Indications for Use
The One Step EDDP (methadone Metabolite) Test Strip is a rapid immunochromatographic assays, for the qualitative detection of 2-ethylidene-1,5-dimethyl-3,3-diphenylpyrrolidine (EDDP), an inactive metabolite of methadone, at a designates cutoff concentration of 300 ng/mL. This product is used to obtain a visual, qualitative result and is intended for professional use and professionals at point of care sites. This assay provides only preliminary results. A more specific alternate chemical method must be used in order to obtain a confirmed analytical result. Gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) is the preferred confirmatory method. Clinical consideration and professional judgment should be applied to any drug of abuse test result, particularly when preliminary positive results are indicated.
Device Story
Rapid immunochromatographic test strip; detects EDDP (methadone metabolite) in human urine. Principle: competitive binding immunoassay; urine sample migrates via capillary action; EDDP competes with drug conjugate for antibody-coated particle binding sites. Output: visual colored line in test region; line presence indicates EDDP below 300 ng/mL; absence indicates EDDP above 300 ng/mL. Used at point-of-care sites by professionals. Provides preliminary results; requires GC/MS confirmation for clinical decision-making. Benefits: rapid screening for methadone metabolite presence.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical evaluation performed at three external sites comparing test strip results to GC/MS analysis. Total sample size of 554. Overall agreement with GC/MS was 98% (95% CI: 96% - 99%). Analytical sensitivity study demonstrated >99% accuracy at 50% above and below the 300 ng/mL cutoff.
Technological Characteristics
Rapid immunochromatographic immunoassay; competitive binding principle; lateral flow test strip; visual readout; urine specimen input; no electronic components or software; no external energy source required.
Indications for Use
Indicated for the qualitative detection of EDDP (methadone metabolite) in human urine at a 300 ng/mL cutoff to assist in determining drug compliance. Intended for professional use at point-of-care sites. Provides preliminary results requiring GC/MS confirmation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A methadone test system is a device intended to measure methadone, an addictive narcotic pain-relieving drug, in serum and urine. Measurements obtained by this device are used in the diagnosis and treatment of methadone use or overdose and to determine compliance with regulations in methadone maintenance treatment.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A methadone 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).
