Intended Use

The COALITION® Spacer is a stand-alone interbody fusion device intended for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine (C2-T1) at one level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (6) weeks of nonoperative treatment. The COALITION® Spacer is to be filled with autogenous bone graft material, and is to be used with two titanium alloy screws which accompany the implant.

Device Story

COALITION® Spacer is a stand-alone cervical interbody fusion device; provides structural stability post-discectomy. Device features radiolucent polymer body with titanium alloy or tantalum markers; superior/inferior surface protrusions grip vertebral endplates to resist expulsion. Implant filled with autogenous bone graft; secured to adjacent vertebrae via two titanium alloy screws inserted through anterior titanium portion. Used in clinical settings by surgeons; provides mechanical stabilization to facilitate fusion. Benefits patients by restoring disc space height and promoting bony fixation in DDD cases.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical testing included static and dynamic compression, static and dynamic compression-shear, and expulsion testing conducted in accordance with ASTM F2077 and the Class II Special Controls Guidance Document for Intervertebral Fusion Devices.

Technological Characteristics

Materials: Radiolucent polymer, titanium alloy (ASTM F136, F1295), tantalum markers (ASTM F560). Design: Stand-alone interbody spacer with integrated screw fixation. Dimensions: Various heights/geometries. Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for skeletally mature patients with one-level cervical (C2-T1) degenerative disc disease (DDD) presenting with discogenic pain confirmed by history and radiography, following at least 6 weeks of failed nonoperative 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.

Device Name: COALITION® Spacer

Classification: Per 21 CFR as follows: §888.3080 Intervertebral Body Fusion Devices. Product Code OVE. Requlatory Class II. Panel Code: 87.

COALITION® Spacer (K083389) Predicate(s): Synthes® Zero-P (K112459)

#### Purpose:

The purpose of this submission is to request clearance for additional sizes of COALITION® Spacers.

#### Device Description:

The COALITION® Spacer is a stand-alone cervical interbody fusion device used to provide structural stability in skeletally mature individuals following discectorny. The spacers are available in various heights and geometric options to fit the anatomical needs of a wide variety of patients. Protrusions on the superior and inferior surfaces of each device grip the endplates of the adjacent vertebrae to aid in expulsion resistance. Screws are inserted through the anterior titanium portion of the implant into adjacent vertebral bodies for bony fixation. The spacer is to be filled with autogenous bone graft material.

The COALITION® Spacer is made from radiolucent polymer, with titanium alloy or tantalum markers, as specified in ASTM F2026, F136, F1295, and F560. The anterior portion of the implant and the mating screws are manufactured from titanium alloy, as specified in ASTM F136 and F1295.

#### Intended Use:

The COALITION® Spacer is a stand-alone interbody fusion device intended for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine (C2-T1) at one level. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These

patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (6) weeks of nonoperative treatment. The COALITION® Spacer is to be filled with autogenous bone graft material, and is to be used with two titanium alloy screws which accompany the implant.

#### Technological Characteristics:

The technological characteristics of the additional COALITION® Spacer are similar to the predicate devices in terms of design, dimensions, intended use, materials, and performance characteristics.

#### Performance Data:

Mechanical testing consisting of static and dynamic compression, static and dynamic compression-shear, and expulsion was conducted in accordance with "Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Fusion Device," June 12, 2007, and ASTM F2077 to demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate systems.

#### Basis for Substantial Equivalence:

The COALITION® Spacer additional implants are similar to the predicate systems with respect to technical characteristics, performance and intended use. The information provided within this premarket notification supports substantial equivalence of the subject spacers to the predicate devices.
