Device Story
MTS Omadacycline is a quantitative antimicrobial susceptibility test (AST) strip. Device consists of specialized paper impregnated with a predefined concentration gradient (0.002-32 µg/mL) of Omadacycline. Used in clinical microbiology laboratories by trained personnel. Strip is placed on inoculated agar media; incubated for 16-20 hours. Antimicrobial agent diffuses into agar, creating a concentration gradient. After incubation, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC) is determined by observing the point of intersection between the bacterial growth inhibition ellipse and the strip. Results assist clinicians in selecting appropriate antibiotic therapy for patients with bacterial infections. Benefits include standardized, quantitative susceptibility data for specific pathogens.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance evaluated by comparing MIC results of the MTS Omadacycline strip against a reference broth microdilution method. Testing included clinical and challenge isolates of the specified Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial species. Results demonstrated essential agreement and categorical agreement within acceptable FDA criteria.

4. Special instrument requirements:
Manual reading only
I. Device Description:
The Omadacycline MIC Test Strip (MTS) consists of specialized paper impregnated with a predefined concentration gradient of omadacycline across 15 two-fold dilutions similar to dilutions used by conventional MIC methods. One side of the strip is labelled with the Omadacycline code (OMC) and the MIC reading scale in $\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$. When the MIC Test Strip is applied onto an inoculated agar surface, the preformed exponential gradient of
{3}
antimicrobial agent is immediately transferred to the agar matrix. After 16-20 hours incubation, a symmetrical inhibition ellipse centered along the strip is formed. The MIC is read directly from the scale in terms of $\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$ at the point where the edge of the inhibition ellipse intersects the MIC Test Strip. Since MTS strip generates MIC values which fall between two-fold dilutions for interpretation, the MIC value read is recorded to the next two-fold dilution value.

L. Test Principle:
MTS are made of specialized paper impregnated with a predefined concentration gradient of antibiotic, across 15 two-fold dilutions similar to dilutions used by conventional MIC methods. When the MIC Test Strip is applied onto an inoculated agar surface, the preformed exponential gradient of antimicrobial agent is immediately transferred to the agar matrix. After 16-20 hours incubation, a symmetrical inhibition ellipse centered along the strip is formed. The MIC is read directly from the scale in terms of $\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$ at the point where the edge of the inhibition ellipse intersects the strip MIC Test Strip.
Growth along the entire gradient (i.e., no inhibition ellipse) indicates that the MIC value is greater than or equal to $(\geq)$ the highest value on the scale. An inhibition ellipse that intersects below the lower end of the scale is read as less than $(<)$ the lowest value. An MIC of 0.125 $\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$ is considered to be the same as $0.12~\mu \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL}$ for reporting purposes. Given that omadacycline is a bacteriostatic drug, the ellipse should be interpreted at $80\%$ inhibition when trailing is observed.
An MTS MIC value which falls between standard two-fold dilutions must be rounded up to the next standard upper two-fold value before categorization.
M. Performance Characteristics:
1. Analytical performance:
a. Precision/Reproducibility:
Reproducibility testing was conducted at three sites using ten Gram-negative and ten Gram-positive organisms. Each isolate was tested in triplicate over three days. The mode of MIC values was determined for each isolate and the reproducibility was calculated based on the number of MIC values that fell within $\pm 1$ doubling dilution of the mode. The Gram-negative reproducibility panel included four $E.$ coli, three $K.$ pneumoniae, and three $E.$ cloacae isolates and the Gram-positive panel included two methicillin-resistant $S.$ aureus, two methicillin-susceptible $S.$ aureus, two $S.$ lugdunensis, two vancomycin-susceptible $E.$ faecalis, and two vancomycin-resistant $E.$ faecalis isolates. All MIC results were on scale. The testing resulted in overall reproducibility of greater than $95\%$ for both Gram-negative and Gram-positive isolates.

## 2. Comparison studies:
a. Method comparison with predicate device:
The MTS, Omadacycline was evaluated at three sites located within the United States. Each clinical isolate was tested one time by MTS, Omadacycline and the reference method using the same initial standardized suspension. A total of 389 clinical non-fastidious Gram-positive isolates of which 79.7% were tested within six months of isolation (contemporary isolates) and 496 non-fastidious Gram-negative isolates were tested of which 65.7% were tested within six months of isolation. The Gram-positive organisms included 64 methicillin-susceptible S. aureus, 69 methicillin-resistant S. aureus, 60 vancomycin-susceptible E. faecalis, 48 vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis, 42 vancomycin-susceptible E. faecium, 46 vancomycin-resistant E. faecium isolates, and 60 S. lugdunensis isolates. The Gram-negative organisms included 15 C. freundii, 15 C. koseri, 150 E. cloacae, 120 E. coli, 30 K. aerogenes, 15 K. oxytoca, and 151 K. pneumoniae isolates.
Challenge testing was performed at one internal site. A total of 77 Gram-positive and 82 Gram-negative challenge isolates were tested. The Gram-positive organisms included one methicillin-susceptible S. aureus, 41 methicillin-resistant S. aureus, 12 vancomycin-susceptible E. faecalis, one vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis, one vancomycin-susceptible E. faecium, 11 vancomycin-resistant E. faecium isolates, and 10 S. lugdunensis isolates. The Gram-negative organisms included two C. freundii,
7
{7}
two C. koseri, 20 E. cloacae, 20 E. coli, five K. aerogenes, five K. oxytoca, and 28 K. pneumoniae isolates.
Results obtained with the Liofilchem MIC Test Strip (MTS), Omadacycline were compared to results obtained with the CLSI broth microdilution reference panel. The reference panel contained two-fold serial dilutions of Omadacycline with a range of 0.002 – 32 µg/mL. The testing conditions for the reference method were consistent with CLSI guidelines as listed in the CLSI document M07-A10. Isolated colonies from an overnight blood agar plate were suspended in saline to achieve a 0.5 McFarland standard turbidity (approximately 10⁸ CFU/mL). Testing conditions consisted of incubation of the inoculated Mueller Hinton agar plates in an inverted position at 35°C ± 2° for 16-20 hours. At the end of incubation, the MIC value determined at 80% inhibition of growth along the strip was compared to MIC results obtained with the reference method. Visual aids were provided in reading guides to each laboratory to assist in interpretation.
The performance for the total (combined clinical and challenge) 466 Gram-positive and 578 Gram-negative isolates is summarized in Table 3 and 4 below.

