The device description and performance studies focus on the physical characteristics and MR safety of the stent and delivery system, with no mention of software, algorithms, or data processing that would indicate AI/ML.
Yes.
The device is intended to drain pancreatic ducts, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The device is a stent and delivery system used to drain pancreatic ducts, which is a therapeutic function, not a diagnostic one.
No
The device description explicitly details physical components such as stents, delivery systems, and pushers, which are hardware.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use is to "drain pancreatic ducts" by delivering a stent. This is a therapeutic procedure performed directly on the patient's body.
- Device Description: The device is a physical stent and a delivery system designed for insertion into the pancreatic duct.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body (like blood, urine, tissue, etc.) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or compatibility testing.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples. This device is used in vivo (inside the body) for a therapeutic purpose.

Device Description
The Advanix™ Pancreatic Stent and NaviFlex™ Rapid Exchange (RX) Pancreatic Delivery System and Pushers product consists of pancreatic stents and delivery systems or stent pushers.
The pancreatic stents are provided in straight or single pigtail shapes. The straight shape stents have trailing barbs and/or leading barbs depending on application, a rounded or tapered leading end tip to facilitate access through the papilla, and a rounded trailing end to abut the push catheter portion of the delivery system or stent pusher. The single pigtail stent may or may not have leading end barbs depending on the application. Some stents have lateral drainage holes in the pigtails, a tapered or rounded leading end tip, and a rounded trailing end.
All stents have either an endoscopic marker, fluoroscopic marker, or both on the trailing end of the stent to assist with depth of placement in the pancreatic duct. The location and presence of an endoscopic or fluoroscopic marker are dependent on the length and diameter size of the stent. Some codes have side port holes in the body of the stent.

§ 876.5010 Biliary catheter and accessories.
(a)
Identification. A biliary catheter and accessories is a tubular flexible device used for temporary or prolonged drainage of the biliary tract, for splinting of the bile duct during healing, or for preventing stricture of the bile duct. This generic type of device may include a bile collecting bag that is attached to the biliary catheter by a connector and fastened to the patient with a strap.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). The device, when it is a bile collecting bag or a surgical biliary catheter that does not include a balloon component, is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 876.9.

Dear Kerri Laplaca:
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.
