Indications for Use
The ADVIA Centaur® CA 15-3 assay is an in vitro diagnostic test for the quantitative serial determination of cancer antigen CA 15-3 in human serum and plasma (EDTA and lithium heparin) using the ADVIA Centaur®, ADVIA Centaur XP, and ADVIA Centaur XPT systems. When used in conjunction with other clinical and diagnostic procedures, serial testing with the ADVIA Centaur CA 15-3 assay is useful for monitoring the course of disease and therapy in metastatic breast cancer patients, and for detection of recurrence in previously treated Stage II, with greater than two positive lymph nodes, or Stage III breast cancer patients. This assay is not intended for use on any other system.
Device Story
ADVIA Centaur CA 15-3 is a fully automated, two-step sandwich immunoassay using direct chemiluminescent technology. Input: human serum or plasma (Li-Heparin/K2-EDTA). Process: sample incubated with monoclonal mouse capture antibody on paramagnetic particles and conjugate reagent (anti-115D8 antibody); washed; incubated with lite reagent (acridinium ester-labeled anti-DF3 antibody); washed again. Output: quantitative CA 15-3 concentration (U/mL). Used in clinical laboratories on ADVIA Centaur, XP, and XPT systems. Results assist clinicians in monitoring metastatic breast cancer therapy and detecting recurrence.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical studies were performed; clinical sensitivity and specificity were established in the predicate (K012357). Analytical performance for the new matrices was validated via method comparison: 129 serum/K2-EDTA pairs and 108 serum/Li-heparin pairs tested on the ADVIA Centaur XP. Results showed high correlation (r=1.00) with slopes near 1.0 (0.96 and 1.02 respectively). Detection limits (LoB, LoD, LoQ) were determined per CLSI EP17-A2.
Indicated for quantitative serial determination of CA 15-3 in human serum and plasma (EDTA/lithium heparin) to monitor disease course and therapy in metastatic breast cancer patients, and to detect recurrence in previously treated Stage II (with >2 positive lymph nodes) or Stage III breast cancer patients.

## B Principle of Operation:
The ADVIA Centaur CA 15-3 assay is a fully automated, two-step sandwich immunoassay using direct chemiluminescent technology. The Lite Reagent is composed of the monoclonal mouse antibody, DF3, specific for CA 15-3, labeled with acridinium ester. The Conjugate Reagent is composed of the monoclonal mouse antibody 115D8, specific for CA15-3, labeled with fluorescein. The Solid Phase is composed of purified monoclonal mouse capture antibody, which is covalently coupled to paramagnetic particles. The sample is incubated with both Conjugate Reagent and Solid Phase simultaneously for 20 minutes. After incubation, the immuno-complex is washed and the Lite Reagent is added, incubated for an additional 20 minutes and then washed again.

3. Analytical Specificity/Interference:
Analytical specificity/interference were demonstrated in K012357
4. Assay Reportable Range:
The claimed measuring range is from 3.0 U/mL to 200 U/mL.
5. Traceability, Stability, Expected Values (Controls, Calibrators, or Methods):
The traceability and stability were established in K012357.
6. Detection Limit:
The limit of blank (LoB), limit of detection (LoD), and limit of Quantitation (LoQ) of the ADVIA Centaur CA 15-3 were determined according to the CLSI guideline EP17-A2.
LoB was determined by testing six analyte free samples in replicates of five per run, two run per day, for six days on one ADVIA Centaur XP system using two lots of reagents. The LoB was estimated as the 95th percentile of 360 measurements for each of the lots tested and determined to be 0.62 U/mL and 0.82 U/mL for the two lots. The claimed LoB is 1.0 U/mL
LoD was determined using 10 serum samples with low CA15-3 concentrations. Each sample was tested in five replicates per run, two runs per day, for six days on one ADVIA Centaur XP system using two lots of reagents. The LoD was calculated as the LoB + 1.645 x SD of the replicates for the low-level samples and determined as 0.96 mg/L and 1.03 U/mL for the two lots. The claimed LoD is 2.0 U/mL.
LoQ was determined using a set of 10 serum samples. Each sample was tested in five replicates per run, two runs per day, for six days with two reagent lots on one ADVIA Centaur XP system for a total of 60 data points per sample per reagent lot. The LoQ is defined as the mean value of the sample which fulfills the specification for the total within-laboratory imprecision ≤ 20% CV. The results supports that the claimed LoQ is 3.0 U/mL which is the lower limit of the measuring range claimed for the assay.

{5}
To demonstrate that Li-Heparin plasma and K2-EDTA plasma samples yield results comparable with serum samples by the ADVIA Centaur CA 15-3 assay, a study was performed by using 129 serum/K2-EDTA plasma paired samples and 108 serum/Li-heparin plasma paired samples. Paired samples were each tested in singleton with one reagent lot on one ADVIA Centaur XP system. The Demining regression analysis was performed, and the results are summarized in the following table:
| | N | Range (U/mL) | Slope (95% CI) | Intercept (95% CI) | Correlation |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Serum vs. K2-EDTA | 129 | 3.43–199.49 | 0.96 (0.93, 0.99) | 0.46 (0.01, 0.91) | 1.00 |
| Serum vs. Li-heparin | 108 | 3.13–196.11 | 1.02 (1.00, 1.05) | -0.72 (-1.44, -0.01) | 1.00 |
