  • Symphony Clot Container
  • TRUVIC Generator
  • TRUVIC Canister
  • TRUVIC Tubeset

Both Systems are designed to remove thrombus/embolus (also referred to as 'clot') from the peripheral vasculature using controlled aspiration. The Symphony Catheters and the Symphony 16F 82cm Catheter target aspiration from the TRUVIC Generator directly to the thrombus. The Symphony ProHelix may be used to facilitate aspiration and removal of the thrombus through the 16F Symphony Catheter or through the 24F Symphony Catheter. The Symphony ProHelix is not used with the 16F 82cm Symphony Catheter.

The Symphony Catheters and Symphony Dilators are introduced through a vascular access sheath into the peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of the thrombus in the peripheral vasculature or pulmonary anatomy. The 16F 82cm Catheter and compatible Dilator are introduced through a vascular access sheath into the peripheral vasculature and guided over a guidewire to the site of thrombus in the peripheral vasculature. The Symphony 16F 82cm Catheter and compatible Dilator are not intended for use in the pulmonary anatomy. Both the Symphony Catheters and the Symphony 16F 82cm Catheter are used with the TRUVIC Generator, connected using the TRUVIC Tubeset and the TRUVIC Canister, to aspirate thrombus.

As needed, the Symphony ProHelix may be introduced through a Symphony 16F Catheter or a Symphony 24F Catheter to assist with thrombus removal. The Symphony ProHelix is not used with the 16F 82cm Symphony Catheter. The Symphony ProHelix is manually advanced through the Symphony Catheter over a guidewire, remaining inside the Symphony Catheter during the procedure. During aspiration, the handle on the proximal end of the Symphony ProHelix is manually rotated, which rotates the tip of the Symphony ProHelix to facilitate thrombus removal through the Symphony Catheter. The tips of the devices are visible under fluoroscopy.

AI/ML Overview

Here's a breakdown of the acceptance criteria and study details for the Imperative Care, Inc. Symphony™ Thrombectomy System, specifically for the expanded pulmonary embolism indication, based on the provided 510(k) clearance letter:


1. Table of Acceptance Criteria and Reported Device Performance

MetricAcceptance Criteria (Performance Goal)Reported Device Performance
Primary Efficacy Endpoint: Mean Reduction in RV/LV Between Baseline and 48-Hours (assessed by CT Angiography)Lower one-sided 97.5% confidence interval (CI) bound > 0.200.44 ± 0.42 (Mean ± SD) Lower one-sided 97.5% CI for Mean: 0.36 Met: Yes (0.36 > 0.20)
Primary Safety Endpoint: Composite 48-Hour Major Adverse Events (MAE) Rate (all-cause major bleeding, device-related mortality, and device-related serious adverse events including clinical deterioration, pulmonary vascular injury, or cardiac injury)Upper one-sided 97.5% CI bound < 15.0%0.9% (1/109) Upper one-sided 97.5% CI: 5.7% Met: Yes (5.7% < 15.0%)

2. Sample Size Used for the Test Set and Data Provenance

  • Sample Size for Clinical Study (SYMPHONY-PE):

    • ITT Cohort (Safety Analysis): 109 subjects
    • mITT Cohort (Efficacy Analysis - device only used, no thrombolytics/other devices within 48h): 106 subjects
    • Primary Efficacy Analysis Population (mITT with paired RV/LV measurements): 102 subjects
  • Data Provenance: The SYMPHONY-PE clinical study was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open label study conducted across 19 sites in the U.S.


3. Number of Experts Used to Establish the Ground Truth for the Test Set and Qualifications of Those Experts

  • Ground Truth for Clinical Endpoints:
    • Primary Efficacy Endpoints (RV/LV measurements): Adjudicated by an independent imaging core lab. The specific number and qualifications of experts within this core lab are not detailed in the provided document.
    • Primary Safety Endpoints (Major Adverse Events): Adjudicated by an Independent Safety Board (ISB). The specific number and qualifications of experts on this board are not detailed in the provided document.
    • Clinical Events Committee (CEC): Also reviewed safety endpoints data. The number and qualifications are not detailed.

4. Adjudication Method for the Test Set

  • The document states that the primary efficacy endpoint (mean reduction in RV/LV) was "independent core-lab adjudicated."
  • The primary safety endpoint (MAE rate) was "adjudicated by the Independent Safety Board (ISB)."
  • No specific method like "2+1" or "3+1" concensus is described for the adjudication processes. It implies that the core lab and ISB performed their respective adjudications, likely following their own established protocols.

5. If a Multi-Reader Multi-Case (MRMC) Comparative Effectiveness Study was done

  • No, an MRMC comparative effectiveness study was not done. The SYMPHONY-PE study was a single-arm study evaluating the safety and effectiveness of the device itself against pre-specified performance goals, not comparing its performance or human reader performance with and without AI assistance, or against another device.
  • Therefore, no effect size for human reader improvement with AI vs. without AI assistance is reported, as AI is not explicitly mentioned as part of the system or as an aid to human readers in this context.

6. If a Standalone (i.e., algorithm only without human-in-the-loop performance) was done

  • No, a standalone (algorithm-only) performance study was not done. The Symphony™ Thrombectomy System is a medical device for mechanical thrombectomy, not an AI or software algorithm that provides a diagnostic output in a standalone manner. The clinical study evaluated the device in vivo during actual procedures.

7. The Type of Ground Truth Used

  • Clinical Outcomes Data: For the SYMPHONY-PE clinical study, the ground truth was based on clinical outcomes measured in human subjects.
    • Efficacy: Reduction in RV/LV ratio, assessed by CT Angiography (CTA) and adjudicated by an independent imaging core lab. This is a quantitative, image-based clinical measurement.
    • Safety: Rates of Major Adverse Events (MAE) including bleeding, mortality, and device-related SAEs, adjudicated by an Independent Safety Board and CEC. This is based on clinical observations and event reporting.

