbit anti-human Kappa or Lambda free light chain capture antibodies. After washing, wells are incubated with HRP-conjugated polyclonal rabbit anti-human light chain detection antibodies. Following a second wash, a peroxidase substrate is added, and the enzymatic reaction is stopped with an acidic solution. Optical density is measured via absorbance spectrophotometry at 450 nm. Concentrations are calculated using a calibration curve generated from five calibrator levels analyzed on the same microplate. The device is intended for use by laboratory professionals to aid in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma and AL amyloidosis. Results are used by clinicians alongside other diagnostic findings to inform patient management. The device provides quantitative measurements that assist in identifying abnormal light chain levels associated with these conditions.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical validation study (n=510) included patients with multiple myeloma (MM), AL amyloidosis, and non-myeloma conditions. For MM (n=366), sensitivity was 96.6% (95% CI: 94.0-99.3) and specificity was 85.1% (95% CI: 79.4-89.5). For AL amyloidosis (n=333), sensitivity was 91.0% (95% CI: 86.3-95.7) and specificity was 85.1% (95% CI: 79.4-89.5). Performance compared favorably to the predicate device.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

An immunoglobulin (light chain specific) immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques both kappa and lambda types of light chain portions of immunoglobulin molecules in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. In some disease states, an excess of light chains are produced by the antibody-forming cells. These free light chains, unassociated with gamma globulin molecules, can be found in a patient's body fluids and tissues. Measurement of the various amounts of the different types of light chains aids in the diagnosis of multiple myeloma (cancer of antibody-forming cells), lymphocytic neoplasms (cancer of lymphoid tissue), Waldenstrom's macroglobulinemia (increased production of large immunoglobulins), and connective tissue diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis or systemic lupus erythematosus.

The results for concentration (mg/L) of Kappa and Lambda free light chains were analyzed using statistical tools recommended by CLSI. Three linearity panels at 1/1000 dilution were performed based on 3 different patient sample pools. | FLC Assay | Range<br>Tested<br>(mg/L) | Linear<br>Regression | 95% CI Slope | 95%<br>CI<br>Y-Intercept | Claimed<br>linear<br>range | |------------------|---------------------------|----------------------|------------------|--------------------------|----------------------------| | Kappa study N°1 | [4.4; 81.7] | Y=1.009x -0.2967 | [0.9534; 1.065] | [-0.88; 0.29] | | | Kappa study N°2 | [4.5; 79.9] | Y=1.016x -0.2014 | [0.967; 1.065] | [-0.72; 0.32] | [4.5mg/L;<br>76.2mg/L] | | Kappa study N°3 | [3.5; 76.2] | $Y=0.9332x + 0.4952$ | [0.8635; 1,003] | [-0.11; 1.10] | | | Lambda study N°1 | [3.8; 74.1] | Y=1.046x -1.537 | [0.9389; 1.153] | [-2.52; -0.55] | | | Lambda study N°2 | [3.3; 77.7] | Y=0.9561x -0.62 | [0.9299; 0.9823] | [-0.84; -0.40] | [3.8mg/L;<br>66.8mg/L] | | Lambda study N°3 | [3.5; 66.8] | Y=0.9611x -0.31 | [0.8948; 1.027] | [-0.87; 0.25] | | {12}------------------------------------------------ The highest of the lower limit and the lowest of the higher limit found in the 3 linearity panels were taken. The linearity of FLC Kappa kit at initial dilution 1/1000 is demonstrated between 4.5 mg/L and 76.2 ma/L. The linearity of FLC Lambda kit at initial dilution 1/1000 is demonstrated between 3.8 mg/L and 66.8 mq/L. # c) Limit of Blank (LOB) / Limit of Detection (LOD) / Limit of Quantitation (LOQ) The determination of the limit of detection (LOD) and of the limit of quantitation (LOQ) of the FLC Kappa kit was evaluated in a study based on the Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP17-A2 guideline "Evaluation of Detection Capability for Clinical Laboratory Measurement Procedures; Approved Guideline - Second Edition". Due to the blank removal, the limit of blank (LOB) is considered as being 0 mg/L. The LOD was determined by assaying 5 samples with low Kappa free light chains concentration: they were tested in two runs of four replicates over the course of seven days using two reagent lots (a total of 56 replicates per sample for each lot). The precision profile analysis was used to calculate the LOD. Since LOD values for the 2 lots are below the calibrator 1 values, the LOD value is considered as equal to the LOQ value. The LOQ was determined by assaying 5 samples with low Kappa free light chains concentration: they were tested in two runs of four replicates over the course of seven days using two reagent lots (a total of 56 replicates per sample for each lot). The LoQ was defined to be the lowest concentration level that meets the within-laboratory imprecision of < 20% for each lot. Since LOQ values for the 2 lots are below