Purpose for Submission: Addition of cefpodoxime on the BD Phoenix™ gram-negative ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels C. Measurand: Cefpodoxime 0.125 – 8 µg/mL D. Type of Test: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test (AST) colorimetric oxidation-reduction, growth-based E. Applicant: Becton, Dickinson & Company F. Proprietary and Established Names: BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System – Cefpodoxime 0.125 – 8 µg/mL G. Regulatory Information: 1. Regulation section: 21 CFR 866.1645 Fully Automated Short-Term Incubation Cycle Antimicrobial Susceptibility System 2. Classification: II 3. Product code: LON System, Test, Automated, Antimicrobial Susceptibility, Short Incubation 4. Panel: 83 Microbiology H. Intended Use: 1. Intended use(s): Cefpodoxime at concentrations of 0.125 – 8 µg/mL on the Gram Negative (GN) ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels is intended for use with the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System for in vitro quantitative determination of antimicrobial susceptibility by minimal inhibitory concentration (MIC) of most {1} Gram-negative aerobic and facultative anaerobic bacteria isolates from pure culture for Enterobacteriaceae and non-Enterobacteriaceae and most Gram-positive bacteria isolates from pure culture belonging to the genera Staphylococcus, Enterococcus, and Streptococcus. 2. Indication(s) for use: This application is indicated for the addition of cefpodoxime at concentrations of 0.125 – 8 µg/mL on the BD Phoenix™ gram-negative ID/AST or AST only Phoenix panels 3. Special conditions for use statement(s): For prescription use only Results of Proteus mirabilis, Morganella, and Providencia species have been excluded in the BD Phoenix™ therefore no results will be reported. An alternate method should be performed when this combination is identified. 4. Special instrument requirements: Not Applicable I. Device Description: This submission is for AST Panel only. The ID System was not reviewed. The BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System includes instrumentation and software, sealed and self-inoculating molded polystyrene trays with 136 micro-wells containing dried reagents, and specific inoculum broth formulations for ID and AST Indicator. The organism to be tested must be a pure culture and be preliminarily identified as gram positive or gram negative. Colonies are then suspended in broth, and equated to a 0.5 McFarland with the recommendation to use the BD CrystalSpec™ Nephelometer. A further dilution is made into an AST broth, which contains an AST indicator, prior to inoculating the panel. The AST broth is a cation-adjusted formulation of Mueller-Hinton broth containing 0.01% Tween 80. After adding the indicator solution to the AST inoculum the color is blue and after inoculation and incubation changes to pink then to colorless as reduction in the panel well proceeds. Inoculated panels are barcode scanned and loaded into the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System instrument where the panels are continuously incubated at 35°C. The AST has a final inoculum of 5 × 10⁵ CFU/ml. The instrument incubates, reads and records the results of the biochemical substrates and antimicrobial agents and interprets the reactions to give an ID of the isolate and MIC value and category interpretation of the antimicrobial agents. Organisms growing in the presence of a given antimicrobic agent reduce the indicator, signaling organism growth and resistance to the antimicrobic agent. Organisms killed or inhibited by a given antimicrobic do not cause reduction of the indicator and therefore do not produce a color change. Additional interpretation is done using software driven "EXPERT" System using rules derived from the CLSI documentation. 2 {2} Readings are taken every 20 minutes with an AST result available between 4-16 hours. This is only an autoread result; no manual readings are possible with this system. ## J. Substantial Equivalence Information: 1. Predicate device name(s): VITEK® System 2.

Standard/Guidance Document Referenced (if applicable): “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Antimicrobial Susceptibility Test Systems; Guidance for Industry and FDA”; CLSI M7 (M100-S16) “Methods for Dilution Antimicrobial Susceptibility Tests for Bacteria That Grow Aerobically; Approved Standard.” L. Test Principle: The AST portion of the BD Phoenix™ Automated Microbiology System is a broth based microdilution method that utilizes a redox indicator (colorimetric oxidation-reduction) to enhance detection of organism growth. The MIC is determined by comparing growth in wells containing serial two-fold dilutions of an antibiotic to the growth in “growth control wells” which contains no antibiotic. M. Performance Characteristics (if/when applicable): 1. Analytical performance: a. Precision/Reproducibility: Nine gram-negative on-scale organisms were evaluated for site to site and inter site reproducibility demonstrating >95% reproducibility. The ten isolate study described in the guidance document was used (10 organisms tested 3 times on 3 days at 3 sites). b. Linearity/assay reportable range: Not applicable c. Traceability, Stability, Expected values (controls, calibrators, or methods): In the original clinical trial, the FDA and CLSI recommended Quality Control (QC) isolate, E. coli ATCC 25922 was tested on every test occasion with the reference method and the BD Phoenix™. The reference method QC results were in range for every day tested. The BD Phoenix™ was tested a sufficient number of times to demonstrate that the system can produce QC results in the recommended ranges. Cefpodoxime QC Table | ORGANISM | conc.
