Intended Use
Implant Sciences Model HDR 4454 Source Assembly, with individual activity up to 27Ci, is indicated for temporary interstitial, intracavitary, intraluminal or intraoperative or surface application to treat selected localized tumors. This source can be used as primary treatment for a variety of anatomical sites commonly treated with high dose rate brachytherapy, including the cervix, vagina, endometrium, rectum, esophagus, bronchus, head and neck, bile duct brain, skin, prostate, lung, pancreas, and breast and for treatment of sarcomas and for intraoperative radiation therapy. This source may be used concurrently with or following treatment with other interventions, such as external beam radiation therapy, hyperthermia or chemotherapy.
Device Description
Implant Sciences Corp. Model HDR-4454 is a singly-encapsulated 160 Ytterbium Brachytherapy Source. It consists of a stainless steel capsule containing solid radioactive feer thium pellets. The pellets are sealed in a stainless steel capsule that is attached to a cable to permit manipulation by the remote afterloading system.
More Information

Not Found

No
The 510(k) summary describes a radioactive source for brachytherapy and does not mention any AI or ML components in its description, intended use, or performance studies.

Yes
The indicated use of the device is for temporary interstitial, intracavitary, intraluminal or intraoperative or surface application to treat selected localized tumors, which is a therapeutic purpose.

No
The device is described as a brachytherapy source used for treating localized tumors, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical brachytherapy source consisting of a stainless steel capsule containing radioactive pellets attached to a cable. This is a hardware device, not software.

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 for treating localized tumors through radiation therapy (brachytherapy). This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient's body.
  • Device Description: The device is a radioactive source designed to be implanted or applied to the body for treatment.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens (like blood, urine, tissue) taken from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform any such analysis of specimens.

Therefore, the Implant Sciences Model HDR 4454 Source Assembly is a therapeutic medical device, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 892.5730 Radionuclide brachytherapy source.

(a)
Identification. A radionuclide brachytherapy source is a device that consists of a radionuclide which may be enclosed in a sealed container made of gold, titanium, stainless steel, or platinum and intended for medical purposes to be placed onto a body surface or into a body cavity or tissue as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A prostate seeding kit intended for use with a radionuclide brachytherapy source only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

Dear Mr. Hollows:

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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. 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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such 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.

Image /page/1/Picture/10 description: The image is a black and white circular logo. The logo has the text "1906-2006" at the top, followed by the letters "FDA" in a bold, stylized font. Below the letters, the word "Centennial" is written in a cursive font. Three stars are arranged in a horizontal line below the word "Centennial". The text "U.S. Food & Drug Administration" is arranged around the circle.

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.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your Section 510/k) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your device to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801), please contact the Office of Compliance at one of the following numbers, based on the regulation number at the top of this letter:
