Dimension Vista™ Apolipoprotein Calibrator: The APO CAL is an in vitro diagnostic product for the calibration of the apolipoprotein A-I (APOAI) and apolipoprotein B (APOB) methods on the Dimension Vista® System. Dimension Vista™ Apolipoprotein Control: APO CON is an assayed intralaboratory quality control for assessment of precision and analytical bias in determination of apolipoprotein A-I (APOAI) and apolipoprotein B (APOB) on the Dimension Vista® System.
Device Story
The Dimension Vista™ APOA1 and APOB Flex® reagent cartridges are in vitro diagnostic assays used on the Dimension Vista® System. The system utilizes an immunochemical reaction where proteins in human body fluids (serum, heparinized/EDTA plasma) form immune complexes with specific antibodies. These complexes scatter a beam of light; the intensity of scattered light is proportional to the protein concentration. Results are evaluated against a standard of known concentration. The system includes a lyophilized human serum-based calibrator and an assayed intralaboratory quality control. The device is operated by laboratory professionals in a clinical setting. Output is a quantitative concentration value used by clinicians to diagnose and treat lipid disorders, liver and renal diseases, and assess cardiovascular risk.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Precision evaluated per CLSI EP5-A2 (repeatability 1.4-6.4% CV; within-lab 2.6-7.2% CV). Linearity confirmed across reportable ranges (19-600 mg/dL for APOAI; 26-400 mg/dL for APOB) with 92-111% recovery. Interference testing per CLSI EP7-A2 showed no significant interference from hemoglobin, bilirubin, common drugs, rheumatoid factor (up to 1400 IU/mL), or total protein (up to 13.8 g/dL). Method comparison against BN ProSpec system showed high correlation (r=0.997 for APOAI; r=0.995 for APOB). Matrix equivalence demonstrated for serum, EDTA, and heparinized plasma.
Technological Characteristics
Nephelometric immunoassay; rabbit antiserum; lyophilized human serum-based calibrators/controls. Dimension Vista system-specific reagent cartridges (12 wells). Traceable to BCR-393 (APOAI) and IRP SP3-07 (APOB). Standards: CLSI EP5-A2, EP7-A2, EP9-A2.
Indications for Use
Indicated for quantitative determination of apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein B in human serum, heparinized plasma, or EDTA plasma to aid in diagnosis/treatment of lipid disorders, liver/renal diseases, and assessment of atherosclerosis/cardiovascular disease risk. For prescription use.

L. Test Principle:
Apolipoprotein A-I and apolipoprotein B in the serum or plasma sample form immune complexes in an immunochemical reaction with protein specific antibodies. These complexes scatter a beam of light as it passes through the sample. The intensity of the scattered light is proportional to the concentration of the respective protein in the sample. The result is evaluated by comparison with a standard of known concentration.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
The precision study was performed over a period of 20 days following the protocol outlined in CLSI EP5-A2.
For the APOAI assay, sample material included the Dade Behring Vista Apolipoprotein control (168 mg/dL), two serum pools (48 and 508 mg/dL) and two lithium heparin plasma pools (103 and 227 mg/dL). Repeatability ranged from 2.0-4.4% CV and within lab imprecision ranged from 2.8-4.9% CV.
For the APOB assay, sample material included the Dade Behring Vista Apolipoprotein control (96 mg/dL), three serum pools (43, 52, and 370 mg/dL) and two lithium heparin plasma pools (98 and 146 mg/dL). Repeatability ranged from 1.4-6.4% CV and within lab imprecision ranged from 2.6-7.2% CV.
b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
The reportable range of the APOAI assay is 19-600 mg/dL.
The reportable range of the APOB assay is 26-400 mg/dL.
Linearity was evaluated by comparing the observed versus expected values obtained with the Dimension Vista APOAI and APO B methods. Natural serum samples with high concentration of APOAI and APOB were mixed with System Diluent in twelve (12) different proportions across the range of the assay. For the APOAI method, when observed results were compared to expected results, recovery ranged from 92-111%. For the APOB method, recovery ranged from 95-103%.
High dose hook effect was evaluated by testing sera with elevated APOAI or APOB. No hook effect was observed with samples up 829 mg/dL and 967 mg/dL respectively.
Samples above assay range are reported by the analyzer as >600 mg/dL (APOAI) or >400 mg/dL (APOB). These samples are automatically diluted
5
{5}
1:100 with System Diluent on board the analyzer.
Samples below the assay range are reported as <19 mg/dL (APOAI) or <26 mg/dL (APOB).
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
Calibrators and controls are required with this assay and are specifically identified in the labeling. They are both provided separately, and are obtaining clearance with this submission. See the device description section, above.
Traceability and Value Assignment:
Dimension Vista Apolipoprotein Calibrator (APO CAL) and Apolipoprotein Control (APO CON) are traceable to protein reference material BCR-393 (APOAI) and IRP SP3-07 (APOB).
The value assignment process is as follows. Master Calibrators are prepared internally and values are assigned from protein reference materials BCR-393 and IRP SP3-07. The Master Calibrators are tested with along with the new lot of APO CAL or APO CON on multiple analyzers and multiple assay runs.
Stability:
The real time and accelerated stability study protocols were reviewed for APO CAL and APO CON and found to be acceptable.
d. Detection limit:
The sponsor's labeling states the lower limit of the reportable range to be 19 mg/dL (APOAI) and 26 mg/dL (APOB) which were previously established in k860894 and validated for use on the Vista. In addition, limit of blank studies were performed and the results were well below the lower limit stated.
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference testing was performed according to CLSI EP7-A2, to determine the effect of various endogenous and exogenous substances on the assay. Hemoglobin hemolysate (up to 1000 mg/dL), conjugated and unconjugated bilirubin (up to 60 mg/dL), and a panel of commonly ingested substances, over-the-counter drugs and prescription drugs did not interfere with the assay. A list of these substances can be found in the package insert. The sponsor defined interference as a difference in recovery between the test sample and control sample greater than 10%.
The effect of rheumatoid factor (RF) was evaluated by testing mixtures of serum samples with known elevated RF and samples with low RF. The APOAI and APOB concentrations were determined for each sample in replicates of five on the Dimension Vista System. For each sample preparation, the percent recovery was calculated by comparing the measured
6
{6}
result to the expected result. The sponsor defined interference as a difference in recovery between the actual and expected values of greater than 10%. Levels of RF up to 1400 IU/mL did not interfere.
The effect of interference by elevated total protein was determined by testing the total protein and APOAI and APOB concentrations in a neat sample. The neat sample was then spiked with additional protein. For each sample preparation, the percent recovery was calculated by comparing the measured result to the initial result. The sponsor defined interference as a difference in recovery between the actual and initial values of greater than 10%. Levels of total protein up to 13.8 g/dL did not interfere.
The sponsor states in the labeling under "Limitations of Procedure" that the effect of elevated triglycerides and chylomicrons was not evaluated.
