Indications for Use

The Influenza B Lineage Genotyping Kit contains reagents and controls of the CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel and is intended for use in Real-time RT-PCR assays on an Applied Biosystems (ABI) 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR Instrument in conjunction with clinical and epidemiological information: For the determination of the genetic lineage of human influenza B viruses as B/Victoria or B/Yamagata lineage from viral RNA in upper respiratory tract clinical specimens (including NPS, NS, TS, NA, NW, and NPS/TS) from human patients with signs and symptoms of respiratory infection and/or from viral culture; To provide epidemiologic information for surveillance of the circulating influenza viruses. Performance characteristics for influenza B lineage genotyping were established during a season when influenza B/Victoria and B/Yamagata lineages were found in approximately equal proportion. Negative results do not preclude influenza virus infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other patient management decisions. Conversely, positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.

Device Story

The Influenza B Lineage Genotyping Kit is a component of the CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel. It utilizes real-time RT-PCR technology to detect and differentiate influenza B virus lineages (B/Victoria and B/Yamagata) from viral RNA extracted from upper respiratory tract specimens. The device is intended for use on the Applied Biosystems (ABI) 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR Instrument. It is operated by laboratory personnel in clinical or public health settings to provide epidemiological surveillance data. The output is a genetic lineage determination, which assists healthcare providers in monitoring circulating influenza strains. The modification allows for flexible ordering of specific panel components to manage reagent supply and minimize waste.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data; bench testing only. Performance characteristics established during a season with approximately equal proportions of B/Victoria and B/Yamagata lineages.

Technological Characteristics

Real-time RT-PCR assay; utilizes Applied Biosystems 7500 Fast Dx Real-Time PCR instrument with SDS software version 1.4; requires nucleic acid extraction; detects influenza B/Yamagata and B/Victoria lineages.

Indications for Use

Indicated for human patients with signs/symptoms of respiratory infection or viral culture to determine genetic lineage of influenza B (B/Victoria or B/Yamagata) from upper respiratory tract specimens.

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.

SPECIAL 510(k): Device Modification

OIR Review Memorandum (Decision Making Document is Attached)

To: Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

RE: K140857

This 510(k) submission contains information/data on modifications made to the SUBMITTER'S own Class II, Class III or Class I devices requiring 510(k). The following items are present and acceptable:

1. The name and 510(k) number of the SUBMITTER'S previously cleared device.

CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel

510(k): K132508

2. Submitter's statement that the INDICATION/INTENDED USE of the modified device as described in its labeling HAS NOT CHANGED along with the proposed labeling which includes instructions for use, package labeling, and, if available, advertisements or promotional materials (labeling changes are permitted as long as they do not affect the intended use).

3. A description of the device MODIFICATION(S):

The modification presented in this special 510(k) consisted of a revised package insert for the CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel, Influenza B Lineage Genotyping Kit. Recently, additional assays have been included in the CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel and cleared by FDA to accommodate the new influenza virus subtypes. The consumption of the various assays within the panel may be different since the prevalence of influenza virus types and subtypes vary from season to season. To address the consequent variation in consumption, CDC plans to provide the users with an option to order different configurations of specific components of the panel (including the Influenza B Lineage Genotyping Kit in this special 510(k)) so that their supply of reagents can be managed efficiently, minimizing the waste. The different components of CDC Human Influenza Virus Real-Time RT-PCR Diagnostic Panel will be accompanied by revised labeling (package inserts) and the current submission is to clear another component, i.e., Influenza B Genotyping.

4. The FUNDAMENTAL SCIENTIFIC TECHNOLOGY of the modified device has not changed.

Conversely, positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other viruses. The agent detected may not be the definite cause of disease.
If infection with a novel influenza A virus is suspected based on current clinical and epidemiological screening criteria recommended by public health authorities, specimens should be collected with appropriate infection control precautions for novel virulent influenza viruses and sent to state or local health department for testing. Viral culture should not be attempted unless a BSL 3+ facility is available to receive and culture specimens. | |

6. A Design Control Activities Summary which includes:

A “Declaration of Conformity” statement was submitted for the verification activities, and the manufacturing facility. The statement was signed by the Acting Branch Chief of the Virus Surveillance and Diagnostic Branch, CDC, and the Deputy Branch Chief, Division of Scientific Resources, CDC. The statement indicates:

**Verification Activities**

To the best of my knowledge, the verification activities, as required by the risk analysis for the modification, were performed by the designated individual(s) and the results demonstrate the predetermined acceptance criteria were met.

**Manufacturing Facility**

The CDC Division of Scientific Resources manufacturing facility is in conformance with the design control requirements as specified in 21 CFR 820.30 and the records are available for review.

In conclusion, the modified labeling is truthful and accurate. The changes do not affect the performance of the test and it is therefore substantially equivalent to the current cleared test.

7. A Truthful and Accurate Statement, a 510(k) Summary or Statement and the Indications for Use Enclosure.

The labeling for this modified subject device has been reviewed to verify that the indication/intended use for the device is unaffected by the modification. In addition, the submitter's description of the particular modification(s) and the comparative information between the modified and unmodified devices demonstrate that the fundamental scientific technology has not changed. The submitter has provided the design control information as specified in The New 510(k) Paradigm and on this basis, I recommend the device be determined substantially equivalent to the previously cleared (or their preamendment) device.
