The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis is indicated for severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis.
The humeral component is fixated with a hollow screw and the glenoid components are intended for cemented fixation in the joint and must only be used with appropriate bone cement.
The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis is a stemless humeral joint (hemi-shoulder) prosthesis that is designed as a humeral head replacement device. It consists of a humeral head; a trunnion; and a hollow screw. The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System replaces the proximal humeral bone, including surface, using an anatomical reconstruction surgical technique. The Eclipse fixates to the humeral bone by a hollow screw that is torqued into place.
The humeral head is manufactured from Cobalt Chromium (CoCr) and is offered in 10 sizes (39-55mm) with varying offsets of 16-23mm. The trunnion is manufactured from Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) with a titanium plasma spray (TPS) Calcium Phosphate (CaP) coating and is available in 10 sizes (37-55mm). The hollow screw is manufactured from Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) and is offered in 4 sizes (30-45mm).
Here's an analysis of the provided text to fulfill your request regarding the acceptance criteria and the study that proves the device meets those criteria:
Device: Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System
1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance
| Acceptance Criteria (Primary Composite Endpoint) | Reported Device Performance (Eclipse Group) |
|---|---|
| Clinical Success: An improvement in Adjusted Constant Score from baseline to Month 24 that is ≥10 points AND a final Adjusted Constant Score ≥54. | 97.1% of Eclipse subjects experienced a clinically meaningful improvement (≥10 point increase and score value ≥54) at Month 24. |
| Radiographic Success: Absence of clinically significant humeral radiolucency, humeral migration/subsidence (relative to 3-month time point), glenoid migration/subsidence (relative to 3-month time point), device disassembly or fracture, and/or periprosthetic fracture. | Eclipse patients did not experience any radiographic failures. The majority had no glenoid radiolucencies (Grade 0) or minor radiolucencies (Grades 1, 2) at Month 24. A very small percentage had Grade 3 glenoid radiolucencies, but no Grade 4 or 5. |
| No Reoperation, Removal, or Modification of any study component up to the subject's completion of the study. | The rate of subsequent surgical intervention (reoperation) for Eclipse subjects was 3.6% through 24 months. (This criterion defines "success" as no reoperation, so a 3.6% reoperation rate contributes to the overall failure rate for the composite endpoint.) |
| No Serious Device-Related Complications up to the subject's completion of the study. | The rate of device-related events was 1.4% for Eclipse subjects. (This criterion defines "success" as no serious device-related complications, so a 1.4% complication rate contributes to the overall failure rate for the composite endpoint.) |
| Overall Composite Clinical Success Rate (Non-Inferiority to Univers II) | The success rate for the Eclipse group was 92.3%. The difference between Eclipse and Univers II (89.7%) was 2.6%. The lower-bound of the 1-sided 95% confidence interval for the group difference was -4.5%. The lower-bound of the 1-sided 98.131% confidence interval was -6.4%. Both are greater than the -10% non-inferiority margin, demonstrating non-inferiority. |
2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and the Data Provenance
- Sample Size for Pivotal Study (Test Set):
- Eclipse Group: Population Size = 143, Sample Size for Composite Success Rate = 132
- Univers II Group (Control): Population Size = 68, Sample Size for Composite Success Rate = 61
- Data Provenance: Prospective, randomized, multi-center study conducted in the United States.
3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and the Qualifications of Those Experts
The document does not specify the number or qualifications of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set. For radiographic criteria, it mentions "clinically significant," and the "radiographic protocol," but doesn't detail the review process or who performed it. For the Constant Score, it is an objective scoring system, but its application would generally be by trained medical professionals (e.g., orthopedic surgeons, physical therapists) involved in patient assessment.
4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set
The document does not explicitly state an adjudication method (e.g., 2+1, 3+1). It describes a "pivotal study" and "composite clinical success criteria" which would involve collecting various data points (clinical scores, radiographic findings, reoperations, complications) and comparing them against predefined thresholds to determine individual subject success. The determination of "clinically significant" radiolucency implies some level of expert interpretation, but the process is not detailed.
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
No, a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was not done. This study is evaluating the performance of a medical device (shoulder prosthesis) directly, not an AI algorithm assisting human readers.
