Intended Use
OPUS PSA is an in vitro fluorogenic enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in serum. OPUS PSA is an adjunctive test used as an aid in the monitoring of prostate cancer patients. OPUS PSA is intended for use with the OPUS analyzers.
Device Story
OPUS PSA is an in vitro fluorogenic enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) used with OPUS analyzers to quantify prostate specific antigen (PSA) in human serum. The device utilizes a sandwich immunoassay principle with a goat polyclonal enzyme-labeled antibody to detect PSA. It is intended for use in clinical laboratory settings for monitoring prostate cancer patients. The system provides quantitative results that assist healthcare providers in managing patient treatment and disease progression. The device uses a six-level calibrator system and a tri-level control for quality assurance.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision: Intra-assay %CV 5.1-5.8%; Inter-assay %CV 6.6-7.0%. Accuracy by recovery: 97-107%. Accuracy by correlation: Compared to a commercial immunoassay (n=145, range 0.443-90.7 ng/ml), correlation coefficient r=0.98, slope=0.94, y-intercept=0.36.
Technological Characteristics
Fluorogenic enzyme immunoassay (ELISA). Sandwich immunoassay principle. Uses goat polyclonal enzyme-labeled antibody. Six-level calibrator system. Tri-level control. Designed for use with OPUS immunoassay analyzers.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in human serum to aid in the monitoring of patients with prostate cancer. Intended for prescription use.
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.

2. Device Name/ Classification:
OPUS PSA: Tumor Associated Antigen Immunological Test
Classification Number: class II (classification number has not been assigned)
3. Identification of the legally marketed device:
Hybritech Tandem-E PSA
4. Proposed Device Description:
OPUS PSA is a set of reagents intended to be used together with the OPUS immunoassay analyzers for the quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in human serum.
5. Proposed Device Intended Use:
OPUS PSA is an in vitro fluorogenic enzyme immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitative measurement of prostate specific antigen (PSA) in serum. OPUS PSA is an adjunctive test used as an aid in the monitoring of prostate cancer patients. OPUS PSA is intended for use with the OPUS analyzers.

6. Medical device to which equivalence is claimed and comparison information:
The OPUS PSA assay is substantially equivalent in intended use to results obtained using the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA. The Hybritech Tandem-E PSA, like the proposed product, employs the principle of two site or sandwich immunoassay. Both use a labeled antibody for the quantitative measurement of PSA in human serum. The OPUS PSA and the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA are based on a six level calibrator system.
The OPUS PSA differs from the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA in that the enzyme labeled antibody is a mouse monoclonal in the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA, while the enzyme labeled antibody is a goat polyclonal in the OPUS PSA test. Also, the OPUS PSA includes a tri-level control, where as the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA test includes a bi-level control. Also, the Hybritech Tandem-E PSA is intended as an aid in the detection of prostate cancer as well as an aid in management of patients with prostate cancer, while the OPUS PSA is only intended for the management of patients with prostate cancer.
7. Proposed Device Performance Characteristics:
Precision
Intra-assay precision was determined by the evaluation of three levels of control material in replicates of twenty (20) each. %CV ranged from 5.1 to 5.8
Inter-assay precision was determined by the evaluation of three levels of control material in duplicate, assayed over a ten day period to total 40 replicates. %CV ranged from 6.6 to 7.0
Accuracy by Recovery
Recovery was determined by making four dilutions of an elevated PSA patient sample into a normal human serum pool. The samples were assayed using OPUS PSA in replicates of three. Percent recovery ranged from 97 to 107%
Accuracy by Correlation
OPUS PSA was compared to a commercially available immunoassay by evaluation of 145 serum samples ranging from 0.443 to 90.7 ng/ml. A correlation coefficient of 0.98 was obtained with a y-intercept value of 0.36 and a slope of 0.94.
