Investigations were conducted to find the probable cause of the architect cyclosporine assay discrepant patient results. It was concluded that the most probable cause was a reaction vessel (rv) resin change sourced from a new vendor. When the customer mixed reaction vessels from both resin lots for assay calibration and/or assay test runs, an increase in discrepant results was seen along with calibration failures and controls shifting and/or reading out of specifications. It was found that there is greater adherence of the cyclosporine/microparticle-cyclosporine complex to the rv wall for rvs made using the resin from the new vendor versus the resin rvs from the former vendor. The investigation also found that the resin rv lot to lot variability of the new vendor is not causing assay performance issues and that the resin change did not cause sample concentration shifts in customer data. Customers had been informed by product correction letter (b)(4) to only use rv lots manufactured with the same resin for the architect cyclosporine assay. If these instructions are followed, assay precision is restored to within package insert claims. Per current product availability, only the new vendor resin is now being manufactured and used exclusively for reaction vessel production. Since using the reaction vessels manufactured with the new resin formulation, the calibration curve is slightly flatter, which results in higher %cvs than previously observed with the assay, but still within precision claim of less than 15 %. The architect cyclosporine assay will be included in future testing of any resin changes. Improvement efforts are ongoing and planned to be finalized fourth quarter 2013.

The customer reports that a physician called regarding a falsely increased architect cyclosporine assay result for a heart transplant patient. The physician stated that the cyclosporine result suddenly increased from 100 ug/l to 165 ug/l (the physician considered this increase "severe"). The patient has had the transplant for a long time and cyclosporine results up till now have been very stable. The physician was already beginning to decrease the dosage of the drug but decided to leave the dosage as is when informed of the issues with the assay and the possible analytical inaccuracy of the recent result. There was no impact to patient management with no adverse impact to patient care.

The patient documented in this mdr was filed in duplicate under manufacturer's report number 1415939-2013-00021, with concomitant product: architect i2000sr analyzer list number 03m74-01, serial number (b)(4). At the time of the initial filing, the customer was unsure as to which analyzer generated the discrepant results. This corrected report is being filed to included the second analyzer above.
