K211685 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Elecsys Testosterone II. Classified as Radioimmunoassay, Testosterones And Dihydrotestosterone (product code CDZ), Class I - General Controls.

Submitted by Roche Diagnostics (Indianapolis, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on May 6, 2022 after a review of 338 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Chemistry FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.1680 - the FDA in vitro diagnostics and chemistry framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway establishes clearance through substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, without requiring clinical trial data.

Device pattern: Standard predicate-based submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. This clearance follows a standard predicate-based equivalence path within the Chemistry review framework, consistent with the majority of Class II 510(k) submissions.
