## Indications for Use

The iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test is an OTC in vitro diagnostic test used to assess early pregnancy by detecting the presence of the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone in urine. The test device is intended for use as an aid in early detection of pregnancy, in some cases as early as six (6) days before the missed period, i.e., as early as five (5) days before the day of the expected period. The iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Strip is an OTC in vitro diagnostic test used to assess early pregnancy by detecting the presence of the hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) hormone in urine. The test device is intended for use as an aid in early detection of pregnancy, in some cases as early as six (6) days before the missed period, i.e., as early as five (5) days before the day of the expected period.

## Device Story

Lateral flow immunoassay for qualitative hCG detection in urine; utilizes colloidal gold-labeled monoclonal antibodies. Device formats include test strip (dip) and test stick (dip or midstream). User applies urine sample to device; hCG binds to gold-conjugated antibody; complex migrates to test line coated with second hCG antibody; control line confirms test validity. Results displayed visually as two lines (pregnant) or one line (not pregnant) within 3-5 minutes. Used by lay users in home setting; provides rapid pregnancy status confirmation to aid clinical decision-making.

## Clinical Evidence

Clinical performance supported by a study of 830 urine samples from women aged 18-55 across days +1 to -8 relative to expected period. Lay user study (n=204) demonstrated 100% agreement between lay-user and professional results. Specificity study (n=900) across pre-, peri-, and post-menopausal cohorts showed 0% false positive rate. Analytical studies confirmed 10 mIU/mL sensitivity, no high-dose hook effect up to 1,000,000 mIU/mL, and no interference from common substances, cross-reactants (LH, FSH, TSH), pH (4.0-9.0), or specific gravity (1.000-1.035).

## Technological Characteristics

Lateral flow sandwich immunochromatographic assay. Components: sample pad, colloidal gold binding pad, nitrocellulose membrane, absorbent paper, PVC board. Antibodies: hCG monoclonal antibody 1 (gold conjugate), hCG monoclonal antibody 2 (test line), goat anti-mouse IgG (control line). Qualitative visual readout. Sensitivity: 10 mIU/mL. Traceability: WHO 5th International Standard for hCG.

## Regulatory Identification

A human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for the early detection of pregnancy is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine. A human chorionic goadotropin (HCG) test system is a device intended for any uses other than early detection of pregnancy (such as an aid in the diagnosis, prognosis, and management of treatment of persons with certain tumors or carcinomas) is intended to measure HCG, a placental hormone, in plasma or urine.

## IV Device/System Characteristics:

### A Device Description:

The tests are available in two formats: 1) The iHealth Early Pregnancy Test, which consists of a single test strip assembled in a plastic card, with an absorbent tip, designed to be tested in dip or midstream sampling mode; and 2) the iHealth Early Pregnancy Test Strip which consists of a single test strip, designed to be used by dipping the strip into a urine sample collected into the provided collection cup.

### B Principle of Operation:

The tests are lateral flow immunoassays for the in vitro detection of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in urine. Testing is conducted by immersing the absorbent tip in urine (dip mode) for 10 seconds or urinating on the absorbent tip (midstream mode) for 2-3 seconds and obtaining the result from the colored lines. After application of the urine specimen, the test result is shown in the result window and read visually after 3-5 minutes of urine application. The hCG present in the urine sample, it is bound by an hCG-2 antibody colloidal gold conjugate present at the front of the test strip forming a complex. This conjugate complex is captured by hCG-1 antibody in the detection zone forming a colored line in the test line region. Concurrently, a line will appear in the quality control zone. If the sample is negative, meaning it lacks hCG or the hCG concentration is below the detection limit, only a line appears in the quality control area. The test result is shown in the result window and read visually 3-5 minutes after urine application. Two distinct colored lines, one line in the control line region and another in the test

line region, indicate a positive test result (pregnant). Absence of a colored line in the test line region and only a colored line in the control line region indicates a negative test result (not pregnant). Absence of a colored line in the control line region, even in the presence of a colored line in the test line region, indicates an invalid test result.

# Specificity Study to Determine False Positive Result Rate

A study was performed to determine the incidence of false positive test results from iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test and iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Strip. Urine samples were collected from 300 women from each of three cohorts: non-pregnant pre-menopausal women aged 18-40 years, non-pregnant peri-menopausal women aged 41-55 years, and non-pregnant post-menopausal women  $&gt;55$  years of age. Samples were tested by trained technicians with three lots of the candidate device using both the iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test (dip mode) and the iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Stick (dip mode and midstream mode). No false positive results were observed for any of the age groups. Results of the study are shown in the table below:

Summary of Specificity Testing

|  iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Strip (dip mode) | Non-pregnant, pre-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  Non-pregnant, peri-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  Non-pregnant, post-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  All non-Pregnant | 300 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|  iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Stick (dip mode) | Non-pregnant, pre-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  Non-pregnant, peri-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  Non-pregnant, post-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|   |  All non-Pregnant | 300 | 0/100 (0%)  |
|  iHealth® Early Pregnancy Test Stick (midstream mode) | Non-pregnant, pre-menopausal | 100 | 0/100 (0%)  |
