Intended Use
ST AIA-PACK SHBG is designed for In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only for the quantitative measurement of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) in human serum or Na heparinized plasma on Tosoh AIA System Analyzers. The ST AIA-PACK SHBG assay is intended for use as an aid in the diagnosis of androgen disorders. The ST AIA-PACK SHBG Calibrator Set is intended for In Vitro Diagnostic Use Only for the calibration of the ST AIA-PACK SHBG assay.
Device Story
The ST AIA-PACK SHBG is a two-site immunoenzymometric assay performed in unit-dose test cups on Tosoh AIA System Analyzers. The device uses human serum or Na heparinized plasma as input. Inside the test cup, SHBG in the sample binds to monoclonal antibody immobilized on magnetic beads and enzyme-labeled monoclonal antibody. After washing to remove unbound components, a fluorogenic substrate (4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate) is added. The resulting fluorescence is directly proportional to the SHBG concentration. A standard curve is constructed using the ST AIA-PACK SHBG Calibrator Set to calculate unknown sample concentrations. The device is used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. The output provides quantitative SHBG levels, which clinicians use as an aid in diagnosing androgen disorders, potentially guiding patient management and treatment decisions.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical diagnostic studies performed. Evidence consists of analytical performance data: precision (total CV 2.3-6.8%), linearity (R^2=0.9924-0.9997), LoQ (0.20 nmol/L), and method comparison against predicate (n=126, slope 0.949, R=0.991). Reference ranges established for pre/post-menopausal women and males (21-49 and >=50 years) using 122-123 subjects per group.
Technological Characteristics
Two-site immunoenzymometric assay. Components: unit dose test cups with lyophilized magnetic beads coated with anti-SHBG mouse monoclonal antibody and enzyme-labeled anti-SHBG mouse monoclonal antibody. Energy source: Tosoh AIA System Analyzer (fluorescence detection). Connectivity: System-integrated. Calibration: 6-point calibrator set traceable to NIBSC 08/266. Software: Embedded firmware for instrument control and data processing.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the quantitative measurement of sex hormone binding globulin (SHBG) in human serum or Na heparinized plasma to aid in the diagnosis of androgen disorders.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A testosterone test system is a device intended to measure testosterone (a male sex hormone) in serum, plasma, and urine. Measurement of testosterone are used in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders involving the male sex hormones (androgens), including primary and secondary hypogonadism, delayed or precocious puberty, impotence in males and, in females hirsutism (excessive hair) and virilization (masculinization) due to tumors, polycystic ovaries, and adrenogenital syndromes.

# 510(k) Summary
# ST AIA-PACK SHBG
According to the requirements of 21 CFR 807.92, the following information provides sufficient detail to understand the basis for a determination of substantial equivalence.
#### Device Description:
The ST AIA-PACK SHBG is a two-site immunoenzymometric assay which is performed entirely in the ST AIA-PACK SHBG test cups. SHBG present in the test sample is bound with monoclonal antibody immobilized on a maqnetic solid phase and enzyme-labeled monoclonal antibody in the test cups. The magnetic beads are washed to remove unbound enzyme-labeled antibody and are then incubated with a fluorogenic substrate, 4-methylumbelliferyl phosphate (4MUP). The amount of enzyme-labeled monoclonal antibody that binds to the beads is directly proportional to the SHBG concentration in the test sample. A standard curve is constructed, and unknown sample concentrations are calculated using this curve.
The following materials are required to perform SHBG analysis using the ST AIA-PACK SHBG (Cat. No. 025238) on the Tosoh AIA System Analyzer.

# PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS
# Precision
The precision study was developed with reference to the CLSI protocol entitled: Evaluation of Precision Performance of Quantitative Measurement Methods (EP5-A2).
The precision study for the ST AIA-PACK SHBG assay was evaluated utilizing three AIA-2000 analyzers and three different lots of reagents. Precision was assessed by assaying three levels of serum and heparinized plasma specimens. Estimates of total and within run precision were obtained from measurements of 2 replicates in a single run, 2 times a day for 20 non-consecutive days. The mean of each duplicate was used to obtain the pooled standard deviation (SD), which was then used to calculate the coefficient of variation (CV). In addition, all of the data were combined to assess the within run, between run, between lot and total precision.

