Intended Use
GranOS™ devices are indicated only for bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. GranOS™ is indicated to be gently placed into bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. the extremities, posterolateral spine, and pelvis). These defects may be surgically created osseous defects or osseous defects created from traumatic injury to the bone. The product provides bone void filler that resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.
Device Story
GranOS is a synthetic, porous, resorbable osteoconductive scaffold composed of beta tricalcium phosphate granules. It is used as a bone void filler to treat non-structural bony defects in the extremities, spine, and pelvis. The device is manually placed by a surgeon into the defect site. Once implanted, the scaffold acts as a matrix for new bone growth, gradually resorbing and being replaced by natural bone during the healing process. It is intended for single-use in a clinical or surgical setting.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Compliance with ASTM F1088-04a (Standard Specification for beta tricalcium phosphate for Surgical Implantation) was demonstrated. No clinical data was provided.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Beta tricalcium phosphate (Ca3(PO4)2) meeting ASTM F 1088-04a (2010). Structure: Porous scaffold with interconnected porosity (~70%) and pore sizes <1-700μm. Form factor: Granules (250-500μm, 1-2.8mm, 2-4mm). Sterilization: Gamma radiation (SAL 10^-6). Single-use.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients with bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system (extremities, posterolateral spine, pelvis) resulting from surgery or traumatic injury, where the defect is not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
A resorbable calcium salt bone void filler device is a resorbable implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the extremities, spine, and pelvis that are caused by trauma or surgery and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure.
Special Controls

Results of non-clinical performance tests has demonstrated that GranOS™ - beta tricalcium phosphate granules have the same critical specification (i.e. chemistry, crystallinity, physical form, porosity, dissolution/solubility) and the same intended use as the predicate device.
Key requirements and recommendations have also been met within The Class II Special Controls Guidance: Document Resorbable Calcium Salt Bone Void Filler Device; Guidance for Industry and FDA.
## Non-clinical testing
GranOS™ - beta tricalcium phosphate granules have been tested and shown to be in compliance to the following recognised performance standard: ASTM F1088-04a 2010 - Standard Specification for beta tricalcium phosphate for Surgical Implantation. In addition, GranOS™ - beta tricalcium phosphate granules have the same Contraindications, Instructions, Warnings, Precautions and possible adverse reactions/complications when directly compared to the predicate devices and so does not raise new questions regarding safety and effectiveness and therefore substantial equivalence is claimed under Section 513(i) of the FD&C Act (21 U.S.C. § 360c(i)).
## [21CFR 807.92(b)(1) and 21CFR 807.92(b)(2])
## Conclusion
Based on the results of the non-clinical testing and the clinical evaluation of the product, we conclude that GranOS™ - beta tricalcium phosphate granules are as safe, as effective, and performs as well as or better than the predicate device.
