Indications for Use
The Prodesse® Pro hMPV®+ Assay is a Real-Time PCR (RT-PCR) in vitro diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) nucleic acid isolated and purified from nasopharyngeal swab (NP) specimens obtained from individuals exhibiting signs and symptoms of acute respiratory infection. This Assay targets a highly conserved region of the Nucleocapsid gene of hMPV. The detection of hMPV nucleic acid from symptomatic patients aids in the diagnosis of human respiratory hMPV infection if used in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings. This test is not intended to differentiate the four genetic sublineages of hMPV. Negative results do not prectude hMPV infection and should not be used as the sole basis for diagnosis, treatment or other management decisions.
Device Story
Real-time RT-PCR assay for qualitative detection of human Metapneumovirus (hMPV) nucleic acid; targets conserved Nucleocapsid gene region. Input: nasopharyngeal swab specimens in viral transport medium. Process: nucleic acid isolation/purification via MagNA Pure LC or NucliSENS easyMAG; reverse transcription and amplification using Pro hMPV+ Supermix and enzymes; Taqman chemistry with FAM-labeled probe for hMPV and Quasar 670-labeled probe for Universal Internal Control (UIC). Output: fluorescent signal intensity monitored by Cepheid SmartCycler II instrument. Used in clinical laboratory settings by trained personnel. Results aid diagnosis of respiratory infection when combined with other clinical/laboratory findings.
Clinical Evidence
Retrospective clinical comparison study demonstrated that the modified assay with Universal Internal Control (UIC) maintains performance claims equivalent to the previous version of the device. Analytical studies (sensitivity, IC interference, extractor equivalency, sample stability) confirmed functionality.
Technological Characteristics
Real-time RT-PCR assay; Taqman chemistry; FAM/Quasar 670 fluorophores. Targets Nucleocapsid gene. Requires external instrumentation (MagNA Pure LC or NucliSENS easyMAG for extraction; Cepheid SmartCycler II for amplification/detection). Includes Universal Internal Control (RNA/DNA).
Indications for Use
Indicated for qualitative detection of human metapneumovirus (hMPV) RNA in nasopharyngeal swab specimens from patients with respiratory infection symptoms. Intended for use by professional laboratory personnel to aid in diagnosis.
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.
