Explanation: The device is described as a "computerized, electromechanical medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, magnetic fields to induce electrical currents targeting specific regions of the cerebral cortex" for the "adjunctive treatment" of OCD. Its purpose is therapeutic, not diagnostic.
No
The device description explicitly states it is a "computerized, electromechanical medical device" and lists multiple hardware components such as a stimulator, coils, trolley, and a treatment chair. This indicates it is a hardware-based device with software control, not a software-only device.
Based on the provided text, the MagVenture TMS Therapy System is not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is for the treatment of Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) by applying magnetic fields to the brain. This is a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The description details a system that produces and delivers magnetic fields to induce electrical currents in the brain. This is a physical intervention on the patient's body.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The text does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD device, such as:
- Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening based on sample analysis
The device is clearly described as a therapeutic medical device used for direct treatment of a neurological condition.

Device Description
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD is a computerized, electromechanical medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, magnetic fields to induce electrical currents targeting specific regions of the cerebral cortex. The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for treatment of OCD is indicated as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients who are suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). MagVenture TMS Therapy system has previously obtained FDA clearance for treatment of major depressive disorder in adult patients who have failed to receive satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode (K150641, K171481, K171967, K172667, K173620).
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive technique for stimulating brain and neural tissue. The principle of magnetic stimulation is implicit in Faraday's law. The pulses of current are generated with a circuit containing a capacitor connected to the stimulating coil. With the capacitor charged to a certain level, the conducting state will cause the discharging of the capacitor through the coil. A magnetic field is generated proportional to this current. The rapid change in the magnetic field induces a current in conducting materials e.g. the body tissue. If the current induced in the human body is of sufficient amplitude and duration, it will excite neurons. The standard-of-care FDA cleared TMS protocol for treatment of OCD uses repetitive transcranial magnetic pulses applied at a frequency of 20 Hz. The safety and effectiveness for treatment of OCD have been established in a clinical trial that lead to an FDA De Novo clearance of the primary predicate device, the Brainsway DTMS system. The present 510(k) does not include new pivotal data, but includes clinical trial data on more than 500 subjects treated with the Mag Venture TMS Therapy System, in order to demonstrate performance and safety. Treatment of OCD is applied to the human brain of the bilateral dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC) using 20 Hz TMS for 18 min. The treatment parameters are identical to those recommended by the Primary Predicate Device.
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system – for adjunctive treatment of OCD is an integrated system consisting of the following components:
- MagPro Stimulator and Trolley .
- MagPro Family (R30, R30 w. MagOption, X100, X100 w. MagOption) o
- Trolley with holding arrangements o
- Coil for MT determination and OCD treatment .

Summary of Performance Studies (study type, sample size, AUC, MRMC, standalone performance, key results)
Clinical performance data: This 510(k) does not contain any pivotal clinical trial data related to the new device. The substantial equivalency was established based on similar technological characteristics, but we have provided some clinical trial data to support the safety of the new device. The clinical evidence submitted also supports the safety and use of the new device as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). A number of clinically relevant scientific references including more than 500 subjects treated with MagVenture TMS Therapy using the Cool D-B80 coil have been included with full text, as well as a summary and rationale for how these references support SE determination and/or safety and effectiveness for the new device for the proposed indication for use and for the proposed treatment protocol.
The primary predicate device De Novo Summary refers to a publication by Carmi et al. (2), who published the results of their pivotal trial supporting the De Novo, DEN170078. This study included a total of n=99, of which n= 50 received active TMS treatment. The proposed indication for use and treatment protocol are identical to that of the primary predicate device.
The new device is already cleared for use in both Europe and Canada and has been used in clinical research for a number of years.
Most of the clinical research performed using the new device has been conducted outside the USA. Most research has focused on the use of the new device for treatment of treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or major depressive disorder (MDD). There has been considerable interest in investigating the DMPFC as a target for TRD/MDD. Though MDD/TRD and OCD are distinct psychiatric disorders they share common underlying deficits in cortical networks. Thus, it is therefore relevant to demonstrate that the new device can be used to deliver TMS at the right treatment location, DMPFC, and that this can lead to modulation of deeper brain structures and long-range networks that are important in the recovery of symptoms of OCD as well as MDD. In addition, the clinical trials also demonstrate that the new device can be used efficiently and routinely to determine MT in the leg or foot, in a substantially equivalent way to the primary predicate device. Importantly, the clinical data also helps demonstrate safety for the new device.
