5. liat Assay Specific Package (LASP)
## B Principle of Operation:
A specimen in cobas PCR Media is collected and then transferred into the assay tube using a transfer pipette. The assay tube is loaded into the analyzer and processing begins. The cobas liat assay tube uses a flexible tube as a sample processing vessel and contains all requisite PCR reagents pre-packed in tube segments that are separated by breakable seals. When a cobas liat assay tube containing a raw biological sample is inserted into the cobas liat analyzer, multiple sample processing actuators in the cobas liat analyzer compress the cobas liat assay tube to selectively release the reagents, moving the sample from one segment to the next, and controlling reaction conditions.
The analyzer automates sample preparation by mixing the sample with an internal control, lysis reagents and liat Magnetic Particles, which are then incubated for nucleic acid binding to the liat Magnetic Particles, and then washed to remove possible inhibitors. Subsequently, the nucleic acid is eluted from the liat Magnetic Particles, mixed with MasterMix and cofactor, and transferred alternately between assay tube segments at different temperatures for rapid PCR amplification and real-time detection.
An embedded microprocessor controls and coordinates these actions to perform all required assay processes with no user intervention required. The detection unit monitors the reaction in real-time while an on-board computer analyzes the collected data and outputs an interpreted result. All assay steps are performed within the closed and self-contained cobas liat assay tube, minimizing cross-contamination between samples. The sample to result time is approximately 20 minutes.
## C Instrument Description Information:
1. Instrument Name:
cobas liat System (Analyzer)
2. Specimen Identification:
The cobas liat system maintains positive identification of each sample and assay tube during processing and analysis by means of barcode labels.
Before starting a run, the user is required to scan the assay tube barcode and then scan the sample barcode. The user then transfers the sample into the assay tube and is required to scan the assay tube barcode again before inserting the assay tube into the analyzer and starting the run.

3. Specimen Sampling and Handling:
Specimen sampling and handling during the assay is controlled automatically using multiple sample processing modules contained within the cobas liat System.
4. Calibration:
Not applicable.
5. Quality Controls:
- External Control
Before using a new lot of cobas liat CT/NG/MG or cobas liat CT/NG assay tubes, the "Lot Validation" procedure must be performed on the analyzer to validate the cobas liat CT/NG/MG or cobas liat CT/NG assay tube lot. The procedure includes running a negative control and a positive control in separate runs. After processing is completed for each control, the system will inform the user that the control result has been accepted. The user can now use that specific lot of assay tubes for processing samples.
- Internal Control
An armored RNA is included in the cobas liat CT/NG/MG assay tube. This control acts to monitor the successful execution of the entire assay, from nucleic acid extraction from the targeted microorganisms, amplification, and detection and reporting. The internal control also acts to identify any PCR inhibitors detected in the sample.

A supplemental reproducibility study was performed at one site across different lots, days, operators and instruments for cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test for the detection of CT in urine from urine panels prepared at negative, 1x-2x and 3x-5xLOD concentration levels. There were six total untrained operators and the level of instructional material were the same for this supplemental Reproducibility study. Each operator tested one panel per day for five non-consecutive days for each lot (one complete panel consisted of three panel members). This supplemental Reproducibility Study was executed with a total of 810 evaluable tests on urine panel members. Table 7 demonstrates the percentage agreement with the expected results for each CT panel member, evaluated in vaginal swab or urine clinical matrix, respectively. The average reported Ct value and measurements of variance for CT panel members in vaginal swab and urine clinical matrices are summarized in Table 8. These tables report the following measures of variance: between-instrument, between-lot, between-day, between operator per run, within-run, and total variation.

A panel of 181 strains of bacteria, fungi and viruses, including those commonly found in patient specimens, 52 representative strains of non-gonorrhoeae Neisseria species and other phylogenetically unrelated organisms, were tested to assess analytical specificity. The organisms listed in Table 9 were spiked at concentrations of $\geq 1 \times 10^{6}$ units/mL* for bacteria or fungi and $\geq 1 \times 10^{5}$ units/mL for viruses into pools of negative vaginal swab specimens collected in cobas PCR Media and negative urine specimens stabilized in cobas PCR Media. Testing was performed with each potential interfering organism in the absence of, as well as mixed with, CT, NG, and MG cultures at $\sim 3 \times$ LoD.
Results indicated that 180 of the non-target organisms tested did not generate any false positive or false negative results due to cross-reactivity or interference. One strain of Neisseria lactamica (CCUG 26479), at concentrations greater than $1 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{CFU/mL}$ , interfered with detection of NG at $\sim 3 \times$ LoD. At $1 \times 10^{4} \mathrm{CFU/mL}$ , this N. lactamica strain did

not interfere with detection of NG at $\sim 3\mathrm{x}$ LoD, nor did 8 additional strains of $N.$ lactamica when tested at concentrations $\geq 1\times 10^{6}$ CFU/ml.
*Four bacteria could only be tested at a concentration below $1 \times 10^{6}$ units/mL and above $7 \times 10^{4}$ units/mL due to low stock titers.

