Intended Use

Vitoss Scaffold Synthetic Cancellous Bone Void Filler is intended only for use, as a bone void filler for voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. Vitoss Scaffold is indicated for use in the treatment of surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. Vitoss Scaffold should not be used to treat large defects that in the surgeon's opinion would fail to heal spontaneously.

Vitoss Scaffold is intended to be gently packed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., the extremities, spine and pelvis). Following placement in the bony void or gap, the calcium phosphate scaffold resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Device Description

Vitoss Scaffold is a porous calcium phosphate resorbable bone void filler for the repair of bony defects. It is an osteoconductive porous implant with a trabecular structure that resembles the multidirectional interconnected porosity of human cancellous bone. Pore diameters in the scaffold range from 1 um to 1000 µm (1 mm). The implant is provided sterile in block and morsel forms.

Vitoss Scaffold guides the three-dimensional regeneration of bone in the defect site into which it is implanted. When Vitoss Scaffold is placed in direct contact with viable host bone, new bone grows in apposition to the calcium phosphate surfaces of the implant. As the implant resorbs, bone and other connective tissues grow into the space previously occupied by the scaffold. Results from animal studies demonstrate that eighty percent of Vitoss Scaffold is resorbed within twelve weeks.

AI/ML Overview

The provided text describes a 510(k) summary for the "Vitoss™ Scaffold Synthetic Cancellous Bone Void Filler" and its comparison to a predicate device, Pro Osteon 500R. The submission focuses on demonstrating substantial equivalence to the predicate device, not on meeting specific, quantitative acceptance criteria through a standalone study with a device performance table, as might be done for an AI/software device. Hence, most of the requested information regarding acceptance criteria, sample sizes, expert involvement, and ground truth for a study is not present in this document.

Here's an analysis of what information is available from the text in relation to your request:

1. A table of acceptance criteria and the reported device performance

The document does not explicitly state quantitative "acceptance criteria" in the format of a performance table with specific thresholds that the new device must meet to be considered "accepted." Instead, it presents a comparison to a predicate device (Pro Osteon 500R) across various characteristics, implying that performance comparable to or better than the predicate is the criterion for substantial equivalence.

Comparison to Predicate (Vitoss Scaffold vs. Pro Osteon 500R):

The "study" proving the device meets the "acceptance criteria" (which is substantial equivalence to the predicate) is the Non-clinical Performance Data.

2. Sample size used for the test set and the data provenance (e.g. country of origin of the data, retrospective or prospective)

The document refers to "Pre-clinical animal data" and "Results from animal studies" to demonstrate performance characteristics like resorption and bone ingrowth.

  • Sample size: Not specified.
  • Data provenance: "Animal studies." No country of origin is mentioned. These would be prospective animal studies.

The document also refers to "clinical practice for more than 25 years" and "dentistry and oral reconstructive surgery" and "orthopedic problems" for calcium-based ceramic materials in general, and a "review of FDA's Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience Database (MAUDE), conducted on 12/13/1999" regarding the predicate device (Pro Osteon 500R) and other devices with product code MQV.

  • Sample size: Not specified for the historical clinical data. MAUDE review would cover any reported incidence but not a specific study size.
  • Data provenance: Historical clinical data (likely worldwide, though not specified) and the MAUDE database (US data). This would be retrospective for the MAUDE review and general clinical use.

3. Number of experts used to establish the ground truth for the test set and the qualifications of those experts (e.g. radiologist with 10 years of experience)

This information is not provided in the document. The "ground truth" for the animal studies would likely involve histological analysis or other objective measurements in the animals, not human expert interpretation in the way one might evaluate an AI diagnostic device.

4. Adjudication method (e.g. 2+1, 3+1, none) for the test set

This information is not provided as it's not applicable to the type of pre-clinical animal studies or MAUDE database review described.

5. If a multi reader multi case (MRMC) comparative effectiveness study was done, If so, what was the effect size of how much human readers improve with AI vs without AI assistance

  • No MRMC comparative effectiveness study was done. This is a medical device (bone void filler), not an AI/software diagnostic tool.

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

  • No standalone algorithm performance study was done. This is a medical device, not an algorithm.

7. The type of ground truth used (expert consensus, pathology, outcomes data, etc)

For the animal studies:

  • Ground Truth Type: Likely objective measurements of bone ingrowth, resorption rates, and tissue integration, probably based on histological analysis or imaging (e.g., X-rays, micro-CT) of the animal models. The document mentions "bone growth," "bone ingrowth," and "bone remodeling."

For the MAUDE database review:

  • Ground Truth Type: Real-world adverse event reports.

8. The sample size for the training set

This information is not applicable as this is not an AI/machine learning device requiring a training set.

9. How the ground truth for the training set was established

This information is not applicable as this is not an AI/machine learning device.

Summary of S & E Vitoss Scaffold Orthovita, Inc.

Non-clinical Performance Data:

Pre-clinical animal data demonstrate that Vitoss Scaffold supports bone growth into a metaphyseal defect. These data show that Vitoss Scaffold resorbs at an early time period, accompanied by early bone ingrowth and bone remodeling. These results, in conjunction with biocompatibility data, demonstrate that Vitoss Scaffold Bone Void Filler is as safe and as effective as the predicate device, Pro Osteon 500R.

Clinical Performance Data:

Calcium-based ceramic materials, including tricalcium phosphate, have been used in clinical practice for more than 25 years with no remarkable safety issues. Early successful results were achieved in dentistry and oral reconstructive surgery. Subsequently, successful results have been demonstrated in the treatment of many orthopedic problems, including filling defects secondary to trauma, benign turnors and cysts, and the filling of metaphyseal defects of long bones.

In terms of safety, calcium-based bone void fillers have the advantage of avoiding the potential morbidity associated with the harvesting of bone autografts and the potential for disease transmission by allografts. To date there have been no reports in the literature of adverse reactions to calcium-based ceramic materials. A review of FDA's Manufacturer and User Facility Device Experience Database (MAUDE), conducted on 12/13/1999, showed no records of adverse device experience with Pro Osteon 500R, the device to which Vitoss Scaffold claims substantial equivalence. Only two records were found reported for all devices with the product code MQV. These two records were for Wright Medical's product, Osteoset, the device to which Pro Osteon 500R was determined to be substantially equivalent. This confirms the continued safe use of the bone void fillers currently in commercial distribution.
