Used in clinical laboratories by trained personnel to aid in diagnosing systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). The assay measures antibody-antigen binding; results are interpreted by clinicians alongside other serological tests and patient clinical presentation to support SLE diagnosis. ## Clinical Evidence Performance evaluated using 252 samples (189 SLE, 28 healthy, 35 dsDNA positive). Comparison with BINDAZYME ELISA showed 85.3% overall agreement; comparison with Crithidia luciliae showed 87.3% overall agreement. Comparison with Farr RIA (n=166) showed 92.8% overall agreement (89.8% positive percent agreement). Analytical precision: intra-assay CV 2.2-5.4%, inter-assay CV 3.9-13.5%. Cut-off established at 30 IU/mL using 150 healthy donors. No interference observed from bilirubin, hemoglobin, chyle, or rheumatoid factor. ## Technological Characteristics Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kit; utilizes specific antigen-antibody binding principles for detection of high avidity IgG autoantibodies against dsDNA in human serum samples. ## Regulatory Identification An antinuclear antibody immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the autoimmune antibodies in serum, other body fluids, and tissues that react with cellular nuclear constituents (molecules present in the nucleus of a cell, such as ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid, or nuclear proteins). The measurements aid in the diagnosis of systemic lupus erythematosus (a multisystem autoimmune disease in which antibodies attack the victim's own tissues), hepatitis (a liver disease), rheumatoid arthritis, Sjögren's syndrome (arthritis with inflammation of the eye, eyelid, and salivary glands), and systemic sclerosis (chronic hardening and shrinking of many body tissues). ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Olympic Blvd Santa Monica, CA 90404 DEC 1 9 2006 Re: k062183 Trade/Device Name: FARRZYME Human High Avidity Anti-dsDNA Enzyme Immunoassay Kit Regulation Number: 21 CFR 866.5100 Regulation Name: Antinuclear Antibody Immunological Test System Regulatory Class: Class II Product Code: LRM Dated: July 25, 2006 Received: July 31, 2006 Dear Mr. Geller: This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 21, 2006. We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval (PMA). 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, condons provision practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be may of able of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must or any I with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050. {1}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 This letter will allow you to continue marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market. If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0484.
