Class 2
Intended Use
A drug of abuse assay intended for use in clinical toxicology laboratories, physicians' offices, drug-of-abuse clinics and law enforcement agencies is an in-vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative identification of amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in urine. Measurements that are obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.
Device Story
QuickScreen One Step Amphetamine Screening Test is an in-vitro diagnostic immunoassay for qualitative detection of amphetamine in urine. Device utilizes colloidal gold-labeled antibodies in a visual color sandwich immunoassay format. Sample is applied to test; presence of amphetamine results in formation of specific antibody/amphetamine complexes, visualized as color change. Used in clinical toxicology labs, physicians' offices, clinics, and law enforcement settings by professional technicians. Output is visual qualitative result (presence/absence of amphetamine). Results assist clinicians in diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and monitoring therapy. Benefits include rapid, point-of-care identification of amphetamine presence.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical evaluation included a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled amphetamine study. Testing performed by professional laboratory technicians. Results showed >97% correlation with Syva EMIT II and GC/MS methodology. Specific performance metrics reported: sensitivity 83/84 (98.8%), specificity 40/40 (100%), and accuracy 123/124 (99.2%).
Indicated for qualitative identification of amphetamine in urine for individuals suspected of amphetamine use or overdose. Intended for use in clinical toxicology labs, physicians' offices, drug-of-abuse clinics, and law enforcement agencies.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An amphetamine test system is a device intended to measure amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in plasma and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). An amphetamine test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).

## 510 (k) SUMMARY AS REQUIRED BY SECTION 807.92(C)
QuickScreenTM One Step Amphetamine Screening Test (9060) Identification:
Immunoassay for the Qualitative Detection of Amphetamine in Urine Description:
Name Of Manufacturer:
Phamatech 9265 Activity Road #112 / 113 San Diego, California 92126, USA
Intended Use: A drug of abuse assay intended for use in clinical toxicology laboratories, physicians' offices, drug-of-abuse clinics and law enforcement agencies is an in-vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative identification of amphetamine, a central nervous system stimulating drug, in urine. Measurements that are obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of amphetamine use or overdose and in monitoring levels of amphetamine to ensure appropriate therapy.
The QuickScreenTM One Step Amphetamine Test utilizes colloidal Technology: gold as the label like other commercially available immunoassays for drug of abuse (amphetamine) test kits, to qualitatively measures the presence of amphetamine by visual color sandwich one step immunoassay technology. Examples of such predicate devices include the ABI SureStep (San Diego, CA 92121)and the Syntron Bioresearch Amphetamine Test (Vista, CA 92083). All of the above devices rely on the basic immunochemical sandwich assay principle of recognition and formation of specific antibody / AMP / antibody / complexes.
The product performance characteristics of the QuickScreen TM Performance: One Step Amphetamine Test was evaluated in a clinical sample correlation study and a blind labeled amphetamine study. The results of these studies demonstrate the Phamatech QuickScreenTM One Step Amphetamine Test to be substantially equivalent to the reported performance characteristics of other commercially available tests for the qualitative detection of amphetamine in urine. Correlation studies, using clinical specimens, produced a >97% correlation when compared to the Syva EMIT II (San Jose, CA 95161) and the GC/MS methodology. Two clinical laboratory studies were performed, the Phamatech QuickScreen™ exhibited excellent sensitivity (83/84), specificity (40/40), and accuracy (123/124) in the hands of professional laboratory technicians.
Conclusion: For the reasons mentioned above, it may be concluded that the Phamatech QuickScreen™ One Step AmphetamineTest is substantially equivalent to a variety of qualitative amphetamine tests currently in commercial distribution.
