NTI Device Classification - Class 2, Special Controls

Product Code NTI Drug Metabolizing Enzyme Genotyping Systems
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 862.3360
Definition Intended To Identify The Presence Or Absence Of Human Genotypic Markers Encoding Drug Metaboizing Enzymes Using Dna Originating From Clinical Samples. This Type Of Assay Can Be Used As An Aid Determining Treatment Choice And Individualizing Treatment Dose For Therapeutics That Are Metabolized Primarily By The Specific Enzyme Tested By The System.
What this classification means

Class II devices require demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device. This pathway does not require clinical trials - it relies on engineering equivalence and performance data. Most Chemistry devices follow this clearance model.
