Indications for Use
lmmunoassay for the in vitro qualitative determination of IgG class antibodies to HSV-1 in human serum and lithium-hepain plasma, K2-EDTA plasma, and K3-EDTA plasma. The test is intended for sexually active individuals and expectant mothers as an aid in the presumptive diagnosis of HSV-1 infection. The test results may not determine the state of active lesions or associated disease manifestations, particularly for primary infection. The predictive value of positive and negative results depends on the population's prevalence and the pretest likelihood of HSV-1. The electrochemiluminescence immunoassay "ECLIA" is intended for use on cobas e immunoassay analyzers. This test is not FDA-cleared for screening blood or plasma donors. The performance of this assay has not been established for use in a pediatric population, neonates, immunocompromised patients, or for use at point-of-care facilities.
Device Story
In vitro diagnostic immunoassay for qualitative detection of HSV-1 IgG antibodies in human serum/plasma. Uses sandwich test principle with biotinylated recombinant HSV-1 antigens and ruthenium-labeled recombinant HSV-1 antigens. Operates on cobas e immunoassay analyzers via electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA). Software automatically calculates results by comparing sample signal to calibrated cutoff value. Used in clinical laboratories; results interpreted by physicians to aid in presumptive diagnosis of HSV-1 infection. Does not determine active lesion state or primary infection status. Benefits include standardized serological assessment for sexually active individuals and expectant mothers.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical bench testing demonstrating improved biotin tolerance and reduced streptavidin interference.
Technological Characteristics
Sandwich immunoassay using biotinylated and ruthenium-labeled recombinant HSV-1 antigens. Electrochemiluminescence (ECLIA) detection. Reagents include biotin-depleting agent and streptavidin interference reducing agent. Designed for use on cobas e immunoassay analyzers.
Indications for Use
Indicated for sexually active individuals and expectant mothers for in vitro qualitative detection of IgG antibodies to HSV-1 in human serum and plasma (lithium-heparin, K2-EDTA, K3-EDTA). Not for blood/plasma donor screening, pediatric, neonatal, immunocompromised patients, or point-of-care use.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Herpes simplex virus serological assays are devices that consist of antigens and antisera used in various serological tests to identify antibodies to herpes simplex virus in serum. Additionally, some of the assays consist of herpes simplex virus antisera conjugated with a fluorescent dye (immunofluorescent assays) used to identify herpes simplex virus directly from clinical specimens or tissue culture isolates derived from clinical specimens. The identification aids in the diagnosis of diseases caused by herpes simplex viruses and provides epidemiological information on these diseases. Herpes simplex viral infections range from common and mild lesions of the skin and mucous membranes to a severe form of encephalitis (inflammation of the brain). Neonatal herpes virus infections range from a mild infection to a severe generalized disease with a fatal outcome.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The device is classified as class II (special controls). The special control for the device is FDA's revised guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Herpes Simplex Virus Types 1 and 2 Serological Assays.” For availability of the guidance revised document, see § 866.1(e).
