Indications for Use
The Elecsys Toxo IgM immunoassay is for the in vitro qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum and plasma. This assay may be used as an aid in the diagnosis of an acute or recent Toxoplasma gondii infection in suspected patients and pregnant women. Patient testing must be performed in conjunction with an anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG antibody assay. The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on Elecsys and cobas e immuno-assay analyzers. This assay has not been cleared by the FDA for blood/plasma donor screening. PreciControl Toxo IgM is used for quality control of the Elecsys Toxo IgM immunoassay on the Elecsys and cobas e immunoassay analyzers.
Device Story
Two-step sandwich immunoassay; uses streptavidin microparticles and electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) detection. Input: 10 µL human serum or plasma sample. Process: Sample prediluted 1:20; reacts with labeled T. gondii-specific recombinant antigen; biotinylated monoclonal IgM-specific antibodies and streptavidin-coated microparticles added; complex binds to solid phase; magnetically captured on electrode surface; unbound substances removed via ProCell; voltage applied to induce chemiluminescent emission measured by photomultiplier. Output: Qualitative result (Reactive/Non-reactive/Equivocal) based on cutoff index (COI). Used in clinical laboratories on Elecsys 2010 or cobas e 411 analyzers. Results aid clinicians in diagnosing acute/recent Toxoplasmosis infection when used alongside IgG testing.
Clinical Evidence
Clinical performance evaluated via three studies (two prospective, one retrospective) and a CDC panel (total 601 samples + 97 panel members). Studies compared Elecsys Toxo IgM to FDA-cleared predicate. CDC panel results: 91% positive agreement (29/32) and 98% negative agreement (64/65). Prospective EU study (n=101) showed 94.2% positive agreement and 50% negative agreement. US prospective study (n=440) showed 66.7% positive agreement and 98.6% negative agreement. Equivocal results were treated as discrepant.
Technological Characteristics
Two-step sandwich immunoassay; electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) detection. Reagents: streptavidin-coated microparticles, ruthenium-labeled T. gondii recombinant antigen, biotinylated anti-human IgM. Platform: Elecsys/cobas e automated analyzers. Sample types: serum, lithium heparin, K2-EDTA, sodium citrate plasma. Software-based signal processing and cutoff determination. No specific material standards cited.
Indications for Use
Indicated for in vitro qualitative detection of IgM antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in human serum and plasma. Used as an aid in diagnosis of acute or recent infection in suspected patients and pregnant women. Must be used with anti-Toxoplasma gondii IgG antibody assay. Not for blood/plasma donor screening.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Toxoplasma gondii serological reagents are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in serological tests to identify antibodies to Toxoplasma gondii in serum. Additionally, some of these reagents consist of antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent reagents) used to identify Toxoplasma gondii from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of toxoplasmosis caused by the parasitic protozoan Toxoplasma gondii and provides epidemiological information on this disease. Congenital toxoplasmosis is characterized by lesions of the central nervous system, which if undetected and untreated may lead to brain defects, blindness, and death of an unborn fetus. The disease is characterized in children by inflammation of the brain and spinal cord.
