Intended Use
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the lumbar spine, from L2 to SI, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment. The device is intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device system is designed for use with supplemental fixation and with autograft to facilitate fusion.
Device Story
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is a spinal implant designed for intervertebral body fusion via a lateral surgical approach. The device is implanted by a surgeon in an operating room setting to treat degenerative disc disease. It acts as a structural spacer to facilitate fusion when used with autograft and supplemental fixation. The system is offered in various configurations to accommodate patient anatomy. The device does not involve electronic inputs, software, or automated processing; it is a mechanical implant.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing, specifically Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and projected area calculations, which were validated using mechanical test data from the predicate system.
Technological Characteristics
Implant components are manufactured from polyether ether ketone (PEEK Optima LT) conforming to ASTM F2026. Tantalum markers conforming to ASTM F560 are included for radiographic visualization. The device is a mechanical interbody spacer designed for lateral lumbar insertion.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1, including up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, following six months of failed non-operative treatment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
*Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

#### DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE SUBJECT TO PREMARKET NOTIFICATION:
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System will be offered in various device configurations based on surgical approach and patient anatomy, and consist of a Genesys Spine lumbar interbody fusion device, which may be implanted as a single device via a lateral approach.
#### INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the lumbar spine, from L2 to SI, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment. The device is intended for use at either one level or two contiguous levels for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device system is designed for use with supplemental fixation and with autograft to facilitate fusion.
{1}------------------------------------------------
#### TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
The Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is comprised of various device configurations designed to accommodate patient anatomy and provide the surgeon with different surgical approach options.
The Genesys Spine Interbody Fusion System implant components are made of polyether ether ketone (Invibio PEEK Optima LT)) that conforms to ASTM F2026. Additionally, the devices contain tantalum markers (ASTM F560) to assist the surgeon with proper placement of the device. The additional implant offering being proposed has similar technological characteristics and identical indications as the currently cleared product line.
#### PERFORMANCE DATA
Not Required. FEA analysis and projected area calculations show that a new worst-case device was not created. This analysis tool was validated (calibrated) by the predicate system's mechanical test data and is sufficient to allow for a substantial equivalence designation for the subject device. In addition, the length, width, and height of the Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System implants fall within the scope of devices already cleared per K103034.
#### CONCLUSION
The overall technology characteristics and mechanical performance data lead to the conclusion that Genesys Spine Apache™ Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion System is substantially equivalent to the Genesys Spine Apache™ Lumbar Interbody System
