Intended Use
CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit is intended for use in the vitrification of oocytes (MII), pronuclear (PN) zygotes through day 3 cleavage stage embryos and blastocyst stage embryos. CryoX™ Vitrification Thaw Kit is intended for use in the thawing of virified oocytes (MII), pronuclear (PN) zygotes through day 3 cleavage stage embryos, and blastocyst stage embryos.
Device Description
CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit is designed to facilitate dehydration of oocytes (MI), pronuclear (PN) zygotes through day 3 cleavage stage embryos and blastocyst stage embryos before vitrification via rapid cooling in liquid nitrogen. CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit contains two solutions to be used sequentially during vitrification. Both solutions consist of Medium 199 (M199), human serum albumin (HSA) and gentamicin sulfate. They also contain varying levels of cryoprotectants, including dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol (EG), and sucrose. CryoX™ Vitrification Thaw Kt contains three solutions to be used sequentially during oocyte and embryo thawing procedures. All three solutions contain M199, HSA, and gentamicin sulfate. They also contain decreasing concentrations of cryoprotectant. The five solutions in the CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit and Thaw Kt are aseptically filtered and provided in 4.5 mLPETG vials. The solutions in these kits are single-use only. They have a shelf-life of 6 months when stored at 2-8℃
More Information

No
The device description and performance studies focus on the chemical composition and physical properties of the vitrification and thawing solutions, not on any computational or analytical capabilities. There is no mention of AI, ML, image processing, or data analysis.

No
The device is described as a vitrification and thaw kit for oocytes and embryos, which are used in assisted reproductive technologies like IVF. While these procedures are medical, the device itself acts as a medium for preserving and thawing biological materials, not directly treating a disease or condition in a patient. It facilitates a laboratory process rather than providing therapeutic intervention.

No

This device is a vitrification and thaw kit used for preserving and unfreezing oocytes and embryos, not for diagnosing medical conditions.

No

The device description clearly outlines physical components (solutions in vials) and their chemical composition, indicating it is a physical medical device, not software-only.

Based on the provided information, the CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit and CryoX™ Vitrification Thaw Kit are IVDs (In Vitro Diagnostics).

Here's why:

  • Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that the kits are for the vitrification and thawing of biological materials (oocytes and embryos) in vitro (outside of the living body). This is a key characteristic of IVDs.
  • Device Description: The description details the chemical composition of the solutions used to interact with the biological samples in vitro for the purpose of preservation and recovery.
  • Performance Studies: The performance studies include tests like Mouse Embryo Assay (MEA), which is a common test for devices used in assisted reproduction technology (ART), a field that heavily relies on in vitro procedures.
  • Predicate Device: The predicate device (K190152; Vit Kit- Freeze NX and Vit Kit- Warm NX) is also a vitrification and warming kit for oocytes and embryos, which are typically classified as IVDs.

While the document doesn't explicitly state "In Vitro Diagnostic Device," the intended use, device description, and the context of assisted reproduction technology strongly indicate that these kits are designed for in vitro use and would be regulated as IVDs.

Summary of Performance Studies

The following studies have been conducted in support of the substantial equivalence to the predicate device:

  • Aseptic filtration and aseptic filling validation, per ISO 13408-1:2008 & A1:2013 and ISO 13408-2:2018.
  • Shelf-life testing was conducted to support a 6-month shelf-life for the subject device through demonstration that the product specifications (Appearance, pH, Osmolality, Sterility, Bacterial endotoxin, MEA) were met at time 0 and after accelerated aging in accordance with ASTM F1980-16.
  • Transportation testing per ASTM D4169-22 and cap/seal leak testing using a method equivalent to USP on transportation-conditioned devices.
    Key Results: The results of the performance testing described above demonstrate that CryoX™ Vitrification Freeze Kit / Thaw Kit is as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.

Key Metrics

  • Appearance: Clean, transparent, pink; no impurities
  • pH per USP : 7.2-7.6
  • Osmolality per USP : 8551042 mOsmol/kg for ES (1:2 dilution); 1916-2477 mOsmol/kg for VS (1:2 dilution); 16532430 mOsmol/kg for TS; 871~1025 mOsmol/kg for DS; 307-318 mOsmol/kg for WS
  • Sterility per USP : No microbial growth
  • Bacterial endotoxin per USP : = 80% embryos developed to expanded blastocyst at 96 hours.

§ 884.6180 Reproductive media and supplements.

(a)
Identification. Reproductive media and supplement are products that are used for assisted reproduction procedures. Media include liquid and powder versions of various substances that come in direct physical contact with human gametes or embryos (including water, acid solutions used to treat gametes or embryos, rinsing solutions, sperm separation media, supplements, or oil used to cover the media) for the purposes of preparation, maintenance, transfer or storage. Supplements are specific reagents added to media to enhance specific properties of the media (e.g., proteins, sera, antibiotics, etc.).(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls) (mouse embryo assay information, endotoxin testing, sterilization validation, design specifications, labeling requirements, biocompatibility testing, and clinical testing). The device, when it is phosphate-buffered saline used for washing, and short-term handling and manipulation of gametes and embryos; culture oil used as an overlay for culture media containing gametes and embryos; and water for assisted reproduction applications, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 884.9.