In summary, the literature referenced includes a total of 521 subjects treated with TMS or iTBS protocols effectively targeting the DMPFC using the new device with treatment intensity defined based on the use of Leg MT. It is noteworthy that most of the clinical investigations have utilized treatment intensities that are higher than those used by the primary predicate device for OCD as reported by Carmi et al (2). Thus, treatment with the new device at an intensity of 100% Leg MT might be even more tolerable and safer in comparison with higher intensity. Despite this difference in intensity, the clinical data for the new device shows that the treatment overall is well-tolerated and safe. The treatment with the new device does not introduce any new adverse or serious adverse events. In fact, the side effect profile resembles that of standard TMS and iTBS treatment of the L-DLPFC and it is also equivalent to the side effect profile of the primary predicate device.
We therefore conclude that the treatment with the new device is safe and provides equivalent performance to the primary predicate device in terms of safety and performance. The most common side effects reported for both devices are headache and/or pain at stimulation site.
In addition, a small pilot trial using the new device also demonstrated a clinically and statistically significant effect of treatment of OCD. Despite the low number of subjects, this trial supports the performance of the new device as an adjunct for treatment of OCD, even though the protocol was utilizing lower frequency of stimulation, that is 10 Hz compared to 20 Hz.

Device description
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD is a computerized, electromechanical medical device that produces and delivers non-invasive, magnetic fields to induce electrical currents targeting specific regions of the cerebral cortex. The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for treatment of OCD is indicated as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients who are suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). MagVenture TMS Therapy system has previously obtained FDA clearance for treatment of major depressive disorder in adult patients who have failed to receive satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode (K150641, K171481, K171967, K172667, K173620).

Intended Use
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system is intended to be used as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
The intended use is identical to that of the Primary Predicate Device.
Performance Standards:
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD has been tested and conforms with the following standards
- . ISO 13485:2016
- IEC60601-1 •
- IEC60601-1-2 .
Non-Clinical performance data:
The contents of this 510(k) complies with the FDA Guidance Document: "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Systems - Guidance for Industry and Food and Drug Administration Staff". The non-clinical performance testing of the components of the MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for treatment of OCD has been tested as required according to the standards listed above. All components, except the Cool D-B80 coil, have previously been cleared by the FDA, see K150641, K171481, K172667 and K173620. The MagVenture TMS Therapy system – for adjunctive treatment of OCD consists of components that are identical to those of the predicate device, with the exception of the Cool D-B80 coil. The new coil is identical to the predicate device in terms of biocompatibility, design elements, such as cable lengths, coil materials, cooling media,
6
isolation design and functionalities. All coils are subject to high-voltage tests and leakage current tests to ensure safety.
To establish substantial equivalency for the new coil, Cool D-B80, and the primary predicate device, especially the HAC – H7 coil, we have performed substantial equivalence comparisons for testing and performance as described in Section 4 of the FDA's Class II Special Controls Guidance document: Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (rTMS) Systems.
We have performed a comparative testing of the magnetic field distribution for the Cool D-B80 coil and compared to that of the primary predicate device. This comparison determines that the magnetic spatial distribution is substantially equivalent. Both coils are so-called double cone coils, containing two coils that do not overlap, and allows for a deeper and broader stimulation of the cortex. We have provided information about magnetic field characteristics, including linearity of output level, magnetic field strength gradients, output waveform and magnetic field spatial distribution according to the Special Controls Guidance document, Section 4 as mentioned above. In addition, we have provided magnetic field characteristics for other, different relevant clinical depths of the human brain than those specified in the Special Controls Guidance and in the De Novo Summary of the Primary Predicate Device, which limits information to 2 cm depth.
In addition, we have modelled the magnetic properties of the New Device and the Primary Predicate Device, the HAC-7 coil. Our coil model calculations are based on the concept of well-established scientific methods (1).
