No
The summary describes a physical implant device made of PEEK, titanium, and tantalum, intended for spinal fusion. There is no mention of software, algorithms, image processing, AI, ML, or any data-driven components. The performance studies are mechanical tests.
Yes
The device is described as "intended for spinal fusion procedures" and "to replace a vertebral body that has been resected or excised due to tumor or traumalfracture." These uses indicate it is designed to treat conditions and restore bodily function, which aligns with the definition of a therapeutic device.
No
This device is an implantable fusion system (Intervertebral body fusion device/VBR) used for spinal fusion and replacement, not for diagnosing conditions.
No
The device description explicitly states that the implants are manufactured from physical materials (PEEK-OPTIMA® LT1, titanium alloy, and tantalum) and are physical implants intended for surgical procedures. This is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In vitro diagnostics are tests performed on samples taken from the human body, such as blood, urine, or tissue, to detect diseases, conditions, or infections.
- Device Description: The description clearly states that the Lanx Fusion System is an implantable device made of PEEK, titanium alloy, and tantalum. It is designed to be surgically placed within the spine.
- Intended Use: The intended use describes the device's purpose as a spinal fusion device and vertebral body replacement, used in surgical procedures to treat conditions like degenerative disc disease, tumors, and fractures. This involves direct implantation into the body, not testing of samples outside the body.
Therefore, the Lanx Fusion System is a surgical implant, not an in vitro diagnostic device.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
- When used as a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, the Lanx Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System ("Lanx Fusion System") is intended for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease ("DDD") at one spinal level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment. The Lanx Cervical Intervertebral Body Fusion System is to be implanted via an anterior approach and is to be combined with supplemental fixation. Approved supplemental fixation systems include the Lanx Anterior Cervical Plate System.
- When used as a lumbar intervertebral body fusion device, the Lanx Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System ("Lanx Fusion System") is intended for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease ("DD") at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. These DDD patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s), and may have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). The Lanx Fusion System is to be implanted via an anterior or posterior approach and is to be combined with supplemental fixation. Approved supplemental fixation systems include the Lanx Spinal Fixation System.
- When used as vertebral body replacement, the Lanx Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System ("Lanx Fusion System") is indicated for use to replace a vertebral body that has been resected or excised due to tumor or trauma/fracture. The device is intended for use as a vertebral body replacement in the thoracolumbar spine (from T1 to L5) The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System may also be used in the thoracolumbar spine (i.e., TI- L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column. For either indication the system must be used with supplemental internal fixation. Supplemental internal fixation is required to properly utilize this system.

(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.

All implants in the Lanx Fusion System are manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA® LT1 per ASTM F2026, titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) per ASTM F136, and tantalum per ASTM F560. The implants have a hollowed out area to accommodate autogenous bone graft, and transverse grooves to improve fixation and stability. The implants are offered in a variety of footprints and heights to accommodate anatomical variation in different vertebral levels and/or patient anatomy. The Lanx Fusion System is provided non-sterile.
Statement of Technological Comparison
The additional cervical intervertebral body fusion device implants have the same intended use and indications, principles of operation, and technological characteristics as the cervical intervertebral body fusion device implants of the previously-cleared Lanx Fusion System. The minor differences between the modified and previously-cleared systems do not raise any new issues related to safety or efficacy. Mechanical testing demonstrated comparable mechanical properties between the modified and predicate devices.

Approved supplemental fixation systems include the Lanx Anterior Cervical Plate System.
When used as a lumbar intervertebral body fusion device, the Lanx Intervertebral Body/VBR Fusion System ("Lanx Fusion System") is intended for spinal fusion procedures to be used with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease ("DDD") at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment.

is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The Lanx Vertebral Body Replacement System is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle, and posterior spinal column. For either indication the system must be used with supplemental internal fixation. Supplemental internal fixation is required to properly utilize this svstem.
Performance Data
Performance was established via mechanical testing that included static and dynamic compression and static and dynamic torsion per ASTM F2077 and subsidence testing per ASTM F2267. In all instances, the Lanx Fusion System met the established acceptance criteria and performed as intended.
Substantial Equivalence
The Lanx Fusion System is as safe and effective as the predicate Lanx Fusion System (K083815), LDR Spine MC+ Cervical Interbody Fusion System (K091088), and the Spinal Elements Crystal Cervical Cage System (K073351).
The additional cervical intervertebral body fusion device implants included in the product line extension have the same intended use, indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the cervical intervertebral body fusion device implants of the previously-cleared Lanx Fusion System (K083815). Performance data demonstrate that these additions to the Lanx Fusion System do not raise new issues related to safety or efficacy; hence the modified system is as safe and effective as the predicate devices. Thus, the modified device is substantially equivalent.
