Intended Use
The Apex HCLA Acetabular Cup Liners are intended for use with the Apex Modular™ Acetabular Cup, in combination with the Apex Modular, Apex K2™, or Apex K1™ Hip Stem in total hip replacement procedures. The acetabular cup liners are intended to articulate with a metal (cobalt chromium) or ceramic (alumina) femoral head. This prosthesis is intended for single use implantation, and may be used for the following conditions, as appropriate: - Non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease, including osteoarthritis and . avascular necrosis; - Rheumatoid arthritis; . - Correction of functional deformity; ● - Congenital dislocation: . - Revision procedures where other treatments or devices have failed, ◆ - Femoral neck and trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur.
Device Story
Apex HCLA Acetabular Cup Liners are orthopedic implants for total hip replacement; used with Apex Modular Acetabular Cup and compatible hip stems. Liners articulate with 28mm cobalt chromium or alumina ceramic femoral heads. Device implanted by orthopedic surgeons in clinical/hospital settings. Compression-molded, cross-linked, stabilized UHMWPE construction provides wear resistance. Locking mechanism utilizes 19° taper and PE locking ring for secure shell engagement. Single-use device; provides stable bearing surface for hip joint; restores joint function; reduces pain for patients with degenerative or traumatic hip conditions.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Compression-molded, cross-linked, stabilized UHMWPE. 28mm inner diameter. 19° taper and PE locking ring mechanism. Sterilized via ethylene oxide. Designed for cementless fixation in metal shells.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients undergoing total hip replacement requiring cementless acetabular fixation. Conditions include non-inflammatory degenerative joint disease (osteoarthritis, avascular necrosis), rheumatoid arthritis, functional deformity, congenital dislocation, revision procedures, and femoral neck or trochanteric fractures of the proximal femur.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A hip joint metal/polymer/metal semi-constrained porous-coated uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. The device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across the joint. This generic type of device has a femoral component made of a cobalt-chromium-molybdenum (Co-Cr-Mo) alloy or a titanium-aluminum-vanadium (Ti-6Al-4V) alloy and an acetabular component composed of an ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene articulating bearing surface fixed in a metal shell made of Co-Cr-Mo or Ti-6Al-4V. The femoral stem and acetabular shell have a porous coating made of, in the case of Co-Cr-Mo substrates, beads of the same alloy, and in the case of Ti-6Al-4V substrates, fibers of commercially pure titanium or Ti-6Al-4V alloy. The porous coating has a volume porosity between 30 and 70 percent, an average pore size between 100 and 1,000 microns, interconnecting porosity, and a porous coating thickness between 500 and 1,500 microns. The generic type of device has a design to achieve biological fixation to bone without the use of bone cement.

### 5. Predicate Device Comparison
Substantial equivalence' is claimed to the DePuy Marathon™ Cross-Linked Polyethylene Acetabular Cup Liners (K994415, K010171, and K033273). The following table summarizes the similarities and differences between the subject Apex HCLA™ Acetabular Cup Liners and the predicate DePuy Marathon™ Acetabular Cup Liners:

*Minimum thickness values for Apex HCLA and Apex Modular liners account for manufacturing tolerances; minimum thickness for DePuy Marathon liners is based on published product literature.
The Apex Modular HCLA Acetabular Cup Liners described in this submission are substantially equivalent to the predicate devices based on similarities in design, intended use, material and manufacturing methods. The locking mechanism is similar to intended use, material one one pinnacle liners, and identical to the locking mechanism in the Apex Modular UHMWPE liners (K031110). While the UHMWPE in the Apex Modular liners was not crosslinked, the cross-linked UHMWPE of the subject device is Moddlar infors woo not crosslinked UHMWPE of the predicate DePuy Marathon™ liners.
