LuciraTM COVID-19 & Flu Home Test
Instructions for Use
For Use under Emergency Use Authorization (EUA) only For in vitro Diagnostic Use For Use with Self-collected Nasal Swab Specimens in individuals aged 14 years or older For Use with Adult-collected Nasal Swab Specimens in individuals aged 2 years or older For Over-the-Counter (OTC) Use
Intended Use
The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is a single use (disposable) home test kit intended for simultaneous rapid in vitro qualitative detection and differentiation of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B viral nucleic acid. This test is authorized for non-prescription home use with anterior nasal swab samples from individuals 14 years or older (self-collected) or individuals 2 years or older (collected by an adult) with signs and symptoms consistent with a respiratory tract infection, including COVID-19. Clinical signs and symptoms of respiratory viral infection due to SARS-CoV-2 and influenza can be similar.
The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is intended for use in the differential diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B in clinical specimens and is not intended to detect influenza C. SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and influenza B viral nucleic acid is generally detectable in anterior nasal swab samples during the acute phase of infection.
Positive results indicate the presence of viral nucleic acid, but clinical correlation with past medical history and other diagnostic information is necessary to determine infection status. Positive results do not rule out bacterial infection or co-infection with other pathogens not detected by the test. The agent detected may not be the definitive cause of disease. Individuals who test positive with the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test should self-isolate and seek follow up care with their physician or healthcare provider as additional testing may be necessary.
Negative results for SARS-CoV-2 and influenza B are presumptive, meaning that they should be confirmed, if necessary for patient management, with an authorized or cleared molecular test performed in a CLIA-certified laboratory that meets requirements to perform high or moderate complexity tests.
Negative results do not rule out SARS-CoV-2, influenza A, and/or influenza B infection and should not be used as the sole basis for treatment or other management decisions, including infection control decisions. Negative results should be considered in the context of current prevalence of infection, an individual’s recent exposures, history and the presence of clinical signs and symptoms consistent with respiratory infection. Individuals who test negative and continue to experience symptoms of fever, cough and/or shortness of breath may still have a respiratory infection and should seek follow up care with their healthcare provider.
Individuals should report all results obtained with this product to their healthcare provider for public health reporting and to receive appropriate medical care. All healthcare providers will report all test results they receive from individuals who use the authorized product to relevant public health authorities in accordance with local, state, and federal requirements using appropriate LOINC and SNOMED codes, as defined by the Laboratory In Vitro Diagnostics (LIVD) Test Code Mapping for SARS-CoV-2 Tests provided by CDC.
The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is authorized for non-prescription self- use by individuals aged 14 years or older and/or, as applicable, for an adult lay user testing another person aged 2 years or older in a non-laboratory setting. The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is only for use under the Food and Drug Administration’s Emergency Use Authorization.

Summary and Explanation of the Test
The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is a rapid, instrument-free, single-use molecular diagnostic test for the qualitative detection of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B RNA from nasal swab samples in individuals with known or suspected COVID-19 or flu. The test contains all the components required to perform testing.
Principles of the Procedures
The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test utilizes RT-LAMP technology to detect RNA of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B. This technology can create a signal from a few copies of RNA in less than 30 minutes. The RT-LAMP amplification reaction occurs in two phases, a non-cyclic phase followed by a cyclic phase. During the non-cyclic phase, reverse transcriptase, with RNase H activity, converts the RNA target into cDNA. A DNA polymerase with strand displacement activity then amplifies the cDNA. A successful amplification reaction creates a pH change and subsequently a color change of the halochromic agents within the reaction mixture.
The Sample Vial contains an elution buffer that allows the swab contents to be eluted and lysed at room temperature, releasing viral and human RNA for downstream detection. Upon engagement of the Sample Vial and Test Unit, this eluant enters a fluidic module contained within the Test Unit that has several individual reaction chambers. The eluant resolubilizes lyophilized reagents contained within these chambers, which are needed to perform the RT-LAMP reaction. An internal electronic heating element detects this chamber filling and automatically turns on, initiating amplification within the reaction chambers. The reactions are confined within the fluidic unit and no other part of the Test Unit has contact with the sample during amplification.
The Test Unit contains two chambers that target SARS-CoV-2 RNA, two chambers that target Flu A, two chambers that target Flu B, and one chamber for a control (TIC). For SARS-CoV-2, the test targets two non-overlapping regions in the N gene and Orf7b/8 gene. For Influenza A, the test targets one region of Segment 5, two non-overlapping regions of Segment 7, and one region of Segment 8. For Influenza B, the test targets one region of Segment 5 and one region of Segment 8. For Influenza B, the test targets one region of Segment 5 and one region of Segment 8.
The color change of the reaction mixture is detected in real time using optical and electronic elements contained within the Test Unit. An on-board microprocessor analyzes the color change data to detect the presence of amplification, and hence the target RNA, in each chamber. A diagnostic algorithm, included in the device firmware, is then used to determine patient infectivity status and the results are shown via LED indicators. Results for the test are displayed as either positive, negative, or invalid. A positive result may show in as few as 11 minutes; a negative or invalid result will display in 30 minutes. The result display persists for a minimum of 8 hours and a maximum of 12 hours after the test has finished running.

