## Indications for Use

The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System is intended for the qualitative detection of IgG class antibodies to human parvovirus B19 in human serum including women of childbearing age where there is a suspicion of exposure to human parvovirus B19. The test is also for all symptomatic patients as an aid in the diagnosis of fifth disease (erythema infectiosum). This test is for in vitro diagnostic use only.

## Device Story

The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System is an in vitro diagnostic assay used in clinical laboratories to detect IgG antibodies against parvovirus B19 in human serum. The device utilizes an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) format. Microwell plates are coated with recombinant parvovirus B19 viral proteins. Patient serum is diluted and incubated in the wells; if specific IgG is present, it binds to the immobilized antigen. After washing, a peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-human IgG is added, followed by a substrate solution. The resulting color change is measured photometrically. The intensity of the color is proportional to the concentration of IgG antibodies in the sample. Results are used by clinicians as an aid in diagnosing parvovirus B19 infection, particularly in pregnant women to assess exposure risk and in symptomatic patients with fifth disease. The test helps guide clinical management, such as determining the need for fetal monitoring in pregnant patients.

## Clinical Evidence

Clinical performance evaluated in 3,210 patients across three sites. Study 1 (n=210 pregnant women) showed 99.1% PPA (95% CI: 97.4-100%) and 96.9% NPA (95% CI: 93.5-100%). Study 2 (n=3,000 routine clinical samples) showed 99.3% PPA (95% CI: 98.9-99.7%) and 96.6% NPA (95% CI: 95.5-97.7%). Discrepant samples were analyzed via immunoblot. Performance was also validated against a 21-member commercial performance panel. Bench testing confirmed LOD of 5-7 IU/mL, no significant interference from common substances (albumin, bilirubin, cholesterol, hemoglobin, lipids, triglycerides), and no cross-reactivity with other common infectious agents (Rubella, CMV, HSV, etc.).

## Technological Characteristics

Indirect ELISA format. Microwell plates coated with recombinant parvovirus B19 viral proteins. Detection via peroxidase-conjugated goat anti-human IgG and photometric measurement of substrate hydrolysis. Stable for 18 months at 2-8°C. No specific ASTM material standards cited.

The warnings and precautions can be found in the labeling for the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System.

V. DEVICE DESCRIPTION

The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System is designed to detect IgG class antibodies to parvovirus B19 in human sera. The test has been developed following a typical indirect, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) format and includes the key components; the ELISA microwell plate, the conjugate and the controls/calibrator. The microwell strips are coated with recombinant parvovirus B19 viral proteins as capture antigen. The test procedure involves three incubation steps:

PMA P150045: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data

{1}

1. Test sera are diluted with the Sample Diluent provided in the kit. During sample incubation, any antigen specific IgG antibody in the sample will bind to the immobilized antigen. The plate is washed to remove unbound antibody and other serum components.
2. Peroxidase conjugated goat anti-human IgG (Conjugate) is added to the wells and the plate is then incubated. The Conjugate reacts with IgG antibody immobilized on the solid phase in step 1. The wells are washed to remove unreacted Conjugate.
3. The microwells containing immobilized Conjugate are incubated with peroxidase Substrate Solution. Hydrolysis of the Substrate by peroxidase produces a color change. After a period of time, the reaction is stopped and the color intensity of the solution is measured photometrically. The color intensity of the solution depends upon the antibody concentration in the original test sample.

VI. ALTERNATIVE PRACTICES AND PROCEDURES

For childhood infections, diagnosis can be largely made based upon the clinical presentation. For pregnant women, serology tests such as ELISA, indirect fluorescent assays (IFA) or western blot are the primary means of determining the mother's serological status. In the case of fetal infections, ultrasound; more specifically, Middle Cerebral Artery Peak Systolic Velocity (MCA-PSV) is a non-invasive means for determining the degree of fetal anemia.

VII. MARKETING HISTORY

There has been no prior commercial distribution of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System.

VIII. POTENTIAL ADVERSE EFFECTS OF THE DEVICE ON HEALTH

Failure of the product to perform as intended, or errors in the use of the product, may lead to a false result and improper patient management. A false negative result may cause spreading of the virus to other individuals through contact and thus present a public health risk. Parvovirus B19 infection is generally self-limiting and benign for most healthy children but may pose a threat for high-risk populations such as immunocompromised patients or those with hemolytic anemia. The virus can also spread through blood and, therefore, a pregnant woman is at risk of passing the virus to the fetus causing serious complications. A false reactive result is not considered a public health risk except that the person may be isolated and monitored for a short period of time.

IX. SUMMARY OF NONCLINICAL STUDIES

1. IgG Class Specificity of the Assay

The objective of this study was to demonstrate that the assay is designed to detect only human IgG antibody. Sample Diluent that was spiked with 10% goat anti-human IgG was used to remove IgG from five different IgG positive samples. The anti-

PMA P150045: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data

{2}

human IgG was effective in reducing the signal by at least 90% from the samples showing that the ZEUS IgG ELISA specifically detects IgG antibody.

