Indications for Use
The Progenika A1AT genotyping kit is a qualitative, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and hybridization-based in vitro diagnostic test to be used with the Luminex 200TM instrument (with xPONENT® software) for the simultaneous detection and identification of 14 allelic variants and their associated alleles found in the Alpha-1 antitrypsin (A1AT) codifying gene SERPINA1. The test is intended for use with genomic DNA extracted from human whole blood samples collected as dry blood spots (DBS) or in K2-EDTA or from human saliva samples collected as buccal swabs using ORAcollect·Dx OCD-100. The A1AT allelic variant genotypes and associated allele results, when used in conjunction with clinical findings and other laboratory tests, are intended as an aid in the diagnosis of individuals with A1AT deficiency (A1ATD). The kit is indicated for prescription use only.
Device Story
The A1AT Genotyping Test is an in vitro diagnostic assay for identifying 14 allelic variants in the SERPINA1 gene. Input samples include genomic DNA from human whole blood (DBS or K2-EDTA) or saliva (buccal swabs). The process involves multiplex PCR amplification and biotinylation of DNA, followed by hybridization to oligonucleotide probes on color-coded beads (Luminex xMAP technology). Hybridized DNA is labeled with a fluorescent conjugate and detected by the Luminex 200 system. The A1AT Genotyping Test Analysis Software processes raw data to convert allelic variant genotypes into associated alleles based on literature. The device is used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results are interpreted by healthcare providers alongside clinical findings to aid in diagnosing A1AT deficiency. The software update (v1.0.8.16) is the primary modification from the predicate.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by design control activities, risk analysis, and verification/validation of the MFI ratio range adjustment for the software algorithm.
Technological Characteristics
Uses Luminex xMAP technology; multiplex PCR amplification and hybridization to oligonucleotide probes on color-coded beads. Fluorescent detection via Luminex 200 system. Software-based analysis of allelic variants. Reagents include PCR Master Mix, Beads Master Mix, SAPE, and SAPE Dilution Buffer. Compatible with genomic DNA from whole blood (DBS/K2-EDTA) or saliva (buccal swabs).
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of SERPINA1 gene mutations (PI*S and PI*Z alleles) in human genomic DNA from whole blood to aid in diagnosis of Alpha-1-Antitrypsin deficiency. For professional use in clinical laboratories.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An alpha-1-antitrypsin immunological test system is a device that consists of the reagents used to measure by immunochemical techniques the alpha-1-antitrypsin (a plasma protein) in serum, other body fluids, and tissues. The measurements aid in the diagnosis of several conditions including juvenile and adult cirrhosis of the liver. In addition, alpha-1-antitrypsin deficiency has been associated with pulmonary emphysema.
