The MammoSite is intended to provide brachytherapy when the physician chooses to deliver intracavitary radiation to the surgical margins following lumpectomy for breast cancer.
Device Story
MammoSite RTS is a remote-controlled radionuclide applicator system for breast brachytherapy. Device consists of a catheter shaft with an inflatable balloon at the distal end and an afterloader accessories tray. Physician implants catheter into the resected tumor cavity; balloon is inflated to position the radiation source (192Ir seed or ribbon) within the cavity. System delivers intracavitary radiation to surgical margins post-lumpectomy. Used in clinical settings by physicians to provide localized radiation therapy, potentially benefiting patients by targeting surgical margins while sparing surrounding tissue.
Clinical Evidence
Supported by a multi-center phase II clinical study involving breast cancer patients undergoing tumor resection. Study evaluated safety and effectiveness using radiological and clinical measures. Results demonstrated successful delivery of brachytherapy to surgical margins. Preclinical evidence included in vitro laboratory testing under simulated conditions, biocompatibility testing, and animal studies confirming the ability to deliver an equivalent radiation dose to existing brachytherapy applicators.
Technological Characteristics
Remote-controlled radionuclide applicator system. Components: catheter shaft with inflatable balloon, afterloader accessories. Radiation source: 192Ir seed or ribbon. Materials meet biocompatibility requirements. System is designed for intracavitary positioning of radiation sources.
Indications for Use
Indicated for breast cancer patients undergoing tumor resection (lumpectomy) requiring intracavitary radiation therapy to surgical margins.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A remote controlled radionuclide applicator system is an electromechanical or pneumatic device intended to enable an operator to apply, by remote control, a radionuclide source into the body or to the surface of the body for radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include patient and equipment supports, component parts, treatment planning computer programs, and accessories.

#### 510(k) Summary, Continued
| Device description | The MammoSite RTS is a radiation therapy system that includes the MammoSite RTS Catheter Tray and the MammoSite HDR Afterloader Accessories Tray. The MammoSite RTS Catheter Tray includes the MammoSite catheter and accessories to assist with the implantation of the catheter. The MammoSite is a catheter shaft with an inflatable balloon mounted on its distal end that positions the radiation source within the resected cavity for radiation delivery. The MammoSite Afterloader Accessories Tray contains the items needed to connect the afterloader to the MammoSite. Any device specifications that have changed as a result of the modifications to the device presented in this 510(k) have been documented in Proxima's product specifications for the MammoSite RTS. |

| Technological characteristics | The MammoSite has the same intended use, similar technological characteristics, and similar materials/dimensions of the predicate MammoSite device. The indication for use is identical to the predicate MammoSite RTS that is commercially available and is similar to the other predicate devices. Both MammoSite devices provide a means of delivering a radiation therapy in a tumor or tumor cavity. The MammoSite and brachytherapy applicators position the radioactive source for radiation therapy. The MammoSite and brachytherapy applicators utilize <sup>192</sup> Ir seed or ribbon as the radiation source with similar dosimetric properties.<br>Any differences that exist between the MammoSite RTS and the predicate device were discussed and it has been shown that these differences do not affect safety or effectiveness. It was demonstrated that the MammoSite RTS is substantially equivalent to the predicate device. |

| Preclinical studies | Extensive pre-clinical studies were performed to support the modifications to the device presented in this 510(k). Preclinical studies conducted included in vitro laboratory studies to demonstrate that the MammoSite catheter, its accessories and packaging performed as intended under simulated use and challenge conditions. Biocompatibility testing was performed to demonstrate that the materials meet the biocompatibility requirements. The dosimetry of the MammoSite was characterized. Animal studies illustrate the performance of the device, and demonstrate a clinical dose of brachytherapy can successfully be delivered. Based on these findings, it was concluded that the MammoSite RTS could deliver an equivalent radiation dose to current commercially available brachytherapy applicators. |

| Clinical studies | The multi-center phase II clinical study initially done to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the MammoSite RTS supports the changes to the device presented in this 510(k). The clinical study included breast cancer patients who were undergoing tumor resection. Assessment methods used to evaluate safety and effectiveness included radiological and clinical measures. Brachytherapy was successfully delivered to the patients. A complete clinical summary including data analysis and individual patient data was provided to FDA. The clinical study demonstrated that the MammoSite RTS provides brachytherapy when the physician chooses to deliver intracavitary radiation to the surgical margins following lumpectomy for breast cancer. |
