The NuVasive Modulus XLIF Interbody System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The System is designed for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. When used with or without the Modulus XLIF internal fixation, the system is intended for use with supplemental spinal fixation systems cleared by the FDA for use in the thoracolumbar spine. The devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment.
The NuVasive Modulus XLIF Interbody System is intended for use in interbody fusions in the thoracolumbar spine from T1 to T12 and at the thoracolumbar junction (T12-L1), and for use in the lumbar spine from L1 to S1, for the treatment of symptomatic disc degeneration (DDD) or degenerative spondylolisthesis at one or two adjacent levels, including thoracy disc herniation (with myelopathy and/or radiculopathy with or without axial pain). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The NuVasive Modulus XLIF Interbody System can be used as an adjunct to fusion in patients diagnosed with multilevel degenerative scoliosis.
The subject NuVasive Modulus XLIF Interbody System are interbody implants manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) powder conforming to ASTM F3001. The solid and porous structures are simultaneously built using a powder bed fusion method. The hollow core, or graft aperture, allows for packing of graft to aid in the promotion of a solid fusion. Similarly, the macroporous internal lattice structure provides additional space for graft packing. The microporous, textured surface on the superior and inferior ends of the device serves to grip the adjacent vertebrae to resist migration of the device. An optional internal fixation plate with bone screw manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6AI-4V ELI) conforming ASTM F136 or ISO 5832-3 and MP35N conforming to ASTM F562 may be affixed to the adjacent vertebral body to provide additional migration resistance and stability. When used with or without the internal fixation plate and bone screw, the device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that are cleared by the FDA for use in the thoracolumbar spine.
The implants are available in a variety sizes and lordotic angles to suit the individual pathology and anatomical conditions of the patient. The device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that are cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine.
The purpose of this submission is to provide an optional internal fixation plate with bone screw.
This document is about the NuVasive Modulus XLIF Interbody System, an intervertebral body fusion device.
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
The submission does not explicitly list "acceptance criteria" for the device, but rather refers to demonstrating substantial equivalence to predicate devices. The performance data presented focuses on mechanical testing to ensure the device meets the same standards as previously cleared devices.
| Acceptance Criteria (Implied) | Reported Device Performance |
|---|---|
| Mechanical integrity under dynamic axial compression (per ASTM F2077) | Meets the same criteria as predicate devices. (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary but are implied to be satisfactory based on the conclusion of substantial equivalence). |
| Mechanical integrity under dynamic torsion (per ASTM F2077) | Meets the same criteria as predicate devices. (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary but are implied to be satisfactory based on the conclusion of substantial equivalence). |
| Resistance to screw push-out | Meets the same criteria as predicate devices. (Specific numerical results are not provided in this summary but are implied to be satisfactory based on the conclusion of substantial equivalence). |
| Material composition and manufacturing (Titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) | Conforms to ASTM F3001 and ASTM F136 or ISO 5832-3; MP35N conforming to ASTM F562. Uses powder bed fusion. |
| Functionality (facilitate fusion, provide stability) | Designed to aid in solid fusion with graft packing in a hollow core/macroporous lattice. Microporous textured surface for grip. Optional internal fixation plate for additional migration resistance and stability. Intended for use with supplemental spinal fixation systems cleared by the FDA for use in the thoracolumbar spine. Substantially equivalent to predicate devices with proven functionality. |
| Intended Use (intervertebral body fusion, specific spinal segments, DDD) | The device's indications for use are the same as the predicate devices, covering intervertebral body fusion in skeletally mature patients, specific spinal segments (T1-S1), and treatment of symptomatic disc degeneration (DDD) or degenerative spondylolisthesis. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance
This submission describes non-clinical testing and analysis on the device itself, not a clinical study involving human or animal subjects. Therefore, the concepts of "test set" and "data provenance" in the context of clinical data do not directly apply. The sample size for the mechanical tests would be the number of physical device units tested, but this detail is not provided in the summary.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts
Not applicable. This device underwent mechanical testing, not a study requiring expert readers to establish ground truth for a test set.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
Not applicable, as no expert adjudication of a clinical test set was performed.
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. This device is an implantable medical device, not an AI or imaging diagnostic tool, so an MRMC study is not relevant.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done
Not applicable, as this device does not involve an algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used
The "ground truth" for this device's performance is based on established engineering standards and comparisons to predicate devices. Specifically, the device's mechanical properties (compression, torsion, screw push-out) were evaluated against the performance of predicate devices, which are already deemed safe and effective based on their established regulatory history and testing.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
Not applicable. This device does not involve machine learning algorithms that require a training set.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
Not applicable, as there is no training set for this 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.
