Intended Use
The XCage™ Interbody Fusion System is indicated for spinal intervertebral body fusion with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1, following discectomy. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment. Additionally, these patients may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). XCage™ system Spacers are intended to be used with supplemental fixation instrumentation, which has been cleared for use in the lumbar spine.
Device Story
Expandable lumbar intervertebral body fusion device; consists of PEEK shell and titanium alloy shim/core. Inserted into intervertebral space in non-expanded form; shim inserted to expand shell to desired dimensions and lock in place. Protrusions on superior/inferior surfaces grip vertebral endplates to resist expulsion. Filled with autogenous bone graft. Used in lumbar spine (L2-S1) by surgeons to restore disc height, provide anterior column support, and maintain stability to facilitate fusion. Requires supplemental fixation instrumentation. Includes reusable manual surgical instruments for delivery.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing (static/dynamic axial compression, static/dynamic compression shear, subsidence per ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267) and simulated use testing using bench and cadaveric models.
Technological Characteristics
Expandable interbody fusion spacer. Shell: PEEK (ASTM F2026) with tantalum radiographic markers (ASTM F560). Shim/Core: Titanium alloy (ASTM F136). Manual delivery instrumentation. Mechanical expansion mechanism.
Indications for Use
Indicated for spinal intervertebral body fusion with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. Includes patients with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis who have failed at least 6 months of 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.

Device Common Name: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device
Device Classification: Class II per 21 CFR 888.3080
Intervertebral Fusion Device with Bone Graft, Lumbar Classification Name:
Product Code: MAX
Purpose of Submission: To achieve premarket clearance for the XCage™ Interbody Fusion System
Predicate Device Information:
The XCage™ Interbody Fusion System is substantially equivalent to the Globus Medical, Inc. Caliber® (K102293), Globus Medical, Inc. Patriot® (K072970) and Spine Wave, Inc. StaXx® IB (K123461). All are Class II intervertebral body fusion devices per 21 CFR § 888.3080 and Classification Code MAX.
#### Description of Device:
The Ouroboros XCage™ Interbody Fusion System is an expandable lumbar intervertebral body fusion device intended for use in the lumbosacral spine from L2 to

S1 and is intended for intervertebral lumbar fusion. The XCage™ Spacer consists of a Shell and a Shim component that are offered in a range of sizes to accommodate variation in patient anatomy. The Shell component is a rectangular frame with struts on all four sides that allow for insertion into the intervertebral body space in a nonexpanded form, and subsequent expansion following the insertion of the Shim component. The Shim component has a tapered front end that inserts into and expands the Shell component to the desired vertical and horizontal dimensions. When fully inserted, the Shim locks within the Shell to provide structural stability for interbody fusion. An integrated "Core" in the Shell serves to anchor the delivery instrument during Shim insertion. Protrusions on the superior and inferior surfaces of the Spacer grip the adjacent vertebral endplates to resist expulsion. The XCage™ Spacer is to be filled with autogenous bone graft material. Once implanted, the XCage™ Spacer is designed to restore intervertebral disc height, provide anterior column support and maintain structural stability of the motion segment to facilitate intervertebral body fusion.
The Ouroboros XCage™ Shell is manufactured from polyetheretherketone (PEEK) per ASTM F2026, and has integrated tantalum radiographic markers per ASTM F560. The XCageTM Shim and Core are made from Titanium alloy per ASTM F136.
The Ouroboros XCage™ Interbody Fusion System includes a set of re-useable manual surgical instruments for delivery of the device.
#### Indications for Use:
The XCage™ Interbody Fusion System is indicated for spinal intervertebral body fusion with autogenous bone graft in skeletally mature individuals with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1, following discectomy. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment. Additionally, these patients may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). XCage™ system Spacers are intended to be used with supplemental fixation instrumentation, which has been cleared for use in the lumbar spine ..
#### Comparison to Predicate Device
The equivalence of XCage™ Interbody Fusion System to the predicates is supported by similarity in intended use, indications for use, technical characteristics, materials and performance.
