K213403 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the Aptiva CTD Essential Reagent. Classified as Extractable Antinuclear Antibody, Antigen And Control (product code LLL), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Inova Diagnostics, Inc. (San Diego, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on September 29, 2023 after a review of 711 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Immunology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 866.5100 - 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: High-complexity regulatory submission. Elevated predicate reliance profile. The extended review timeline suggests the FDA required additional documentation before confirming substantial equivalence - a pattern common in complex or first-of-kind Immunology submissions.
