K951853 is an FDA 510(k) clearance for the ONE STEP URINE DRUG OF ABUSE CANNABINOID TEST (THC). Classified as Enzyme Immunoassay, Cannabinoids (product code LDJ), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Tcpi, Inc. (Pompano Beach, US). The FDA issued a Cleared decision on August 20, 1996 after a review of 487 days - an unusually long review period, suggesting complex equivalence evaluation.

This device falls under the Toxicology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 862.3870 - the FDA toxicology 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 Toxicology submissions.