If the test is POSITIVE
It is very likely you have COVID-19 (if the test result is positive for COVID-19) or flu (if the test result is positive for flu A or flu B) and it is important to be under the care of a healthcare provider. It is likely you will be asked to isolate yourself at home to avoid spreading the virus to others. There is a very small chance that this test can give a positive result that is wrong (a false positive). Your healthcare provider will work with you to determine how best to care for you based on your test results along with medical history and your symptoms.
If the test is NEGATIVE
A negative result means the virus that causes COVID-19 (if you test negative for COVID-19) or flu (if you test negative for flu A & flu B) was not found in your sample. However, it is possible for this test to give a negative result that is incorrect (a false negative) in some people with COVID-19 or flu. This means you could possibly still have COVID-19 or flu even though the test is negative. If this is the case, your healthcare provider will consider the test result with all other aspects of your history such as symptoms and possible exposures to decide how to care for you. It is important you work with your healthcare provider to help you understand the next steps you should take.
If the test is INVALID An invalid result means something with the test did not work properly. If the test result is invalid, the positive and negative lights on the device will be blinking/flashing. If your test shows an invalid result, retest or contact Lucira at 1-888- LUCIRA-4 to obtain a free replacement test.

5. Dispose of Test
After use remove the batteries, place the test unit in plastic disposal bag and dispose all test kit materials in trash. Do not allow the test unit to come into contact or be disposed of with bleach, as harmful gases could be emitted as a result.

PERFORMANCE CHARACTERISTICS

  1. Limit of Detection (LoD) – Analytical Sensitivity
    The limit of detection was determined for 5 human derived viral isolates individually (referred to as anchor strains): 1. Influenza A H3N2: A/HongKong/4801/2014 2. Influenza A H1N1pdm09: A/Michigan/45/2015 3. Influenza B, Yamagata Lineage: B/Phuket/3073/2013 4. Influenza B, Victoria Lineage: B/Colorado/6/2017 5. SARS-CoV-2: Heat Inactivated 2019-nCoV/USA-WA1/2020

Each virus was serially diluted into Natural Nasal Swab Matrix (NNSM), pipetted onto a fresh, unused nasal swab, and run on two device lots. NNSM was prepared by pooling negative patient specimens in viral transport media, previously tested negative for SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, and Influenza B. The preliminary LoD for the device was determined by testing at least three (3) target concentrations at 2-fold dilutions on each lot of devices. For each lot, each concentration was tested in replicates of seven (7) devices by three (3) unique operators, for a total of 21 replicates per concentration. Additionally, each operator ran two (2) Non-Template Controls (NTC) as negative controls immediately after each target concentration. The LoD for each lot was separately determined as the lowest concentration that yielded greater than 95% positive results. At least one of the concentrations run had to produce < 95% positive results for the virus. The preliminary LoD for the device was defined as the higher LoD of the two lots.

The LoD was confirmed by testing 20 replicates at the preliminary LoD concentration on a single lot for each target. Two (2) additional operators, who were not involved in determining the preliminary LoD, performed the confirmation testing by each running ten (10) devices from one lot at the determined preliminary LoD concentration. Each virus produced 19/20 positive replicates, confirming the LoD for each virus. Detailed results are shown in Table 1 through 5 and summarized in Table 6 below.

