Intended Use
FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels - Bone Graft Substitute is indicated only for bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels is indicated to be gently packed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., posterolateral spine, extremities and pelvis). These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels must be used with autogenous bone marrow aspirate and autograft in the posterolateral spine. FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels is not indicated for use in load-bearing applications; therefore, standard internal or external stabilization techniques must be followed to obtain rigid stabilization.
Device Description
The FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels provide an osteoconductive, resorbable, biocompatible bone graft substitute that is to be gently packed into defect sites. The FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels are made from crystalline 45S5 bioactive glass. Each granule of BG Morsels is created from a matrix of bioactive glass fibers and microspheres. Bioactive glass is defined as a group of glasses that has a compositional range that allows the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) as a surface layer when exposed to an aqueous phosphate-containing solution such as simulated body fluid. The HA layer that forms in an aqueous phosphate-containing solution plays a significant role in forming a strong bond with natural bone. The granules provide an ultra-porous scaffold for desired biological response and improved handling characteristics, while optimizing radiopacity and resorption. BG Morsels are generally spherical in appearance and provided in granular form. The matrix is flash sintered to form a porous shell at its surface, which creates the generally spherical structure of the granules, while maintaining a level of porosity within each granule.

No

Explanation: The device is described as a bone graft substitute used to fill bone voids or gaps. Its function is to resorb and be replaced by bone during healing, acting as a structural filler rather than a tool for diagnosis.

No

The device description clearly states it is a physical bone graft substitute made from crystalline 45S5 bioactive glass fibers and microspheres. It is a physical material intended to be packed into bony voids.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is a bone graft substitute for filling bony voids and gaps in the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic and structural application, not a diagnostic one.
  • Device Description: The description details the material composition and physical properties of the bone graft substitute. It does not mention any components or functions related to analyzing biological samples (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide diagnostic information.
  • Lack of Diagnostic Elements: There is no mention of analyzing samples, detecting biomarkers, or providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening of diseases or conditions.

IVD devices are specifically designed to be used in vitro (outside the body) to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic purposes. This device is implanted in vivo (inside the body) to aid in bone healing.

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

Physical property evaluations, functional animal studies, and biocompatibility tests were performed for the FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels device. Specifically, simulated distribution, whole package integrity and seal strength were tested on the defined packaging configuration. Accelerated and real time aging tests were also performed with passing results. The biocompatibility of the BG Morsels is demonstrated by ISO 10993 testing and the long history of clinical use of the bioactive glass material for the same intended use. In addition, the BG Morsels is composed of the same bioactive glass material with the same chemical composition and the same type and duration of patient contact as the NovaBone predicates. The physical functions and bioactivity of the BG Morsels were also evaluated. and results met the testing requirements. The device is considered bioactive based on in vitro studies that show apatite layer formation on the surface of the implant following immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). These results have not been correlated to clinical performance.

Animal testing demonstrated evidence of new bone formation in critical size defects, consistent with FDA's recommendations for Class II synthetic bone graft substitutes. Two separate animal studies were conducted. The Prosidyan FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels product was evaluated and compared to a positive control, the predicate device (NovaBone Putty), and to a negative sham control (untreated defect) in an ovine model. The animal study evaluated the device performance in critical sized cancellous bone defects in the lateral distal femurs from 58 skeletally mature sheep, including radiographic, histological, histomorphometric, and biomechanical data. Testing of the BG Morsels in the ovine model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. In addition, the study was conducted for a duration of 24 weeks with several interim evaluation points (i.e., 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks), including a minimum of 3 animals per time point per treatment group. The results of the study demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels device performs as safely and as effectively as the predicate device, and any differences between the results of the device groups do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness concerns.

In addition, the FIBERGRAFT BG Morsels product was also evaluated in a rabbit study to further support device performance for its indications for use. The FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels product was compared to its predicate device as well as autograft (positive) control. The animal study evaluated device performance in a rabbit posterolateral spine fusion model with 41 skeletally mature rabbits, including radiographic, histological, histomorphometric, and biomechanical data. Testing of the FIBERGRAFT ™ BG Morsels in the rabbit model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. The results of the study through 26 week follow up demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels device performs substantially equivalently to the predicate device, and any minor technological differences between the device groups do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness concerns. The device was compared to autograft in animal performance testing in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate. ISO 10993-6 testing was also conducted, and results supported substantial equivalence of the FIBERGRAFT BG Morsels compared to its predicate. Fluid absorbability testing further confirmed the use of BMA and the of the product.

