A (b)(6) advia centaur xpt hcv (ahcv) result was obtained by the customer, and the result was questioned by the physician.The patient was first tested on an alternate hcv test method, and the result (b)(6).A new sample from the same patient was drawn, and tested on the advia centaur xpt that resulted (b)(6).The patient sample was tested on another hcv test method, and the result was (b)(6).A corrected report was issued.There are no reports that patient treatment was altered or prescribed or adverse health consequences due to the discordant advia centaur xpt hcv results.Mdr 1219913-2018-00202 was filed for the same patient for a (b)(6) result on (b)(6) 2018.

11/12/2018 additional information: the sample was provided, and was tested on the advia centaur xpt, and the innolia platforms.The sample was considered positive on innolia, and a high negative when tested on the advia centaur xpt.The advia centaur xpt hcv assay detects antibodies to several different hcv antigens including c22, c200 and ns5.A study was performed, and reactivity to the c22 and c200 antigens was observed.Based on the index value of the sample, it is possible that this is a very old hcv infection; however patient history or preexisting medical condition including medications, and dates of diagnosis was not provided in determining a potential root cause.There is no indication by the customer that the instruction for use (ifu) for clinical sensitivity is outside the 95% confidence interval (ci) of 99.18 to 100%.Hcv sample testing results: platform reagent lot result advia centaur xpt 062294 0.70 index (non-reactive), advia centaur xpt 062286 0.66 index (non-reactive), innolia hcv score: n/a +/- reactivity to c1 and c2 lines.Antigens (c22, c2000, ns5) reactivity study: c22 specific wetcakes 11.0 rlu sd (reactivity), c200 specific wetcakes 16.1 rlu sd (reactivity), ns5 ancillary reagent -0.99 rlu sd (no reactivity).Note: reactivity was classified as >10 rlu sd above normal patient baseline.The instruction for use (ifu) states in the limitations section: "a negative test result does not exclude the possibility of exposure to or infection with hcv.Hcv antibodies may be undetectable in some stages of the infection and in some clinical conditions.Assay performance characteristics have not been established when the advia centaur hcv assay is used in conjunction with other manufacturers' assays for specific hcv serological markers." the instrument is performing within specification.No further evaluation of the device is required.Mdr 1219913-2018-00202 was filed on the same patient for a false non-reactive result on a different day.
