Major Adverse Cardiac Events (MACE) Risk Assessment
Not specified
Univariate analysis 30-day MACE: Q4 vs Q1 Odds Ratio 4.29 (95% CI: 1.91-9.61); Multivariate analysis 30-day MACE: Q4 vs Q1 Adjusted Odds Ratio 4.31 (95% CI: 1.62-11.50).
Not applicable
Clinical study of 400 EDTA samples from patients presenting to the Emergency Department or acutely to outpatient facilities with chest pain or equivalent symptoms suggestive of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS).
Indications for Use
The MPO method is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative measurement of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in human plasma on the Dimension® clinical chemistry system with the heterogeneous immunoassay module. Myeloperoxidase measurements may be used in conjunction with clinical history, ECG, and cardiac biomarkers to evaluate patients presenting with chest pain that are at risk for major adverse cardiac events, including myocardial infarction, need for revascularization, or death.
Device Story
The Dimension MPO Flex reagent cartridge is an in vitro diagnostic immunoassay for quantitative MPO measurement in human plasma. It utilizes a one-step sandwich enzyme immunoassay principle on the Dimension clinical chemistry system. The process involves incubating patient samples with chromium dioxide particles coated with MPO-specific monoclonal antibodies and a beta-galactosidase-labeled conjugate. Magnetic separation removes unbound conjugate; the remaining sandwich is reacted with a chromogenic substrate (CPRG). Hydrolysis releases a chromophore (CPR), with color change measured at 577 nm. The concentration of MPO is directly proportional to the rate of color change. The device is used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results are provided to physicians to assist in risk stratification for MACE in patients presenting with chest pain, alongside other clinical data. It aids in identifying patients at higher risk for cardiac events, potentially guiding clinical management decisions.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical study of 400 patients presenting with chest pain or ACS symptoms. MACE (myocardial infarction, revascularization, or death) assessed at 30 days and 6 months. Logistic regression showed MPO concentration correlates with MACE risk; odds ratios increased with MPO quartiles. MPO provided statistically significant incremental value (p<0.05) over race, gender, hyperlipidemia, and hsCRP in predicting MACE. MPO levels >633 pmol/L identified patients at higher risk for MACE even when Troponin I was <0.07 ng/mL.
Technological Characteristics
Sandwich enzyme immunoassay; chromium dioxide particles; beta-galactosidase label; chromogenic substrate (CPRG); 577 nm photometric detection. Compatible with Dimension clinical chemistry system (heterogeneous immunoassay module). Sample types: EDTA, lithium heparin, or sodium heparin plasma. Analytical specificity: <0.15% cross-reactivity with common cardiac markers (Troponin I, CRP, etc.).
Indications for Use
Indicated for quantitative measurement of myeloperoxidase (MPO) in human plasma to evaluate patients presenting with chest pain at risk for major adverse cardiac events (MACE), including myocardial infarction, revascularization, or death. Used in conjunction with clinical history, ECG, and cardiac biomarkers. Prescription use only.

L. Test Principle:
The Dimension MPO reagent kit is a one step enzyme immunoassay based on the "sandwich" principle. The sample is incubated with chromium dioxide particles coated with mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for MPO, and conjugate reagent (B-galactosidase labeled mouse monoclonal antibodies specific for MPO). A particle/MPO/conjugate forms during the incubation period. Unbound conjugate is removed by magnetic separation and washing. The sandwich bound B-galactosidase is combined with the chromogenic substrate chlorophenol red-B-D-galactopyranoside (CPRG). Hydrolysis of CPRG releases a chromophore (CPR). The concentration of MPO present in the patient sample is directly proportional to the rate of color change due to formation of CPR measured at 577 nm.

