No
The device description focuses on the physical characteristics and mechanical properties of the interbody cages, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate the use of AI/ML. The performance studies are also focused on mechanical testing.
Yes.
The device, Largo™ Interbody Cages, is used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical and lumbar spine to treat degenerative disc disease, which are therapeutic interventions.
No
The Largo™ Interbody Cages are described as spinal implants used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion, which is a therapeutic rather than a diagnostic function.
No
The device description clearly details physical interbody cages made of PEEK, designed for surgical implantation in the spine. It describes their shapes, sizes, materials, and features like teeth and x-ray markers, indicating a hardware device. The performance studies also focus on physical properties like compression, torsion, expulsion, and subsidence.
Based on the provided text, the Largo™ Interbody Cages are not an In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) device.
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Largo™ Interbody Cages Function: The description clearly states that these devices are "hollow vertebral body spacers designed for use in the cervical and lumbar spine." Their intended use is to "facilitate intervertebral body fusion" and provide "posterior stabilization." They are physical implants used in surgical procedures.
- Lack of Specimen Analysis: There is no mention of the Largo™ Interbody Cages being used to analyze any biological specimens.
Therefore, the Largo™ Interbody Cages are a surgical implant, not an IVD.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
Largo™ Interbody Cages - Cervical are indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one disc level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. Largo™ Interbody Cages - Cervical are used to facilitate intervertebral body fusion in the cervical spine and are placed via an anterior approach at the C3 to C7 disc levels using autograft bone. Largo™ Interbody Cages - Cervical are to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment with an intervertebral cage.
Largo™ Interbody Cages - Lumbar are indicated for use with autograft bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis at the involved level(s). Largo™ Interbody Cages - Lumbar are intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems, such as pedicle screws. Patients should be skeletally mature and have six (6) months of nonoperative therapy prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage.

Device Description
The Largo™ PEEK Interbody System consists of a variety of hollow vertebral body spacers designed for use in the cervical and lumbar spine. The devices are intended to be used with supplemental internal spinal fixation systems that are cleared by the FDA for use in the lumbar spine and cervical spine.
The Largo™ PEEK Interbody Cervical Cage was developed for anterior cervical fusion and is available in footprints from 14 x 12mm up to 17 x 14mm and at 0 and 7 degree lordosis. The cages are trapezoidal in shape and include x-ray markers for positioning. The subject device is with angular teeth to allow the implant to grip the superior and inferior end plates to provide resistance to expulsion.
The Largo™ PEEK Posterior Lumbar Interbody Cage (PLIF) was developed for posterior stabilization of the lumbar spine. These cages feature a convex bullet nose design and an axial void designed to contain autograft material. The subject device is made in various lengths and designed with angular teeth to allow the implant to grip the superior and inferior end plates to provide resistance to expulsion. The devices range from 7mm to 16mm in height, 23mm to 37mm in length, and from 9 to 11mm in width.
The Largo™ PEEK Transforaminal Lumbar Interbody Fusion (TLIF) Cage was developed for posterior stabilization of the lumbar spine. It is a banana-shaped implant featuring a convex, bullet nose design and an axial void designed to hold autograft material. The subject device is made in various lengths and designed with angular teeth to allow the implant to grip the superior and inferior end plates to provide resistance to expulsion. The devices range from 7mm to 16mm in height and footprints of 11 x 28 up to 13 x 37 mm. The cages incorporate an A/P lordotic angle of 5 degrees.
The Largo™ PEEK Anterior Lumbar Interbody Fusion (ALIF) Cage was developed for anterior stabilization of the lumbar spine. The footprint is oval in shape and features a center beam for additional strength. The leading edge is bulleted for ease of insertion and features angular teeth for endplate grip and resistance to expulsion. The devices range from 8mm to 22mm in height and footprints of 30 x 24 up to 47 x 30 mm. The cages incorporate an A/P lordotic angle of 6 or 12 degrees.
The Largo™ PEEK Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion (LLIF) Cage was developed for a lateral approach to the lumbar spine. The cage is rectangular in shape and features a center beam for additional strength. The leading edge is bulleted for ease of insertion and features angular teeth for endplate grip and to resist expulsion. The devices range from 8mm to 16mm in height and footprints of 18 x 50 mm up to 22 x 60 mm. The cages incorporate an A/P lordotic angle of 0 or 6 degrees.