The results of the e-field modelling of the HAC-7 coil is in line with the Manufacturer information provided in the De Novo Summary for the primary predicate device, DEN170078. The results of the e-field model show the magnetic field strength in the cortex for the two coils. This shows that the Cool D-B80 coil is able to reach the deeper underlying cortical layers similarly to the HAC - H7 coil. Based on the modelling, it is therefore concluded, that the magnetic field properties of the Cool D-B80 coil is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device, HAC - H7 in terms of magnetic field properties and realized magnetic field properties. The modelling was used to support the technological comparison provided.
We have also provided information about the magnetic field spatial distribution of the new coil superimposed on T1-weighted MRI coronal, sagittal, and axial 1 cm slices. These images support the substantial equivalence comparisons determination and together with the above information, further supports the substantial equivalence of the new device compared to the primary predicate device, HAC-7.
We have also tested the new device according to IEC60601 3rd edition and verified that the device complies with the specified permissible sound pressure levels. The device also
7
complies with the permissible thresholds for exposure defined by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
These tests provide evidence that the Mag Venture TMS Therapy system does not pose any risk for potential hearing reduction or loss in either patients or operators.
Clinical performance data:
This 510(k) does not contain any pivotal clinical trial data related to the new device. The substantial equivalency was established based on similar technological characteristics, but we have provided some clinical trial data to support the safety of the new device. The clinical evidence submitted also supports the safety and use of the new device as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). A number of clinically relevant scientific references including more than 500 subjects treated with MagVenture TMS Therapy using the Cool D-B80 coil have been included with full text, as well as a summary and rationale for how these references support SE determination and/or safety and effectiveness for the new device for the proposed indication for use and for the proposed treatment protocol.
The primary predicate device De Novo Summary refers to a publication by Carmi et al. (2), who published the results of their pivotal trial supporting the De Novo, DEN170078. This study included a total of n=99, of which n= 50 received active TMS treatment. The proposed indication for use and treatment protocol are identical to that of the primary predicate device.
The new device is already cleared for use in both Europe and Canada and has been used in clinical research for a number of years.
Most of the clinical research performed using the new device has been conducted outside the USA. Most research has focused on the use of the new device for treatment of treatment-resistant depression (TRD) or major depressive disorder (MDD). There has been considerable interest in investigating the DMPFC as a target for TRD/MDD. Though MDD/TRD and OCD are distinct psychiatric disorders they share common underlying deficits in cortical networks. Thus, it is therefore relevant to demonstrate that the new device can be used to deliver TMS at the right treatment location, DMPFC, and that this can lead to modulation of deeper brain structures and long-range networks that are important in the recovery of symptoms of OCD as well as MDD. In addition, the clinical trials also demonstrate that the new device can be used efficiently and routinely to determine MT in the leg or foot, in a substantially equivalent way to the primary predicate device. Importantly, the clinical data also helps demonstrate safety for the new device.
8
In summary, the literature referenced includes a total of 521 subjects treated with TMS or iTBS protocols effectively targeting the DMPFC using the new device with treatment intensity defined based on the use of Leg MT. It is noteworthy that most of the clinical investigations have utilized treatment intensities that are higher than those used by the primary predicate device for OCD as reported by Carmi et al (2). Thus, treatment with the new device at an intensity of 100% Leg MT might be even more tolerable and safer in comparison with higher intensity. Despite this difference in intensity, the clinical data for the new device shows that the treatment overall is well-tolerated and safe. The treatment with the new device does not introduce any new adverse or serious adverse events. In fact, the side effect profile resembles that of standard TMS and iTBS treatment of the L-DLPFC and it is also equivalent to the side effect profile of the primary predicate device.
We therefore conclude that the treatment with the new device is safe and provides equivalent performance to the primary predicate device in terms of safety and performance. The most common side effects reported for both devices are headache and/or pain at stimulation site.
In addition, a small pilot trial using the new device also demonstrated a clinically and statistically significant effect of treatment of OCD. Despite the low number of subjects, this trial supports the performance of the new device as an adjunct for treatment of OCD, even though the protocol was utilizing lower frequency of stimulation, that is 10 Hz compared to 20 Hz.
