Indications for Use
The Lyra RSV + hMPV Assay is a multiplexed real-time RT-PCR assay for the qualitative detection and differentiation of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and human metapneumovirus (hMPV) viral RNA in nasal and nasopharyngeal swab specimens from individuals suspected of respiratory tract infections by their healthcare provider. The assay is intended to aid in the differential diagnosis of RSV and hMPV infections in humans. Negative results do not preclude RSV and hMPV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. The assay is intended for use by professional laboratory personnel.
Device Story
Multiplex RT-PCR assay; detects RSV and hMPV RNA from nasal/nasopharyngeal swabs; utilizes automated nucleic acid extraction (NucliSENS easyMAG or EMAG); performs amplification in single tube; uses target-specific primers and fluorescent-labeled probes; requires external RT-PCR instrumentation (QuantStudio Dx, 7500 Fast Dx, or SmartCycler II). Used in clinical laboratory settings; results interpreted by healthcare providers to aid differential diagnosis of respiratory infections; does not differentiate RSV subtypes or hMPV sub-lineages; negative results do not rule out infection; positive results do not rule out co-infection or bacterial etiology.
Clinical Evidence
Verification and validation activities included a Limit of Detection (LoD) equivalency study and a clinical equivalence study. Testing demonstrated that the modified device met all predetermined acceptance criteria and performed equivalently to the predicate device (K131813). No new safety or effectiveness issues were raised.
Technological Characteristics
Multiplex real-time RT-PCR assay. Nucleic acid extraction performed via bioMérieux NucliSENS EMAG system. Analyzes nasal and nasopharyngeal swab specimens. Fundamental technology is nucleic acid amplification; no changes to core assay chemistry or detection principle.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection and identification of RSV and hMPV RNA in nasal and nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection; intended to aid in differential diagnosis in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological risk factors.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A respiratory viral panel multiplex nucleic acid assay is a qualitative in vitro diagnostic device intended to simultaneously detect and identify multiple viral nucleic acids extracted from human respiratory specimens or viral culture. The detection and identification of a specific viral nucleic acid from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of respiratory infection aids in the diagnosis of respiratory viral infection when used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. The device is intended for detection and identification of a combination of the following viruses:(1) Influenza A and Influenza B; (2) Influenza A subtype H1 and Influenza A subtype H3; (3) Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype A and Respiratory Syncytial Virus subtype B; (4) Parainfluenza 1, Parainfluenza 2, and Parainfluenza 3 virus; (5) Human Metapneumovirus; (6) Rhinovirus; and (7) Adenovirus.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls are:(1) FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Respiratory Viral Panel Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assay;” (2) For a device that detects and identifies Human Metapneumovirus, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) Using Nucleic Acid Assays;” and (3) For a device that detects and differentiates Influenza A subtype H1 and subtype H3, FDA's guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Testing for Detection and Differentiation of Influenza A Virus Subtypes Using Multiplex Nucleic Acid Assays.” See § 866.1(e) for the availability of these guidance documents.
