Indications for Use

StemPro® MSC SFM Medium is a liquid tissue culture media product intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications.

Device Story

StemPro® MSC SFM Medium is a chemically defined, serum-free liquid tissue culture medium consisting of a basal medium and a supplement. It is used in laboratory settings by trained personnel for the ex vivo expansion and maintenance of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). The medium supports cell growth and expansion over multiple passages while preserving the multipotential phenotype of the MSCs, allowing for subsequent differentiation into osteogenic, chondrogenic, or adipogenic lineages. It provides a consistent, controlled environment for cell culture compared to traditional serum-supplemented media. The product is aseptically processed and manufactured under quality system regulations to ensure purity and biocompatibility.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evidence includes performance assays demonstrating support of human MSC growth and maintenance, Limulus Ameobocyte (LAL) testing for endotoxin/pyrogen levels (USP <85>), and validation of aseptic processing to achieve a Sterility Assurance Level (SAL) ≥ 10^-3. Stability testing confirmed a 12-month shelf life at 2°–8°C, verifying pH stability and lack of cytotoxicity.

Technological Characteristics

Serum-free, chemically defined liquid medium consisting of basal medium and supplement. Manufactured in accordance with QSR requirements. Aseptically processed. Tested for chemical purity using USP, ACS, FCC, GIBCO, or cell culture requirements. Biocompatible with human cells.

Indications for Use

Indicated for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications to support the growth or maintenance of human tissue or cells in culture.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

Tissue culture media for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications consist of cell and tissue culture media and components that are composed of chemically defined components (e.g., amino acids, vitamins, inorganic salts) that are essential for the ex vivo development, survival, and maintenance of tissues and cells of human origin. The solutions are indicated for use in human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls): FDA guidance document, “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Culture Media for Human Ex Vivo Processing Applications; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers.”

- A. These tissue culture products (StemPro® MSC SFM and Knockout™ SR Medium) are used for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications and have the same principles of operation, technological characteristics, efficacy (generic cellular growth and maintenance) and safety (consistency in chemical content and formulation, biocompatibility with cells. and purity). :
. .

# Intended Uses

StemPro® MSC SFM Medium is a tissue culture product intended for human ex vivo tissue and cell culture processing applications. This device is a chemically defined tissue culture media used to support the growth or maintenance of human tissue or cells in culture.

# B. Principles of Operation and Technological Characteristics

StemPro® MSC SFM is a serum-free medium (SFM) specially formulated for the growth and expansion of human mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). StemPro® MSC SFM enables human MSC growth and increased consistency compared to classical serum-supplemented medium. In addition, human MSCs can be expanded for multiple passages while maintaining their multipotential phenotype (i.e. ability to differentiate into osteogenic, chondrogenic, adipogenic lineages). StemPro® MSC SFM contains two components: StemPro® MSC SFM Basal Medium and StemPro® MSC SFM Supplement.

## C. Pre-Clinical Testing ..

Performance standards under Section 514 of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act have been established in Guidance Document "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Tissue Culture Media for Human Ex Vivo Tissue and Cell Culture Processing Applications; Final Guidance for Industry and FDA Reviewers," issued May 16, 2001. The specific assay tests and Life Technologies Corporation's equivalent tests are described below in greater detail.

# Stability/Shelf-Life - -

Life Technologies Corporation performs shelf life testing for StemPro® MSC SFM Medium using retained product stored at 2° - 8° C. In addition, a minimum of one new production lot of StemPro® MSC SFM Medium is tested each year to verify that the product continues to meet the established shelf life. Based on analysis of product performance over time, Life Technologies Corporation has established a shelf life of twelve months for the StemPro® MSC SFM Medium formulation. Stability testing involves the assessment of these functional aspects of media, including demonstrating: (1) that the pH continues to meet specifications; and (2) the media is not cytotoxic and supports the growth of mammalian cells. The pH is tested to demonstrate that the media is not chemically altered during its storage. In assessing cytoxicity, Life Technologies Corporation demonstrates that the media functions in supporting the growth of mammalian cells and that the media does not become toxic to mammalian cells during storage.

In addition, results from the studies indicate the container/closure system provides protection from microbial.contamination.
