# K. Test Principle:
The Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV assay is based on TaqMan® chemistry and uses an enzyme with DNA polymerase and 5'-3' exonuclease activities. During DNA amplification. this enzyme cleaves the probe bound to the complementary DNA sequence, separating the quencher dye from the reporter dye. This step generates an increase in fluorescent signal upon excitation by a light source of the appropriate wavelength. With each cycle, additional dye molecules are separated from their quenchers resulting in additional signal. If sufficient
{4}------------------------------------------------
fluorescence is achieved on the Life Technologies QuantStudio™ Dx, the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx, or the Cepheid SmartCycler® II System, the sample is reported as positive for the detected nucleic acid.
The following is a summary of the procedure:
Sample Collection: Obtain lesion swabs using standard techniques from symptomatic patients. Transport, store, and process these specimens according to established laboratory procedures.
Sample Preparation: Remove 100 uL of each clinical specimen from the original collection tube and place into a clean microcentrifuge tube. Heat at 60°C for 5 minutes, then remove from heat and add 25 uL of Process Buffer within 60 minutes according to the detailed instructions for use. The Process Buffer contains a buffer and diluents as well as the PRC. The PRC serves to monitor in the prepared specimen, assures that adequate amplification has taken place, and confirms that the overall process was performed correctly.
Rehydration of Master Mix: Rehydrate the lyophilized Master Mix using 135 uL of Rehydration Solution. The Master Mix contains oligonucleotide primers, fluorophore and quencher-labeled probes targeting conserved regions of HSV-1, and VZV, as well as the PRC sequence.
Nucleic Acid Amplification and Detection: Add 15 uL of the rehydrated Master Mix to each reaction tube or plate well. Then add 5 uL of nucleic acids (specimen with PRC) to the plate well or appropriately labeled reaction tube. Place the plate or tube into either the QuantStudio™ Dx, Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx or SmartCycler® II instruments, respectively. Once the reaction tube or plate is added to the instrument, initiate the assay protocol. This protocol initiates amplification of the DNA targets.

# 1. Analytical performance:
# a. Reproducibility/ Precision
Reproducibility: The reproducibility of the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay was evaluated at 3 laboratory sites (two external, one in-house). Reproducibility was assessed using a panel of 6 simulated samples that include medium positive, low positive, high negative and negative HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV samples.
The panels and controls were processed and tested on the Life Technologies QuantStudio™ Dx, the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx, and the Cepheid SmartCycler® II System. Panels and controls were tested at each site by 2 operators for 5 days (triplicate testing x 2 operators x 5 days x 3 sites = 90 results per level for each virus).

### Kit Stability:
The stability of the Lyra Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay is currently being assessed in a real-time study using 3 production lots of the kits. All kits used in the study are being stored at 2° to 8°C. The test protocol utilizes 2x LoD virus dilutions of HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV. These dilutions are being tested in triplicate according to the product insert on the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx. The Ct values for each analyte (HSV-1, HSV-2, and VZV) generated at each time point is being compared to the Ct values generated at the time of production of the kits. The Ct values at a stability time point must be within 3 Cts of the result at the initial time point for a kit to pass. The real-time testing data collected thus far demonstrates stability up to 243 days at 2° to 8°C. All time points have passed for each analyte.
### Rehydrated Master Mix Stability:
A study was performed on the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx to determine the effect of time and temperature on rehydrated Master Mix stability. The Lyra™ DirectHSV 1 + 2/VZV Master Mix was rehydrated, stored at -20°C, 2° to 8°C and room temperature (RT) (20° to 25°C) for various times and then tested with samples at 2x LoD HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV. Based on the data generated in this study, the final stability claims for rehydrated Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Master Mix are summarized in the tables below:

- e. Detection limit (LoD)
The analytical sensitivity (Limit of Detection or LoD) of the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay was determined on each instrument in three separate studies using quantified (TCID50/mL) stocks of two strains of HSV-1, two strains of HSV-2 and two strains of VZV serially diluted in a negative matrix. Testing was performed concurrently using the same serial dilutions on each instrument. Analytical sensitivity (LoD) is defined as the lowest concentration at which 95% of all replicates tested positive.

