Intended Use
The RadiaPak™ Brachytherapy Applicator Balloon Device is a single use, non-sterile, disposable, inflatable, non-powered positioning device, manufactured without the use of latex, intended to be used on a daily treatment basis to position and stabilize the brachytherapy radiation delivery applicator within the vagina or rectum during brachytherapy radiation therapy procedures, x-ray, or computed tomography (CT) exam. The placement of the balloon device requires a physician directed healthcare professional.
Device Description
The RadiaPak™ Device is designed to position and stabilize the brachytherapy applicator and to space the applicator surface from the targeted vaginal or rectal mucosa during computed tomography and brachytherapy procedures. The proposed device is a latex free balloon and can be inflated with either air or saline, is provided non-sterile, and is intended for single use.
More Information

Not Found

No
The device description and intended use clearly define it as a non-powered, inflatable positioning and stabilization device. There is no mention of any computational or analytical functions that would typically involve AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section is explicitly marked as "Not Found".

No

Explanation: The device is described as a "positioning device" intended to stabilize and space a brachytherapy radiation delivery applicator. Its function is to assist in the delivery of radiation, not to deliver a therapeutic effect itself.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a 'positioning device' and is used to 'position and stabilize the brachytherapy radiation delivery applicator'. Its function is to facilitate the delivery of therapy, not to diagnose a condition. While it can be used during X-ray or CT exams, these are not for diagnostic purposes of the device itself, but rather to aid in the accurate placement of the therapeutic applicator.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical, inflatable balloon device intended for positioning and stabilization, not a software product.

No, 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. They are used to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • RadiaPak™ Function: The RadiaPak™ Brachytherapy Applicator Balloon Device is a physical device used within the body (vagina or rectum) to position and stabilize a brachytherapy applicator. It does not analyze biological samples or provide diagnostic information based on those samples.
  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states its purpose is for "positioning and stabilizing the brachytherapy radiation delivery applicator within the vagina or rectum during brachytherapy radiation therapy procedures, x-ray, or computed tomography (CT) exam." This is a procedural and positioning function, not a diagnostic one.

The device is a medical device used in a therapeutic procedure (brachytherapy) and for imaging purposes (x-ray, CT), but it does not fit the definition of an in vitro diagnostic.

Non-Clinical Data - Biocompatibility & Performance Testing

As part of demonstrating the safety and effectiveness of the RadiaPak™ Device and in showing substantial equivalence to the predicate devices. RadiaDyne performed biocompatibility testing in accordance with ISO 10993-1, as well as performance testing to determine balloon fill volume and fill pressure.

Clinical Data

RadiaDyne's is not submitting any clinical data in support of its 510(k) submission to the FDA for the RadiaPak™ Device as no such clinical data was submitted by VivaRay for its Capri™ Applicator or by RadiaDyne for its Alatus® Vaginal Balloon Packing System.

Substantial Equivalence

By definition, a device is substantially equivalent to a predicate device when the device has the same intended use and the same technological characteristics as the previously cleared predicate device, or has the same intended use and different technological characteristics, but it can be demonstrated that the new device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, and that the new device does not raise different questions regarding its safety and effectiveness compared to the predicate device.

lt has been shown in this 510(k) submission that the differences between the RadiaPak™ Brachytherapy Applicator Balloon Device and both the Capri™ Applicator and the Alatus® Vaginal Balloon Packing System do not raise any questions regarding its safety and effectiveness. RadiaDyne's RadiaPak™ Device, as designed and manufactured, is therefore determined to be substantially equivalent to the Capri™ and Alatus® devices previously cleared under K092822 and K092534, respectively.

Dear Mr. Goldman:

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 class II (Special Controls), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in Title 21, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Parts 800 to 895. 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 or any 1 vith all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Parts 801 and 809); medical device reporting (reporting of

5

medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); and good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820). 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 Parts 801 and 809), please contact the Office of In Vitro Diagnostic Device Evaluation and Safety at (301) 796-5450. Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to

http://www.fda.gov/MedicalDevices/Safety/ReportaProblem/default.htm for the CDRH's Office of Surveillance and Biometrics/Division of Postmarket Surveillance.

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 (301) 796-7100 or at its Internet address http://www.fda.gov/cdrh/industry/support/index.html.