6. If a Standalone (i.e. algorithm only without human-in-the loop performance) was done
No, a standalone algorithm performance study was not done. The device is a surgical implant, not an AI algorithm.
7. The Type of Ground Truth Used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc.)
The ground truth for the pivotal study's primary composite endpoint was established using a combination of objective clinical outcomes and expert interpretation of radiographic findings and events:
- Objective Outcomes Data: Adjusted Constant Score (quantitative assessment of pain, function, range of motion).
- Clinical Outcomes Data: Occurrence of reoperation, removal, or modification of components, and serious device-related complications.
- Radiographic Interpretation: Assessment of humeral radiolucency, migration/subsidence, device integrity, and periprosthetic fracture. While the document doesn't detail the "experts," these assessments are typically made by trained radiologists or orthopedic surgeons.
8. The Sample Size for the Training Set
The document describes a pivotal clinical study and a literature review. There is no mention of a training set in the context of an AI/algorithm-based device, as this device is a physical shoulder prosthesis. The "training set" concept is not applicable here.
9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set was Established
As there is no training set mentioned for this physical device, this question is not applicable.

Reference Predicate Device K173388: Exactech Equinox
Purpose of Submission
This Traditional 510(k) premarket notification is submitted to obtain clearance for the Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis.
Device Description
The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis is a stemless humeral joint (hemi-shoulder) prosthesis that is designed as a humeral head replacement device. It consists of a humeral head; a trunnion; and a hollow screw. The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System replaces the proximal humeral bone, including surface, using an
{4}------------------------------------------------
anatomical reconstruction surgical technique. The Eclipse fixates to the humeral bone by a hollow screw that is torqued into place.
The humeral head is manufactured from Cobalt Chromium (CoCr) and is offered in 10 sizes (39-55mm) with varying offsets of 16-23mm. The trunnion is manufactured from Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) with a titanium plasma spray (TPS) Calcium Phosphate (CaP) coating and is available in 10 sizes (37-55mm). The hollow screw is manufactured from Titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) and is offered in 4 sizes (30-45mm).
Indications For Use
The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis is indicated for severely painful and/or disabled joint resulting from osteoarthritis or traumatic arthritis.
The humeral component is fixated with a hollow screw and the glenoid components are intended for cemented fixation in the joint and must only be used with appropriate bone cement.
Summary of Technological Characteristics
The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System has the same intended use as the primary predicate devices. The technological characteristics (material, sizing, indications, coating, shelf-life, and sterilization) of the Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. The design differences have been demonstrated through clinical and non-clinical performance data and do not raise new issues of safety or effectiveness.
The primary difference between the Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System and the predicate Arthrex Univers II is that the Eclipse is a stemless as opposed to a stem design. However, the Arthrex Eclipse is similar to other legally marketed stemless shoulder devices, such as the Sidus Stem-Free Shoulder and the Simpliciti Shoulder System. The primary difference between the Arthrex Eclipse and the stemless predicate devices is the fixation of the humeral component. The Arthrex Eclipse achieves humeral fixation by torqueing the humeral hollow screw component into the humeral bone whereas the stemless predicate devices are fixate by press-fit designs. The table below summarizes the technological characteristics of the Arthrex Eclipse and the predicate devices.

Nonclinical Performance Data
Static and dynamic compression testing was performed to evaluate the fatigue resilience of the proposed Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis. The testing demonstrates that the fatigue strength of the proposed devices meets the same acceptance criteria as the predicate device for the desired indications.
{5}------------------------------------------------
A review of clinical literature on the Arthrex Eclipse, which reports on clinical effectiveness outcomes (i.e., Constant Score, Oxford Shoulder Score, range of motion), radiographic findings, and clinical safety outcomes.
Bacterial endotoxin per EP 2.6.14/USP <85> was conducted to demonstrate that the device meets pyrogen limit specifications.
Clinical Performance Data
Level of Evidence & Location of Study
A pivotal study was held in the United States as a prospective, randomized, multi-center study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis compared to the Univers II Shoulder Prosthesis (conventional stemmed shoulder) for the treatment of degenerative joint disease in subjects who are candidates for total shoulder replacement.
