HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma is human plasma depleted of Factor VIII and intended for the in vitro diagnostic quantitative determination of Factor VIII activity in citrated plasma, based on the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assay, on the ACL TOP® Family analyzers. HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma is indicated for use on patients who are suspected of congenital or acquired deficiency based on the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) assay results.
Device Story
HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma is a lyophilized human plasma reagent used for quantitative determination of Factor VIII activity. It is used in clinical laboratories on ACL TOP® Family analyzers. The device functions by measuring the prolongation of the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) in citrated patient plasma samples. The assay involves adding patient plasma to the Factor VIII deficient plasma in the presence of contact activator, thromboplastin, phospholipids, and calcium ions. The degree of clotting time prolongation correlates with Factor VIII activity levels. Healthcare providers use the resulting quantitative activity values to assess patients for congenital or acquired Factor VIII deficiencies. The device aids in the diagnosis and management of coagulation disorders.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical trials were performed. Analytical performance was established via bench testing. Precision studies (N=80 per level) met acceptance criteria (CVs ≤10-20%). Linearity was confirmed across 0-170% activity range. Method comparison studies (n=336 patient samples across three sites) showed high correlation (r=0.98-0.99) with the predicate device. Interference studies confirmed tolerance to hemoglobin, triglycerides, bilirubin, and lupus anticoagulant antibodies.

The assay determines the functional activity of Factor VIII by measuring the degree of prolongation of activated partial thromboplastin time in the presence of a contact activator, thromboplastin, phospholipids and calcium ions. Factor VIII activity is correlated with the prolongation of the clotting time of the Factor VIII deficient plasma to which diluted patient sample has been added.
M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable):
{2}
# 1. Analytical performance:
# a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Within-run and between-run: Precision studies were performed with three lots of HemosIL Factor VIII deficient plasma on the ACL TOP, ACL TOP 500 CTS, and ACL TOP 700 for 20 operational days, with 2 runs a day and 2 replicates per run for each sample level (N=80 per level for each reagent/instrument combination). The acceptance criteria are listed in the following table.
| Sample | Range of sample means (FVIII % Activity) | Within-run % CV | Between-run % CV |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| HemosIL Normal Control | 75.5 – 87.4 | ≤10% | ≤10% |
| HemosIL ST Level 2 Control | 23.8 – 29.7 | ≤15% | ≤15% |
| Low Control I | 7.4 – 12.1 | ≤20% | ≤20% |
| Low Control II | 5.1 – 6.8 | ≤20% | ≤20% |
The acceptance criteria were met for all samples within each study.
# b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity testing was performed using two lots of HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma on the ACL TOP and ACL TOP 500 CTS using the APTT reagents SynthASil and APTT SP. The Factor VIII activities of a high sample and an intermediate sample were determined from the mean of 8 replicates using the predicate HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma. These two samples were diluted in order to prepare 12 samples with Factor VIII activities ranging from $0\%$ to $170\%$ . All Factor VIII samples were run in 4 replicates on the ACL TOP Family members for both reagent lots and the average activities for all the samples were plotted against their assigned values. Acceptance criteria were as follows: slope, $0.85 - 1.15$ ; $\mathrm{R}^2 \geq 0.95$ . The results of the study fell within acceptable limits. The results support the claimed assay reportable range using SynthASil of $0.1 - 150\%$ FVIII activity and a reportable range using APTT SP of $0.5 - 150\%$ FVIII activity.
# c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): Reagent Stability
Real Time Stability: The general storage condition for HemosIL® Factor VIII Deficient Plasma is at $2 - 8^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ . Three lots were stored and at periodic times sample vials were removed for stability testing. The study was performed on an ACL TOP for the recovery of Factor VIII activity for two plasma controls: Normal and ST Level 2, tested in quadruplicate. The acceptance criteria are found in the table below. To date of the submission, real time stability was tested for 12 months for the 1st and 2nd lots, and 6 months for the 3rd lot. All tests were within the established acceptance range. Based on the results of the accelerated stability study, which projects a 3-year shelf life, the 12 month shelf life claim is supported for the product when stored at $2 - 8^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ . Ongoing real-time stability testing will be used to update the shelf life.
On board Stability (open vial): Open vials of two lots of reconstituted HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma were placed in the reagent block of
{3}
an ACL TOP for 27 hours. Using on-board Factor VIII deficient plasma and SynthASil reagent, the Factor VIII activity assay was performed for Normal Control Plasma and ST Level 2 at 0, 2, 4, 8, 24 and 27 hour time points. Each control plasma sample was tested in quadruplicate. Using the mean of the Factor VIII activities of each control plasma sample at zero hour as a baseline, the change (%) in Factor VIII activity for each time point was calculated. The acceptance criteria are found in the table below. The data indicate that the change (%) at every time point tested met the specified limitation. Factor VIII deficient plasma is stable for 24 hours on board the ACL TOP at 15°C.
Reconstituted stability at 2-8°C: Two lots of HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma were reconstituted and stored at 2-8°C for 27 hours. Using this plasma and SynthASil on the ACL TOP Base, the Factor VIII activity assay was performed for Normal Control Plasma and ST Level 2 at 0, 2, 4, 8, 24, and 27 hour time points. Each control plasma sample was tested in quadruplicate. Using the mean of the Factor VIII activities of each control plasma sample at zero hour as a baseline, the change (%) in Factor VIII activity for each time point was calculated. The acceptance criteria are found in the table below. The data indicate that the change (%) at every time point tested met the specified limitation. Factor VIII deficient plasma is stable for 24 hours at 2-8°C after reconstitution.
Frozen stability study at -20°C: Two lots of Factor VIII deficient plasma were reconstituted and stored at -20°C for 31 days. Using this plasma and APTT SP on the ACL TOP 500, the Factor VIII activity assay was performed for Normal Control Plasma and ST Level 2 at 0, 1, 4, 7, 14, 21, 28 and 31 day time points. Each control plasma sample was tested in quadruplicate. Using the mean of the Factor VIII activities of each control plasma sample at zero hour as a base line the change (%) in Factor VIII activity for each time point was calculated. The acceptance criteria are found in the table below. Results for both lots indicate that the change (%) met the specified limitation at every time point tested. Factor VIII deficient plasma is stable for 3 weeks at -20°C after reconstitution.
Stability Testing Acceptance Criteria:
| Sample | Specification |
| --- | --- |
| HemosIL Normal Control | baseline mean ±10% |
| HemosIL SP Control | baseline mean ±15% |
d. Detection limit:
Not applicable
e. Analytical specificity:
Interference studies were conducted using one lot of HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma on the ACL TOP 700 analyzing normal plasma spiked with various concentrations of hemoglobin, triglyceride, bilirubin, lupus anticoagulant antibodies, and FVIII inhibitor. Both SynthASil and APTT SP reagents were employed. The percent differences in results of the spiked plasma samples and unspiked plasma sample were determined. Acceptance criterion was percent difference between the spiked and baseline (unspiked)
{4}
sample to be $\leq 15\%$ . Interference tolerance limits were determined. Factor VIII results on the ACL TOP Family are not affected by hemoglobin up to 530 mg/dL, triglycerides up to $2000\mathrm{mg / dL}$ , bilirubin up to $150\mathrm{mg / dL}$ , and Factor VIII inhibitors up to 0.1 BU. Results are not affected by the presence of Lupus anticoagulant antibodies.