# Exogenous Substance Interference
The effects of potentially interfering exogenous products that may be present in urine or vaginal swab clinical specimens were evaluated at the concentration listed in Table 10. Testing was executed using pooled analyte negative clinical matrix spiked with potential interferents at clinically relevant concentrations. Interferents were tested in CT/NG/MG negative specimen pools as well as in pools spiked with CT/NG/MG at $\sim 3\mathrm{x}$ LoD for each specimen type, using one lot of reagents. Two culture subtypes were evaluated for each analyte and segregated into two separate multianalyte panels. Five replicates each of CT/NG/MG negative sample and CT/NG/MG positive sample (for each of two culture subtypes per microorganism) were tested with each exogenous substance in each specimen type, except for Azo Urinary Pain Relief, which was tested in urine only.
Of the products tested, no interference was observed in 15 substances when tested at concentrations of $1.5\mathrm{mg / ml}$ . Azo Urinary Pain Relief and carbomer-containing Replens Long-Lasting Vaginal Moisturizer resulted in false negative results in at least one replicate when tested at higher concentrations. Azo Urinary Pain Relief and Replens Long-Lasting Vaginal Moisturizer at concentrations greater than $0.5\mathrm{mg / mL}$ and $1.0\mathrm{mg / mL}$ , respectively, may interfere with the assay performance. Levels of substances tolerated by the assay for all specimen types are shown in Table 10.

# Endogenous Substance Interference
Endogenous substances that may be present in urine or vaginal swab clinical specimens were evaluated at the concentration listed in Table 13. Testing was executed using pooled clinical specimens spiked with potential endogenous interferents at levels expected in a typical clinical sample. Endogenous substances were tested in CT/NG/MG negative specimen pools as well as in positive specimen pools spiked with CT/NG/MG at $\sim 3\mathrm{x}$ LoD for each relevant specimen type using one lot of reagents. Five replicates each of CT/NG/MG negative sample and CT/NG/MG positive sample (for each of two culture subtypes per microorganism) were tested with each endogenous substance in each relevant sample type. For all endogenous substances tested, no interference was observed. Levels of endogenous substances tolerated by the assay for each specimen types are shown in Table 11.

# Competitive Inhibition
To assess competitive inhibition between CT, NG, and MG, at total of six different combinations of low concentration of target ( $\sim 2\mathrm{x}$ LoD) were mixed with high concentrations of the other targets in both urine and vaginal swab clinical specimen matrices. Each combination was tested in replicates of 10 using one lot of reagents.
Testing results indicated that when one or two target microorganisms were present at high concentrations, no interference was observed for microorganisms that were present at low concentrations ( $\sim 2\mathrm{x}$ LoD), when tested in both urine and vaginal swab clinical specimen matrices.

Testing has currently been conducted for 10 months and testing will continue for a total of 25 months. The sponsor included the evaluation criteria and the acceptance criteria in the $510(\mathrm{k})$ submission. Currently, the results of the testing support a shelf life claim for the cobas liat CT/NG/MG assay tube of nine months at $2 - 8^{\circ}\mathrm{C}$ .
# 6. Detection Limit:
The limit of detection of the cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test was determined by analyzing a dilution series of two representative strains/serovars of CT (Serovar D and I), NG (Strains 2948 and 891), and MG (Strains M30 and G37). The CT, NG, and MG cultures were diluted in pooled negative urine (UR) or pooled negative vaginal swab (VS) clinical specimens to seven concentration levels. All levels were tested with at least 20 replicates per concentration tested across three unique lots of reagents, over the course of seven non-consecutive days. LoD for each specimen type is shown in Table 13 for CT, NG, and MG, respectively, as the target concentration which can be detected in $\geq 95\%$ of the replicates for all lots.
Table 13: Limit of Detection for CT, NG, and MG in Urine and Vaginal Swabs
| Specimen | Strain | CT (EB/mL) | NG (CFU/mL) | MG (cp/mL) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Urine | 1 | 0.085 | 0.250 | 0.250 |
| | 2 | 0.784 | 0.200 | 0.500 |
| Vaginal Swab | 1 | 0.170 | 0.500 | 0.250 |
| | 2 | 0.784 | 0.200 | 0.250 |
Strain 1 combination (CT serovar D, NG Strain 2948, MG Strain M30)
Strain 2 combination (CT serovar I, NG Strain 891, MG Strain G37)
To demonstrate that multi-analyte spike-in (MS) panel members did not impact the detected LoD for each individual analyte, the LoD for single-analyte spike-in (SS) was also evaluated and compared to the LoD determined for multi-analyte spike-in. The LoD between SS and MS samples were assessed for representative subtypes of CT (Serovar I), NG (Strain 2948), and MG (G37). The CT, NG, and MG culture stocks were diluted (either individually or co-formulated) in pooled negative urine clinical specimen matrix. Three dilution levels were prepared for each SS and MS panel members, one above, below and at the hit rate of $\geq 95\%$ as determined in the MS LoD analysis above. Twenty replicates of each concentration were tested using one lot of the cobas liat CT/NG/MG assay tubes, across 20 cobas liat analyzers. The results of this analysis demonstrated that the SS LoD is comparable to the MS LoD (i.e., within a 3-fold difference).

