Intended Use
When used as a Lumbar Interbody Fusion device, NeoFuse is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with DDD at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Lumbar DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should have received at least six (6) months of prior non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device. The devices must be used with supplemental fixation and must be used with autograft / autologous bone graft to facilitate fusion for each spinal region.
Device Description
The NeoFuse™ HA Enhanced PLIF/TLIF devices are intervertebral body fusion devices made from PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced (HA PEEK). Each device may include an optional Titanium Insert containing through holes to increase graft volume. The implants are available in various heights to accommodate patients' anatomy. The implants are provided non-sterile with surgical instruments to facilitate implantation. Radiographic markers made of tantalum (ASTM F-560), or titanium alloy (ASTM F-136) are included in each implant to allow radiographic visualization.

No
The summary describes a physical implant device and its mechanical properties, with no mention of software, algorithms, or AI/ML capabilities.

Yes
Explanation: The device is indicated for use in treating patients with DDD and for facilitating fusion in the lumbar spine, which are therapeutic interventions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an "intervertebral body fusion device" and its intended use is to facilitate fusion. It is a surgical implant, not a tool for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly states it is an intervertebral body fusion device made from PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced, with optional titanium inserts and radiographic markers. This is a physical implant, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly describes a surgical implant for spinal fusion. It is used in the body to facilitate bone growth and stabilize the spine.
  • Device Description: The device is described as an intervertebral body fusion device made of PEEK and titanium, designed to be implanted surgically.
  • Lack of In Vitro Activity: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens outside of the body (in vitro) to provide information about a patient's health status. IVDs typically involve analyzing blood, urine, tissue, or other samples.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies described are mechanical tests (compression, shear, torsion, etc.) relevant to the structural integrity and function of a surgical implant, not analytical performance metrics associated with IVDs (like sensitivity, specificity, etc.).

Therefore, the NeoFuse device is a surgical implant, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

§ 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.

Device Description

The NeoFuse™ HA Enhanced PLIF/TLIF devices are intervertebral body fusion devices made from PEEK-OPTIMA HA Enhanced (HA PEEK). Each device may include an optional Titanium Insert containing through holes to increase graft volume. The implants are available in various heights to accommodate patients' anatomy. The implants are provided non-sterile with surgical instruments to facilitate implantation. Radiographic markers made of tantalum (ASTM F-560), or titanium alloy (ASTM F-136) are included in each implant to allow radiographic visualization.

Predicate Device

The interbody fusion system is substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices. The primary predicate devices is Depuy/AcroMed Lumbar I/F Cage per P960025, with additional predicates including Meditech Spine Talos-C per K142345, SpineFrontier, Inc., Arena-C HA PEEK Cervical Interbody Fusion Device per K142026, and Cutting Edge Spine, LLC's EVOS Lumbar Interbody System per K150321.

Intended Use / Indications for Use

When used as a Lumbar Interbody Fusion device, NeoFuse is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with DDD at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. Lumbar DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). Patients should have received at least six (6) months of prior non-operative treatment prior to treatment with the device.

The devices must be used with supplemental fixation and must be used with autograft / autologous bone graft to facilitate fusion for each spinal region.

Technology Characteristics

The technological characteristics of the NeoFuse are equivalent or similar to the predicate devices, including the materials. Identical to K142345, K142026, and K150321 the hydroxyapatite filled polyetheretherketone (HA PEEK ) contains HA which is a naturally occurring mineral in bone and is widely used in the orthopedic field. Similar to K142026, the devices are supplied non-sterile for steam sterilization. NeoFuse has the same technology characteristics and intended use as the intervertebral body fusion predicate devices P960025, K142345, K142026, and K150321.

Summary of Non-clinical Testing

The interbody fusion system was tested according to ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267. Testing included static and dynamic axial compression, static and dynamic compression shear, static torsion, subsidence, and expulsion.

Test results demonstrated that the devices are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.

Conclusion

Performance bench testing and comparisons have demonstrated NeoFuse is substantially equivalent to the predicate devices in regards to Indications for Use, Dimensions, Function, Materials, Mechanical Testing, and Technology Characteristics. The NeoFuse does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness; and NeoFuse demonstrates substantial equivalence to legally marketed predicate devices.