the linearity study range, the LOQ value is considered to be equal to the concentration of the lower limit sample with the highest value among the 3 linearity panels. The claimed LoB/LoQ for the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits are as follows: | Kit | LOB | LOD | LOQ | |------------|--------|----------|----------| | FLC Kappa | 0 mg/L | 0.8 mg/L | 4.5 mg/L | | FLC Lambda | 0 mg/L | 1.1 mg/L | 3.8 mg/L | #### d) Hook Effect (Antigen Excess) No interference driven by the Hook effect was observed with the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits. # e) Traceability In the absence of an international reference standard, the calibration of the assay is traceable to an internally assigned master calibrator. # f) Analytical specificity # Biological Interferences: The common interfering factors with the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits (conjugated bilirubin, unconjugated bilirubin, total protein, hemoglobin, triglycerides and rheumatoid factor) were evaluated in studies based on the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP7-A2 guideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry; Approved Guideline - Second Edition" and the {13}------------------------------------------------ Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI -USA) EP07, 3rd Edition quideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry". The results are summarized below. No interference with the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits was detected due to the serum sample's high concentration of the following interfering factors tested at levels equal to the concentrations listed below: | Endogenous (Biological) | FLC Kappa | FLC Lambda | |-------------------------|------------|------------| | Conjugated bilirubin | 66.6 mg/dL | 66.6 mg/dL | | Unconjugated bilirubin | 40 mg/dL | 40 mg/dL | | Total Protein | 150 g/L | 150 g/L | | Hemoglobin | 10 g/L | 10 g/L | | Triglycerides | 20 g/L | 20 g/L | | Rheumatoid Factor | 2000 IU/mL | 250 IU/mL | #### Drug Interferences: The common interfering factors with the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits (melphalan, dexamethazon daratumumab, bortezomib, lenalidomide, carfilzomib, isatuximab) were evaluated in studies based on the Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP7-A2 guideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry; Approved Guideline - Second Edition" and Clinical Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI - USA) EP07, 3rd Edition guideline "Interference Testing in Clinical Chemistry". The results are summarized below. No interference with the FLC Lambda kit was detected due to the serum sample's high concentration of the following interfering factors tested at levels equal to the concentrations listed below: | Drug | FLC Kappa | FLC Lambda | |--------------|-----------|------------| | Melphalan | 4 mg/L | 4 mg/L | | Dexamethazon | 12 mg/L | 12 mg/L | | Daratumumab | 1 g/L | 1 g/L | | Bortezomib | 2 mg/L | 2 mg/L | | Lenalidomide | 4 mg/L | 4 mg/L | | Pomalidomide | 1 mg/L | 1 mg/L | | Carfilzomib | 1 mg/L | 1 mg/L | | Isatuximab | 1 g/L | 1 g/L | # g) Stability Shelf-life, in-use studies were conducted using the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits and FLC controls Level 1 and Level 2. All results met stability acceptance criteria and product stability claims as listed in the tables below: # Stability of Kit (FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda) {14}------------------------------------------------ | Kit | Shelf Life | In-use | |------------|----------------------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | FLC Kappa | 9 months at 2 - 8 °C | 5 uses within 1 month and 15 cumulative hours maximum at room temperature (19-25°C) | | FLC Lambda | 9 months at 2 - 8 °C | 5 uses within 1 month and 15 cumulative hours maximum at room temperature (19-25°C) | # h) Expected values/ Reference range The reference range intervals for the FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits were performed following the CLSI EP28-A3c, "Defining, Establishing, and Verifying Reference Intervals in the Clinical Laboratory'. The studies were performed using a total of 238 apparently healthy adults (US-population). For Kappa free light chain concentration and Lambda free light chain concentration, the reference intervals were calculated nonparametrically and represent the central 95% range of the population, with a 95% confidence level: Kappa free light chain concentration: 6.4 - 17.4 mg/L Lambda free light chain concentration: 8.4 - 21.8 mg/L For the [Kappa free light chain] / [Lambda free light chain] ratio, the reference interval represents 100% of the samples: [Kappa free light chain] / [Lambda free light chain] ratio: 0.46 - 1.51 The Package insert states:" It is recommended each laboratory establish its own reference values." #### i) Comparison studies Serum samples were tested with the Sebia FLC Kappa and FLC Lambda kits and results were compared to the predicate device.
