Intended Use
The aprevo® anterior and lateral lumbar interbody fusion devices are interbody fusion in skeletally mature patients and are to be used with supplemental fixation cleared for use in the lumbar spine. The aprevo® anterior and lateral lumbar interbody fusion devices are indicated for use as an adjunct to fusion at one or more levels of the lumbar spine in patients having an ODI >40 and diagnosed with severe symptomatic adult spinal deformity (ASD) conditions. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. The devices are intended to be used with autograft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or cortico-cancellous bone graft. These implants may be implanted via a variety of open or minimally invasive approaches may include anterior lumbar interbody fusion or lateral lumbar interbody fusion. The aprevo® anterior and lateral lumbar interbody fusion devices are indicated for use at one or more levels of the lumbosacral spine as an adjunct to fusion in patients with the following indications: degenerative disc disease (DDD), disc herniation (with myelopathy and/or radiculopathy), spondylolisthesis, deformity (degenerative scoliosis or kyphosis), spinal stenosis, and failed previous fusion (pseudarthrosis). DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc as confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment. aprevo® anterior and lateral lumbar interbody fusion devices are to be filled with autograft bone and/or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone. These devices are intended to be used with supplemental fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the thoracolumbosacral spine (e.g., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems).

Device Description
The aprevo® anterior, lateral and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion devices are designed to stabilize the lumbar spinal column and facilitate fusion. The personalized aprevo® devices incorporate patient specific features to allow the surgeon to tailor the deformity correction to the individual needs of the patient and include an aperture intended for the packing of bone graft. The individualized surgical correction plan and device configurations are developed using patient CT scans. The aprevo® devices are manufactured from titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) per ASTM F3001 and are provided sterile.
More Information

Not Found

No
The description focuses on the physical device design, materials, and surgical planning based on CT scans, without mentioning any AI/ML algorithms for analysis, planning, or device function.

Yes
The device is described as an interbody fusion device intended to stabilize the lumbar spinal column and facilitate fusion in patients with various spinal conditions, which are therapeutic aims.

No

The device is an interbody fusion device designed to stabilize the lumbar spinal column and facilitate fusion, not to diagnose medical conditions.

No

The device description explicitly states the devices are manufactured from titanium alloy, indicating they are physical implants, not software.

Based on the provided text, the aprevo® anterior, lateral, and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion devices are not In Vitro Diagnostic (IVD) devices.

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.
  • Device Description and Intended Use: The aprevo® devices are implants designed to be surgically placed within the lumbar spine to stabilize the spinal column and facilitate fusion. They are used in conjunction with bone graft and supplemental fixation. Their purpose is mechanical support and promoting bone growth, not analyzing biological samples.

The text clearly describes a surgical implant used in vivo (within the body) for structural support and fusion, which is fundamentally different from an in vitro diagnostic test.

(a)
Identification. An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.

Dear Ms. Liu:

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. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. 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

1

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 devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97).

Performance Data

No new performance data was necessary to evaluate the modifications to the indications for use.

CONCLUSION

The aprevo® anterior, lateral and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion devices have the same intended use as the predicate devices, and the materials, sterility, sizes, shapes, and patient specific adaptable features are unchanged. Therefore, the aprevo® anterior, lateral and transforaminal lumbar interbody fusion devices are substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate devices.
