No
The device description and performance studies focus on the material composition and biological properties of a bone void filler, with no mention of AI or ML.
No
The device is a bone void filler intended to fill bony voids or gaps and is replaced by bone during healing, rather than actively providing therapy or treatment.
No
Explanation: The device description clearly states that AttraX Scaffold is an "implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system" and a "bone void filler." Its function is therapeutic, aiming to aid bone healing and replacement, rather than to diagnose medical conditions or diseases.
No
The device description clearly states it is a physical implantable material (ceramic granules and collagen) intended to fill bony voids, not a software program.
Based on the provided information, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- Intended Use: The intended use clearly states that AttraX Scaffold is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system. This is a therapeutic and structural function within the body.
- Device Description: The description details the composition and function of the material as a bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced by bone. This is consistent with an implantable medical device.
- Lack of Diagnostic Function: There is no mention of the device being used to examine specimens derived from the human body to provide information for the diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, treatment, or alleviation of disease.
IVD devices are used in vitro (outside the body) to analyze samples like blood, urine, or tissue to provide diagnostic information. AttraX Scaffold is used in vivo (inside the body) as a structural and regenerative material.
N/A
Intended Use / Indications for Use
AttraX Scaffold is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., posterolateral spine, intervertebral disc space and pelvis). These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. AttraX Scaffold resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. When used in the posterolateral spine, AttraX Scaffold must be used in combination with either autogenous bone or autogenous bone marrow aspirate. When used in intervertebral body fusion procedures, AttraX Scaffold must be used in combination with either autogenous bone or autogenous bone marrow aspirate and with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.

Device Description
AttraX Scaffold is an osteoconductive and resorbable bone void filler consisting of hydroxyapatite/tricalcium phosphate ceramic granules premixed with a highly purified type I bovine collagen that provides cohesion between the granules and acts as an absorbent matrix for fluids. The bone graft mimics the composition of natural bone and is biocompatible. AttraX Scaffold provides an osteoconductive environment for promoting new bone formation while resorbing at a rate consistent with bone healing. In situ, the collagen and ceramic components are resorbed and replaced by new bone, similar to the resorption and remodeling observed with autogenous bone.

Summary of Performance Studies
The purpose of this submission is to expand the indications for use of the NuVasive AttraX Scaffold to include its use in the intervertebral disc space in conjunction with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
In support of the prior clearance of AttraX Scaffold (K172497), non-clinical testing data were submitted according to the guidance documents Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device (issued June 2003) and Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile (issued January 2024). The non-clinical testing data submitted, referenced, or relied upon to demonstrate substantial equivalence included chemical composition, physical properties, sterilization, bacterial endotoxin, packaging performance and shelf life, product shelf life, biocompatibility, and animal testing.
Additionally, AttraX Scaffold is composed entirely of electrically nonconductive, nonmetallic, and nonmagnetic materials, and does not have any constraints or conditions on the use in the MR environment, thus we are adding the MR Safe designation to the label. In accordance with ASTM F2503 and Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment (issued October 2023), a scientific rationale, rather than testing, is provided to support the MR Safe designation.
The performance of the primary predicate device has previously been assessed through animal testing at the time of prior clearance with direct comparison to that of the additional predicate device.

F. Performance Data
The purpose of this submission is to expand the indications for use of the NuVasive AttraX Scaffold to include its use in the intervertebral disc space in conjunction with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
In support of the prior clearance of AttraX Scaffold (K172497), non-clinical testing data were submitted according to the guidance documents Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device (issued June 2003) and Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile (issued January 2024). The non-clinical testing data submitted, referenced, or relied upon to demonstrate substantial equivalence included chemical composition, physical properties, sterilization, bacterial endotoxin, packaging performance and shelf life, product shelf life, biocompatibility, and animal testing.
Additionally, AttraX Scaffold is composed entirely of electrically nonconductive, nonmetallic, and nonmagnetic materials, and does not have any constraints or conditions on the use in the MR environment, thus we are adding the MR Safe designation to the label. In accordance with ASTM F2503 and Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff - Testing and Labeling Medical Devices for Safety in the Magnetic Resonance (MR) Environment (issued October 2023), a scientific rationale, rather than testing, is provided to support the MR Safe designation.
G. Substantial Equivalence
The subject device is identical to the primary predicate device NuVasive AttraX Scaffold (K172497) in intended use, design principle, performance, material composition, size options, manufacturing processes, packaging, and biocompatibility. The performance of the primary predicate device has previously been assessed through animal testing at the time of prior clearance with direct comparison to that of the additional predicate device.
The subject device is demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to additional predicate device, NuVasive AttraX Putty (K203714) with respect to intended use. indications, design principles, and performance. The subject device and additional predicate device incorporate calcium phosphate materials within a resorbable binder to perform their intended use, have similar methods of use (e.g., may be molded and packed into bone defects), and are provided in multiple size options. They are provided sterile by irradiation and are intended for single-patient and single-use.
The subject device, primary predicate device and additional predicate device have the same intended use, the same product classification and product code (MOV) and similar Indications for Use statements. The subject device and additional predicate device can be used in combination with morselized autogenous bone (as a bone graft extender) in the posterolateral spine. Alternatively, the subject device and primary predicate device can be used with autogenous bone marrow aspirate in the posterolateral spine. When used in intervertebral body fusion procedures, the subject device is indicated for use with either autogenous bone graft or bone marrow aspirate and with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler;
6
whereas the additional predicate is indicated to be used alone in the intervertebral body fusion procedures with an intervertebral body fusion device cleared by FDA for use with a bone void filler.
Notably, the indications for use language of the subject device pertaining to the intervertebral disc space retains the identical method of use (i.e., must be used in combination with either autogenous bone or autogenous bone marrow aspirate) as specified in the device's posterolateral spine indication and supported by the previously provided animal testing in K172497.
Any differences in the technological characteristics between the subject device, primary predicate, and additional predicate devices do not raise new issues or concerns of safety or efficacy.
H. Conclusions
The subject device, primary predicate device, and additional predicate device have the same intended use and similar indications for use, have the same design principles (e.g., calcium phosphate granules in resorbable binders), are similar in method of use (e.g., moldable/packable), and have similar technological characteristics. The subject device, primary predicate device, and additional predicate device are provided sterile by irradiation and are intended for single-patient and single-use. As has been established by the descriptions, information, and comparisons contained in this Premarket Notification submission, including the data from prior submissions referenced herein, the subject device NuVasive AttraX Scaffold has been demonstrated to be substantially equivalent to its predicate devices cleared by the Agency for commercial distribution in the U.S.
