The Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System is intended as a palliative treatment of malignant neoplasms in the biliary tree.
The Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System is intended for palliation of malignant strictures in the biliary tree.
The Protégé stent is a self-expanding nitinol stent with an open lattice design. The stent is electropolished. The device is provided premounted on a delivery catheter. Upon deployment the constrained stent self-expands to conform to the duct inner luminal surface.
The provided text is a 510(k) Premarket Notification summary for the Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System. This type of submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device, rather than proving the device meets specific acceptance criteria through a clinical study with detailed performance metrics.
Therefore, the document does not contain the information requested in points 1-9 regarding acceptance criteria and a detailed study proving the device meets them.
Instead, the key takeaway from the provided text is:
- Acceptance Criteria and Device Performance: The document states that "Performance testing (bench) further supports a substantial equivalence claim. The collective evidence therefore provides assurance that the Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System meets the requirements that are considered acceptable for the intended use." However, specific numerical acceptance criteria and the reported device performance against those criteria are not provided.
- Study Type: The study conducted was primarily bench testing to support a claim of "substantial equivalence" to a predicate device, rather than a clinical study evaluating specific performance metrics against pre-defined acceptance criteria.
- No Information on:
- Sample size for the test set or data provenance
- Number or qualifications of experts for ground truth establishment
- Adjudication method
- Multi-reader multi-case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study
- Standalone algorithm performance (this is not an AI device)
- Type of ground truth
- Sample size for the training set
- How ground truth for the training set was established
In summary, the provided submission is a 510(k) for a medical device (biliary stent) that relies on demonstrating substantial equivalence through bench testing. It does not include the detailed clinical study information and acceptance criteria that would typically be found for a novel device or an AI/software as a medical device (SaMD) where performance metrics against a defined ground truth are central to acceptance.

This summary is provided in compliance with section 513(I)(3)(A) of the Act and summarizes the safety and effectiveness information contained in this premarket notification submission for a modification to the Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System.
The Protégé® EverFlex™ Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System is intended as a palliative treatment of malignant neoplasms in the biliary tree.
The Protégé stent is a self-expanding nitinol stent with an open lattice design. The stent is electropolished. The device is provided premounted on a delivery catheter. Upon deployment the constrained stent self-expands to conform to the duct inner luminal surface.
The modified device is substantially equivalent* to the currently marketed stent and delivery system in intended use, materials, technological characteristics and performance. Additional more flexible stent models have been added to the 6Fr 0.035" delivery system. Performance testing (bench) further supports a substantial equivalence claim. The collective evidence therefore provides assurance that the Protégé® EverFlex™Self-Expanding Biliary Stent System meets the requirements that are considered acceptable for the intended use.
*This document uses the term "substantial equivalence" as intended in 21 CFR 807.87, and not as defined in Title 35 of the US Code.

Dear Ms. Sommerfeld:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device w for how e a your ca your sectermined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for referentod in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce ass stated in the encreat date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that prior to thay 20, 1970, are cordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act and the limitations described below. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
The Office of Device Evaluation has determined that there is a reasonable likelihood that this device will be used for an intended use not identified in the proposed labeling and that such use could cause harm. Therefore, in accordance with Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act, the following limitation must appear in the Warnings section of the device's labeling:
The safety and effectiveness of this device for use in the vascular system have not been established.
Furthermore, the indication for biliary use must be prominently displayed in all labeling, including pouch, box, and carton labels, instructions for use, and other promotional materials, in close proximity to the trade name, of a similar point size, and in bold print.
