Intended Use
The Endoskeleton® TC is indicated for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine at one disc level from C-3 to C-7. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Patients should have received 6 weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device. The Endoskeleton® TC is indicated to be used with supplemental fixation and autograft bone.
Device Description
The Endoskeleton® TC is a cervical intervertebral body fusion device. The system is comprised of a variety of implant sizes to accommodate various patient anatomy and pathology. All implantable components are manufactured from medical grade titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V-ELI). The center of the implant is hollow and is to be filled with autograft material. The design incorporates "windows" through the implant to permit visualization of the graft material and, over time, formation of new bone.
More Information

Not Found

No
The summary describes a passive implantable device for spinal fusion and does not mention any software, algorithms, or data processing capabilities that would indicate the use of AI/ML.

Yes
The device is indicated for anterior cervical interbody fusion for degenerative disc disease, which is a treatment for a medical condition.

No

The device is an intervertebral body fusion device indicated for surgical treatment of degenerative disc disease, not for diagnosing conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states the device is comprised of implantable components manufactured from medical grade titanium alloy, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description: The Endoskeleton® TC is an implantable surgical device designed to be placed within the body to facilitate bone fusion in the cervical spine. It is a physical structure, not a tool for analyzing biological samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is for anterior cervical interbody fusion, a surgical procedure. It does not involve testing or analyzing samples outside the body.

The information provided clearly describes a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3080 Intervertebral body fusion device.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required. Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

Predicate Devices

The Endoskeleton® TC was shown to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. The predicate devices include the BAK/C® Interbody Device by Zimmer Spine/Spine-Tech (P980048), the Phantom™ Plus Cage System by US Spine (K082801), the Zeus by Interbody Innovations (K081614), and the Aesculap® CeSpace PEEK Spinal Implant System (K083311).

Intended Use / Indications for Use

The Endoskeleton® TC is indicated for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine at one disc level from C-3 to C-7. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. Patients should have received 6 weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device. The Endoskeleton® TC is indicated to be used with supplemental fixation and autograft bone.

Summary of Non-Clinical Testing

The following mechanical testing was performed: static and dynamic axial compression, · static and dynamic compression shear, and static and dynamic torsion per ASTM F2077; subsidence testing per ASTM F2267; and expulsion testing as recommended by the FDA Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device. The preclinical testing performed indicated that the Endoskeleton® TC is adequate for the intended use.

Substantial Equivalence

The Endoskeleton® TC has the same intended use and substantially similar indications for use, technological characteristics and principles of operation as the identified predicate devices. There are no significant differences between the Endoskeleton® TC and other systems currently being marketed that would adversely affect the use of the product. Any differences in technological characteristics do not raise new issues of safety or efficacy. Further, testing demonstrates substantially equivalent performance between the device and the predicates. Accordingly, the Endoskeleton® TC is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in design, function, material, and intended use.

Dear Dr. Smith:

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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you; however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

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