Primary Composite Endpoint
To be considered a success, the Eclipse subject must meet the following composite clinical success criteria:
- An improvement in the Adjusted Constant Score (for pain, function, and range of motion) from baseline ● (pre-op) to the Month 24 time-point that is ≥10 points and a final Adjusted Constant Score ≥54.
- . Radiographic success at the Month 24 time-point which is defined as absence of clinically significant humeral radiolucency, humeral migration/subsidence (relative to 3 month time point), glenoid migration/subsidence (relative to 3 month time point), device disassembly or fracture, and/or periprosthetic fracture, as described in the radiographic protocol.
- No reoperation, removal, or modification of any study component up to the subject's completion of the study.
- . No serious device-related complications up to the subject's completion of the study.
For the composite clinical success measurement using subjects with complete data at Month 24, the success rate was 92.3% for the Eclipse group compared with 89.7% for the Univers II group. The difference between Eclipse and Univers II was 2.6%. The lower-bound of the 1-sided 95% confidence interval for the group difference was -4.5%. The data presented in the table below demonstrate the non-inferiority of the Eclipse subjects to the Univers II control subjects in the overall primary endpoint.
| Eclipse | Univers II | Dif | 95% | 98.131% | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Population Size | Sample Size | Success Rate | Population Size | Sample Size | Success Rate | % | 1-sided LB | 1-sided LB | |
| 143 | 132 | 92.3% | 68 | 61 | 89.7% | 2.6% | -4.5% | -6.4% |
Using the O'Brien-Fleming method to correct for interim analyses, the lower-bound of the 1-sided 98.131% confidence interval for the group difference was -6.4%. Since both -4.5% and -6.4% are greater than -10%, the results from this comparison demonstrate that the study success criteriority has been achieved, even when utilizing a strict success criterion adjusting for interim analyses.
Primary Effectiveness Endpoint
Adjusted Constant Score: 97.1% of Eclipse subjects experienced a clinically meaningful improvement from baseline (defined as a ≥10 point increase and score value ≥54) at Month 24 compared to 92.5% of Univers II subjects.
Secondary effectiveness endpoints measuring pain, function, and overall quality of life demonstrate that a large percentage of Eclipse subjects achieve a clinically significant improvement at 3 months that persists to 24 months following surgery, in similar rates as the Univers II subjects.
Safety
A Kaplan-Meier approach was utilized for subjects who were considered SSI failures per the primary endpoint (n=7 Eclipse and n=2 Univers II). The rate of subsequent surgical intervention was 3.6% for Edipse subjects and 3.1% for the control subjects through 24 months. In the Eclipse group, two subjects required surgery due to confirmed or
{6}------------------------------------------------
suspected infection; three subjects required revision due to torn rotator cuff or subscapularis tendon; and two subjects required revision due to injury to the shoulder sustained from a fall. In the Univers II group, two subjects required revision due to torn rotator cuff or subscapularis tendon; and one had a reoperation adjacent to the joint (distal clavicle resection) due to pain.
The rate of events that were considered device-related was similar between the two groups (Eclipse: 1.4% vs Univers II: 1.3%). The rate of events that were considered procedure-related was also similar between the two groups (Eclipse: 23.2% vs Univers II: 20.5%).
The Eclipse patients did not experience any radiographic failures and had a higher adjusted Constant Score in comparison to the control.
Significant Findings
Glenoid lucencies were reviewed for Eclipse and Univers II subjects in this study with particular attention to the radiolucency grades observed. At Month 24, the majority of subjects had no glenoid radiolucencies (Grade 0) or minor radiolucencies (Grades 1, 2). A very small percentage of subjects had glenoid radiolucencies ≤2 mm wide (Grade 3) around two or more pegs or around the keel, as applicable. No subjects had glenoid radiolucencies >2 mm wide (Grade 4) or gross loosening (Grade 5). For the subjects with Grade 3 glenoid radiolucencies, the difference in proportions between the control and investigational groups was not significant for either fixation type.
Rotator Cuff tears were observed in both Eclipse and Univers II groups. However, the rates were low (2.3% Eclipse and 1.4% Univers II). Rotator cuff deficiencies are not typically device related and there are no differences in surgical exposure with the Eclipse compared to stemmed arthroplasties or other stems.
