| Submission Type | Traditional |
| Regulation | 21 CFR 888.3045 |
| Device Class | Class 2 |
Intended Use
TriPore HA, TriPore BP90 and TriPore BP15 is intended to be packed into bone defects of the skeletal system (extremities, spine or pelvis) which are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created voids or from traumatic injury to the bone. This device can also be used for maxillofacial surgery for the reconstruction of the facial skeleton. The device gradually resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. Rigid fixation techniques should be used in conjunction with this device.
Device Story
TriPore HA, BP90, and BP15 are synthetic, porous bone void fillers. TriPore HA consists of pure hydroxylapatite; TriPore BP90 and BP15 are biphasic mixtures of tricalcium phosphate and hydroxylapatite. The device features an interconnected porous structure (macropores, midipores, microspaces) designed to promote bone ingrowth. Available in various block shapes and granule sizes. Used by surgeons in orthopedic and maxillofacial procedures to fill non-structural bone voids. The material is resorbable, gradually replaced by natural bone during the healing process. Must be used with rigid fixation techniques.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data provided. Evidence consists of bench testing (chemical composition) and animal studies comparing TriPore to the predicate. Animal study results at 24 weeks showed TriPore implants had greater structural integrity with interconnecting walls and bone present within macro, midi, and micro pores.
Technological Characteristics
Resorbable calcium salt bone void filler. Materials: Hydroxylapatite (HA) and/or tricalcium phosphate (TCP). Structure: Interconnected porosity (macropores 100µm-2mm, midipores 10-100µm, microspaces 1-10µm). Form factor: Blocks (D-shaped, cuboid) and granules. Complies with Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Devices.
Indications for Use
Indicated for packing bone defects in the skeletal system (extremities, spine, pelvis) or maxillofacial surgery for facial skeleton reconstruction. Defects must not be intrinsic to bony stability. For use in surgically created voids or traumatic bone injuries. Requires rigid fixation.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A resorbable calcium salt bone void filler device is a resorbable implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the extremities, spine, and pelvis that are caused by trauma or surgery and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure.
Special Controls
*Classification.* Class II (special controls). The special control for this device is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance: Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device; Guidance for Industry and FDA.” See § 888.1(e) of this chapter for the availability of this guidance.

| Device Description | TriPore HA is pure hydroxylapatite bone void filler, with<br>a highly porous structure comprising three types of<br>porosity which are interconnected: macropores (100<br>µm to 1-2mm), midipores (10-100 µm) and microspaces<br>(1-10 µm).<br>TriPore BP90 and TriPore BP15 are a biphasic<br>tricalcium phosphate:hydroxylapatite. The (X)<br>designates the nominal hydroxyapatite composition of<br>the mixture. TriPore BP bone void filler has the same<br>structure as TriPore HA.<br>TriPore (HA or BP) is available in Blocks (D-shaped,<br>cuboid and other shapes) and Granules (four different<br>sizes) |
| Intended Use | TriPore HA, TriPore BP90 and TriPore BP15 is intended to be packed into bone defects of the skeletal system (extremities, spine or pelvis) which are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. These defects may be surgically created voids or from traumatic injury to the bone. This device can also be used for maxillofacial surgery for the reconstruction of the facial skeleton. The device gradually resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. Rigid fixation techniques should be used in conjunction with this device. |
| Technical Characteristics<br>and Substantial<br>Equivalence | Both the predicate device, Vitoss and TriPore (HA and BP) share similar characteristics in that they are both calcium salt bone void fillers covered by 'Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device" (FDA Guidance Document 855, dated June 2, 2003). Both have a porous structure which promotes bone ingrowth. They are available in blocks or granules (TriPore) and morsels (Vitoss). They differ from each other in two main aspects:<br>1) the pore size and distribution<br>2) the material - Vitoss is manufactured from pure tricalcium phosphate. TriPore HA is manufactured from pure hydroxylapatite. TriPore BP is manufactured from a mixture of pure tricalcium phosphate and pure hydroxylapatite. |
| Determination of<br>substantial equivalence<br>(non-clinical data) | Orthogem has determined that TriPore is substantially equivalent to the predicate device on the basis of chemical composition tests on both devices as prescribed in the 'Class II Special Controls Guidance Document' referenced above.<br>Secondly, TriPore itself complies with the requirements of the Special Controls Document referred to above. |
| Determination of<br>substantial equivalence<br>(animal data) | Animal studies making direct comparison against the predicate device concluded that at 24 weeks implant, TriPore implants were structurally more integral with interconnecting walls and bone present within the macro pores, midi pores and micro spaces. |
| Conclusions | Orthogem concludes that the non-clinical and animal tests discussed above demonstrate that TriPore is safe, effective and performs as well as or better than the predicate device. |
| Other information deemed<br>necessary by the FDA | None more than that required by 'Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device" (FDA Guidance Document 855, dated June 2, 2003) |

Dear Mr. Ruston:
We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food. Drug. and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.
Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies.
