ProctiGard™ is indicated for the symptomatic management of rectal mucositis.
Device Story
ProctiGard™ is a viscous, mucoadhesive liquid hydrogel supplied in single-use enema bottles. Designed for symptomatic management of rectal mucositis. Applied via enema bottle applicator to form a protective coating over rectal mucosa. Formulation consists of film-forming polymers, pharmaceutical aids, and preservatives. Identical in composition and mode of action to predicate MuGard® (K062795), which targets oral mucosa. Provides physical barrier to protect rectal tissue. Used in clinical or home settings as prescribed.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Safety established through biocompatibility testing per ISO 10993, including in vitro cytotoxicity, sensitization testing in guinea pigs, and mucosal irritation testing in rabbits.
Technological Characteristics
Viscous liquid hydrogel; mixture of film-forming polymers, pharmaceutical aids, and preservatives. Delivered via single-use enema bottle. Biocompatibility verified per ISO 10993 standards.
Indications for Use
Indicated for symptomatic management of rectal mucositis in patients requiring such treatment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
Mucoadhesive application for the protective coating of the rectal mucosa.

#### Identification of Predicate Devices 5.3
The liquid hydrogel formulation of ProctiGard™ is identical to that of MuGard®, and therefore ProctiGard™ is substantially equivalent to the following predicate device:
- MuGard® . Mucoadhesive Oral Wound Dressing manufactured by Access Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and cleared for commercial distribution under 510(k) K062795.
#### 5.4 Device Description
ProctiGard™ is a viscous, mucoadhesive liquid supplied in plastic bottles and is designed for the symptomatic management of rectal mucositis. When gently applied via the enema bottle applicator, the mucoadhesive formulation results in the formation of a protective coating over the rectal mucosa.

#### ર્ડ Indications for Use
ProctiGard™ is indicated for the symptomatic management of rectal mucositis.
#### Comparison to Predicate Devices 5.6
The liquid hydrogel formulation of ProctiGard™ is identical to that of MuGard® Mucoadhesive Oral Wound Rinse (Access Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) and similar to other legally marketed hydrogel wound dressing products. ProctiGard™ is designed for the rectal mucosa while MuGard targets the oral mucosa. MuGard® is provided in an 8 fluid ounce bottle while ProctiGard™ is provided in a single use enema bottle.
The mode of action of ProctiGard™ is achieved in an identical manner to that of MuGard® Mucoadhesive Oral Wound Rinse, i.e., through the formation of a protective layer over the mucosa (over the rectal mucosa rather than the oral mucosa).
The composition of the liquid hydrogel of ProctiGard™ is identical to that of MuGard® Mucoadhesive Oral Wound Rinse, i.e., a mixture of film-forming polymers, pharmaceutical aids, and preservatives.
The safety of ProctiGard™ has been established through biocompatibility testing of the hydrogel liquid according to ISO 10993, i.e., in vitro cytotoxicity tests, sensitization testing in guinea pigs and mucosal irritation testing in rabbits.
On the basis of this information, Access Pharmaceuticals concluded that ProctiGard™ is safe and effective for its intended use and performs equivalently to the identified legally marketed predicate device.

Dear Jeffrey B. Davis,
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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to 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.