2. Limits of Detection

Testing with serial dilutions of the Second WHO Parvovirus B19 International Standard revealed that the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus IgG Test System is able to detect 5-6 IU/mL at the assay cutoff, and can detect 97% of replicates above the assay cutoff when assayed at 7 IU/mL. Thus, the LOD for this assay is determined to be 5-7 IU/mL of the WHO International Standard.

3. Potential Interfering Substances

A study was performed to assess the potential impact of commonly encountered interfering substances on the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System. Three serum samples, negative, low positive, and high positive for parvovirus B19 IgG antibodies were spiked with the interferents as shown below.

Table 1: Interferent Concentrations Tested

|  Interferent | High | Low | Matrix  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
|  Albumin (Human) | 50 mg/mL | 35 mg/mL | Serum  |
|  Bilirubin | 0.15 mg/mL | 0.01 mg/mL | Serum-10% PBS  |
|  Cholesterol | 2.5 mg/mL | 1.5 mg/mL | Serum-10% Ethanol  |
|  Hemoglobin | 200 mg/mL | 100 mg/mL | Serum  |
|  Intralipids | 7.5mg/mL | 3 mg/mL | Serum  |
|  Triglycerides | 5mg/mL | 1.5 mg/mL | Serum-10% Ethanol  |

For positive samples, the recovery values ranged from 80-110% for all interfering substances tested. All positive samples remained positive, and all negative samples remained negative, regardless of the interferent or the concentration of the interferent. This study indicates that the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG ELISA Test System is not at significant risk for positive or negative influence from the interferents tested.

4. Potential Cross Reactive Antibodies

A study was performed to investigate if IgG antibody to other infectious agents or associated with other disease states might cross react with the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System. Of the 107 specimens tested, none tested positive with the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System.

7. Transportation Study

Two ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System kits each were shipped from the Zeus Scientific facility in Branchburg, NJ to Austin TX, San Diego CA, and Paris, France. These shipments were returned to Zeus Scientific and analyzed. The shipping packages contained data recorders that logged the time, temperature and relative humidity of the contents during the shipping.

To evaluate the performance of the shipped kits versus the controls that never left the facility, twenty samples, 10 positive and 10 negative were tested. The qualitative results for all 20 samples tested using kits shipped to all three locations, were in complete agreement with data obtained from their respective non-shipped kit controls. These data demonstrated that the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System is not subject to altered performance due to the various factors associated with shipping conditions.

8. Product Shelf Life

Real time stability testing on different lots of ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System demonstrated that the kits are stable for at least 18 months when stored at 2-8°C.

## 9. Specimen Stability:

a. Specimen Stability Study A

A three member sample panel that consisted of a high positive, a low positive, and a negative sample was tested over five cycles of freezing and thawing. Both positive samples remained positive and the negative sample remained negative when tested by ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System. The results of this study showed that the parvovirus B19 IgG antibody is stable and not subject to significant change after five freeze/thaw cycles and remained stable for a minimum of 12 months.

b. Specimen Stability Study B

A three member sample panel was selected for testing, and consisted of a high positive, a low positive, and a negative sample. The panel was used to assess the impact of storing samples at either room temperature or at 2-8°C. Samples were tested by the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System at multiple time points over a 14 day storage period. Both positive samples remained positive, and the negative sample remained negative. Index values did not deviate beyond 10% from their expected outcome for the positive samples. The results showed that the parvovirus B19 IgG antibody is stable when tested by the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System for up to 14 days at either room temperature or at 2-8°C.

10. Antimicrobial Effectiveness Study

Antimicrobial effectiveness testing (by USP 51) of the reagent components of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System demonstrated that the majority of the components meet Category 3 acceptance criteria and all of the components meet

PMA P150045: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data

{6}

Category 4 acceptance criteria. Those few reagent/bacteria combinations that did not meet Category 3 criteria were tested by Zeus for functionality with and without bacterial spikes. It was demonstrated that even with significant amounts of bacteria spiked into those components, the results of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System were similar to non-spiked control results.

## X. SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDIES

### A. Study Design

The samples were collected between July 1, 2015 and August 31, 2015. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through July 1, 2016 and included 3,210 patients. There were three collection sites and two testing sites. The two studies described below evaluated performance of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System on clinical samples by comparing to another FDA approved test. One study evaluated samples from pregnant women. The other evaluated routine leftover specimens.

1. **Clinical Inclusion and Exclusion Criteria**

Enrollment in the pregnant women study was limited to patients who met the following inclusion criteria.

- Being pregnant

Enrollment in the second clinical study was limited to patients who met the following inclusion criteria.

- Samples submitted for routine Parvovirus B19 serology. All specimens were "leftover" specimens from routine submits and were not prescreened or preselected based upon any criteria.

No exclusion criteria were applied to the samples used.

2. **Follow-up Schedule**

The studies were performed on leftover specimens. Patient follow up was not applicable.

3. **Clinical Endpoints**

With regards to both safety and effectiveness, assay-negative results compared to the results from an FDA approved assay are considered. With regards to effectiveness, the assay-positive results are compared to the results from an FDA approved assay. With regard to success/failure criteria, a point agreement result of 95% with the comparator and a lower bound 95% confidence interval of 90% were applied.