EA – Essential agreement
CA – Category agreement
EVAL – Evaluable isolates
R – Resistant isolates
maj – Major errors
vmj – Very major errors
min – Minor errors
Essential Agreement (EA) is when the Liofilchem MIC Test Strip (MST) results agree exactly or within one doubling dilution of the reference broth microdilution results. Category Agreement (CA) is when the Liofilchem MIC Test Strip (MST) result interpretation agrees exactly with the reference broth microdilution result interpretation.
The overall performance of S. aureus (both MRSA and MSSA) isolates when evaluated with ABSSSI breakpoints is acceptable with 98.9% EA and 96.0% CA. The overall performance of S. aureus (MSSA only) isolates when assessed with CAPB breakpoints is acceptable with 98.5% EA and 96.9% CA. According to the drug label for Omadacycline, only MSSA isolates are indicated for CAPB; however, MRSA were included in the study to further assess the performance of the Omadacycline MTS. The inclusion of MRSA isolates in the study demonstrated equivalent performance (i.e., 98.9% EA and 96.6% CA). There were no major or very major errors.
The evaluation of S. lugdunensis isolates yielded a performance of 100% EA and 87.1% CA (12.9% minor error rate). Given that all results were within EA and that there were no major or very major errors, the overall performance was deemed acceptable.
The evaluation of E. faecalis (VSE and VRE) isolates yielded a performance of 98.3% EA and 84.3% CA (15.7% minor error rate). Given that all results were within EA and that there were no major or very major errors, the overall performance was deemed acceptable. In addition, there was no significant difference noted in the performance between vancomycin-susceptible E. faecalis and vancomycin-resistant E. faecalis isolates.
The overall performance of E. faecium (VSE and VRE) isolates is acceptable with 100% EA and 98.0% CA. There were no major or very major errors and no difference noted in the performance between vancomycin-susceptible E. faecium and vancomycin-resistant E. faecium isolates.
The overall performance of all Enterobacteriaceae isolates is acceptable with 99.7% EA and 95.0% CA. In addition, the performance for each Gram-negative organism was evaluated separately and results for each demonstrated >90% EA and >90% CA with no major or very major errors and was, therefore, deemed acceptable.
## Resistance Mechanisms:
Molecular characterization of challenge isolates was provided with respect to tetracycline-specific resistance mechanisms for both MTS and reference method to include tet(A), tet(D), tet(G) for Gram-negative organisms and tet(K) and tet(M) for Gram-positive organisms. Specifically, six K. pneumoniae and three E. cloacae encoding tet(A) were evaluated in which all isolates were found to be resistant to omadacycline by
10
{10}
both methods. In addition, one $E.$ cloacae isolate encoding $tet(\mathrm{G})$ was found to be resistant to omadacycline. Furthermore, one $E.$ cloacae isolate encoding $tet(\mathrm{D})$ was found to be intermediate by both methods. Regarding Gram-positive isolates, one $E.$ faecalis and two $S.$ aureus isolates encoding $tet(\mathrm{M})$ were tested. The $E.$ faecalis isolate and one of the two $S.$ aureus isolates were found to be resistant while the other was found to be susceptible by both methods. In addition, two $S.$ aureus isolate encoding $tet(\mathrm{k})$ were evaluated and found to be resistant. Given that some claimed organisms with their associated resistance mechanisms were not available [e.g., $tet(\mathrm{B}), tet(\mathrm{L})$ ] during the time of testing, the following limitation was included in the labeling:
- Resistance mechanism characterization was not available for all organisms at the time of comparative testing, and therefore the performance of the MTS Omadacycline for non-fastidious gram-negative bacilli and gram-positive cocci is unknown for the following: Enterobacteriaceae [tet(B)]; Enterococcus species [tet(K), tet(L)]; S. aureus [tet(L)]
# Trending:
Trending was assessed separately for Gram-positive and Gram-negative groups using data for challenge and clinical isolates (Tables 5 and 6). No significant trending (i.e., $\geq 30\%$ difference) was observed for Gram-negative, S. aureus, or E. faecalis isolates; however, trending was observed for S. lugdunensis which tended to be in exact agreement or higher when compared to the reference method. The difference between higher and lower dilutions for this organism was $>30\%$ . Given the observed trending, the following was included in the labeling:
- Liofilchem MIC Test Strip (MTS) Omadacycline MIC values tended to be in exact agreement or at least one doubling dilution higher when testing S. lugdunensis compared to the CLSI reference broth microdilution.
