Indications for Use
Elecsys AMH is intended for the in vitro quantitative determination of anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) in human serum and lithium heparin plasma. The determination of AMH is used for the assessment of the ovarian reserve in women presenting to fertility clinics. This immunoassay is intended to distinguish between women presenting with AFC (antral follicle count) values > 15 (high ovarian reserve) and women with AFC values ≤ 15 (normal or diminished ovarian reserve). This immunoassay is intended to be used for assessing the ovarian reserve in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings before starting any fertility therapy. Elecsys AMH is not intended to be used for monitoring of women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation in an Assisted Reproduction Technology program. The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on cobas e immunoassay analyzers.
Device Story
Elecsys AMH is an in vitro quantitative electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) for human serum and lithium heparin plasma; used on Roche cobas e 601 analyzers. Device measures anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels to assess ovarian reserve in fertility clinic patients. Principle of operation: sandwich immunoassay using biotinylated monoclonal anti-AMH antibody and ruthenium-labeled monoclonal anti-AMH antibody. Modification includes addition of biotin scavenger antibody to R2 reagent to mitigate biotin interference up to 1200 ng/mL. Output is quantitative AMH concentration (ng/mL). Clinicians use results alongside other clinical/laboratory findings to categorize ovarian reserve (AFC > 15 vs ≤ 15) before initiating fertility therapy. Device provides standardized assessment of ovarian reserve; updated formulation improves assay robustness against biotin-containing supplements.
Clinical Evidence
No new clinical studies were performed. Clinical performance was established in the predicate device (DEN150057). Analytical performance data provided includes precision (internal and multi-site reproducibility), linearity (0.03–23 ng/mL), and interference testing (endogenous and exogenous). Matrix comparison between serum and lithium heparin plasma showed high correlation (r=0.998).
Technological Characteristics
Electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA). Reagents: biotinylated monoclonal anti-AMH antibody, ruthenium-labeled monoclonal anti-AMH antibody, and biotin scavenger antibody. Measuring range: 0.03–23 ng/mL. Analyzers: cobas e 601. Standards: CLSI EP05-A3 (precision), EP17-A2 (detection limits), EP07-A3 (interference).
Indications for Use
Indicated for women presenting to fertility clinics to assess ovarian reserve; distinguishes between high ovarian reserve (AFC > 15) and normal/diminished ovarian reserve (AFC ≤ 15). Not for monitoring women undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation in Assisted Reproduction Technology programs.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An anti-mullerian hormone test system is an in vitro diagnostic device intended to measure anti-mullerian hormone in human serum and plasma. An anti-mullerian hormone test system is intended to be used for assessing ovarian reserve in women.
Special Controls
An anti-mullerian hormone test system must comply with the following special controls: 1) Premarket notification submissions must include the following information: i. An adequate traceability plan to minimize the risk of drift in anti-mullerian hormone test system results over time. ii. Detailed documentation of a prospective clinical study to demonstrate clinical performance or, if appropriate, results from an equivalent sample set. This detailed documentation must include the following information: a. Results must demonstrate adequate clinical performance relative to a well-accepted comparator. b. Clinical sample results must demonstrate consistency of device output throughout the device measuring range that is appropriate for the intended use population. c. Clinical study documentation must include the original study protocol (including predefined statistical analysis plan), study report documenting support for the proposed indications for use(s), and results of all statistical analyses. iii. Reference intervals generated by testing an adequate number of samples from apparently healthy normal individuals in the intended use population. 2) Your 809.10(b) compliant labeling must include a warning statement that the device is intended to be used for assessing the ovarian reserve in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings before starting any fertility therapy, and that the device should be used in conjunction with the Antral Follicle Count.
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special controls for this device are:(1) Design verification and validation must include: (i) An adequate traceability plan to minimize the risk of drift in anti-mullerian hormone test system results over time. (ii) Detailed documentation of a prospective clinical study to demonstrate clinical performance or, if appropriate, results from an equivalent sample set. This detailed documentation must include the following information: (A) Results must demonstrate adequate clinical performance relative to a well-accepted comparator. (B) Clinical sample results must demonstrate consistency of device output throughout the device measuring range that is appropriate for the intended use population. (C) Clinical study documentation must include the original study protocol (including predefined statistical analysis plan), study report documenting support for the proposed indications for use(s), and results of all statistical analyses. (iii) Reference intervals generated by testing an adequate number of samples from apparently healthy normal individuals in the intended use population. (2) The labeling required under § 809.10(b) of this chapter must include a warning statement that the device is intended to be used for assessing the ovarian reserve in conjunction with other clinical and laboratory findings before starting any fertility therapy, and that the device should be used in conjunction with the antral follicle count.
