K933878 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ZYMMUNE(TM) CD4/CD8 CELL MONITORING KIT. Classified as Counter, Differential Cell (product code GKZ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Intracel Corp. (Cambridge, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on November 14, 1995 after a review of 827 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Hematology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 864.5220 - the FDA hematology 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 Hematology submissions.
