Indications for Use
The SkinDisc™ Wound System is designed to be used at point-of-care for the safe and rapid preparation of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and platelet poor plasma (PPP), from a small sample of a patient's own peripheral blood. Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, the SkinDisc™ is topically applied for the management of exuding cutaneous wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers and diabetic ulcers, and mechanically or surgically debrided wounds.
Device Story
Point-of-care system for autologous platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and platelet-poor plasma (PPP) preparation; utilizes patient's peripheral blood; blood processed via density-based separation in table-top swinging bucket centrifuge; kit includes Plasmax Plasma Concentrator, GPS III Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit, ACD-A, and accessories; clinician combines prepared PRP/PPP with exogenous Calcium Chloride Thrombin (not supplied) to create wound dressing; applied topically by healthcare professional to exuding cutaneous wounds; facilitates wound management; benefits include accelerated healing and closure of chronic wounds.
Clinical Evidence
Single-center, open-label, randomized controlled trial (n=19) comparing SkinDisc to standard of care (SOC) for diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). 10 subjects in SkinDisc group, 9 in SOC. Results at 12 weeks: 100% DFU size reduction in SkinDisc group vs 49.2% in SOC. Average closure time 8.5 weeks for SkinDisc; only 1 patient achieved closure in SOC group by 12 weeks. No treatment-related adverse events reported.
Technological Characteristics
System components include medical grade polymer tubes, Plasmax Plasma Concentrator, and GPS III Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit. Operates via density-based separation using a swinging bucket centrifuge (3200 rpm for 15 mins). Requires external Calcium Chloride Thrombin. Biocompatibility per ISO-10993. Single-use, sterile kit assembly.
Indications for Use
Indicated for management of exuding cutaneous wounds, including leg, pressure, and diabetic ulcers, and mechanically or surgically debrided wounds in patients requiring autologous PRP/PPP topical application.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An automated blood cell separator is a device that uses a centrifugal or filtration separation principle to automatically withdraw whole blood from a donor, separate the whole blood into blood components, collect one or more of the blood components, and return to the donor the remainder of the whole blood and blood components. The automated blood cell separator device is intended for routine collection of blood and blood components for transfusion or further manufacturing use.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is a guidance for industry and FDA staff entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Automated Blood Cell Separator Device Operating by Centrifugal or Filtration Separation Principle.”

# **Description of Device:**
SkinDisc™ and SkinDisc™ Lite– Wound Systems are single use medical devices used to rapidly prepare a platelet rich plasma (PRP) and platelet poor plasma (PPP) from a small volume of the patient's own peripheral blood that is drawn at the time of treatment. The device kit consists of a disposable separator and accessories to be used with a table-top, swinging bucket centrifuge.
The PRP and PPP are obtained by density using the Zimmer-Biomet centrifuge, according to centrifuge operating instructions. Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, PRP and PPP are prepared and combined with commercially available Calcium Chloride Thrombin (not supplied in the kit) to produce (SkinDisc™/SkinDisc™Lite) which are suitable for the management of exuding cutaneous wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers, and diabetic ulcers, and mechanically or surgically debrided wounds.
The SkinDisc™ Wound System contains a Plasmax Plus Plasma Concentrator (60ml), a GPS® III Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit, ACD-A and blood draw components. 60ml of blood produces approximately ~26 ml of SkinDisc for use in the treatment of wounds.
The SkinDisc™ Lite – Wound System contains a Plasmax Plasma Concentrator (30ml), a GPS® III Mini Platelet Concentrate Separation Kit, ACD-A and blood draw components. 30ml of blood produces approximately ~13 ml of SkinDisc for use in the treatment of wounds.
# **Intended Use/Indications For Use:**
The SkinDisc™ Wound System is designed to be used at point-of-care for the safe and rapid preparation of platelet rich plasma (PRP) and platelet poor plasma (PPP), from a small sample of a patient's own peripheral blood. Under the supervision of a healthcare professional, the SkinDisc™ is topically applied for the management of exuding cutaneous wounds, such as leg ulcers, pressure ulcers and diabetic ulcers, and mechanically or surgically debrided wounds.
# **Comparison of Technological Characteristics:**
SkinDisc™ Wound Systems and the predicate device are both designed for the preparation of PRP by simple centrifugation of a small sample of the patient's own blood. The subject and predicate devices are substantially equivalent based on the following similar technological elements:
- All are used at the patients point of care to separate and prepare autologous blood, blood fractions in a single procedure to be used clinically
- All separate blood/blood components by centrifugation/density.
- Similar blood volumes are used/Similar blood component gel volumes produced.
- All are based on phlebotomy with the provided blood collection set.
- Liquid PRP collection)
- PRP gel that is used as a wound management dressing
- Same indications for use statements.

## Summary of Non-Clinical Testing and Risk Analysis:
### Biocompatibility Testing:
Various studies were conducted in accordance with the FDA guidance “Use of International Standard ISO-10993, ‘Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing”. The battery of testing included the following tests:
- Cytotoxicity
- Sensitization
- Irritation
- Acute Systemic toxicity
- Hemocompatibility
- Rabbit Pyrogen study
The components of SkinDisc™ Systems are considered blood contacting (either circulating blood or indirect blood path) for a duration of less than 24 hours.
### Performance Testing:
Non-clinical bench tests to evaluate performance of the SkinDisc system was conducted, including, cell recovery efficiency (i.e., red blood cell count, white blood cell count, platelet count), moisture content, clot visual examination and clot handling characteristics. In all instances, the SkinDisc Systems worked as intended and the performances observed were as expected and considered equivalent to the performance of predicate device.
### Clinical Testing:
A summary from a single center, open label, randomized controlled clinical trial was performed and provided in this submission to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the autologous platelet gel as compared to standard of care treatment of diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). The trial enrolled subjects with type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus with one or more DFUs with a wound surface area up to 25cm²
19 subjects were treated (10 in SDL treatment Group and 9 in SOC control group).
The results of the study showed that at week 12 the DFU % reduction in ulcer size was 100% in the SkinDisc treatment group compared to 49.2% in the SOC control group. The average DFU closure time was 8.5 weeks in the SkinDisc treatment group with only 1 patient achieving closure by 12 weeks in the SOC control group. The SkinDisc device was well tolerated, with no treatment-related adverse events.

### Conclusion Regarding Substantial Equivalence:
The SkinDisc™ Systems have the same intended use, incorporate the same fundamental technology, and have similar indications for use as the predicate devices, use similar material and energy sources, and have a similar design as the predicate devices.
Based on this, Innoveren has demonstrated that the SkinDisc System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and is safe and effective for its intended use.
