The document describes a passive implant (interbody cage) and does not mention any computational or analytical capabilities, let alone AI/ML. The "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML" section explicitly states "Not Found".
Yes
The device, an Interbody Cage, is used in patients with degenerative disc disease for intervertebral body fusion to address discogenic back pain, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
Explanation: The device is an intervertebral body fusion device used to treat degenerative disc disease, not to diagnose it. Its purpose is treatment and stabilization, not diagnostic imaging or analysis.
No
The device description clearly states the device is an implantable interbody cage made from PEEK or titanium alloy, which are physical materials, not software.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVDs are used to examine specimens from the human body. The description clearly states the Interbody Cage is an implantable device intended for surgical use within the lumbar spine (L2 to S1). It is a physical device implanted into the body, not a test performed on a sample taken from the body.
- The intended use is for surgical fusion. The purpose of the device is to facilitate the fusion of vertebrae in patients with degenerative disc disease. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test.
- The device description details materials and physical characteristics. The description focuses on the materials (PEEK, titanium), dimensions, and styles of the implant, which are relevant to a surgical device, not a diagnostic test.
- Radiographic studies are mentioned as part of the patient evaluation, not as the output of the device itself. The radiographic studies are used to confirm the diagnosis of degenerative disc disease and assess the patient's condition, not as a result generated by the Interbody Cage.
In summary, the Interbody Cage is a surgical implant used for spinal fusion, which falls under the category of medical devices, but not In Vitro Diagnostic devices.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
The Interbody Cage is indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. These devices are intended for intervertebral body fusion, and are intended to be used with supplemental fixation instrumentation which has been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.

Device Description
The Interbody Cage is offered in a variety of heights, widths, and lengths. The implants are manufactured from medical grade polyetheretherketone (PEEK) or titanium alloy. The devices are intended to be implanted either one device per level when used in the ALIF, Banana, or Lateral styles, and one or two devices per level when used in the PLIF/TLIF style. Tantalum pins are embedded in the PEEK versions of the implants to help allow for radiographic visualization.

(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. Eisermann:
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.

S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondvlolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. These devices are intended for intervertebral body fusion, and are intended to be used with supplemental fixation instrumentation which as been cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
Materials
The devices are manufactured either from medical grade PEEK (ASTM F2026) with tantalum radiographic markers (ASTM F560), or from titanium alloy (ASTM F136). The specific grades of PEEK used may be either Zeniva ZA-500 (Solvay) or Vestakeep 4iR (Evonik).
Predicate Devices
Primary Predicate:
Eisertech, LLC PLIF Cage (K113478)
Additional Predicates:
Titan Spine Endoskeleton (K083714) Alphatec GLIF Cage (K090425)
Reference Predicates:

Technological Characteristics
The Interbody Cage geometry is similar to that cleared in K113478. The worstcase size testing submitted as part of K113478 applies to all devices that are part of this current submission.
The main material of construction is either PEEK (ASTM F2026) or titanium allov (ASTM F136). When used, the PEEK may be either Zeniva ZA-500 supplied by Solvay Advanced Polymers, which is one of the materials approved in K113478, or Vestakeep i4R, supplied by Evonik, Inc, which is the new material option being requested.
Performance Data
The additional materials and sizes do not alter the performance of the device. The additional PEEK option is equivalent in mechanical properties. The devices

made from titanium alloy are substantially stronger than those made from PEEK. All additional sizes are larger in bearing footprint than the worst-case size tested for K113478. Additional testing (compression) per ASTFM F2077 verified that the addition of new materials did not introduce a new worst-case. Therefore, the subject Interbody Cage is substatially equivalent to its predicates.