#### Interference
Interference is defined, for the purposes of this study, with recovery outside of 10 % of the known concentration of the specimen after the following substances are added to human specimens.
- Hemoglobin (up to 446 mg/dL), free bilirubin (up to 17.6 mg/dL), and conjugated bilirubin ● (up to 18.5 mq/dL) do not interfere with the assay.
- Lipemia, as indicated by triglyceride concentration (up to 1,667 mg/dL), does not interfere with the assay.
- Ascorbic acid (up to 20 mg/dL) does not interfere with the assay. .
- Protein, as indicated by human albumin concentration (up to 5,00 g/dL added to samples ● from apparently healthy subjects), does not interfere with the assay.
- Na Heparin (up to 100.0 U/mL) does not interfere with the assay. ●
- . Rheumatoid factor (up to 550 IU/mL) does not interfere with the assay.
- . HAMA (up to 24,269 ng/mL) does not interfere with the assay.
## Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantitation (LoQ):
The LoD and LoQ for ST AIA-PACK SHBG was determined, according to CLSI quideline EP17-A entitled: Protocols for Determination of Limits of Detection and Limits of Quantitation; Approved Guideline.
The LoB was determined by 60 measurements of 4 different blank specimens. The LoB was the value at the 95th percentile. In this case LoB was determined to be 0.017 nmol/L.
The LoD was determined by 12 measurements of 10 low level sample range was chosen to be between LoB and 5XLoB. The LoD was determined to be 0.063 nmol/L.
The Limit of Quantification (LoQ) 12 measurements of 5 samples for ST AIA-PACK SHBG. The test results from the LoD study were used to calculate the %TE at that level. The LoQ was determined to be 0.2 nmol/L based on a % total error of 12%.

## Calibrator Stability
#### Real Time Testing
ST AIA-PACK SHBG Calibrator Set were stored at refrigerated temperatures and assayed at 3, 6, 9, 12 and 13 months after the day of the first assay.
The acceptance criteria for recovery was within 100 +/- 10%.
The criterion for reproducibility (CV %) was </= 10%.
Current real time studies support a 12 month shelf life at refrigerated temperatures from the date of manufacturing.
## Open Vial Stability
Open vial stability of the ST AIA-PACK SHBG Calibrator Set was assessed by reconstituting the material according to the package insert. Samples were reconstituted and stored at refrigerated temperatures for 2 days and tested for SHBG.
The criterion for recovery was within 100 +/-10%.
The criterion for reproducibility (CV %) was </= 10%.
Current open vial studies support an in-use claim of 1 day when refrigerated.
## Summary of Calibrator Value Assignment
The value assignment of the ST AIA-PACK SHBG Calibrator Set is determined on a lot-by-lot basis and is designed to provide an assay calibration range of 0.005 to 12.5 nmol/L of SHBG. The calibrators in this set are referenced to the 2nd International Standard for SHBG from the National Institute for Biological Standards and Control (NIBSC) code 08/266.
The primary reference material was prepared by diluting the SHBG with the calibrator base. The value of SHBG was assigned based on WHO 2nd IS SHBG using ST AIA-PACK SHBG
The value of the secondary reference material was assigned using the AIA instruments with the primary reference material as calibrator. The value was verified by comparing measured results with those obtained with the previous lot for patient samples.
Note: As each manufactured calibrator concentration corresponds to a unique rate generated by the reaction detected by the instrument, the rate generated by the patient sample (which is diluted 1:20) would correspond to a rate on the curve generated by the manufactured calibrator. The value would then be multiplied automatically by the factor of 20 to generate the actual concentration of SHBG in the sample.