  • Since most tests utilize viral transfer media (VTM) as a matrix to elute the swab, the concentrations of genome equivalents per swab were also converted to corresponding concentrations of genome equivalents per mL of VTM (assuming 100% elution of a swab into 3 mL of VTM). For example, the concentration of 1260 genome equivalents (GE) per swab corresponds to 420 copies per mL of VTM.

Co-spike LoD Equivalency Study
To demonstrate that a co-spike of 3 viral targets does not impact the limit of detection, a confirmatory LoD study at the established LoD of 1X LoD was performed. All three targets (Co-spike 1: Influenza A/Michigan/45/2015, Influenza B/ Colorado/6/2017 and SARS-CoV-2 and Co-spike 2: Influenza A/Hong Kong/4801/2014, Influenza B/ Phuket/3073/2013 and SARS-CoV-2) were diluted in NNSM to a concentration of 3X LoD and then pooled together to form a co-spike at 1X LoD in NNSM. The NNSM containing all three targets at 1X LoD was then pipetted onto a fresh, unused nasal swab and tested per the instructions for use. The results demonstrated that 95% (for each of the three targets) of replicates were positive at 1X LoD, indicating that the LoD is confirmed in a triple co-spike and a cospike of all three targets is acceptable to use for additional studies. The presence of all three target analytes in a specimen did not adversely affect the analytical sensitivity of the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test.

  1. Inclusivity (Analytical Reactivity)
    a) Wet Testing The inclusivity of the Lucira assays was evaluated with 20 Influenza A strains (10 H1N1 pdm09 and 10 H3N2), 10 Influenza B strains (5 Yamagata and 5 Victoria lineages), and 3 SARS-CoV-2 strains representing temporal, geographic, and genetic diversity within the currently circulating subtypes and lineages. At least 2 strains from the last 5 years were selected for Influenza A H1N1pmo09, Influenza A H3N2 and Influenza B. All Influenza strains were quantified by an in-house, validated qPCR assay to standardized concentration units. SARS-CoV-2 strains were quantified by ddPCR by the supplier. All strains were individually tested at 3X LoD in 3 replicates to demonstrate inclusivity. The results are shown in Tables 8 through 10 below.

b) In silico
i) SARS-CoV-2 Predicted Reactivity Inclusivity of the Lucira SARS-CoV-2 Assay was demonstrated by in-silico reactivity of the assay against publicly available SARS-CoV-2 strains using the assay’s primers. SARS-CoV-2 sequences were downloaded from the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID, https:// www.gisaid.org) database monthly from December 1, 2020 through January 15, 2023. As of April 15, 2021, all SARS-Cov-2 sequences uploaded to GISAID each month are downloaded and up to 50,000 sequences are sampled. Prior to the April 15, 2021 datapoint, all sequences uploaded that month were included in the analysis. For each sample, sequences were imported into Geneious and trimmed to remove ambiguous bases, filtering by length post- trim to ensure coverage of target regions. Geneious was then used to predict primer binding, and binding results were analyzed to apply reactivity rules. Reactivity for a set was defined as having at most one mismatch on a primer, and no mismatches within 5 nucleotides of the leading edge for each primer. A single nucleotide mismatch in one of the primers for LAMP assays is not expected to impact the limit of detection, unless it is in the leading end of the primer as previously demonstrated by work on MERS-CoV (PMID 25103205). Between December 1, 2020 and January 15, 2023, 1,068,203 sequences were analyzed and 99.97% were found to be reactive.

ii) SARS-CoV-2 Reactivity Results by Variant For SARS-CoV-2, reactivity was also predicted for each Greek-letter variant monitored by WHO or CDC. Up to 10,000 sequences are sampled each month for each Greek-letter variant. Reactivity predictions based on established rules were tabulated by variant for the sample of SARS-CoV-2 sequences uploaded to GISAID between December 15, 2022, and January 15, 2023. The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test is predicted to be reactive to all variants identified. Specifically, within this dataset, 8776/8779 (99.97%) Omicron sequences were predicted to be reactive to the assay demonstrating that the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home test is reactive to the Omicron variant.

iii) Influenza Predicted Reactivity Sequences were downloaded for each targeted segment for each subtype: A/H3N2, A/pH1N1, B/Victoria, and B/ Yamagata. Sequences were imported to Geneious and trimmed to remove ambiguities, and then filtered by length to include only whole segment sequences. Primer binding with both primer sets was predicted using Geneious and results were analyzed using R to apply reactivity rules. Reactivity was defined as having at least one primer set with at most one SNP on each primer, and no SNPs within 5 nucleotides of the leading edge for each primer. All four subtypes had over 95% of sequences reactive for both the last year (December 2021 ­ January 2023) and the last 3 years (December 2019 ­ January 2023). All are also reactive to over 95% of sequences in the last 5 years (2017-2023).