An in-house method comparison study was conducted to compare the performance of the predicate Factor VIII Deficient Plasma to the new HemosIL® Factor VIII Deficient Plasma on an ACL TOP base model and an ACL TOP 500 CTS using each of the APTT reagents (SynthASil, APTT SP). A total of at least 88 samples were tested per instrument with each APTT reagent and the results were calculated by comparing the first replicate values. The study included apparently normal healthy donors and patients suspected of factor VIII deficiency. The clinical breakdown of samples is detailed in the table below:

# b. Matrix comparison:
Fresh vs. Once Thawed Samples - Plasma samples were collected in tubes containing $3.2\%$ sodium citrate as an anticoagulant and processed. Testing was performed on the ACL TOP with the HemosIL Factor VIII Deficient Plasma. One hundred nineteen (119) patient samples (37 normal and 82 abnormal) were used for the comparison. After testing the fresh samples they were stored at or below $-65^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ for at least 24 hours before being thawed and re-tested. Acceptance criteria were as follows: slope 0.85 to 1.15 and $\mathrm{r} \geq 0.95$ . The regression analysis produced a slope $= 1.011$ and a correlation coefficient $(\mathrm{r}) = 0.9880$ .
Comparison of $3.2\%$ and $3.8\%$ sodium citrate plasma - Two blood samples were drawn, from a total of 37 normal donors, using both a $3.2\%$ and $3.8\%$ sodium citrate sample tube respectively. Plasma samples were obtained from prompt centrifugation and Factor VIII was depleted from the donor plasmas with different sodium citrate concentrations using antibody resin. The donor samples then were diluted with the appropriate citrated Factor VIII depleted plasma to produce a range of concentrations. A total of 29 pairs of artificial samples were prepared and tested with SynthASil and APTT SP APTT reagents. Acceptance criteria were as follows: slope 0.85 to 1.15 and $\mathrm{r} \geq 0.95$ . The regression slope and correlation coefficient were 0.885 and 0.987 for SynthASil respectively. The slope and correlation coefficient were 0.907 and 0.9870 respectively for APTT SP.

b. Clinical specificity: Not applicable
c. Other clinical supportive data (when a. and b. are not applicable): Not applicable
4. Clinical cut-off: Not applicable
5. Expected values/Reference range: Verification of the normal range for Factor VIII activity was performed. Apparently normal healthy donors were tested for Factor VIII activity during field studies at two US sites with the ACL TOP using SynthASil and APTT SP reagents. The results for 20 normals from each site were statistically analyzed for their distribution in order to verify the normal range for Factor VIII activity. The results obtained at each site verified the normal range Factor VIII activity of 50 - 150% when using the HemosIL® Factor VIII deficient plasma.
N. Proposed Labeling: The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.
