Device Story

XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System (Model AL8000) is a self-contained, compact UVB laser light source. It utilizes a XeCl gas mixture to generate monochromatic 308nm UVB light. System components include a touch-screen display, fiberoptic cable, handpiece, and foot-switch. Operated by clinicians in a clinical setting, the device delivers an operator-selected dose of targeted ultraviolet light to skin lesions. The laser is housed in a protective interlocked enclosure and powered by standard AC wall outlets. By delivering precise, dose-controlled phototherapy, the device assists in the treatment of specific dermatological conditions, offering improved ergonomics and reduced maintenance compared to previous models.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided. The manufacturer states that the device performs in an identical manner to previously cleared predicate devices and that duplicative clinical data is not required.

Technological Characteristics

XeCl excimer laser source; monochromatic 308nm UVB output; fiberoptic delivery with handpiece; touch-screen interface; AC power; interlocked protective housing. Complies with EN 60601 series, UL 2601-1/UL60601-1, and 21 CFR 1040.10/1040.11. Risk management per EN ISO 14971.

DEVICE DESCRIPTION The XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System Model AL8000 is a complete self-contained compact UVB laser light source, which utilizes a XeCl gas mixture to generate an operator selected dose and target-specific ultraviolet light at monochromatic operater services ann. The laser system consists of a touch-screen display, an advanced fiberoptic cable attached to a handpiece, and a foot-switch to initiate exposure. The laser is enclosed in a protective interlocked housing. The unit is designed to operate on standard AC power available from wall outlets and can accommodate US, European and other nominal supply voltages and operating frequencies. #### 5. INTENDED USE The intended use is targeted UVB phototherapy for treatment of the skin conditions including psoriasis, vitiligo, atopic dermatitis, and leukoderma. ## 6. SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE The application of the Excimer Laser phototherapy has been proven to be substantially equivalent to current legally marketed devices in the treatment of indications previously cleared by CDRH (ODE). PhotoMedex has been granted mercently provised 1 1 K003705, K011382, K020847, and K031451 for this method of phototherapy generation. The intended use for the PhotoMedex XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System, Model AL8000, and the identified predicate devices are identical in that they are all excimer lasers used to produce monochromatic (308nm) UVB light for the purpose of targeted, dose controlled UVB (dermatological) phototherapy. The differences between the XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System Model AL8000, and the identified predicates are limited to a reduction in product size and weight, improved ergonomics for the user, enhanced operating parameters, and additional minor internal improvements to reduce (required) maintenance costs. We believe the inclusion of these features does not affect the device's safety or intended use as compared to the identified predicates. ## 7. CLINICAL PERFORMANCE TESTING All clinical indications requested in this application have been previously cleared in the identified predicate devices. The XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System Model AL8000 does not introduce any new indications for use, and will perform in an identical manner as the identified predicates, therefore PhotoMedex believes duplicative clinical data is not required as a condition of granting market clearance for the XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System Model AL8000. {2}------------------------------------------------ ## 8. PRODUCT PERFORMANCE TESTING Testing and certification relevant to the XTRAC XL² Excimer Laser System Model I coung and certificance to current applicable international EN 60601 series of standards, 21 CFR Part 1040.10 & 1040.11 Performance Standards for Light-Emitting Products and also includes UL 2601-1/UL60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment classified device. Products are produced and distributed within a facility that has been registered by FDA to manufacture medical devices. The XTRAC XL2 Excimer Laser System Model AL8000 also is reviewed for risk management utilizing EN ISO 1497, Application of risk management to medical devices ensuring all aspects of the device are reviewed for potential hazards. #### 9. CONCLUSIONS PhotoMedex believes the XTRAC XL² Excimer Laser System Model AL8000 is substantially equivalent to the identified predicates in that it does not introduce any new issues of safety or efficiency as compared to the predicates. The Indications for use, methods of operation and power source is identical to the predicate. {3}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/3/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
