In Vitro Diagnostics EUAs

In vitro diagnostic (IVD) devices are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as swabs of mucus from inside the nose or back of the throat, or blood taken from a vein or fingerstick. IVDs can detect diseases or other conditions and can be used to monitor a person's overall health to help cure, treat, or prevent diseases. There are several types of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 related IVDs:

  • Diagnostic Tests - Tests that detect parts of the SARS-CoV-2 virus and can be used to diagnose infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. These include molecular tests and antigen tests.
  • Serology/Antibody Tests - Tests that detect antibodies (e.g., IgM, IgG) to the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Serology/antibody tests cannot be used to diagnose a current infection.
  • Tests for Management of COVID-19 Patients - Beyond tests that diagnose or detect SARS-CoV-2 virus or antibodies, there are also tests that are authorized for use in the management of patients with COVID-19, such as to detect biomarkers related to inflammation. Once patients are diagnosed with COVID-19 disease, these additional tests can be used to inform patient management decisions.

Any test developer requesting an EUA that intends to leverage data from another EUA-authorized device must obtain a right of reference to leverage the performance data for that EUA-authorized device. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has granted a right of reference to the performance data contained in CDC's EUA request (FDA submission number EUA200001) to any entity seeking an FDA EUA for a COVID-19 diagnostic device.

Templates for these EUA submissions are available to help facilitate the preparation, submission, and authorization of an EUA:

These templates are part of the Policy for Coronavirus Disease-2019 Tests During the Public Health Emergency (Revised) - Immediately in Effect Guidance for Clinical Laboratories, Commercial Manufacturers, and Food and Drug Administration Staff, which also includes additional policies specific to this public Health emergency. The templates reflect FDA's current thinking on the data and information that developers should submit to facilitate the EUA process. The templates provide information and recommendations, and we plan to update them as appropriate as we learn more about the COVID-19 disease and gain experience with the EUA process for the various types of COVID-19 tests.

Developers who intend to use alternative approaches should consider seeking the FDA's feedback or recommendations to help them through the EUA process. The FDA encourages developers to discuss any alternative technological approaches to validating their test with the FDA through CDRH-EUA-Templates@fda.hhs.gov.

Members of the public can submit questions about the templates to CDRH-EUA-Templates@fda.hhs.gov, or they can submit comments regarding the templates to the public docket established for the guidance Policy for Coronavirus Disease-2019 Tests During the Public Health Emergency (Revised) - Immediately in Effect Guidance for Clinical Laboratories, Commercial Manufacturers, and Food and Drug Administration Staff.

Test developers interested in pursuing an EUA may submit a pre-EUA to begin discussions with the FDA or may submit an EUA request to CDRH-EUA-Templates@fda.hhs.gov.

Additional information can be found on the FAQs on Testing for SARS-CoV-2 webpage.

  • M - Laboratories certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a, that meet requirements to perform moderate complexity tests.
  • W - Patient care settings operating under a CLIA Certificate of Waiver.

2 Authorization Documents include the Healthcare Provider (HCP) and Patient Fact Sheets and either the Manufacture Instructions/Package Insert (abbreviated to IFU) or the EUA Summary.

3 Abbreviations:

  • RT-PCR = reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction;
  • RT = reverse transcriptase;
  • LAMP = loop-mediated isothermal amplification;
  • MALDI-TOF = Matrix Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization - Time of Flight;
  • TMA = Transcription Mediated Amplification;
  • qSTAR = Selective Temperature Amplification Reaction;
  • CRISPR = clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats;

Umbrella EUA for Molecular Diagnostic Tests for SARS-CoV-2 Developed And Performed By Laboratories Certified Under CLIA To Perform High Complexity Tests

On March 31, 2020, the FDA issued an umbrella EUA for molecular laboratory developed tests (LDTs) for detection of SARS-CoV-2 that meet certain criteria for eligibility described in the EUA. Under this EUA, authorized tests are authorized for use in the single laboratory that developed the authorized test and that is certified under Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments of 1988 (CLIA), 42 U.S.C. §263a to perform high complexity tests. A manufacturer may request the addition of an eligible molecular-based LDT to Appendix A by submitting a request to CDRH-EUA-Templates@FDA.HHS.GOV.

The table below includes information for the high complexity molecular-based laboratory developed SARS-CoV-2 assays authorized by this Umbrella EUA during the COVID-19 public health emergency.

Individual EUAs for Serology Tests for SARS-CoV-2

On August 6, 2020, based on FDA's continued review of the scientific evidence available for Autobio Diagnostics Co. Ltd.'s Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Rapid Test for the qualitative detection and differentiation of IgM and IgG antibodies to SARS-CoV-2 in human plasma from anticoagulated blood (Heparin/ EDTA/ sodium citrate) or serum 2, including evidence from an NIH/NCI independent evaluation, FDA determined that the statutory criteria for the authorization in Section 564(c)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act are no longer met. Specifically, FDA determined that it is not reasonable to believe the product may be effective in detecting IgM antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 or that the known and potential benefits of the device when used for this purpose outweigh its known and potential risks. FDA also concluded that based on the risks to public health from false test results, revocation is appropriate to protect the public health or safety. Accordingly, the EUA was revoked under Section 564(g)(2)(B) & (C) of the FD&C Act.

On June 16, 2020, based on FDA's continued review of the scientific evidence available for Chembio Diagnostic Systems, Inc.'s DPP COVID-19 IgM/IgG System for detection of IgM and IgG antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, including evidence from an NIH/NCI independent evaluation, FDA determined that the statutory criteria for issuing an EUA in Section 564(c)(2) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act are no longer met. Specifically, FDA determined that it is not reasonable to believe the product may be effective in detecting antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 or that the known and potential benefits of the device when used for this purpose outweigh its known and potential risks.

Umbrella EUA for Independently Validated Serology Tests for SARS-CoV-2

On April 28, 2020, FDA issued an umbrella EUA for SARS-CoV-2 Antibody Tests (Lateral flow or Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) tests) that have been evaluated in an independent validation study performed at the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) National Cancer Institute (NCI), or by another government agency designated by the FDA, and are confirmed by the FDA to meet the criteria set forth in the Scope of Authorization of the EUA.  To date, however, no device has been added to the list of authorized devices in Appendix A of the letter of authorization.

On July 21, 2020, FDA determined, based on information and experience since issuing this EUA, that circumstances support revocation of this umbrella EUA so that FDA may issue individual EUAs. Individual EUAs will allow for broader indications and scopes of authorization, individualized conditions of authorization to address any issue unique to a specific test, and more streamlined EUA amendments, such as additional uses that would not fall under this umbrella EUA.

Accordingly, the EUA was revoked under Section 564(g)(2)(C) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FD&C) Act.

This table includes information about authorized in vitro diagnostic tests that may be used in the management of patients with COVID-19 that have been authorized individually.
