Intended Use

Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit is intended for use in assisted reproduction technologies for cryopreservation of blastocysts.
Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit is intended for use in assisted reproduction technologies for thawing of cryopreserved blastocysts.

Device Description

The Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation and Thawing Kits are intended for cryopreservation and thawing of human blastocysts. The Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation and Thawing Kits provide users with the ability to cryopreserve supernumerary embryos created during the in vitro fertilization procedure and then to thaw them for use at a future point in time.

The Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit consists of three solutions containing increasing concentrations of cryoprotectant (both glycerol and sucrose are used). These buffers were designed to be used sequentially in order to remove water from embryos prior to cryopreservation. The removal of water prevents ice crystal formation inside the embryo thereby limiting damage and improving viability. It contains 12 mg/mL Human Serum Albumin (HSA) and 0.01mg/mL Gentamicin. Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit is designed for use with Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit.

The Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit consists of four solutions with decreasing concentrations of cryoprotectants (sucrose) which are used sequentially throughout the thawing process. It contains 12 mg/mL Human Serum Albumin (HSA) and 0.01mg/mL Gentamicin. It is designed for use with Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit.

Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation and Thawing Kits are provided in glass vials with Fluorotec® coated rubber stoppers held in place with a tamper evident seal. Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit is packaged in a carton box containing 3 x 20mL solutions per kit. The Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit is packaged in a carton box containing 4 x 20mL solutions per kit.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a Special 510(k) submission for the Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit and Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit (K152717). This submission is for reproductive media, not an AI/ML medical device. Therefore, many of the requested categories pertaining to AI/ML device studies (e.g., sample size for test set, data provenance, ground truth experts, adjudication methods, MRMC studies, standalone performance) are not applicable to this document.

However, I can extract information related to the device's performance, stability, and comparison to its predicate.

Here's the information that can be extracted:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

Acceptance CriteriaPredicate Device (K030441) SpecificationProposed Device (K152717) SpecificationPerformance (K152717)
pH7.3 - 7.57.3 - 7.5The product specifications are the same as the predicate.
Osmolality285 - 295 mOsm/kg285 - 295 mOsm/kgThe product specifications are the same as the predicate.
Endotoxin< 0.40 EU/mL< 0.40 EU/mLThe product specifications are the same as the predicate.
Mouse Embryo Assay (MEA)1-cell MEA (96hrs) with ≥75% of control that develop to blastocyst2-cell MEA (72hrs) with ≥80% of control that develop to blastocystPass (validated by stability studies)
SterilityNot explicitly stated but implied as part of "product specifications" and "aseptic filtration"Not explicitly stated but implied as part of "product specifications" and "aseptic filtration"The product specifications are the same as the predicate.
Shelf-life8 weeks at 2-8°C20 weeks at 2-8°C20 weeks at 2-8°C (validated by stability studies)
Proline concentrationNot specified (tested during stability)Not specified (tested during stability)Tested during stability studies.
Ammonia concentrationNot specified (tested during stability)Not specified (tested during stability)Tested during stability studies.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

This information is not provided in the document. The stability studies and MEA tests would have involved specific sample sizes, but these are not disclosed.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This is not applicable as the device is reproductive media, not an AI/ML diagnostic tool requiring expert ground truth in the context of image interpretation or similar.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

Not applicable.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

Not applicable.

6. If a standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done

Not applicable.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert concensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

For the MEA, the "ground truth" is the observation of embryo development to blastocyst stage, compared to a control group. For the chemical and physical properties (pH, osmolality, endotoxin, sterility), the ground truth is established by standard laboratory testing and measurements.

8. The sample size for the training set

Not applicable; this is not an AI/ML device with a 'training set'.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

Not applicable.

  • Similar chemical formulation
  • . Similar performance specifications:
    • pH 7.3 7.5 -
    • -Osmolality 285 - 295 mOsm/kg
    • Endotoxin < 0.40 EU/mL —
    • -A Mouse Embryo Assay (MEA) is used to screen the product for embryo toxicity.
  • Same method of manufacturing process aseptic filtration. ●
  • Same packaging borosilicate type 1 vials with FluroTec coated stopper and tamper . evident seals.

{6}------------------------------------------------

The modification that was made to the predicate device was a change in shelf-life from 8 weeks at 2-8°C (for predicate device) to 20 weeks at 2-8°C. In addition, minor changes were made to the formulation and specifications.

The technological characteristics of Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit & Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit are comparable to the predicate device.

PERFORMANCE DATA:

The product specifications for the Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit & Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit and the predicate device are the same regarding sterility, pH, osmolality and endotoxin.

The MEA is used for both the predicate and the proposed device but the test assay and specification has changed from 1-cell MEA (96hrs) with ≥75% of control that develop to blastocyst (predicate) to 2-cell MEA (72hrs) with ≥80% of control that develop to blastocyst.

Stability & Shelf Life

The shelf-life of Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit & Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit has been validated in stability studies to 20 weeks at 2 - 8°C. Stability tests included MEA, endotoxin, osmolality, pH, sterility and the concentrations of the amino acid proline and the HSA degradation by-product ammonia.

CONCLUSION:

The results of the testing provide reasonable assurance that the Sydney IVF Blastocyst Cryopreservation Kit & Sydney IVF Blastocyst Thawing Kit is as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.

(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