# g. Analytical specificity:
Cross-Reactivity and Inhibition by Other Microorganisms:
A study was performed on the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx to evaluate the performance of the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 +2 /VZV Assay in the presence of seventy (70) other microorganisms that might be found in lesion specimens. The study evaluated the potential cross reactivity with the assay (using negative samples) and the potential inhibition by other microorganisms as follows. Each potentially interfering or cross-reactive microorganism was tested in negative matrix (for crossreactivity) or in the presence of 2x LoD HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV viruses (for inhibition). Clinically relevant levels of viruses and bacteria are typically 10°cfu/ml or higher for bacteria and 10 pfu/ml or higher for viruses.

Treponema pallidum could not be sourced for the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay study and therefore an in silico analysis was required to confirm no crossreactivity of this organism with the HSV-1, HSV-2, or VZV primers. The in silico analysis determined that the three primer pairs will not cross-react with T. pallidum under the Lyra™ Directassay conditions. Therefore, the presence of the
{15}------------------------------------------------
organism should not interfere with the assay.
None of the seventy (70) microorganisms listed above cross-reacted with the the assay or interfered with the ability of the assay to detect 2x LoD HSV1, HSV2 or VZV.
Interfering Substances:
A study was performed on the Applied Biosystems® 7500 Fast Dx to evaluate the performance of the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay in the presence of twentysix (26) clinically relevant levels of potentially interfering substances that might be present in lesion specimens.
None of the twenty-six (26) potentially interfering substances interfered with the
{16}------------------------------------------------
detection of 2x LoD HSV-1, HSV-2, or VZV, or were cross-reactive with the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay.
### Competitive Interference:
To evaluate whether competitive interference exists in the Lyra™ Direct HSV 1 + 2/VZV Assay when HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV are present in the same reaction a study was performed on all three instruments. HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV stocks at 2x LoD concentrations were tested in the presence of varying amounts of another analyte in order to determine if competitive interference exists.
No competitive interference was observed on any instrument with 2x LoD concentrations of HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV when multiple two-analyte combinations of HSV-1, HSV-2 and VZV were tested in the same reaction with 2x, 10x, 100x, 1000x, and 10,000x LoD concentrations.

