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.
Bcr/Abl1 Monitoring Test
Medical Genetics
The BCR/ABL1 Monitoring Test is a quantitative in vitro diagnostic device that uses reverse-transcriptase quantitative PCR (RQ-PCR) to monitor the BCR/ABL1 to ABL1 ratio in whole blood or bone marrow of Philadelphia chromosome-positive chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) patients, reporting results on the international scale (%IS) and as log molecular reduction (MR) values to assess treatment response. It is classified as Class 2 (FDA Class 2), requiring 510(k) premarket clearance. The product code is OYX, with regulation number 866.6060 under the Medical Genetics specialty, reviewed by the pathology panel.
510(k) Clearances
5 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.