## B. Accountability of PMA Cohort

There were 3,210 patient samples collected and the studies included 100% of these samples.

## C. Study Population Demographics and Baseline Parameters

The demographics of the study population are typical for a clinical study performed in the US. Two hundred ten (210) of the specimens were from expectant women; 70 from each of all three trimesters of pregnancy. The remaining 3000 specimens were collected from three different geographical locations (1000 per location) within the US. The specimens were routine submits for parvovirus B19 serology consisting of approximately 80% female and 20% male with an age range of &lt;1-89 years. The median age for males was 42.3 years and for female 32.3 years and for the pregnant women cohort the median age was 27 years.

## D. Safety and Effectiveness Results

1.  **Safety Results**

No adverse effects were reported during the study as the study evaluated performance using left over specimens. (For potential adverse effects, see Section XIII.

2.  **Effectiveness Results**

The analysis of effectiveness was based on the 3,210 evaluable patient samples. Key effectiveness outcomes are presented in Tables 6 and 7.

a. **Pregnant Women Testing**

A total of 210 samples from expectant women, consisting of 70 specimens from each of the three trimesters of pregnancy, was tested at two different locations. The specimens were tested with the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System and an FDA-approved parvovirus B19 IgG assay. The positive and negative percent agreements (PPA and NPA) are summarized in the table below.

Parvovirus B19 IgG immunoblotting was performed with a line blot immunoassay with specimens that were not in agreement between the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System and the FDA-approved assay. Of the four discrepant specimens above, all four were negative on the parvovirus B19 IgG line blot agreeing with the FDA-approved assay for 3 of the specimens.

b. Prospective Study
Three-thousand (3000) specimens were collected from three different geographical locations (1000 per location) within the US. They were specimens routinely submitted for parvovirus B19 serology. The samples were tested with an FDA-approved parvovirus B19 IgG to determine their clinical status. Testing with the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System was carried out with all specimens to determine PPA and NPA. Parvovirus B19 IgG line blots were performed on the 48 specimens that were not in agreement between ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System and the FDA-approved assay. Those results are shown as footnotes.

c. Testing of a Parvovirus B19 Performance Panel
A commercially available 21 member parvovirus B19 serology panel was tested to determine accuracy. The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System performance was compared relative to an FDA-approved parvovirus B19 IgG enzyme immunoassay. Seventeen of the twenty-one specimens were in agreement (81%). Three of the four specimens that were not in agreement were equivocal on either the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System or the FDA-approved assay. The one true discrepant specimen (ZEUS assay positive) was also positive by a validated parvovirus B19 IgG line blot.

## C. Risk/Benefit Analysis

The probable benefits of the device are based on data collected in the analytical and clinical studies conducted to support PMA approval as described above.

### Benefits

- The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System serves as an aid to the diagnosis of parvovirus infections and may assist clinicians in determining the etiology of febrile illnesses, arthritis and transient aplastic crises.
- Some pregnant women are at risk for severe fetal outcomes, and the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System may be used to determine the need for more frequent monitoring during pregnancy.

Additional factors to be considered in determining probable risks and benefits for the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgM Test System device included:

### Risks

- False positive results, false negative results, failure to correctly interpret test results, or failure to correctly operate the instrument are the primary risks associated with use of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System.
- False negative IgG results in the setting of positive IgM results may result in patient anxiety and unnecessary monitoring. However, treatment is largely supportive and only provided to patients with other clinical signs and symptoms of severe disease.

- False positive results may result in less frequent monitoring of pregnant woman, however, most pregnant woman undergo routine ultrasound monitoring during their pregnancy. The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System should be interpreted with the results of a parvovirus B19 IgM assay, which further mitigates the risks of false positive results.

Do the probable benefits outweigh the probable risks?

The probable benefits of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System outweigh the potential risks. The clinical and analytical testing that has been completed is sufficient to mitigate risks associated with the use of the assay. At present time, decisions regarding supportive treatments are made after assessing the severity of the patient's clinical manifestation. The ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System will not be the sole determination to provide or withhold treatment, but it may provide insight into disease etiology and indicate which patients require more careful follow-up and monitoring. Therefore, the proposed mitigations, including the package insert, are sufficient to support safe and efficacious use of the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System in clinical practice.

1. Patient Perspectives: This submission did not include specific information on patient perspectives for this device.

In conclusion, given the available information above, the data support that, for detection of parvovirus B19 IgG antibodies in a patient, the probable benefits outweigh the probable risks.

D. Overall Conclusions

The data in this application support the reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness of this device when used in accordance with the instructions for use. The submitted clinical studies have shown that the ZEUS ELISA Parvovirus B19 IgG Test System, when compared to reference clinical laboratory procedures, has a similar ability to detect the presence of IgG antibodies against parvovirus B19 in specimens from individuals. The rate of false positivity and false negativity are within acceptable limits. It has been shown that the device has no demonstrable cross reactivity with the many of the infectious agents or disease conditions tested. Therefore, this device should benefit the physician in the diagnosis and management of parvovirus B19 infected patients.