Two short videos show you everything — or skip straight to the written tutorial if you'd rather read. You can reopen this any time from the Tutorial button in the top bar.
Part 1 — Search, results, and everyday workflows 16 min
Part 2 — Embeddings: the galaxy map 3 min
1. Search: exact and fuzzy
Type a phrase like "coronary artery calcification" into the search box. You get two kinds of results. Exact results match the literal phrase — prefix searches work ("coronary artery calcificati") but suffix searches do not. Fuzzy results match on the meaning and intent of your phrase rather than the exact words, and are sorted by relevance score. Hover over the Exact or Fuzzy badge on any row to see exactly why it matched.
Use the checkboxes above the results to narrow: SaMD keeps only software-only devices, AI / ML keeps only devices with AI.
Exact vs. fuzzy search: what's the difference?
Exact matches on the literal phrase (prefix search works, suffix does not). Fuzzy matches on the meaning and intent of the phrase rather than the exact words. Hover over the badge on any row to see why it matched.
You search "coronary artery calcification" and want only software devices with AI. What two filters do you apply?
Narrow by SaMD (software-only devices), then narrow by AI/ML (devices with AI).
2. The results table
Scroll right in the results table. The intended use is extracted for you — no need to open the PDF. The device story gives a high-level snapshot of what the device does and how it's used. The AI Performance sub-table shows each output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, and development/test dataset descriptions — the same format Innolitics uses for regulatory strategy outputs, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. It is AI-generated but has been very reliable in practice.
Where do you find a device's intended use without opening the PDF?
Scroll right in the search results table. The intended use column is extracted for you; no need to dig into the 510(k) summary PDF.
What does the AI Performance sub-table show, and why is it useful?
Output name, acceptance criteria, observed values, development dataset description, and test dataset description. It's the same format we use for regulatory strategy output and Fast 510(k) input, and the fastest high-level fingerprint of an AI device. AI-generated but reliable in practice.
3. Judging fuzzy relevance
Fuzzy results trail off in relevance as you scroll. Use three signals to decide how far down to go: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether your target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, you're past the relevant zone. A top hit with a low score (~0.4) and a stretched explanation is a hint the closest predicates are far away — the project may be headed for De Novo. Note the fuzzy search is a pattern match: it doesn't handle negation ("not") well, and hardware devices can appear — filter by SaMD/AI ML to cut them.
How do you judge how far down fuzzy search results to go?
Use the relevancy signals: the fuzzy badge explanations, the intended use column, and whether the target output (e.g., Cobb angle) still appears in the AI Performance sub-table. Once it stops appearing, results are trailing off in relevancy.
4. Device detail page: chat and citations
Click a device name to open its detail page: device facts on the left, a chat window on the right. Ask something like "Describe the training data". The answer carries little citation bubbles — click one to jump to the highlighted passage in the source PDF, so you can verify every AI answer against the document. There's also a Download PDF button for sharing.
How do you verify an AI chat answer on the device detail page?
Click the citation bubbles to jump to the relevant highlight in the source document.
Reading rule for every project: how many summaries do you read in full?
At least the three most relevant 510(k) or De Novo summaries, in full. After that, use targeted chat questions to confirm your memory quickly. The tool supports this professional habit — it doesn't replace it.
5. Side-by-side comparison
Select multiple rows in the results table (aim for under ~10), then open the PDF Viewer tab. Ask one question — it goes to all selected devices in parallel, each with citations. This is the fastest way to compare and contrast devices: training data, PCCP scope, how they handled adding new scanners, and so on.
What does the side-by-side PDF viewer mode do?
Select multiple devices, open the PDF viewer tab, and ask one question (e.g., "Describe the training data"). It queries all selected devices simultaneously with citations, so you can compare and contrast quickly.
6. Collections
With rows selected, go to the Collections tab and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). Reload that selection any time — before a client call, pull up the collection and ask questions across all of its devices at once.
How do you save a set of selected devices for later use?
Select the rows, go to the Collections tab, and create a labeled collection (e.g., "Cobb Angle Project"). You can reload the selection anytime and carry it into the PDF viewer and other tabs that support selections.
7. Product codes and the regulations tree
Click a product code in the results to jump to it in the regulations tree — identification text, sibling product codes, and devices you can open in a PDF viewer on the right. Click a regulation number to see its identification, special controls, and related product codes. You can also search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree. Always read the special controls if any exist for your device — it broadens your search and sharpens pre-kickoff research.
What can you do from the regulations tree view?
Browse product codes and regulation numbers, read the identification text and special controls, browse sibling product codes, open device PDFs on the right, and search by product code or regulation number at the top of the tree.
8. Chart view
Click Show Chart and segment by regulation number (or product code) to see which regulations dominate your result set. Clicking a regulation takes you into the regulations tree. Great for spotting that most matches are, say, hardware laparoscopic devices — a cue to go back and filter.
How do you see which regulations dominate a search result set?
Click "Show Chart" and segment by Regulation Number. Clicking a regulation takes you to the regulations tree.
9. The predicate graph
Open the Predicates tab for a family-tree view of predicate relationships. Click a node to trace its parents and children; selections from search carry over pre-selected. Commonly predicated devices are worth reading — a lot of people predicated them for a reason. The visual lineage is also handy on client calls, e.g. to show how a predicate family evolved and justify why your predicate still holds.
In the predicate graph, why are commonly predicated devices worth reading?
A lot of people predicated them for a reason. Clicking a node traces parents and children, and selections from search carry over pre-selected.
10. Embeddings: the galaxy map
The Embeddings tab plots every matching document in a 2-D "galaxy map" where semantically similar devices cluster together. Hover or click clusters to explore, and let AI label the clusters for you. Embeddings beat product codes for grouping: two devices can carry different product codes (LLZ vs. QIH) yet do the same thing — the embedding captures the meaning of the intended use and device story. This is also exactly how retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) works under the hood, and it makes a great visual on client calls.
Try it yourself
Head to the search page and work through a few of these AI/ML fuzzy searches to build intuition: perivascular fat on CT · aortic valve calcification opportunistic screening on noncontrast CT · breast cancer prediction on digital pathology slides · autism detection · gestational age prediction · a hearing aid that can also detect a pulse · foundation model based analysis of ECG · large language models · penetration test. Watch how the relevance scores, intended use, and AI Performance tables tell you when results stop being meaningful.
