Indications for Use
The Quest Diagnostics Urine Cocaine Metabolite EIA is intended for the qualitative detection of benzoylecgonine, the primary metabolite of cocaine, in human urine on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. It is a screen test with cutoffs of 300 ng/ml and 150 ng/ml of benzoylecgonine per ml of urine. This test is intended for laboratory use only. For in vitro diagnostic use. The Quest Diagnostics Urine Cocaine Metabolite EIA provides only a preliminary result. Clinical consideration and professional judgment must be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly in evaluating a preliminary positive result. To obtain confirmed analytical results a more specific alternate chemical method is needed. Gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) is the recommended confirmatory method. The Quest Diagnostics Urine Cocaine Metabolite EIA Calibrators are intended for medical purposes and for use only with the Quest Diagnostics Urine Cocaine Metabolite EIA to establish points of reference that are used in the determination of values in the measurement of benzoylecgonine in urine. The Quest Diagnostics Urine Cocaine Metabolite EIA Controls are intended for use as an assay quality control matrix to monitor the precision and accuracy of the laboratory testing procedures for benzoylecgonine.
Device Story
Device is a competitive enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for qualitative detection of benzoylecgonine in human urine; utilizes automated clinical chemistry analyzers (Olympus AU 5400). Input: urine specimen; process: competitive binding between specimen cocaine metabolites and enzyme-labeled benzoylecgonine for sheep polyclonal antibody binding sites; output: absorbance signal proportional to metabolite concentration. Used in clinical laboratories; operated by laboratory technicians. Provides preliminary screening results; requires GC/MS confirmation for positive findings. Benefits patient by enabling rapid identification of cocaine metabolite presence for clinical decision-making.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical studies performed. Evidence consists of analytical bench testing: precision/reproducibility studies at 150 and 300 ng/mL cutoffs; analytical specificity testing against 81 compounds and endogenous substances; cross-reactivity studies; and method comparison against GC/MS (n=153 for 150 ng/mL cutoff; n=165 for 300 ng/mL cutoff) and the predicate device. Results show high agreement with GC/MS and predicate.
Technological Characteristics
Competitive homogenous enzyme immunoassay. Designed for use on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. Includes assay reagents, calibrators, and controls. Qualitative detection with cutoffs at 300 ng/ml and 150 ng/ml.
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of benzoylecgonine in human urine for laboratory use. Intended for prescription use only.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A cocaine and cocaine metabolite test system is a device intended to measure cocaine and a cocaine metabolite (benzoylecgonine) in serum, plasma, and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of cocaine use or overdose.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A cocaine and cocaine metabolite test system is not exempt if it is intended for any use other than employment or insurance testing or is intended for Federal drug testing programs. The device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 862.9, provided the test system is intended for employment and insurance testing and includes a statement in the labeling that the device is intended solely for use in employment and insurance testing, and does not include devices intended for Federal drug testing programs (*e.g.,* programs run by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the Department of Transportation (DOT), and the U.S. military).
