Table 1.

Qualification parameters, methods, FDA guidance, and derived results. Assay performance and characteristics are reported along with summarized FDA guidance for the five HIV bnAbs tested.


Derived Assay Criteria
Qualification parameter Experimental design FDA Guidance 10–1074 3BNC117 3BNC117LS PGDM1400 PGT121
Serum dilution factor Dilutions of anti-id in multiple concentrations of PNHS were used to estimate matrix effects and identify a suitable serum dilution. < 1:100 1:12 1:12 1:12 1:6 13:1
Sensitivity Dilutions of anti-id were run in duplicate. Assay sensitivity (ng/mL of ADA in serum) was determined using the qualification cut point. < 100 ng/mL 22.9 11.1 22.9 0.293 31.3
Repeatability QC samples were run by multiple operators over several days. Within plate % CVs were calculated. < 20% 4.7% 3.3% 5.5% 6.5% 7.5%
Intermediate precision QC samples were run by multiple operators over several days. Between plate % CVs were calculated. < 20% 2.1–4.9% 1.9–5.9% 3.1–4.5% 6.0–6.5% 4.8–6.7%
