510(k) Predicate Finder
Find potential predicate devices for your 510(k) submission. Enter a K-number to find all clearances with the same product code, a three-letter product code to browse clearances directly, or search by device name.
Autoantibodies, Anti-Ribonucleic Acid Polymerase (Rnap) Iii Antibody
Immunology
The Autoantibodies, Anti-Ribonucleic Acid Polymerase (RNAP) III Antibody device (product code NYO) is a semi-quantitative ELISA-based in vitro diagnostic test for the detection of anti-RNA polymerase III antibodies in human serum, used as an aid in the diagnosis of systemic sclerosis (SSc) in conjunction with clinical and other laboratory findings. It is classified as FDA Class 2, requiring 510(k) clearance, and is regulated under 21 CFR 866.5100 within the Immunology specialty. Third-party 510(k) review is available for this device type.
510(k) Clearances
4 matchesWhat is a Predicate Device?
A predicate device is a legally marketed device that a new 510(k) applicant uses to demonstrate substantial equivalence. The FDA's 510(k) pathway requires manufacturers to show that their device has the same intended use and similar technological characteristics as one or more predicate devices already cleared for commercial distribution.
Finding the right predicate is a critical step in 510(k) strategy. Manufacturers typically search for cleared devices with the same FDA product code, which groups devices by their intended use and regulatory classification. This tool helps you identify potential predicates by browsing all clearances within a product code.
Note that predicate devices must be legally marketed — they cannot be devices that were cleared but never commercialized, or devices subject to a mandatory recall. The determination of substantial equivalence considers intended use, technological characteristics, and performance data.
