The summary describes radioactive seeds for brachytherapy and does not mention any computational or algorithmic components, let alone AI/ML.
Yes
The device is used to treat cancer by delivering radiation, which is a therapeutic intervention.
No
The device, BT-125-2 seeds, is used to deliver radiation for brachytherapy in the treatment of cancer. Its purpose is therapeutic (treatment), not diagnostic (identifying a condition).
No
The device description explicitly states "PharmaSeed Model BT-125-2," which are physical seeds used for brachytherapy, indicating a hardware component. The intended use also describes delivering radiation via these seeds.
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 the device is used to "deliver radiation for brachytherapy in the treatment of cancer with sources in close proximity to, or within, the tumor." This describes a therapeutic intervention, not a diagnostic test performed on samples taken from the body.
- Device Description: The device is described as "PharmaSeed Model BT-125-2," which are seeds designed for implantation. This is consistent with a therapeutic device, not a diagnostic one.
- Lack of IVD Characteristics: The description does not mention any of the typical characteristics of an IVD, such as:
- Analyzing samples (blood, urine, tissue, etc.)
- Detecting or measuring substances in samples
- Providing information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening
In summary, the BT-125-2 seeds are a therapeutic device used for delivering radiation directly to a tumor, which falls outside the definition of an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Intended Use / Indications for Use
The intended use of Syncor Pharmaceuticals' BT-125-2 seeds is to deliver radiation for brachytherapy in the treatment of cancer with sources in close proximity to, or within, the tumor.
These seeds are indicated for permanent interstitial treatment of tumors which are localized and unresectable, and which have a slow growth rate and low to moderate radiosensitivity. Superficial, intrathoracic, and intraabdominal tumors, such as those in the head, neck, lungs, pancreas and prostate are commonly treated in this manner. The seeds may also be implanted in recurrent tumors or in residual tumors following completion of a course of external radiation therapy.
Total activity of BT-125-2 seeds required for treatment is dependent upon the tumor volume and the radiation history of the site. To calculate the total activity needed, determine the placement of the sources in the tissue, and evaluate the dose distribution achieved, established practice should be followed.

§ 892.5730 Radionuclide brachytherapy source.
(a)
Identification. A radionuclide brachytherapy source is a device that consists of a radionuclide which may be enclosed in a sealed container made of gold, titanium, stainless steel, or platinum and intended for medical purposes to be placed onto a body surface or into a body cavity or tissue as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy.(b)
Classification. Class II (special controls). A prostate seeding kit intended for use with a radionuclide brachytherapy source only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.
