Principles of Operation
• Fully automated steps– Operator interacts with specimen and NeuMoDx Software – Instrument automates:
• Sample pickup from specimens• Combination with lysis buffer for lysis and binding step• Extraction and purification of nucleic acids• Real-Time PCR and results processing• On-board reagent and consumable inventory
• Sample process control (Internal Control) is co-extracted with every extraction– It is part of the NeuMoDx Extraction Plate– SPC1 for DNA and SPC2 for RNA specimens
11
Running an LDT: Defining Assay Definition File (ADF)
Flexibility to….define extraction parameters:– Choose between 5 lysis buffers depending on specimen matrix– Choose specimen input volume up to 550 µL– Choose lysis time and temperature
define PCR cycling parameters:– Set PCR stages and steps, including temperatures and times – Detect on up to 5 channels, with one reserved for detection of the sample process control
define overall run settings:– Qualitative vs. Quantitative analysis– Define and/or Create Standard Curves for quantitative assays– Set up Standards, External Controls, and Calibrators
define stability settings for specimen and primer/probe (ASR) onboard life
Intuitive, User-Friendly Software
Running an LDT Test
• User loads Master Mix Test Strips• User loads LDT Test Strips containing assay specific primers/probes
12
Once defined, the user can load specimens for automated sample processing.
User defines Assay Definition File User loads and maps test-specific Primer/Probe Mix to the LDT Test Strip

CMV LDT Linearity
Excellent correlation between CMV LDT reported concentrations and the expected concentrations with slope of correlation plot at 1 and intercept (bias) ~ 0.00005.
Lower Limit of Quantification – CMV LDT• Limit of Quantitation was defined as the concentration of target detected consistently (≥95%
sensitivity) with a total analytic error =1.0.• Here the Total Analytic Error (TAE) is defined as
𝑻𝑻𝑻𝑻𝑻𝑻 = 𝑻𝑻𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨𝑨 𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑨𝑨 + 𝟐𝟐 ∗ 𝑺𝑺𝑨𝑨𝑩𝑩𝑺𝑺𝑺𝑺𝑩𝑩𝑺𝑺𝑺𝑺 𝑫𝑫𝑨𝑨𝑫𝑫𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑩𝑨𝑨𝑩𝑩𝑨𝑨𝑺𝑺
• As seen from data above, TAE=1.0 for a value 150 IU/mL and 75 IU/mL (both below LoD levels)
• However, since the LLoQ cannot be less than LoD, the LLoQ was determined to be 2.3 Log10 IU/mL, or 200 IU/mL.

LDT Assay Definition Finalized• At this point, the following parameters were determined for the CMV Quantitative LDT
• Limit Of Detection (LoD)• Lower Limit of Quantitation (LLoQ)• Linearity & Master Calibration Curve• Upper Limit of Quantitation (ULoQ)
• Final results processing parameters were defined with special attention to cutoff criteria for establishing valid amplification
• A Quantitative Assay Definition File was finalized for further evaluation
• Prior to performing further testing, two Calibrators (High and Low) were processed in triplicate to establish the Test Strip Lot-specific Calibration
• Calibration Validity was automatically evaluated by NeuMoDx Software
• Once established, the calibration is valid until the Lot of the Test Strip is changed or the ADF is modified
26
Evaluation of Established CMV Quantitative LDT
Interference Study• Potential Interference of CMV LDT, with representative endogenous moieties typically encountered in
plasma matrix, was evaluated to determine the robustness of the test.
• Interference panels were prepared by spiking CMV at 600 IU/mL, into negative plasma samples containing high concentrations of the potential endogenous interference moieties listed in the table below.

EV LDT detected all the 22 strains tested.
Cross Reactivity/Interference Ten organisms that have been detected in CSF were spiked into CSF at concentrations > 1E6 CFU, cp/mL or TCID50/mL. These organisms did not cross react in the EV LDT. The potential interference of these organisms to EV LDT was also tested in the presence of EV at near LoDlevel, 330 cp/mL. No interference by these 10 organisms was observed.
OrganismsNo EV (N=3) With EV at 330 cp/mL (N=3)

Summary• One quantitative DNA and one qualitative RNA LDTs using commercially available
ASRs from DiaSorin Molecular were implemented on the NeuMoDx Molecular System providing a fully automated Sample-to-Result solution for LDTs
• Excellent analytical performance was demonstrated for both LDTs implemented in the study
• General purpose reagents provided by NeuMoDx were utilized in the study with no further modification/optimization
• Implementation of the LDTs with different ASRs or PCR chemistry on the NeuMoDx Molecular System was extremely straightforward; the NeuMoDx Software is intuitive and easy to use
• The NeuMoDx Molecular System provide a truly random access LDT platform. Both DNA and RNA LDT, quantitative and qualitative LDT can be run at the same time with any batch testing
• Onboard & room temperature stable reagents provided in unitized format significantly simplify the entire process and minimize waste
