The document does not mention AI, ML, or related terms, and the description focuses on traditional treatment planning software functionalities.
No
The device is a treatment planning system (software) used by medical professionals to design and simulate radiation therapy treatments, not directly administer therapy.
No
The Eclipse Treatment Planning System (TPS) is described as a tool for planning radiotherapy treatments, not for diagnosing diseases. Its function is to design and simulate radiation therapy, which is a treatment modality.
Yes
The device description explicitly states that the Eclipse TPS "provides software tools" and is a "computer-based software device." The performance studies section also focuses solely on "Software Verification and Validation Testing," with no mention of hardware testing or components.
Based on the provided information, the Eclipse Treatment Planning System (Eclipse TPS) is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use/Indications for Use: The intended use clearly states that the device is used to "plan radiotherapy treatments with malignant or benign diseases." This involves planning external and internal radiation treatments applied directly to the patient's body.
- Device Description: The description reinforces that it's a "computer-based software device used by trained medical professionals to design and simulate radiation therapy treatments." This is a planning tool for a therapeutic intervention.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: IVD devices are used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening. The provided text does not mention any interaction with or analysis of such specimens.
Therefore, the Eclipse TPS falls under the category of a medical device used for treatment planning, not an in vitro diagnostic device.

COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
The modified device, referred to as the "subject device" throughout this summary, is release version v16.0 (version 16.0) of the Eclipse Treatment Planning System with additional software changes incorporated since the release version of the predicate device, version 15.6 (K181145).
At a high level, both the predicate device and the subject device are based on the same characteristics:
- . Both the subject device and the predicate provide software tools for planning the treatment of malignant or benign diseases with radiation.
- . They are computer-based software devices used by trained medical professionals to design and simulate radiation therapy treatments.
- . They are both capable of planning treatments for external beam irradiation with photon, electron, and proton beams, as well as for internal irradiation (brachytherapy) treatments.
The following differences exist between the software release versions of the subject and the predicate devices:
-
- Introduction of the new RT (Radiotherapy) Peer Review feature
-
- Introduction of the existing RapidPlan feature to proton planning
-
- Other improvements and enhancements of existing radiotherapy planning features
- a. Multi-Criteria Optimization (MCO) Enhancements
- b. External Beam Planning Enhancements
- Halcyon Treatment Planning Enhancements C.
- d. Brachytherapy Treatment Planning Enhancements
- Eclipse Scripting API (ESAPI) Enhancements e.

PERFORMANCE DATA
The following performance data was provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
Software Verification and Validation Testing
Software verification and validation was 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.
Test results demonstrate conformance to applicable requirements and specifications. No animal studies or clinical tests have been included in this pre-market submission.
Standards conformance
The subject device conforms in whole or in part with the following standards:
- IEC 62304 Edition 1.1 2015-06 Medical device software - Software life cycle processes
- IEC 62366-1 Edition 1.0 2015-02 Application of usability engineering to medical devices ●
- IEC 61217 Edition 2.0 2011-12 Radiotherapy equipment - Coordinates, movements, and scales
- IEC 62083 Edition 2.0 2009-09 Requirements for the safety of radiotherapy treatment planning systems ●
- . IEC 82304-1 Edition 1.0 2016-10 Health software - Part 1: General requirements for product safety
Argument for substantial equivalence to the predicate device
A subset of software features and characteristics of the subject device are different from the predicate device. However, Varian considers these differences to be enhancements of the predicate. The principle of operation of the subject device is the same as that of the existing predicate device. Verification and validation demonstrate that the subject device is as safe and effective as the predicate. Varian therefore believes that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
CONCLUSION
The predicate device was cleared based only on non-clinical testing, and no animal or clinical studies were performed for the subject device. The non-clinical data supports the device, and verification and validation demonstrate that the subject device should perform as intended in the specified use conditions. There were no remaining discrepancy reports (DRs) which could be classified as Safety or Customer Intolerable. Therefore, Varian considers Eclipse Treatment Planning System v16.0 to be safe and effective and perform at least as well as the predicate device, Eclipse Treatment Planning System v15.6 (K181145).
