The summary describes a physical brachytherapy applicator and contains no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis that would suggest the use of such technologies.
Yes
The device is intended to provide brachytherapy, which is a form of radiation therapy used to treat cancer. This is a therapeutic intervention, making the device a therapeutic device.
No
The device is used for delivering radiation therapy, which is a treatment method, not for diagnosing a condition.
No
The description focuses on a physical applicator for brachytherapy, which is a hardware device used to deliver radiation. There is no mention of software as the primary component or function.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to deliver radiation to the surgical margins following lumpectomy of breast cancer. This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one. IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Description (Not Found): While the description is missing, the intended use is the primary indicator.
- No Mention of Biological Specimens: There is no mention of the device interacting with or analyzing biological specimens (blood, tissue, urine, etc.), which is a core characteristic of IVDs.
This device is a therapeutic device used in the treatment of breast cancer.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Adjustable Multi-Catheter Source Applicator is intended to provide brachytherapy when the physician chooses to deliver intracavitary radiation to the surgical margins following lumpectomy of breast cancer.

Trade/Device Name: Adjustable Multi-Catheter Source Applicator Regulation Number: 21 CFR 892.5700 Regulation Name: Remote controlled radionuclide applicator system Regulatory Class: II Product Code: JAQ Dated: October 11, 2006 Received: October 12, 2006
Dear Mr. Spotten:
This letter corrects our substantially equivalent letter of November 9, 2006.
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance 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 the Adjustable Multi-Catheter Source Applicator for Brachytherapy as a replacement for whole breast irradiation in the treatment of breast cancer has not been established.
The Warning must be presented within a black box, and the font should be bold and the same size as any surrounding text. The Warning should be the first item in your list of warnings.
1
Please note that the above labeling limitations are required by Section 513(i)(1)(E) of the Act. Therefore, a new 510(k) is required before these limitations are modified in any way or removed from the device's labeling.
The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and permits your device to proceed to the market. This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510(k) premarket notification if the limitation statement described above is added to your labeling.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820); and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.
If you desire specific information about the application of other labeling requirements to your device (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at (240) 276-0100. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). You may obtain other general information on your responsibilities under the Act from the Division of Small Manufacturers, International, and Consumer Assistance at its toll-free number (800) 638-2041 or (240) 276-3150 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
