K093957 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ARCHITECT HE4, ARCHITECT HE4 CALIBRATORS AND ARCHITECT HE4 CONTROLS, MODELS 2.... Classified as Test, Epithelial Ovarian Tumor Associated Antigen (he4) (product code OIU), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Fujirebio Diagnostics,Inc. (Malvern, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on March 18, 2010 after a review of 85 days - a notably fast clearance cycle.

This device falls under the Immunology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.6010 - the FDA immunology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Fast-track predicate clearance. Standard predicate reliance. The short review cycle indicates strong predicate alignment - the FDA found sufficient equivalence without extended technical review.

Device Classification

Product Code OIU Test, Epithelial Ovarian Tumor Associated Antigen (he4)
Device Class Class 2 - Special Controls
CFR Regulation 21 CFR 866.6010
Definition An Enzyme Immunometric Assay For The Quantitative Determination Of He4 In Human Serum. The Assay Is To Be Used As An Aid In Monitoring Recurrence Or Progressive Disease In Patients With Epithelial Ovarian Cancer. Serial Testing For Patient He4 Assay Values Should Be Used In Conjunction With Other Clinical Methods Used For Monitoring Ovarian Cancer. It Is Not Intended To Estimate Or Assess The Risk Of Disease Outcomes Of Patients.
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 Immunology devices follow this clearance model.
