DEN180056 is an FDA 510(k) submission (not cleared) for the GSP Neonatal Creatine Kinase - MM kit. Classified as Muscular Dystrophy Newborn Screening Test (product code QJE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Perkinelmer, Inc. (Waltham, US). The FDA issued a Not Cleared (DENG) decision on December 12, 2019 after a review of 427 days.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1506 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway requires demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device - a standard the FDA determined was not met in this submission.

Device pattern: Regulatory edge-case submission. High predicate equivalence gap. With 427 days under review and no clearance granted, this submission reflects a case where the FDA could not confirm sufficient predicate equivalence - often indicating either a novel device category or unresolved safety and performance questions.
