Intended Use
The Eclipse Treatment Planning System (Eclipse TPS) is used to plan radiotherapy treatments with malignant or benign diseases. Eclipse TPS is used to plan external beam irradiation with photon, electron and proton beams, as well as for internal irradiation (brachytherapy) treatments. In addition, the Eclipse Proton Eye algorithm is specifically indicated for planning proton treatment of neoplasms of the eye.
Device Description
The Varian Eclipse™ Treatment Planning System (Eclipse TPS) provides software tools for planning the treatment of malignant or benign diseases with radiation. Eclipse TPS is a computer-based software device used by trained medical professionals to design and simulate radiation therapy treatments. Eclipse TPS is capable of planning treatments for external beam irradiation with photon, electron, and proton beams, as well as for internal irradiation (brachytherapy) treatments.
More Information

No
The document explicitly states "Mentions AI, DNN, or ML: Not Found" and the description focuses on traditional software tools for treatment planning.

No.
The Eclipse Treatment Planning System is a software device used to plan radiotherapy treatments, not to deliver them. It provides tools for designing and simulating treatments for medical professionals.

No

The device is used for planning radiotherapy treatments, not for diagnosing diseases or conditions.

Yes

The device description explicitly states that Eclipse TPS is a "computer-based software device" and the entire summary focuses on software functionalities for treatment planning. There is no mention of accompanying hardware components being part of the device itself.

Based on the provided information, the Eclipse Treatment Planning System (Eclipse TPS) is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.

Here's why:

  • IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
  • Eclipse TPS Function: The description clearly states that Eclipse TPS is used for planning radiotherapy treatments. It takes imaging data (CT, MR, PET) and helps medical professionals design and simulate radiation therapy. It does not analyze biological specimens.
  • Intended Use: The intended use is to "plan radiotherapy treatments," not to diagnose or monitor a disease through the analysis of biological samples.

Therefore, the Eclipse TPS falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment planning, not an IVD.

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

Verification and Validation were performed for all the new features and regression testing was performed against the existing features of Eclipse. System requirements created or affected by the changes can be traced to the test outcomes.
The outcome was that the product conformed to the defined user needs and intended uses and that there were no DRs (discrepancy reports) remaining which had a priority of Safety Intolerable or Customer Intolerable. Varian therefore considers Eclipse 15.5 to be safe and to perform at least as well as the predicate device.

§ 892.5050 Medical charged-particle radiation therapy system.

(a)
Identification. A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.(b)
Classification. Class II. When intended for use as a quality control system, the film dosimetry system (film scanning system) included as an accessory to the device described in paragraph (a) of this section, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

Dear Mr. Coronado:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

*) A compatible feature has not been released and using the feature is blocked either by not including it in the distribution media for the indicated version(s) or by licensing.

**) Smart Segmentation - Knowledge Based Contouring (SS KBC) v2.2 was cleared under K141248. The corresponding features above were cleared previously as a part of that submission.

Non-clinical Testing

Verification and Validation were performed for all the new features and regression testing was performed against the existing features of Eclipse. System requirements created or affected by the changes can be traced to the test outcomes.

Conclusion of Non-Clinical testing

The outcome was that the product conformed to the defined user needs and intended uses and that there were no DRs (discrepancy reports) remaining which had a priority of Safety Intolerable or Customer Intolerable. Varian therefore considers Eclipse 15.5 to be safe and to perform at least as well as the predicate device.

Argument for Substantial Equivalence to the Predicate Device

A subset of features of the current device is different to the predicate. These changes are all considered by Varian to be enhancements of the predicate. The Indications for Use and the Intended Use remain unchanged. There are no changes in the principle of operation of the software. The Verification and Validation demonstrates that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate. Varian therefore believes that Eclipse Treatment Planning System is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