Technological Characteristics

The technological characteristics of the FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels have not changed since the prior clearances of the product. The FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels provide an osteoconductive, resorbable, biocompatible bone graft substitute that is to be gently packed into defect sites. The FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels are made from crystalline 45S5 bioactive glass. Each granule of BG Morsels is created from a matrix of bioactive glass fibers and microspheres. Bioactive glass is defined as a group of glasses that has a compositional range that allows the formation of hydroxyapatite (HA) as a surface layer when exposed to an aqueous phosphate-containing solution such as simulated body fluid. The HA layer that forms in an aqueous phosphate-containing solution plays a significant role in forming a strong bond with natural bone. The granules provide an ultra-porous scaffold for desired biological response and improved handling characteristics, while optimizing radiopacity and resorption. BG Morsels are generally spherical in appearance and provided in granular form. The matrix is flash sintered to form a porous shell at its surface, which creates the generally spherical structure of the granules, while maintaining a level of porosity within each granule.

Performance Data

Physical property evaluations, functional animal studies, and biocompatibility tests were performed for the FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels device. Specifically, simulated distribution, whole package integrity and seal strength were tested on the defined packaging configuration. Accelerated and real time aging tests were also performed with passing results. The biocompatibility of the BG Morsels is demonstrated by ISO 10993 testing and the long history of clinical use of the bioactive glass material for the same intended use. In addition, the BG Morsels is composed of the same bioactive glass material with the same chemical composition and the same type and duration of patient contact as the NovaBone predicates. The physical functions and bioactivity of the BG Morsels were also evaluated. and results met the testing requirements. The device is considered bioactive based on in vitro studies that show apatite layer formation on the surface of the implant following immersion in simulated body fluid (SBF). These results have not been correlated to clinical performance.

Animal testing demonstrated evidence of new bone formation in critical size defects, consistent with FDA's recommendations for Class II synthetic bone graft substitutes. Two separate animal studies were conducted. The Prosidyan FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels product was evaluated and compared to a positive control, the predicate device (NovaBone Putty), and to a negative sham control (untreated defect) in an ovine model. The animal study evaluated the device performance in critical sized cancellous bone defects in the lateral distal femurs from 58 skeletally mature sheep, including radiographic, histological, histomorphometric, and biomechanical data. Testing of the BG Morsels in the ovine model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. In addition, the study was conducted for a duration of 24 weeks with several interim evaluation points (i.e., 4, 8, 12, and 24 weeks), including a minimum of 3 animals per time point per treatment group. The results of the study demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT™BG Morsels device performs as safely and as effectively as the predicate device, and any differences between the results of the device groups do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness concerns.

In addition, the FIBERGRAFT BG Morsels product was also evaluated in a rabbit study to further support device performance for its indications for use. The FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels product was compared to its predicate device as well as autograft (positive) control. The animal study evaluated device performance in a rabbit posterolateral spine fusion

model with 41 skeletally mature rabbits, including radiographic, histological, histomorphometric, and biomechanical data. Testing of the FIBERGRAFT ™ BG Morsels in the rabbit model is representative of the indications for use and range of anatomical sites proposed for the subject device. The results of the study through 26 week follow up demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels device performs substantially equivalently to the predicate device, and any minor technological differences between the device groups do not raise new types of safety or effectiveness concerns. The device was compared to autograft in animal performance testing in order to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate. ISO 10993-6 testing was also conducted, and results supported substantial equivalence of the FIBERGRAFT BG Morsels compared to its predicate. Fluid absorbability testing further confirmed the use of BMA and the of the product.

Therefore, performance testing demonstrated that the FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels device functions as intended and meets the requirements of class II bone void fillers as compared to the predicate devices.

Substantial Equivalence

As demonstrated in performance testing, the FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels product is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices. FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels has the same intended use and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as its predicate devices. Thus, FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels is substantially equivalent.

Conclusions

FIBERGRAFT™ BG Morsels is an osteoconductive, resorbable, biocompatible bone graft substitute composed of bioactive glass. The product is substantially equivalent to its predicate devices for its intended use as a synthetic bone void filler and bone graft extender. Performance testing, including bench and in vivo data, demonstrated that the device functions as intended without raising new safety or effectiveness questions.
