Intended Use
The NuVasive CoRoent Small Ti-C System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The CoRoent Small Ti-C System is intended for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in patients with cervical disc disease (DDD) at up to two contiguous levels from C2 - T1. The System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation; the CoRoent Small interbody devices with lordotic angles of 10° or greater are required to be used with an anterior cervical plate as the form of supplemental fixation. The System is intended for use with autogenous and/ or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous, cortical, and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The cervical devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment.
Device Story
Intervertebral body fusion device for anterior cervical approach; hollow PEEK Optima LT-1 implant with plasma-sprayed commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) coating on superior/inferior surfaces; features surface teeth for vertebral gripping; includes titanium alloy or tantalum radiopaque markers for radiographic positioning. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to facilitate spinal fusion in patients with cervical disc disease. Implant packed with autograft/allograft bone graft to promote fusion; supplemental fixation (anterior cervical plate) required for specific lordotic configurations. Device provides structural support during fusion process; benefits patient by stabilizing spinal segment and addressing disc pathology.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Bench testing only: static and dynamic axial compression and torsion (ASTM F2077), wear debris testing (ASTM F2077, F1714, F1877), and bacterial endotoxin testing (ANSI/AAMI ST-72:2011).

Indications for Use
Indicated for intervertebral body fusion in skeletally mature patients with cervical disc disease (DDD) at up to two contiguous levels (C2-T1). Requires at least six weeks of prior non-operative treatment. Must be used with supplemental fixation (anterior cervical plate required for lordotic angles ≥10°) and bone graft.
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.

#### C. Predicate Devices
The subject NuVasive CoRoent Small Ti-C System is substantially equivalent to primary predicate device NuVasive CoRoent Small Interbody System (K150362), and additional predicates CoRoent Ti-C System (K160916), NuVasive CoRoent Ti-C System (K140319) and NuVasive CoRoent System (K081611).
#### D. Device Description
The NuVasive CoRoent Small Ti-C System is designed to address cervical pathologies utilizing interbody placement through an anterior surgical approach. The subject CoRoent Small Ti-C System implants are hollow devices manufactured from Polyetheretherketone (PEEK) Optima LT-1 conforming to ASTM F2026. A commercially pure titanium (CP Ti) coating is plasma sprayed to the superior and inferior surfaces of the device. The implant contains a hollow core or graft aperture which allows for packing of autograft to help promote a solid fusion. Rows of teeth on the surface of each end of the device serve to grip the adjacent vertebrae to resist migration and expulsion of the device. Pins made of either titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V) conforming to ASTM F136 or ISO 5832-3 or tantalum conforming to ASTM F560 or ISO 13782 serve as radiopaque markers so the location and orientation of the device may be seen radiographically during and after the procedure for position confirmation. The implants are available in a variety of different shapes and sizes to suit the individual pathology and anatomical conditions of the patient.

#### E. Intended Use
The NuVasive CoRoent Small Ti-C System is indicated for intervertebral body fusion of the spine in skeletally mature patients. The CoRoent Small Ti-C System is intended for use for anterior cervical interbody fusion in patients with cervical disc disease (DDD) at up to two contiguous levels from C2 - T1. The System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation; the CoRoent Small interbody devices with lordotic angles of 10° or greater are required to be used with an anterior cervical plate as the form of supplemental fixation. The System is intended for use with autogenous and/or allogeneic bone graft comprised of cancellous, cortical, and/or corticocancellous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The cervical devices are to be used in patients who have had at least six weeks of non-operative treatment.
#### F. Technological Characteristics
As was established in this submission, the subject CoRoent Small Ti-C System is substantially equivalent to other predicate devices cleared by the FDA for commercial distribution in the United States. The subject device was shown to be substantially equivalent and have the same technological characteristics to its predicate devices through comparison in areas including design, intended use, material composition, and function. This device does not contain software or electrical equipment.
#### G. Performance Data
Non-clinical testing was performed to demonstrate that the subject CoRoent Small Ti-C System is substantially equivalent to other predicate devices. The following testing was performed:
- Static and dynamic axial compression and torsion per ASTM F2077
- Wear debris testing per ASTM F2077, ASTM F1714 and ASTM F1877 ●
- Bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) per ANSI/AAMI ST-72:2011 ●
The results demonstrate that the subject CoRoent Small Ti-C System presents no new worstcase for performance testing, and meets the requirements as outlined in the Agency's guidance, "Submission and Review of Sterility Information in Premarket Notification (510(k)) Submissions for Devices Labeled as Sterile". For the above reasons, the subject device was found to be substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. No clinical studies were conducted.
#### H. Conclusions
Based on the indications for use, technological characteristics and comparison to predicate devices, the subject CoRoent Small Ti-C System has been shown to be substantially equivalent to legally marketed predicate devices.
