QIAGEN Clinical Insight Interpret is the first NGS interpretation platform to be certified under IVDR for both oncology and hereditary applications. As a medical device software for clinical decision support (Class C IVD Medical Device), QIAGEN Clinical Insight Interpret conforms with regulatory policy, ensuring greater patient protection, information transparency, and data traceability.
Countries where QCI-IVDR is approved for use*:
*The updated certified version will become available for additional European customers through 2025, depending on requirements for sale in respective countries.
Current users of QCI Interpret in Europe must transition to IVDR-certified software to comply with the In Vitro Diagnostic Regulation (IVDR). Please contact your sales representative to learn more about the transition.
QIAGEN Clinical Insight Interpret is a universal solution for tertiary analysis that can be used with any validated panel and sequencing platform. It provides variant annotation, classification, interpretation and reporting of somatic and germline NGS tests. The QCI Interpret product has been used to analyze and interpret over 4 million NGS patient test cases worldwide, making it one of the most widely used and universally respected platforms for efficiently accessing clinical evidence to support confident decision‑making in genetic testing.
As a medical device software for clinical decision support (Class C IVD Medical Device), QIAGEN Clinical Insight Interpret conforms with regulatory policy, ensuring greater patient protection, information transparency, and data traceability.
Unlike the EU, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA, North America), or other regulatory authorities (in different countries), have yet to take the next steps to regulate clinical decision support software that helps in analyzing and interpreting NGS variants.
The FDA is currently seeking community input and, with the final rule by FDA aimed at helping to ensure the safety and effectiveness of laboratory-developed tests (LDTs), it is becoming apparent that more and more IVD assays will become available (The ILLUMINA® TSO500 assay is in the process of IVD approval), which will require analysis and interpretation of NGS variants using a clinical decision support software that is compliant with an IVD assay quality management system. Essentially the FDA is expected to regulate the clinical decision support software, like the EU, in the future.
The fact that QCI Interpret is already IVDR approved, whenever the FDA decides to regulate clinical decision support software, QCI Interpret will readily be able to comply without any downtime, unlike other assays.
