Intended Use

The SignalMark Breast Marker is intended to provide accuracy in marking a surigcal site and/or a biopsy location for visualization during surgical resection.

Device Story

Device is an implantable hydrogel marker used to identify biopsy or surgical sites in breast tissue; percutaneously placed by physician in hospital or clinic setting. Consists of applicator (plastic/stainless steel) and marker pad (USP-grade porcine gelatin-based hydrogel with methylene blue-colored silicon dioxide microspheres). Marker expands upon fluid contact; visible under ultrasound. Surgeon uses marker to locate biopsy site for subsequent tissue or tumor resection; aids in surgical accuracy. Device provided in multiple formats (three 1.0 cm pads or one 3.0 cm pad) to allow physician control over placement.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing (visual inspection, deployment, dimensional, stroke length, compression, tensile, hydration, ultrasound visualization, labeling, packaging) and animal testing (rodent biodistribution, porcine safety/efficacy, and porcine biologic response). Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1.

Technological Characteristics

Implantable clip (21 CFR 878.4300). Components: Applicator (plastic/stainless steel) and Marker Pad (USP-grade porcine gelatin-based hydrogel with methylene blue-colored silicon dioxide microspheres). Mechanism: Absorbable hydrogel expands on fluid contact; ultrasound-visible. Non-powered, manual deployment.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adults undergoing open surgical breast biopsy or percutaneous breast biopsy to mark surgical or biopsy sites for visualization during resection.

It is intended to be used on adults undergoing open surgical breast biopsy or percutaneous breast biopsy, in a surgical setting, such as a hospital or medical clinic with operating suites. The SignalMark Breast Marker consists of two components: - . Applicator: Component made of plastic and stainless steel that pushes the marker into the tissue. {4}------------------------------------------------ ## 510(k) Summary - Marker Pad: Component made of USP-grade porcine gelatin-based hydrogel with methylene blue-colored silicon dioxide microspheres. The marker aids in the visualization of tissue allowing surgeons to readily locate the biopsy site for subsequent tissue or tumor resection. ### PREDICATE DEVICE IDENTIFICATION SignalMark Breast Marker is substantially equivalent to the following predicate: | 510(k) Number | Predicate Device Name / Manufacturer | Primary Predicate | |---------------|------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------| | K060769 | HydroMark Biopsy Site Marker /<br>Biopsy Sciences, Inc. | ✓ | | K180175 | SignalMark Lung Biopsy Site Marker /<br>View Point Medical, Inc. | (Reference device) | ## SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL TESTING No FDA performance standards have been established for the SignalMark Breast Marker. Patient-contacting material was subjected to biocompatibility testing in compliance with ISO 10993-1 Biological evaluation of medical devices – Part 1: Evaluation and testing with a risk management process. The following tests were performed to demonstrate equivalence to the predicate device: - Performance testing (Bench) ● - Visual Inspection of the Applicator O - o Applicator Deployment Test - Applicator Dimensional Inspection O - Applicator Stroke Length Test O - O Applicator Compression Test - Applicator Tensile Test O - Visual Inspection of the Marker Pad O - O Marker Pad Diameter - Marker Pad Hydration O - Marker Pad Ultrasound Visual Test O - Labeling wipe test with 70% IPA O - Packaged Contents Verification O - Performance testing (Animal) ● - O Biodistribution in rodents - Safety and efficacy in porcine o - Biologic response in porcine O {5}------------------------------------------------ ## 510(k) Summary View Point MEDICAL ## EQUIVLANCE TO PREDICATE DEVICE The SignalMark Breast Marker is substantially equivalent to the predicate device based on the information summarized here: The subject device has the same intended use and uses similar materials as the device cleared in K060769; namely, both are meant to mark a biopsy location in breast tissue and both use an absorbable hydrogel that expands on fluid contact. Additionally, both devices are visible under ultrasound. The subject device also has a similar design and dimensions and uses identical materials as the device cleared in K180175. Key technological characteristics of the subject device and reference device (K180175) remain identical; in particular the Applicator and chemical composition of the USP-grade porcine gelatin-based hydrogel Marker Pad with methylene blue-colored, silicon dioxide microspheres. The main difference is that the subject device is provided in two formats (three 1.0 cm pads or one 3.0 cm pad) whereas the reference device is only provided in one format (one 3.0 cm pad). This new format has been added to allow physicians more control over how they place the device in breast tissue, though the total volume of the implant remains the same as the device cleared in K180175. ## CONCLUSION Based on the testing performed, including biocompatibility and non-clinical performance testing (bench and animal), it can be concluded that the subject device does not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness compared to the predicate devices. The similar indications for use, technological characteristics, and performance characteristics for the proposed SignalMark Breast Marker are assessed to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
