Yes.
The device is indicated for the delivery of stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions anywhere in the body, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The device description clearly states "Halcyon is a single energy medical linac designed to deliver Image Guided Radiation Therapy and Radiosurgery," indicating its function is for treatment delivery, not diagnosis. The "Intended Use" section also confirms its purpose is "for the delivery of stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy."
No
The device description explicitly states it consists of an accelerator, patient support, and control console, which are hardware components. The performance studies also mention hardware verification and validation testing.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for delivering radiation therapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions. This is a therapeutic intervention performed directly on the patient.
- Device Description: The device is a medical linear accelerator (linac) designed to deliver radiation. This is a piece of equipment used for treatment, not for analyzing samples from the body.
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostics are devices used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. This device does not perform such analysis.
The mentions of "Image Guided Radiation Therapy" and "kV Imaging" refer to imaging techniques used to guide the delivery of the radiation treatment, not for diagnostic testing of patient samples.

Hardware and software verification and validation testing was conducted according to the FDA Quality System Regulation (21 CFR §820), ISO 13485 quality Management System standard, ISO 14971 Risk Management Standard and the other FDA recognized consensus standards listed below. Test results showed conformance to applicable requirements specifications and assured hazard safeguards functioned properly.
Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "major" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could directly result in serious injury or death to the patient or operator.
Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing was conducted on this medical device. The system complies with the IEC 60601-1 standards for safety and the IEC 60601-1-2 standard for EMC.
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 Halcyon to be safe and effective and to perform at least as well as the predicate device.

Non-clinical Testing
Hardware and software verification and validation testing was conducted according to the FDA Quality System Regulation (21 CFR §820), ISO 13485 quality Management System standard, ISO 14971 Risk Management Standard and the other FDA recognized consensus standards listed below. Test results showed conformance to applicable requirements specifications and assured hazard safeguards functioned properly.
Software verification and validation testing were conducted and documentation was provided as recommended by FDA's Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff, "Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices." The software for this device was considered as a "major" level of concern, since a failure or latent flaw in the software could directly result in serious injury or death to the patient or operator.
Electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) testing was conducted on this medical device. The system complies with the IEC 60601-1 standards for safety and the IEC 60601-1-2 standard for EMC.
Standards Conformance
Halcyon conforms to the following FDA recognised standards. For full details refer to document: "Standards Introduction" in Section 9 of this submission.
IEC 60601-1-3 Edition 2.1 2013-04 AAMI/ ANSI ES60601-1: 2005 IEC 60601-1-2: 2007 & 2014 IEC 60601-1-6: 2013 IEC 60601-2-1: 2014 IEC 60825-1 Ed. 2.0 2007 IEC 60976 Ed. 2.0 2007 IEC 61217: 2011 IEC 62274: 2005 IEC 62304: 2006 AAMI / ANSI / IEC 62366:2007/(R)2013 ISO 10993-1:2009 IEC 60601-2-68:2014 ISO 15223-1:2012 EN ISO 14971:2012
Halcyon also complies with the following non FDA recognised standards. IEC 60601-2-68:2014 EN ISO 13485:2012
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 Halcyon to be safe and effective and to perform at least as well as the predicate device.
Argument for Substantial Equivalence to the Predicate Device
A subset of technological characteristics and features of the current device is different to the predicate. These differences are all considered by Varian to be enhancements of the Intended Use and indications for use are unchanged. There are no changes in the principle of operation of the device. The Verification and Validation demonstrates that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate. Varian therefore believes that Halcyon is substantially equivalent to the predicate.
