Description

Thermo Scientific QMS Everolimus Assay; Model number: 0380000 (US Distribution); 0373852 (Foreign Distribution) Product Usage: The QMS Everolimus Assay is intended for the quantitative determination of Everolimus, in human whole blood on automated clinical chemistry analyzers. The results obtained are used as an aid in the management of kidney and liver transplant patients receiving Everolimus therapy.

The QMS Everolimus assay is intended to be used as an aid in the management of patients receiving everolimus therapy for those organ transplant procedures indicated in the chart for each specific country.

Reason

A reagent stability issue (still under investigation) causes less separation in the calibration curve, which affects results across the entire range. For controls, maximum bias of +/- 35% for low levels, +/- 33% for mid-range levels, and +/- 47% for high levels is observed. Bias in patient samples ranges from -15.7% to +5.2% with an average bias of -5.6% when comparing the QMS everolimus assay to an everolimus LC-MS reference method. Patient samples across the measuring range  sub-therapeutic, therapeutic, and supra-therapeutic  could be affected.