b. Linearity/assay reportable range:
Linearity was assessed in a recovery study according to CLSI EP6-A: Evaluation of the Linearity of Quantitative Measurement Procedures: A Statistical Approach. A 7-level dilution series (concentrations shown below) run in replicates of five were prepared by mixing low and high patient samples. A linear regression equation was conducted for expected results versus observed results. The resulting linear regression equation is $y = 1.018x - 1.833$ with a $R^2$ of .999. The results of the recovery study shown below and the functional sensitivity study shown in section d. below support the sponsor claimed range of 20 to 5000 pmol/L.
| Sample # | Expected (pmol/L) | Observed Mean (pmol/L) | % Recovery |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 (Low) | 26 | 26 | |
| 2 | 892 | 848 | 95.0 |
| 3 | 1759 | 1783 | 101.4 |
| 4 | 2574 | 2636 | 102.4 |
| 5 | 3440 | 3550 | 103.2 |
| 6 | 4307 | 4432 | 102.9 |
| 7 (High) | 5122 | 5122 | |
The sponsor also conducted a hook effect study to assess samples above the range of the test. Samples were prepared by spiking purified human MPO into a normal human plasma base. The concentrations were verified by making a dilution with human pooled plasma of known low analyte concentration so that the expected value would fall within the MPO assay range. The samples were tested to determine if high samples would give erroneous results. The MPO assay upper range is 5000 pmol/L. Samples whose signals either exceed the upper assay range limit or cause the instruments protected feature are flagged as "Above Assay Range". Based on the results from the study and the additional features of the instrument, the sponsor reports that there was no observed hook effect for samples up to 800,000 pmol/L.
c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods):
Traceability
No reference standard is available for myeloperoxidase. An anchor pool was prepared from patient reference samples which consisted of native analyte in human serum. A master pool was derived from the anchor pool which is a 5-level liquid working standard of purified analyte in BSA. The initial master pool is assigned from the anchor pool during a patient sample method comparison spanning the assay range. All subsequent master pools are assigned using a set protocol on multiple instruments. The working calibrator materials are assigned values based on the master pool using a set protocol on multiple instruments.
{7}
The two MPO controls have the same formulation and approximate values as the MPO calibrator levels 2 and 4 (500 and 3000 pmol/L) and are made from independent production runs.
## Stability
The sponsor conducted a closed vial calibrator/control stability study in which 3 lots of five levels (approx. 0, 500, 1000, 3000, 5375 pmol/L) of calibrators (stored at -20 C) were tested in replicates at time increments between 0 and 13 months. The study results support the sponsor's calibrator/control stability claim of 13 months.
The sponsor conducted an open vial stability study in which 2 vials of each level were assayed in triplicate for 15 days. The open vial results were compared with an unopened vial for 15 days. The study results support the sponsor's calibrator/control stability claim of 14 days when stored at 2-8 C°.
The sponsor conducted a sample stability study to determine the specimen types and the temperature required for sample storage. 20 EDTA plasma samples (10 collected in house and 10 from a blood bank) and 20 lithium heparin plasma samples (10 collected in house and 10 from a blood bank) were frozen at -20 C. Calibration was conducted daily and the samples were tested in replicates of 5 at day 0, month 1, month 3 and month 6 with the MPO reagent. The results support the sponsor's 6 month sample stability claim when frozen at -20°C.
The sponsor conducted a further sample stability study to determine the number of storage days for a sample if stored at 4°C. Ten paired EDTA and Lithium Heparin samples were stored at 4°C and were run in triplicate with the reagent. The results support the sponsor's 6 day sample stability claim when stored at 4°C.
The sponsor conducted a freeze-thaw stability study to determine the number of times a sample containing myeloperoxidase could be thawed. The paired lithium heparin and EDTA plasma samples from the anticoagulant study in the matrix comparison section 2b below were assayed fresh and then frozen at -70°C. The samples were thawed, assayed in replicates of five and then refrozen. The results support the sponsor's freeze thaw statement within the package insert of "MPO levels in EDTA and heparinized plasma have been shown to be stable through three freeze/thaw cycles."
## d. Detection limit:
The sponsor conducted a limit of the blank study according to CLSI EP17 in which calibrator 1 (0 pmol/L) was assayed 20 consecutive times. The limit of the blank is 13 pmol/L which is the mean value (n=20) plus two standard deviations of the level 1 (0 pmol/L) MPO Calibrator.
8
{8}
The sponsor conducted a functional sensitivity study (one run per testing day for 20 days). Four separate studies (3 in-house sites and 1 external site) were conducted with five human plasma pools with low MPO concentrations. The within-lab precision versus the mean MPO concentration was plotted. The functional sensitivity estimate for each study was read as the MPO concentration giving a 20% CV within-lab precision. The results per site ranged from 7 pmol/L to 16 pmol/L which support the sponsor's functional sensitivity claim of 20% CV at 20 pmol/L.
e. Analytical specificity:
The sponsor conducted an interference study according to CLSI EP7-A2. Bias was defined as the difference in the results between the control sample (without the interferent) and the test sample (contains the interferent) expressed in percent. The sponsor's acceptance criterion was that a bias exceeding 10% was considered as significant interference. Myeloperoxidase samples with concentrations between 481 and 2000 pmol/L were tested for bilirubin (conjugated and non-conjugated), lipemia and hemoglobin. The results showed no significant interference for hemoglobin up to 1000 mg/dL, bilirubin (conjugated and non-conjugated) up to 60 mg/dL and lipemia (Intralipid) up to 3000 mg/dL
Cross reactivity was studied using potentially cross-reacting substances commercially purchased. The substances were spiked into samples containing 0 and approximately 1500-2000 pmol/L myeloperoxidase. Percent cross-reactivity was defined as (Mean Test Result - Mean Control Result)/Cross Reactant Compound Concentration in pmol/L *100. The cross-reactivity was less than 0.15% for all cross reactants except Eosinophil Peroxidase which was 0.43%. The results for the cross-reactivity studies are shown in the tables below