Summary
Based on the clinical performance as documented in the pivotal clinical study, the Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis System was found to have a safety and effectiveness profile that is similar to the predicate device.
Literature Review
A total of 298 unique publications were screened and reviewed during the time frame searched (01 January 2008 to 22 May 2019). From this list, abstracts were reviewed and publications excluded if they were not publications focused on clinical experience of the subject device. When needed, the full text was obtained for more in-depth evaluation for possible contribution in providing supportive data for the effectiveness and/or the safety of the subject device used as intended, whether it contained favorable or unfavorable findings.
In total, nine studies were included, reporting on 748 shoulders treated with the ECLIPSE Shoulder Prosthesis. The reviewed literature shows the device is effective and safe when used as intended.
The authors collected relevant information related to the effectiveness and safety of the device. Five studies reported the same pain score measure of the Constant Score and consistently demonstrated a successful reduction in pain and return to activities of daily living. One additional article patient reported outcome measure and found the device to be effective in improvement of patient function. All authors who reported effectiveness data reached favorable conclusions for the use of the ECLIPSE device.
While radiographic findings were commonly reported, the majority did not correlate with clinical results (e.g., decline in function or reported adverse event), and a large number were associated with the glenoid component. Heuberer, et al. (2018 mixed cohort) reported radiological changes in 37.0% of patients, i.e., partial osteolysis in approximately 6.9% of patients and complete osteolysis in one or more zones in approximately 30.1% of patients. While there were a large number of radiographic changes noted by the radiologist, these findings did not represent an increased chance of revision surgery or in the patient's clinical outcome (e.g., Constant Score). Additionally, at mid-term follow-up, 96.2% of patients were very satisfied with their ECLIPSE. Hawi, et al. (2017 mixed cohort) reported incomplete radiolucency < 1mm in 2.3% of shoulders on the humeral side and an
{7}------------------------------------------------
incomplete radiolucent line was observed in 27.3% of shoulders on the glenoid side. There were no instances of loosening on the humeral or glenoid side and only 1 instance of secondary glenoid wear on the glenoid side. It is important to note that these findings are through 9 years of follow-up, and the authors hypothesize the changes may be due to age-related osteopenia. Authors consistently reported findings were comparable to other literature studies, and possibly attributable to age-related comorbidities. It should also be noted that there is a limitation with radiographic findings reported across literature studies due to the varying definitions used to define radiographic changes, as well as the quality and consistency of the images used.
All clinical complications were consistent with those anticipated for a shoulder arthroplasty patient population. Higher rates were reported for loosening (10.0%), infection (9.8%), rotator cuff deficiency / tear (12%), and secondary glenoid erosion (11.0%). The 10% loosening was reported in two out of 20 patients and specific to the glenoid component. Rotator cuff deficiency / tear was reported at a rate of 12% in two studies treating patients with hemi or total shoulder arthroplasty. Heuberer, et al. (2018 mixed cohort) reported nine instances (12.3%) of secondary rotator cuff repair post-operatively requiring revision and Hawi, et al. (2017 mixed cohort) reported six instance of rotator cuff deficiency, but only two events required secondary intervention. Follow-up in these studies ranged from nearly 5 years to over 9 years post-op. Both authors concluded the rates align with literature for total shoulder arthroplasty, where secondary cuff failure is the primary reason for revision. Secondary glenoid erosion, specific to the glenoid component, was reported in eight patents in a single study. Johansson, et al. (2018) reported a higher rate of infection in the ECLIPSE group (9.8%); however, the authors noted limitations in the study and potential bias in the patient population. These events are anticipated with shoulder surgery, and were considered by the authors to be comparable to or better than controls or similar studies for stemmed shoulder devices.
Conclusion
The Arthrex Eclipse Shoulder Prosthesis has the same intended use and the same fundamental scientific technology as the Arthrex Univers II Shoulder Prosthesis System, Sidus Stem-Free Shoulder, and Simpliciti Shoulder System. Based on the clinical data, non-clinical data, and literature review presented in this 510(k) for the subject and predicate devices, Arthrex concludes that the proposed device is substantially equivalent to the currently marketed predicate devices.