Inclusivity were performed for an additional 15 CT serovars, 43 NG strains, and 6 MG strains using one lot of reagents. Testing was performed using CT, NG, and MG cultures that were diluted into pools of negative clinical specimens. Three replicates per dilution level were tested for each subtype per specimen type. The lowest level at which all three replicates tested as positive are reported in Table 14, Table 15, and Table 16 for CT, NG, and MG, respectively.

# 7. Assay Cut-Off:
The assay cutoffs for CT, NG, MG, and internal control were initially evaluated using selected clinical study testing data or cultures spiked into clinical matrix (urine stabilized in or vaginal swabs collected in cobas PCR Media). This data (13,651 valid results) was used to confirm adequate separation between the latest Ct value observed in the analyte positive specimens for CT, NG, and MG target detection channels and the assay cut-off. The overall positive and negative agreements for the prospective samples were calculated across specimen types against the matched specimen result from the clinical study comparator assays.
# 8. Carry-Over:
A carry-over study was conducted for the original cleared cobas Influenza A/B & RSV test for the liat System (K153544) and demonstrated that there was no carry-over or cross contamination observed. The cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test for the liat System instrumentation and workflow are identical to the cobas Influenza A/B & RSV for the liat System, therefore additional carry-over studies are not required.
# B Comparison Studies:
See Clinical Studies section below.
# 1. Matrix Comparison:
N/A
# C Clinical Studies:
The clinical utility and performance of cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test was established in a multi-site, prospective study by comparing the results to a Composite Comparator Algorithm (CCA) or Patient Infected Status (PIS) result derived from a combination of FDA-cleared NAATs for the three analytes. Male urine and vaginal swabs were collected and tested at 13 geographically diverse intended use clinical sites across the US. There were 48 operators that took part in cobas liat

CT/NG/MG testing, of which, 43 represented CLIA-waived operators. Five of the 48 operators represented experienced laboratorians in a moderate complexity laboratory.
Prospectively enrolled female subjects provided four vaginal swab specimens, three for comparator tests and one for the cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test. Vaginal swab specimen for the cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test was either collected by clinician or self-collected.
Prospectively enrolled male subjects provided a urine specimen that was aliquoted into the respective manufacturers' collection devices and cobas PCR Media.
A total of 4852 subjects (2512 females and 2340 males) were enrolled in the study and provided specimens for collection. Two subjects, declared male at birth, provided vaginal swab specimens.
Upon initial testing, the cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test had an invalid rate was 0.6% and, after retesting, had the final invalid rate was 0.1%.
Of the evaluable subjects, the following number of specimens were included in the final clinical performance:
Table 16: Number of specimens included in the clinical performance analysis
| Specimen Type | CT Results | NG Results | MG Results |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Male Urine | 2296 | 2301 | 2298 |
| VS CC | 1239 | 1238 | 1239 |
| VS SC | 1234 | 1234 | 1233 |
In addition, a total of 253 archived vaginal and male urine specimens, prospectively collected, were included and tested in this clinical study due to the low NG prevalence observed.
Specimens were tested for CT, NG, and MG using cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test and the comparator NAATs. All tests were run according to the respective IFU.
The clinical performance of cobas liat CT/NG/MG nucleic acid test was evaluated by comparing the results from collected specimen types to a PIS or CCA result. Male urine samples were tested with three comparator tests for each analyte (CT, NG, and MG); a concordant result for two out of three comparator tests determined the final PIS status. Vaginal swabs (clinician-collected and self-collected) were tested with three comparator tests for each analyte; a concordant result for two out of three comparator tests determined the CCA result for CT and NG, and the final PIS status for MG. Table 18 below shows the CCA/PIS algorithm for each analyte.