Taken together, the literature demonstrates that the new device can be used effectively and routinely for determining Leg MT, and that the treatment modulates brain activity locally in the DMPFC and strongly suggests also distal brain areas, through downstream activation of long-range networks. Though MDD and OCD are two distinct psychiatric disorders, they share some common underlying deficits in brain networks. So, though most of the research using the new device has investigated treatment of MDD, the data can support the use of the new device as an adjunct for treatment of OCD in terms of safety and given that the treatments have been performed targeting the same cortical area. DMPFC bilaterally, in a substantially equivalent way to the primary predicate device.
Finally, the clinical data for the new device essentially supports the modelled e-fields presented above, and treatment with the new device is as safe as treatment with the primary predicate device. There is no reason to suspect increased risk for unwanted or severe side effects. Moreover, clinical data shows the new device's ability to deliver effective treatment of the DMPFC and potentially affecting deeper cortical brain areas. We therefore conclude that the new device is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device in terms of performance, effectiveness and safety.

Substantial equivalence:
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device, the Brainsway DTMS system HAC - H7 coil. The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for treatment of OCD and the primary predicate device have identical indication for use, and identical treatment parameters as well as treatment target. The magnetic field properties of the Cool D-B80 is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device, the Brainsway DTMS HAC - H7 coil (DEN170078, K183303).
All components of the new device, except the Cool D-B80 coil, are identical to those of the predicate device. These have all previously obtained FDA clearance for treatment of major depressive disorder in adult patients who have failed to receive satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode (K150641, K171967 and K173620).
The new coil, Cool D-B80 is also identical to that of the predicate devices, in terms of materials, design elements, liquid cooling and biocompatibility.
The treatment protocol is identical to that of the primary predicate device, and applies transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) at an intensity of 100% of Leg Motor Threshold (MT) as repetitive pulse trains at a frequency of 20 Hz delivered as brief rapidly alternating magnetic fields to induce electrical currents over the dorsomedial prefrontal cortex (DMPFC). All labelling claims related to effectiveness and safety are based on the literature describing the pivotal clinical trial results of the primary predicate device for the proposed intended use.
Both the MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD and the predicate devices consist of the same components, that is a TMS stimulator with software, an articulated arm for positioning of the treatment coil. The operational procedures including system setup, patient preparations, motor threshold determination and coil positioning are substantially equivalent.

Conclusion:
The new device, MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD, is identical to the predicate device, MagVenture TMS Therapy system, except for the treatment coil, Cool D-B80, which has not previously been cleared by the FDA. All other components of the new device have previously been cleared by the FDA, most recently in 2018 (K173620).
The indication for use, the target population, the TMS treatment protocol and the treatment position are all identical for the MagVenture TMS Therapy system and the primary predicate device, Brainsway DTMS System (DEN170078). The treatment parameters proposed for the new device are identical to those recommended by the primary predicate device. Clinical evidence pertaining to the new device demonstrates that the treatment is safe, well-tolerated and effective. The new device is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device in terms of performance, safety and effectiveness.
The new coil is identical to the predicate coils, Cool-B70 and Cool-B65, in terms of design parameters, such as materials, biocompatibility, liquid cooling and pulse width. The new coil is substantially equivalent to the primary predicate device, Brainsway DTMS HAC - H7 coil in terms of magnetic properties and magnetic spatial distribution. The two coils are both so-called double cone coils, which contain two individual, nonoverlapping magnetic coils that allow for a broader and more deep stimulation of the cortex. E-field modelling of the new device compared to the primary predicate device demonstrates that the magnetic field properties and the depth penetration of the two devices in the human cortex are substantially equivalent.
The clinical data submitted with this 510(k), helps support the performance and safety of the new device and shows that also the side effect profile is substantially equivalent to that of the primary predicate.
12
The reliability of the positioning method used by the new device is based on the direct relationship of the underlying cortical brain anatomy to the patient's scalp, identical to the method used for the predicate devices.
The MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD does not introduce any new safety considerations in comparison to the predicate devices.
All other identified differences between the two systems are minor and without any impact on safety or efficacy.
The above comparison demonstrates and supports the substantial equivalence of the MagVenture TMS Therapy system - for adjunctive treatment of OCD to the predicate devices, Brainsway DTMS System (DEN170078; primary predicate), and the MagVenture TMS Therapy system (K150641, K171967, K172667, K172667, K173620).