  1. Cross-Reactivity (Analytical Specificity)

a) Wet Testing

The specificity of the assay was evaluated in cross-reactivity testing using 29 potential pathogens or

commensal organisms. For each organism, 35 L of undiluted organism was spiked onto a nasal swab with

35 L of NNSM. The swab was then eluted and run on the Lucira test. As shown below, the cross-reactivity

testing confirmed that none of the organisms were cross reactive with the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test at

the concentrations tested.

b) In Silico In silico analysis was conducted to verify the assay does not cross-react with other high prevalence disease agents and normal or pathogenic flora that are reasonably likely to be encountered in a clinical specimen. Whole genome sequences were downloaded from NCBI. Results are summarized below.
BLAST alignments were found for only two of the species tested: SARS-CoV-1 and Haemophilus influenzae. Since neither of these species had complete primer sets predicted to bind, they are not predicted to have cross reactivity with either primer set for any target analyte. SARS-CoV-1 has > 80% homology on individual primers for SARS-CoV-2 and Candida albicans and Staphylococcus salivarius have > 80% homology on individual primers for Influenza A and were tested and found not to have microbial interference, as shown in Table 18.

For each organism, nasal swabs were spiked with 35uL of each individual test microorganism and 35uL of a co-spike of SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A (A/Hong Kong/4801/2014) and B (B/Phuket/3073/2013) viral targets diluted in NNSM at 3X LoD final concentration of each virus. The swab was then eluted and run on the Lucira test.
The results showed that no microbial interference was detected.

  1. Endogenous/Exogenous Interference Substances Studies Endogenous interference studies were conducted to assess potential interference effects on the Lucira assay from substances that may naturally be present in respiratory specimens or artificially introduced onto the nasal swab. 35 µL of the potentially interfering substances listed in the table below was spiked onto the swab at the listed concentrations and evaluated with and without virus spikes:
    1. An Influenza A (A/Hong Kong/4801/2014) virus, Influenza B (B/Phuket/3073/2013) virus, and SARS-CoV-2 (2019-nCoV/USA-WA1/2020) virus, all at 3X LoD, were co-spiked to assess Influenza A, Influenza B and SARS-CoV-2 positive performance.
    2. NTC devices to evaluate performance in the absence of template.
    Substances that yielded 0/3 positive in valid NTC tests and 3/3 positive in valid POS tests were recorded as non-interfering. Invalid tests were repeated until 3 valid results were obtained. As shown in below, none of the substances tested showed interference effects with the Lucira assay.

  1. Usability and User Comprehension Study
    Lucira conducted Human Usability testing among a total sample of 200 healthy, non-symptomatic users to evaluate the ability of various ages, ethnicities, and education levels to successfully run the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test and interpret test results. 100% (200/200) of users were able to run the test on their own. Participants were each shown six (6) simulated test results and correctly interpreted 99.7% (1194/1200) of results.
  2. Clinical Study
    The clinical performance of the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test was evaluated with symptomatic subjects suspected of COVID-19. Two separate studies were utilized for analyzing performance of the SARS-CoV-2 component of the test.
    a) Clinical Study 1 Study 1 was performed using previously authorized Lucira COVID-19 All-In-One Test Kit (SARS-CoV-2 components are in separate chambers and there are no changes to the SARS-CoV-2 primers of this test with respect to the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test Kit). A total of 101 subjects were enrolled in the study. The subjects independently collected nasal swab samples and ran the test. The results were compared to a high sensitivity molecular FDA Authorized SARS-CoV-2 assay, using samples collected concurrently with those for the Lucira assay that were tested in clinical laboratories.