a. Method comparison with predicate device:
The sponsor conducted a method comparison study according to CLSI EP9-A2. One hundred and thirty-nine lithium heparin samples ranging from 154 to 4869 pmol/L were analyzed using the Dimension MPO on the Dimension RxL and the Prognostix MPO assay. The Passing-Bablok linear regression results are shown in the table below.
| Slope | Intercept (pmol/L) | Correlation Coefficient | N |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1.03
(95%CI: 0.97 to 1.12) | 91.8
(95% CI: -10.0 to 180.6) | 0.88 | 139 |
b. Matrix comparison:
The sponsor conducted a matrix comparison study to evaluate the effects of EDTA
{10}
and Sodium Heparin samples with the Dimension MPO assay. The Passing-Bablok linear regression (x=Li heparin values) results are shown in the table below.
| Comparative Specimen | Slope | Intercept (pmol/L) | Correlation Coefficient | Range (pmol/L) | N |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Lithium Heparin vs. EDTA | 1.01 | -19.3 | 0.997 | 165-3812 | 59 |
| Lithium Heparin vs. Sodium Heparin | 0.96 | -7.2 | 0.999 | 167-3401 | 49 |
The frequencies for the $\%$ differences ranged from $< -20\%$ to $>20\%$ as shown in the plots below.


# 3. Clinical studies:
a. Clinical Sensitivity:
Not applicable
b. Clinical specificity:
Not applicable.
c. Other clinical supportive data (when a. and b. are not applicable):
A clinical study was conducted which included 400 EDTA samples collected from patients presenting to the Emergency Department or acutely to outpatient facilities with chest pain or equivalent symptoms suggestive of Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS). Approximately $85\%$ of the patient population presented within 24 hours of the onset of symptoms. On electrocardiogram (ECG), $15.5\%$ of patients had ST
{11}
segment elevation; $6.75\%$ of patients had ST segment depression; $33\%$ had one of the following: new Q-waves, old Q-waves, or non-specific T wave abnormality; and $44.75\%$ had none of the aforementioned changes on ECG. Patients were assessed for major adverse cardiac events (MACE) which includes myocardial infarction, recurrent ischemia associated with ECG changes, recurrent ischemia requiring hospitalization or revascularization, and death. Incidence of MACE was assessed by a review of medical records and/or medical database searches. Patients were excluded: if the chest pain was due to trauma or if they were apparently healthy individuals. The demographics of the patients are shown in the table below.

Odds ratios were determined using univariate and multivariate logistic regression models. Each MPO quartile was compared versus MPO quartile 1 for the outcomes of MACE at the 30 day and 180 day intervals post-presentation. The multivariate analysis included the following variables in addition to MPO: age, sex, race, history of hypertension, history of hyperlipidemia, smoking status, history of diabetes, white blood cell count (WBC), and the following cardiac markers: Dimension® troponin I (CTNI), NTproBNP (PBNP) and hsCRP (CCRP). Results of the univariate and multivariate analysis are displayed in the following two tables below.

Logistic-regression models were used to calculate odds ratios and 95th percentile confidence intervals. Odds ratios (shown below) were calculated for MPO separately and after adjustment for age, gender, Troponin I, NT-proBNP, C-reactive protein, white blood cell count, ST-segment depression, history of hypertension, history of hypercholesterolemia, history of diabetes, and smoking status. In each analysis the first quartile served as the reference group for calculation of odds ratio.

ROC analysis was conducted to determine if MPO is a significant predictor of the ROC curve (or area under the curve (AUC) after adjustment for covariates such as race, gender, hyperlipidemia, CRP and troponin (chart shown below). MPO did not have a statistically significant added effect over Troponin I, which could be due to competing effect of MPO and Troponin I or simply a difference in their biological variation.

Further analysis of the clinical data was made by stratifying patients using the upper limit of the MPO reference interval (633 pmol/L) and Dimension Troponin I at the 99th percentile (0.07 ng/mL). The analysis shows that patients at risk for MACE within 30 and 180 days were identified significantly more often for MPO>633 pmol/L than for MPO ≤633 pmol/L when Troponin ≤0.07 ng/mL.
Improved Stratification for MACE When Dimension Troponin I is 0.07 ng/mL.*

* p = 0.008 vs. MPO ≤ 633 pmol/L. One sided p values were calculated using Fisher's Exact test
+ Data shown represents incidence of MACE at 30 days; incidence of MACE at 180 days was similar
The results showed that MPO is a significant predictor of MACE at 30 days and at 6 months and supports a substantial equivalence decision.

5. Expected values/Reference range:
The sponsor conducted a reference range study using EDTA samples per CLSI protocol C28-A2 How to Define and Determine Reference Intervals in the Clinical Laboratory; Approved Guideline—Second Edition. The sponsor selected the lower, one-sided 95% region of results obtained with the assay in a healthy population as the Dimension® MPO reference interval.
The sponsor includes the following in the labeling:
“In a study of 286 EDTA plasma samples from apparently healthy individuals, the reference interval encompassing the lower 95% region for the Dimension® MPO method was as follows:
| N | Range encompassing the lower 95% region |
| --- | --- |
| 286 | 51–633 pmol/L |
Each laboratory should establish its own expected values for MPO as performed on the Dimension® system.”
N. Proposed Labeling:
The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.
O. Conclusion:
The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.
