Intended Use
The 3DMetal Tibial Cones are indicated for use with the GMK Hinge knee systems, as well as the GMK tibial extension stems and offsets. Specific indications are as follows: - · Severely painful and/or disabled joint as a result of arthritis, theumatoid arthritis or polyarthritis. - · Post traumatic loss of joint configuration. - · Considerable loss of function of the knee joint. - · High-grade joint destruction requiring additional stabilization and reconstruction of bone defects. - · Primary implantation failure. - · Former revision arthroplasty.
Device Description
The 3DMetal Tibial Cones are implantable devices to be used as fillers in cases of severe bone deficiency. The subject devices are to be cemented to the GMK Revision and GMK Hinge systems' tibial trays. The subject devices have a full-density layer that prevents cement occluding the pores of the external layer. The purpose of this submission is to gain clearance for the tibial cones available in centred and eccentric versions. The tibial cones are available in sizes XS, S, M, and L with heights of 20 mm and 25 mm. The subject devices are intended to be used with the cleared indications for use and the tibial trays of Medacta's GMK Revision (K102437) and GMK Hinge (K130299) systems. The 3DMetal Tibial Cones are manufactured with titanium alloy substrate, which is identical to predicate devices Regenerex Porous Titanium Sleeve Augments (K072336). However the subject devices' material is processed using electron beam melting (EBM) similar to the material of referenced device Delta TT Acetabular System (K141395).
More Information

No
The document describes a passive implantable device (tibial cones) made of titanium alloy, with no mention of software, algorithms, or any computational processing that would involve AI or ML. The performance studies are focused on material properties and mechanical testing.

Yes.
The device is used to treat medical conditions such as arthritis, post-traumatic loss of joint configuration, and high-grade joint destruction, with the goal of improving the function and stability of the knee joint.

No

The device is an implantable surgical component (tibial cones) designed to fill bone deficiencies in knee replacement surgeries, not to diagnose a condition.

No

The device description clearly states that the 3DMetal Tibial Cones are "implantable devices" made of "titanium alloy substrate," indicating they are physical hardware components, not software.

Based on the provided information, the 3DMetal Tibial Cones are not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic) device.

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is an implantable device used in knee replacement surgery to address bone deficiencies. This is a surgical procedure performed on a patient, not a test performed on a sample taken from a patient.
  • Device Description: The description details the physical characteristics and function of the implantable device.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for diagnostic, monitoring, or compatibility purposes.

Therefore, the 3DMetal Tibial Cones are a medical device intended for surgical implantation, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

§ 888.3560 Knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis.

(a)
Identification. A knee joint patellofemorotibial polymer/metal/polymer semi-constrained cemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a knee joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum, and a tibial component or components and a retropatellar resurfacing component made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. This generic type of device is limited to those prostheses intended for use with bone cement (§ 888.3027).(b)
Classification. Class II.

The 3DMetal Tibial Cones are technologically different from the predicate devices as follows:

  • Heights available
  • o Manufacturing Process

Biocompatibility testing conducted on the predicate and reference devices for the same material, supports the biological safety of the 3DMetal Tibial Cones. Additional biocompatibility testing was deemed unnecessary because the materials and manufacturing process are identical to the predicate devices described below and meet ISO 5832-3:1996 Implants For Surgery – Metallic Materials - Part 3: Wrought Titanium 6-Aluminum 4-Vanadium Alloy and ASTM F2924-12a Standard Specification For Additive Manufacturing Titanium-6 Vanadium With Powder Bed Fusion.

Discussion

As seen above, the differences between the subject and predicate devices are that the subject devices have different heights than the predicate devices. Although the subject devices and predicate devices are made of titanium alloy, the manufacturing process method is different because the subject devices use electron beam melting to process the titanium. This technological difference does not raise new questions of safety or effectiveness and a comparison evaluation shows there are no new risks associated with the subject devices design.

VII. Performance Data

Based on the risk analysis and pre-submission submitted to FDA to review testing protocols, testing was conducted to written protocols with acceptance criteria that were based on standards and FDA guidance documents. The following mechanical tests are being provided in support of a substantial equivalence determination:

Non-Clinical Studies

  • . Dynamic Fatigue Test: ASTM F1800-12 Standard Test Method For Cyclic Fatigue Testing Of Metal Tibial Tray Components Of Total Knee Joint Replacements
  • Characterization Test
    • o Shear Testing: ASTM F1044-05 (Reapproved 2011) Standard Test Method For Shear Testing of Calcium Phosphate Coatings And Metallic Coatings
    • Shear Fatigue Testing: ASTM F1160-14 Standard Test Method For Shear and о Bending Fatigue Testing of Calcium Phosphate And Metallic Medical And Composite Calcium Phosphate/Metallic Coatings
    • Tensile Testing: ASTM F1147-05 (Reapproved 2011) Standard Test Method For o Tension Testing of Calcium Phosphate And Metal Coatings
    • Stereological Evaluation: ASTM F1854-09 Standard Test Method For O Stereological Evaluation Of Porous Coatings On Medical Implants
  • Pyrogenicity ●
    • o Medacta uses both the Bacterial Endotoxin Test (LAL test) according to European Pharmacopoeia §2.6.14 (which is equivalent to USP chapter ) and the Pyrogen Test according to USP chapter for pyrogenicity determination.
    • Medacta has no intentions of labeling the subject devices as non-pyrogenic or o pyrogen free.

Clinical Studies

  • . No clinical studies were conducted.

VIII. Conclusion

The information provided above supports that the 3DMetal Tibial Cones are as safe and effective as the predicate devices. The subject devices are manufactured using the Electron Beam Melting (EBM) process in with titanium alloy, as compared to the predicate devices, does not raise any new questions of safety and effectiveness. Therefore, it is concluded that the 3DMetal Tibial Cones are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices.