8. The Sample Size for the Training Set

  • Not applicable / Not provided. The Symphony™ Thrombectomy System is a mechanical device, not a machine learning or AI model. Therefore, there is no "training set" in the context of algorithm development.
  • The document does describe extensive in-vitro bench testing and in-vivo GLP pre-clinical animal testing to validate the device's performance prior to human clinical trials.

9. How the Ground Truth for the Training Set Was Established

  • Not applicable / Not provided. As mentioned above, there is no "training set" for this mechanical device. The ground truth for its development and verification was established through various engineering tests and animal studies, which are designed to validate physical performance, material properties, and biocompatibility against established standards and safety profiles.

XII. CLINICAL STUDY

Introduction

The SYMPHONY-PE clinical study was a prospective, multicenter, single-arm, open label study. Its primary objective was to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the Symphony Thrombectomy System in patients diagnosed with acute pulmonary embolism (PE). The study enrolled 109 subjects across 19 sites in the U.S. All 109 subjects were site-assessed as meeting all study inclusion and exclusion criteria, underwent the procedure, and were enrolled in the study (ITT cohort). A subset of 106 subjects from the full ITT cohort, in whom the study device was the only thrombectomy device used to treat the index PE and who did not require thrombolytics or other devices within 48 hours of the procedure, comprised the mITT cohort.

An independent imaging core lab and a clinical events committee (CEC) reviewed safety endpoints data.

Study Design

Subjects between the age of 18 to 80 years old with clinical symptoms consistent with pulmonary embolism with an RV/LV greater than 0.9 as evidenced by CT angiography and assessed by investigators prior to procedure were recruited.

The primary efficacy endpoint was the independent core-lab adjudicated mean reduction in RV/LV from baseline to 48-hours post-procedure assessed by CT Angiography (CTA). A pre-specified performance goal for success was defined as achieving a lower one-sided 97.5% confidence interval (CI) bound >0.20. The primary safety endpoint was the rate of major adverse events defined as a composite rate of all-cause major bleeding, device-related mortality and device-related serious adverse events including clinical deterioration, pulmonary vascular injury, or cardiac injury assessed at 48-hours and adjudicated by an Independent Safety Board (ISB). A pre-specified performance goal for success was defined as achieving an upper one-sided 97.5% CI bound <15.0%.

Study Results

Primary and secondary safety endpoints were analyzed using the ITT population (n=109). The primary efficacy endpoint was analyzed using the modified intent to treat (mITT) population (N=106), excluding subjects who received thrombolytics or other adjunctive therapies within 48 hours. Of the 106 subjects in the mITT population, 102 subjects had paired baseline and 48-hour RV/LV measurements adjudicated by the core-lab and were included in the primary analysis (N=102).

The primary efficacy endpoint was the mean reduction in RV/LV between baseline and 48 hours post-procedure, as assessed by the independent imaging core-lab using CTA (Table 2). The mean reduction in RV/LV was 0.44 with a lower one-sided 97.5% confidence bound of 0.36 and

a p-value <0.001, demonstrating the pre-specified performance goal of >0.20 for the lower confidence bound was met by a wide margin.

The primary safety endpoint was adjudicated by the Independent Safety Board (ISB) and was the 48-hour Major Adverse Events (MAE) rate, a composite of all-cause major bleeding within 48-hours, device-related death within 48-hours and device-related SAEs within 48-hours (including clinical deterioration, pulmonary vascular injury and cardiac injury).

The observed 48-hour MAE rate was 0.9% (1/109) with an upper one-sided 97.5% confidence bound of 5.7% and a p-value <0.001, demonstrating the pre-specified performance goal of <15.0% for the upper confidence bound was met by a wide margin (Table 3).

Secondary safety endpoints included mortality which occurred in 0.0% at both 48-hours (0/109) and 30-day follow-up (0/108). The rate of device-related SAEs (clinical deterioration, pulmonary injury, or cardiac injury) was 0.0% (0/109). Symptomatic PE recurrence occurred in 2.8% (3/106) of subjects and was associated with concomitant DVT in all three (3) cases, with DVT identified as the likely source of the recurrent PE in two (2) subjects (Table 4).

In total, 11% (12/109) of subjects experienced at least one serious adverse event through the last completed follow-up.

Catheter Size Sub-Group Analysis:

There were no notable differences between the 16F Symphony catheter (used in 44 subjects) and the 24F Symphony catheter (used in 101 subjects). Both sized devices were used together in 36 procedures, and the analyzed sub-groups were not mutually exclusive. While the study was not powered to independently test the primary efficacy and safety endpoints in the catheter size sub-groups, the pre-specified performance goals were met in both the 24F and 16F sub-groups.

Conclusion

The SYMPHONY-PE clinical study demonstrated that the Symphony Thrombectomy System showed substantially equivalent safety and effectiveness outcomes for acute PE. The primary efficacy and safety endpoints were met.

XIII. CONCLUSIONS

Where differences were identified between the subject and predicate devices, a risk assessment was completed to determine if the differences would result in new questions of safety or effectiveness. As appropriate, previous bench and laboratory testing were evaluated for applicability and either the rationale for no impact was documented or verification and validation was repeated as required.

Based on the results of the risk assessments and associated bench and laboratory testing, the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent and there are no new questions of safety or effectiveness. The subject and predicate devices have the same product codes, basic

technological characteristics such as components, design, materials, sterilization method, and operating principles as the predicate devices. Performance data demonstrates that the device functions as intended.

Based on the non-clinical, pre-clinical, and clinical data presented above, the subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent and there are no new questions of safety and/or effectiveness.