b) Clinical Study 2 Clinical performance of the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test was evaluated at seven (7) study sites. Prospective nasal samples were collected from patients with signs and symptoms consistent with respiratory infection in the US during the 2022-2023 flu season and were tested at the study sites.
Each patient sample was tested using the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test and a PCR method as the comparator assay (FDA emergency use authorized SARS-CoV-2 molecular assay and FDA cleared Influenza A&B molecular assay). The Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test was compared against results from the comparator assays.
For prospective specimens, a total of one thousand one hundred sixty-five (1165) subjects were enrolled in the study. One (1) participant withdrew prior to specimen collection and three (3) subjects were excluded due to previous participation. A total of one thousand one hundred sixty-one (1161) samples were evaluated in the performance analysis.
Of the total participants, nine hundred fifty-two (952) participants were evaluated for SARS-CoV-2 results (two hundred-nine (209) samples were assessed ineligible, 195 of which did not have comparator results), one thousand sixty- five (1065) samples were evaluated for Influenza A results (ninety-six (96) samples were assessed as ineligible, 82 of which did not have comparator results) and one thousand sixty-five (1065) samples were evaluated for Influenza B results (ninety-six (96) samples were assessed as ineligible, 82 of which did not have comparator result). Compared to the comparator assay, the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test demonstrated positive agreement of 88.3% and 90.0% for SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza A, respectively; and negative agreement of 100.0%, 99.3% and 99.9% for SARSCoV-2, Influenza A and Influenza B, respectively. No samples positive for Influenza B were collected during the study.

  1. Near the Cut-off Evaluation (NTCO)
    The Near The Cut-off (NTCO) evaluation study was performed to determine the effects of operator-to-operator variation. Contrived nasal swabs were run by untrained, intended users. The test included 40 well-characterized contrived nasal swab samples: 10 positive contrived samples at 2X LoD for SARS-CoV-2 virus in NNSM, 10 positive contrived samples at 2X LoD for Influenza A virus in NNSM, 10 positive contrived samples at 2X LoD for Influenza B virus in NNSM, and 10 negative contrived samples with NNSM only. This study design tested blinded, contrived swabs prepared by Lucira Health employees and run by ten untrained, intended users. All results in the study were valid and matched the expected results. Overall agreement with expected results was 100% for SARS-CoV-2, Influenza A, Influenza B Positive and Negative samples. The results demonstrate that untrained, intended users are able to use the Lucira COVID-19 & Flu Home Test and obtain the expected results.

LIMITATIONS
· Performance was evaluated with nasal swab specimens only, using the procedures provided in this instruction. · Failure to follow these procedures may alter test performance. · False negative results may occur if a specimen is improperly collected or handled. · False negative results may occur if inadequate levels of viruses are present in the specimen. · False negative results may occur if the virus mutates in the regions targeted by the test. · The test is a qualitative test and does not provide the quantitative value of detected organism present. · Cross-reactivity with respiratory tract organisms other than those tested in the Analytical Specificity Study may
lead to erroneous results. · This test cannot rule out diseases caused by other bacterial or viral pathogens. · Analyte targets (viral sequences) may persist in vivo, independent of virus viability. Detection of analyte
target(s) does not imply that the corresponding virus(s) are infectious, nor are the causative agents for clinical symptoms. · Positive and negative predictive values are dependent upon prevalence. False negative results are more likely during peak activity when disease prevalence is high and false positive results are more likely during periods of low activity. The performance of the test has not been established in individuals who received nasal administered Influenza vaccine. Individuals who received nasal administered Influenza A vaccine may have positive Influenza A test results for up to three days after vaccination. https://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/ mmwrhtml/rr57e717a1.htm · The performance of this test was established based on the evaluation of a limited number of clinical specimens. Clinical performance has not been established with all circulating variants of SARS- CoV-2 but is anticipated to be reflective of the prevalent variants in circulation at the time and location of the clinical evaluation. Performance at the time of testing may vary depending on the variants circulating, including newly emerging strains of SARS-CoV-2 and their prevalence, which change over time. · There is a higher chance of false negative results with home use tests than with laboratory-based molecular tests. This means that there is a higher chance this test will give you a negative result when you have COVID-19. · Performance characteristics for Influenza A was established with clinical specimens collected during the 2022 influenza season when H3N2 was the predominant influenza A virus subtype in circulation. When other influenza A viruses are emerging, performance characteristics may vary. · Influenza B performance was assessed by testing surrogate samples only; it was not assessed by testing natural influenza B positive clinical samples.
