Intended Use
The Axxent Cervical Applicator is indicated for use with the Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System to deliver high dose rate brachytherapy for intracavitary treatment of cancer of the uterus, cervix, endometrium and vagina.
Device Description
The Axxent Cervical Applicator is a component of the Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System (cleared under K122951) which utilizes a proprietary miniaturized X-ray source and does not require radioactive isotopes. The applicator allows the Axxent HDR X-ray source to deliver high-dose rate, low energy radiation treatment to the uterus, cervix, endometrium and vagina. The Axxent HDR X-ray source mimics the penetration and dose characteristics of Iridium-192. The Axxent Cervical applicator is provided non-sterile and can be reused. The user must sterilize the device using steam sterilization before each use. An Applicator Clamp is a required accessory to stabilize the Cervical Applicator during radiation treatment.
More Information

No
The summary describes a physical applicator used in brachytherapy and does not mention any software or algorithms that would incorporate AI/ML.

Yes.
The device is used to deliver high dose rate brachytherapy for intracavitary treatment of cancer, which is a therapeutic intervention.

No

The device is a component of a brachytherapy system used to deliver radiation treatment, which is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic one.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical applicator, a component of a larger hardware system, and requires sterilization and accessories. It is not software-only.

Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is to deliver high dose rate brachytherapy for the treatment of cancer in specific anatomical sites (uterus, cervix, endometrium, and vagina). This is a therapeutic application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The device is a component of a brachytherapy system that delivers radiation for treatment. It is not used to examine specimens from the human body to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing biological samples, detecting analytes, or providing diagnostic information.

IVD devices are used to perform tests on samples taken from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to help diagnose diseases, monitor health, or determine compatibility. This device's function is to deliver radiation to the body for treatment.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)

A study report was included in this submission which evaluated the Axxent Cervical Applicator for MRI compatibility in 1.5 T and 3 T clinical scanners. Test samples were provided in their final manufactured condition and were evaluated for the following:

  1. Magnetically induced displacement force (ASTM F2052)
  2. Magnetically induced torque (ASTM F2213 as a guide)
  3. MR image artifact (ASTM F2119)
  4. Radiofrequency induced heating (ASTM F2182)

The results of the testing indicated that, in accordance with the guidance of relevant ASTM standards, Xoft's Cervical Applicator should be labeled MR Conditional.

Device Description

The Axxent Cervical Applicator is a component of the Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System (cleared under K122951) which utilizes a proprietary miniaturized X-ray source and does not require radioactive isotopes. The applicator allows the Axxent HDR X-ray source to deliver high-dose rate, low energy radiation treatment to the uterus, cervix, endometrium and vagina. The Axxent HDR X-ray source mimics the penetration and dose characteristics of Iridium-192.

The Axxent Cervical applicator is provided non-sterile and can be reused. The user must sterilize the device using steam sterilization before each use. An Applicator Clamp is a required accessory to stabilize the Cervical Applicator during radiation treatment.

Intended Use / "Indications for Use"

The indications for use have not changed since its clearance under K123442. The Axxent Cervical Applicator is indicated for use with the Axxent Electronic Brachytherapy System to deliver high dose rate brachytherapy for intracavitary treatment of cancer of the uterus, cervix, endometrium and vagina.

Summary of Technological Characteristics

The technological characteristics of the Axxent Cervical Applicator have not changed since its clearance under K123442. In this pre-market clearance submission, iCAD Inc. is seeking clearance for adding MRI compatibility and MR Conditional labeling to the Instructions for Use. The Axxent Cervical Applicator is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Mick Radio-Nuclear Instruments, Inc. Modified Henschke HDR Cervix Applicator, in terms of MR compatibility.

General Safety and Effectiveness Concerns

The device labeling contains instructions for use and any necessary cautions and warnings to provide for safe and effective use of this device. Risk management is ensured via a risk analysis which is used to identify potential hazards. Any potential hazards are controlled through development, verification and validation testing.

Assessment of Non-Clinical Performance Data

A study report was included in this submission which evaluated the Axxent Cervical Applicator for MRI compatibility in 1.5 T and 3 T clinical scanners. Test samples were provided in their final manufactured condition and were evaluated for the following:

    1. Magnetically induced displacement force (ASTM F2052)
    1. Magnetically induced torque (ASTM F2213 as a guide)
    1. MR image artifact (ASTM F2119)
    1. Radiofrequency induced heating (ASTM F2182)

The results of the testing indicated that, in accordance with the guidance of relevant ASTM standards, Xoft's Cervical Applicator should be labeled MR Conditional.

Conclusion

This traditional 510(k) for the Axxent® Cervical Applicator contains adequate information and data to determine substantial equivalence to the predicate device.
