Approval Order Statement Approval for the bayer versant hcv rna 3. 0 assay (bdna). The device is indicated for: the versant hcv rna 3. 0 assay (bdna) is a signal amplification nucleic acid probe assay for the quantitation of human hepatitis c viral rna (hcv rna) in the serum or plasma (edta and acd) of hcv-infected individuals using the bayer system 340 bdna analyzer. Specimens containing hcv genotypes 1-6 have been validated for quantitation in the assay. The versant hcv rna 3. 0 assay is intended for use as an aid in the management of hcv-infected patients undergoing anti-viral therapy. The assay measures hcv rna levels at baseline and during treatment and are useful in predicting non-response to hcv therapy, and are predictive of non-sustained virological response. The results from the versant hcv rna 3. 0 assay (bdna) must be interpreted within the context of all relevant clinical and laboratory findings. Assay performance characteristics have been established only for individuals treated with interferon alfa-2b plus ribavirin. No information is available on the assay predictive values when other therapies are used. |
