Intended Use
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the lumbar spine, from L2 to SI, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment. The device is intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device system is designed for use with supplemental fixation and with autograft to facilitate fusion.
Device Description
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System will be offered in various device configurations based on surgical approach and patient anatomy, and consist of a Genesys Spine lumbar interbody fusion device, which may be implanted as a single device via a lateral approach. The Genesys Spine Interbody Fusion System implant components are made of polyether ether ketone (Invibio PEEK Optima LT)) that conforms to ASTM F2026. Additionally, the devices contain tantalum markers (ASTM F560) to assist the surgeon with proper placement of the device.
More Information

Not Found

No
The document describes a physical implant and surgical system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

No
The device is an interbody fusion system designed to facilitate spinal fusion in patients with degenerative disc disease, not to treat or cure a disease itself, but rather to provide mechanical support for fusion.

No

The device is an interbody fusion system designed to treat degenerative disc disease and is implanted to facilitate fusion. It does not perform diagnostic functions.

No

The device description explicitly states the system consists of implant components made of PEEK and tantalum markers, which are physical hardware components, not software.

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, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The provided information clearly describes a surgical implant (an interbody fusion system) designed to be placed within the lumbar spine to facilitate fusion. It is a physical device used in a surgical procedure, not a test performed on a sample outside the body.

The information provided focuses on the device's material, dimensions, intended anatomical site, and surgical application, all of which are characteristic of a medical device used in vivo (within the living body), not an IVD.

§ 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.

Dear Mr. Sowers:

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.
