Device Class
Class 1
Intended Use
For in vitro use in verifying the calibration range of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System when used for the measurement of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).
Device Story
VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products CEA Range Verifiers are used to verify the calibration range of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System. The system utilizes luminescence for quantitative and semi-quantitative determination of analytes in human body fluids (serum, plasma, urine) using coated microwells. The verifiers consist of low and high levels of a buffered bovine serum albumin matrix spiked with human-origin CEA. The system is operated by laboratory personnel in a clinical setting. The verifiers are used alongside reagent packs and calibrators to ensure the accuracy of the VITROS ECi instrumentation. The output allows clinicians to confirm that the system's measurement range is performing within specifications, supporting reliable CEA testing for patient management.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is based on physical properties and intended use comparisons with commercially available reagents.
Technological Characteristics
Matrix: buffered bovine serum albumin spiked with human-origin CEA. Levels: low and high. Principle: luminescence-based immunoassay verification. Connectivity: dedicated for use with VITROS ECi Immunodiagnostic System. Form factor: liquid reagent.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro verification of the calibration range of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System for the measurement of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) in human body fluids.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.

#### 2. Device Name
Trade or Proprietary Name: VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products CEA Range Verifiers Common Name: Range Verifiers
Classification Name: VITROS Range verifiers for use in verifying the calibration range of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System when used for the measurement of immunoassays which include CEA.
#### 3. Predicate Device
The VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products CEA Range Verifiers are substantially equivalent to VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products FSH Range Verifiers (K973517).
#### 4. Device Description
The VITROS Immunodiagnostic System uses luminescence as the signal in the quantitative and semi-quantitative determination of selected analytes in human body fluids, commonly serum, plasma and urine. Coated microwells are used as the solid phase separation system.
The system is comprised of three main elements:
- 1. The VITROS ECi Immunodiagnostic Products (in this case VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products RangeVerifiers, which are used along with VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Reagent Pack and VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Calibrators by the VITROS ECi Immunodiagnostic System to perform a VITROS assay).
{1}------------------------------------------------
### 510(k) Summary, Continued.
- 2. The VITROS ECi Immunodiagnostic System instrumentation, which provides automated use of the immunoassay kits. The VITROS ECi System was cleared for market by a separate 510(k) pre-market notification (K962919).
- 3. Common reagents used by the VITROS ECi System in each assay. The VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Signal Reagent and VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Universal Wash Reagent were cleared as part of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Total T3 510(k) pre-market notification (K964310).
The VITROS ECi System and common reagents are dedicated specifically only for use with the VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products range of immunoassay products.
### 5. Device Intended Use
For in vitro use in verifying the calibration range of the VITROS Immunodiagnostic System when used for the measurement of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA).
### 6. Comparison to Predicate Device
The VITROS Immunodiagnostic Products Range Verifiers are substantially equivalent to VITROS FSH Range Verifiers (predicate device), which was approved by FDA (K973517) for IVD use.
Table 1 lists the similarities and differences of the device characteristics between the VITROS CEA Range Verifiers with the predicate device, VITROS FSH Range Verifiers.

Dear Ms. Zavertnik:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we 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). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.
