The device description clearly states it is a physical product (personal lubricant) composed of Dimethicone and packaged in a bottle with a pump, indicating it is a hardware device, not software.

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

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use is for "penile, vaginal and/or anal application, intended to moisturize and lubricate, to enhance the ease and comfort of intimate sexual activity and supplement the body's natural lubrication." This describes a topical application for physical comfort and enhancement of sexual activity.
  • Device Description: The device is described as a "personal lubricant" composed of Dimethicone.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies focus on biocompatibility, condom compatibility, and shelf-life. These are relevant to a personal lubricant applied to the body, not to a diagnostic test performed on a sample taken from the body.
  • Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of analyzing samples (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) or providing diagnostic information about a disease or condition.

IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease. This device does not fit that description.

The subject and predicate device have similar indications for use. However, the indication for the subject device has been expanded from the current penile and vaginal use to also include anal use. This change does not represent a new intended use as the intended use of this device is the same as the predicate device, i.e., lubrication of an orifice during intimate sexual activity.

Additionally, FDA has cleared otherpersonal lubricants with comparable indications including penile, vaginal, and anal use.

Technological Characteristics:

The technological characteristics of the K-Y@ Silicone personal lubricant are identical to the predicate device as both devices are made from the same material, have the same packaging, and have the same specifications.

Summary of Performance Data

This submission relies on the performance testing provided in the predicate submission for the Durex Silicone personal lubricant (K143532) as the subject device is identical to the predicate device. Data from the predicate submission used to support the subject device is summarized below:

  • Cytotoxicity (ISO 10993-5:2009)
  • Sensitization (ISO 10993-10:2010) ●
  • . Irritation (ISO 10993-10:2010)
  • Systemic Toxicity (ISO 10993-11:2011 ●

The results of this testing demonstrated that the subject lubricant is biocompatible.

Condom Compatibility: Testing was done in accordance with ASTM method D7661-10 on condoms made of natural rubber latex. polyisoprene, and polyurethane. The results of testing showed compatibility of the lubricant with natural rubber latex, polyisoprene, and polyurethane condoms.

Shelf-Life: K-Y@ Silicone is a non-sterile personal lubricant with a 24 month shelf-life based on the results of accelerated a and real-time stability studies. Testing showed that devices were able to meet the device specifications shown in the Device Description section of this summary over the 24-month shelflife period.

Conclusion

As K-Y® Silicone is identical to the predicate Durex Silicone personal lubricant, the performance data described above demonstrates that the K-Y® Silicone personal lubricant is as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.
