The device description and intended use describe a synthetic bone void filler with no mention of software, algorithms, or any technology that would incorporate AI/ML.
No
The device is described as an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps and replace bone during healing, and is used as a bone void filler in surgical procedures, not as a therapeutic treatment for disease or illness.
No
The device description clearly states "AttraX® Putty is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system". This describes a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one. It is used to treat a condition by filling bone voids, not to identify or assess a condition.
No
The device is described as a physical bone void filler consisting of ceramic granules and a polymeric binder, clearly indicating it is a hardware device, not software.
Based on the provided text, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that AttraX Putty is an "implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system". This describes a device used in vivo (within the body) for structural support and bone regeneration.
- Device Description: The description details a "synthetic, osteoconductive and resorbable bone void filler device consisting of ceramic granules premixed with a polymeric binder". This is a physical material implanted into the body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue samples) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
IVD devices are used outside the body to analyze samples and provide diagnostic information. AttraX Putty is a surgical implant used inside the body.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
AttraX® Putty is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. posterolateral spine and pelvis) and may be used in combination with autogenous bone. These osseous defects may be surgically created or of traumatic injury to the bone and are not instrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. AttraX Putty resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Device Description
NuVasive AttraX Putty is a synthetic, osteoconductive and resorbable bone void filler device consisting of ceramic granules premixed with a polymeric binder that provides cohesion between the granules. Pressure applied by user manipulation allows the AttraX Putty to be molded into specific shapes, mixed with autograft, or contoured into a bone defect, as desired by the clinician. The subject device is identical to the primary predicate device Progentix AttraX Putty (K151584). No changes to the design, materials, or methods of manufacture have been made for this submission.

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
AttraX Putty was clinically evaluated in instrumented thoracolumbar posterolateral fusion in a patient and observer blinded, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial. The objective of the study was to evaluate whether AttraX Putty used alone as a bone void filler is non-inferior to autologous bone graft (iliac crest + local bone) in instrumented posterolateral fusion. The Level I clinical evidence from this randomized controlled trial demonstrates the non-inferiority of AttraX Putty versus autologous bone graft in instrumented posterolateral spinal fusion.

Dear Ms. Leblanc:
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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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.

In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for

C. Predicate Devices
The subject AttraX Putty is substantially equivalent to multiple predicate devices. Progentix AttraX Putty (K151584) serves as the primary predicate device, CuriOs (AttraX Granules) (K090641). Actifuse Shape (K080736), and the OSferion (K061499) serve as additional predicates.
D. Device Description
NuVasive AttraX Putty is a synthetic, osteoconductive and resorbable bone void filler device consisting of ceramic granules premixed with a polymeric binder that provides cohesion between the granules. Pressure applied by user manipulation allows the AttraX Putty to be molded into specific shapes, mixed with autograft, or contoured into a bone defect, as desired by the clinician. The subject device is identical to the primary predicate device Progentix AttraX Putty (K151584). No changes to the design, materials, or methods of manufacture have been made for this submission.
The purpose of this 510(k) is to expand the indications for use as a bone graft replacement based on animal and clinical data.
E. Indications for Use
AttraX® Putty is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. posterolateral spine and pelvis) and may be used in combination with autogenous bone. These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. AttraX Putty resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Technological Characteristics F.
As was established in this submission, the subject AttraX Putty is substantially equivalent to other predicate devices cleared by the FDA for commercial distribution in the United States. The subject device was shown to be substantially equivalent and have the same technological characteristics as its predicate devices through comparison in areas including design, intended use, material composition, and function. This device does not contain software or electrical equipment.
G. Performance Data
Non-clinical testing data submitted, referenced, or relied upon supports the in vivo safety of AttraX Putty. The data also demonstrates substantial equivalence to the predicate device including chemical composition, physical properties, biocompatibility, and performance characteristics.
In addition, AttraX Putty was clinically evaluated in instrumented thoracolumbar posterolateral fusion in a patient and observer blinded, multicenter, prospective, randomized controlled trial. The objective of the study was to evaluate whether AttraX Putty used alone as a bone void filler is non-inferior to autologous bone graft (iliac crest + local bone) in instrumented posterolateral fusion. The Level I clinical evidence from this randomized controlled trial demonstrates the non-inferiority of AttraX Putty versus autologous bone graft in instrumented posterolateral spinal fusion.
H. Conclusions
Based on the indications for use, non-clinical and clinical data, and comparison to predicate devices, the subject AttraX Putty has been shown to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.
