Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is "Percutaneous Transluminal Angioplasty of obstructive lesions of synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae." This describes a surgical procedure performed directly on a patient's body to treat a physical obstruction.
  • Device Description: The description details a physical catheter with a balloon and blades designed for mechanical intervention within a blood vessel.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.

IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for a therapeutic procedure.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

Bench testing and biocompatibility testing were performed to support a determination of substantial equivalence. The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the proposed device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its intended use.

The 1 cm Peripheral Cutting Balloon™ was studied in a prospectively randomized clinical trial, Cutting EDGE (CUTTING Balloon HEmoDialysis Access ManaGEment Trial) that compared the Peripheral Cutting Balloon to conventional angioplasty (PTA) in the treatment of stenosed or thrombosed synthetic hemodialysis grafts. The study enrolled 340 patients, 173 in the Peripheral Cutting Balloon arm and 167 in the PTA arm at 27 centers in the US. The primary endpoint was primary patency through 6 months post-procedure. Secondary efficacy endpoints included: access circuit primary patency; procedural success; and the number of target lesion reinterventions through 6 months. Secondary endpoints also included safety: occurrence of adverse events. Adverse events were adjudicated by a CEC; a DSMB reviewed safety information throughout the enrollment portion of the study.

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon is not signficantly different from PTA with respect to the rate of target lesion primary patency through 6 months post-proccdure: 47.9% pcs vs. 40.5% PTA.D=0.37.

The target lesion primary patency rates for subjects with stenosed grafts were not significantly different: 51.3% Kir vs. 46.9% PTA . p = 0.84.

The PCB target lesion primary patency for thrombosed grafts was greater but not significant: 43.1% PCB vs. 32.0% PTA, p = 0.15.

Sccondary efficacy endpoints did not differ significantly between treatments: procedural success, p = 0.24; hemodialysis access circuit patency at 6-months, p = 0.45; mean number of target lesion reinterventions through 6 months, n = 0.22. Subjects with thrombosed grafts had fewer target lesion interventions after treatment with the Peripheral Cutting Balloon; the difference between means is marginally significant: 0.7 pcu vs. 1.0 pra, p = 0.06.

Device-related events, limited to dissections and perforations, were significantly more frequent in the Peripheral Cutting Balloon arm: 1.7% (3/173) dissections and 2.9% (5/173) perforations after use of the Peripheral Cutting Balloon vs. no events in the PTA arm (p = 0.007). When the dissection and perforation rates are considered independently, rather than pooled, the rates are not significantly different. Two of the cases (one perforation and one dissection) are protocol deviations because the Peripheral Cutting Balloon was oversized beyond the limits specified in the Directions for Use. The Peripheral Cutting Balloon perforation rate of 2.9% falls within this expected range.

Only PTA balloons were used for reinterventions; 213 reinterventions were recorded during the trial. Among these reintervention procedures, there were two procedurerelated vessel ruptures and two device-related perforations.

In summary, the Peripheral Cutting Balloon™ is not significantly different from conventional angioplasty in overall safety and effectiveness.

Intended Use

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon catheters are recommended for Percutancous Transluminal Angioplasty of obstructive lesions in synthetic arteriovenous dialysis fistulae.

Substantial Equivalence

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon catheters will incorporate a substantially equivalent design, fundamental technology and intended use as those featured in predicate devices.

Performance Testing

Bench testing and biocompatibility testing were performed to support a determination of substantial cquivalence. The results of these tests provide reasonable assurance that the proposed device has been designed and tested to assure conformance to the requirements for its intended use.

Clinical Experience

The 1 cm Peripheral Cutting Balloon™ was studied in a prospectively randomized clinical trial, Cutting EDGE (CUTTING Balloon HEmoDialysis Access ManaGEment Trial) that compared the Peripheral Cutting Balloon to conventional angioplasty (PTA) in the treatment of stenosed or thrombosed synthetic hemodialysis grafts. The study enrolled 340 patients, 173 in the Peripheral Cutting Balloon arm and 167 in the PTA arm at 27 centers in the US. The primary endpoint was primary patency through 6 months post-procedure. Secondary efficacy endpoints included: access circuit primary patency; procedural success; and the number of target lesion reinterventions through 6 months. Secondary endpoints also included safety: occurrence of adverse events. Adverse events were adjudicated by a CEC; a DSMB reviewed safety information throughout the enrollment portion of the study.

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon is not signficantly different from PTA with respect to the rate of target lesion primary patency through 6 months post-proccdure: 47.9% pcs vs. 40.5% PTA.D=0.37.

The target lesion primary patency rates for subjects with stenosed grafts were not significantly different: 51.3% Kir vs. 46.9% PTA . p = 0.84. The national Kidney Foundation; Kidney Disease Outcome Quality Initiative for Vascular Access (KDOQI) suggests achievable primary patency rates in this group of patients to be about 50% at 6 months.

The PCB target lesion primary patency for thrombosed grafts was greater but not significant: 43.1% PCB vs. 32.0% PTA, p = 0.15. KDOQI guidelines suggest that 40% patency is typical at 3 months; the Quality Improvement Guidelines for Percutancous Management of the Thrombosed or Dysfunctional Dialysis Access suggest that 20% patency is typical at 6 months. The target lesion primary patency rate for subjects

treated with the Peripheral Cutting Balloon was more than double the expected rate, suggesting a clinical benefit.

Sccondary efficacy endpoints did not differ significantly between treatments: procedural success, p = 0.24; hemodialysis access circuit patency at 6-months, p = 0.45; mean number of target lesion reinterventions through 6 months, n = 0.22. Subjects with thrombosed grafts had fewer target lesion interventions after treatment with the Peripheral Cutting Balloon; the difference between means is marginally significant: 0.7 pcu vs. 1.0 pra, p = 0.06.

Device-related events, limited to dissections and perforations, were significantly more frequent in the Peripheral Cutting Balloon arm: 1.7% (3/173) dissections and 2.9% (5/173) perforations after use of the Peripheral Cutting Balloon vs. no events in the PTA arm (p = 0.007). When the dissection and perforation rates are considered independently, rather than pooled, the rates are not significantly different. Two of the cases (one perforation and one dissection) are protocol deviations because the Peripheral Cutting Balloon was oversized beyond the limits specified in the Directions for Use. The Quality Improvement Guidelines for Percutaneous Management of the Thrombosed or Dysfunctional Dialysis Access, updated in 2003, summarizes published complication rates. Based on the literature, the expected rate of vascular perforations or ruptures from the perculaneous management of hemodialysis is 2% to 4%. The Peripheral Cutting Balloon perforation rate of 2.9% falls within this expected range.

Only PTA balloons were used for reinterventions; 213 reinterventions were recorded during the trial. Among these reintervention procedures, there were two procedurerelated vessel ruptures and two device-related perforations. Although no vessel perforations or ruptures occurred with PTA at the index procedure, these expected events did occur during reinterventions.

In summary, the Peripheral Cutting Balloon™ is not significantly different from conventional angioplasty in overall safety and effectiveness.

Conclusion

The Peripheral Cutting Balloon catheter has been shown to be Substantially Equivalent to the predicate devices.
