EURO/DPC's TMC is an assayed, human serumbased, tri-level control containing several human source-derived analytes associated with malignancy which are commonly measured by immunoassay. It is intended strictly for in vitro diagnostic use as an aid in monitoring the day-to-day performance of assays for these constituents.
Device Story
Tumor Marker Control (TMC) is an assayed, human serum-based, tri-level control material; contains human source-derived analytes associated with malignancy. Used in clinical laboratories to monitor day-to-day performance of tumor marker immunoassays. Laboratory personnel use the control to verify assay precision and accuracy; results help ensure reliability of patient test results. Device provides a benchmark for quality control; does not perform diagnostic analysis itself.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data; bench testing only.
Technological Characteristics
Assayed, human serum-based, tri-level control material. Contains human source-derived analytes. Manufactured under ISO 9002/EN29002/BS 5750 quality systems.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro diagnostic use as a quality control material to monitor the performance of tumor marker immunoassays in clinical laboratory settings.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) for clinical chemistry is a device intended for medical purposes for use in a test system to estimate test precision and to detect systematic analytical deviations that may arise from reagent or analytical instrument variation. A quality control material (assayed and unassayed) may be used for proficiency testing in interlaboratory surveys. This generic type of device includes controls (assayed and unassayed) for blood gases, electrolytes, enzymes, multianalytes (all kinds), single (specified) analytes, or urinalysis controls.

Dear Dr. Levine:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to leqally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existinq major requlations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Requlations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Requlation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (21 CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic QS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Reqister. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 531 through 542 of the Act for devices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or requlations.
