BabyDance Fertility Lubricant is a personal lubricant for penile and/or vaginal application, intended to moisturize and lubricate, to enhance the ease and comfort of intimate sexual activity and supplement the body's natural lubrication. BabyDance Fertility Lubricant is compatible with sperm, oocytes, and embryos and can be used by trying to conceive couples. BabyDance Fertility Lubricant is compatible with natural rubber latex and polyurethane condoms. BabyDance Fertility Lubricant can be used to lubricate genital tissues and devices to facilitate use of diagnostic and therapeutic devices during fertility interventions and reproductive medicine.
Device Story
BabyDance Fertility Lubricant is a non-sterile, water-based personal lubricant supplied with an applicator. It is designed for penile and/or vaginal application to moisturize and lubricate during sexual activity or fertility interventions. The formulation is pH and osmolality-balanced to mimic fertile cervical mucus and semen, ensuring compatibility with sperm, oocytes, and embryos. It is used by couples trying to conceive and by clinicians during reproductive medicine procedures. The device is compatible with natural rubber latex and polyurethane condoms. It functions by providing physical lubrication to genital tissues and medical devices, facilitating ease of use and comfort without harming sperm function or embryo development.

## VI. Technological Characteristics of Device Compared to Predicate Device
Both the subject and predicate devices are water-based personal lubricants and have the same condom compatibility. They have different formulations and different values for their specifications; however, these differences do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness.
## VII. Summary of Non-clinical Performance Testing
The following studies have been performed to ensure safety and effectiveness of subject device:
- . Physical testing (appearance, pH, viscosity and osmolality) on freshly manufactured and aged BabyDance Fertility Lubricant using established methods
{5}------------------------------------------------
- . Microbiology studies on newly manufactured and aged BabyDance Fertility Lubricant, as follows:
- ★ Total aerobic microbial count testing per USP <61>
- * Total yeast and mold count per USP <61>
- * Absence of pathogenic organisms (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus. aureus, Salmonella, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, and Candida albicans) testing per USP <62>
- * Antimicrobial effectiveness testing per USP <51>
- * Endotoxin testing per USP <85>
- . Biocompatibility studies on newly manufactured BabyDance Fertility Lubricant, as follows:
- ★ Cytotoxicity testing per 10993-5:2009
- ★ Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization testing per ISO 10993-10:2010
- * Skin Irritation testing per ISO 10993-10:2010
- * Vaginal Irritation testing per ISO 10993-10:2010
- Acute Systemic Toxicity testing per ISO 10993-11:2006 *
- . Biocompatibility studies on the applicator, as follows:
- ★ Cytotoxicity testing per 10993-5:2009
- * Guinea Pig Maximization Sensitization testing per ISO 10993-10:2010
- * Vaginal Irritation testing per ISO 10993-10:2010
- . Mouse embryo assay (MEA) testing on newly manufactured and aged BabyDance Fertility Lubricant
One-cell mouse embryos were exposed to culture medium with and without added lubricant. Post exposure, mouse embryos were cultured and the percent developing to the expanded blastocyst stage were compared between control and lubricant-exposed treatments.
- . Human sperm survival assay (HSSA) testing on freshly manufactured and aged BabyDance Fertility Lubricant
Washed human sperm were resuspended in medium with and without added lubricant and incubated. Following incubation, progressive motility was compared for sperm in both the control and lubricant-exposed treatments.
- . Sperm function testing on freshly manufactured BabyDance Fertility Lubricant, as follows:
{6}------------------------------------------------
- * Lubricant barrier assay
Neat human semen samples were allowed to liquefy. An aliquot of undiluted lubricant was placed on a warmed glass slide. Immediately adjacent to this lubricant, a sample of sperm in semen was placed on the slide. Sperm penetration from semen into the lubricant was evaluated at the sperm-lubricant boundary and at distances into the lubricant samples.
- * Bovine mucosal penetration testing
Capillary tubes were filled with ovulatory phase bovine cervical mucus and sealed at one end. The open end of each tube was placed into a bull sperm sample suspended in either control medium or medium mixed with lubricant. Distance travelled by the vanquard sperm and density of spermatozoa at specified positions in the capillary tube were compared between the two groups.
- * Computer assisted sperm analysis (CASA)
Human sperm samples were incubated with control medium or a medium and lubricant mixture. After incubation and thorough mixing of samples, replicate aliquots were removed from treatments for CASA using a Hamilton Thorne IVOS analyzer. Results were compared between the two groups.
- * Semen assessment
Neat human semen samples were mixed with either control medium or a medium and lubricant mixture and incubated. Followinq incubation, motility of sperm in both treatments was determined according to the World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines for the examination and processing of human semen.
- * Sperm Chromatin Structure Assay (SCSA)
Neat human semen samples were incubated in control medium or in a medium and lubricant mixture. Human sperm chromatin integrity in both treatments was compared (i.e. DNA fragmentation Index), using the Sperm Chromatin Structure Assay (SCSA). The SCSA was performed using acridine orange to stain single and double stranded nucleic acids in sperm with and without lubricant exposure.
- * Mouse In-vitro Fertilization-Embryo Development (mIVF-MEA)
{7}------------------------------------------------
The impact of lubricant on the ability of sperm to penetrate and fertilize oocytes, as well as the ability of resulting zygotes to then develop normally to the blastocyst stage was evaluated using mIVF-MEA. Mouse ova were placed with mouse sperm in a solution containing control medium or a medium and lubricant mixture. After fertilization incubation, presumptive zvgotes were transferred to culture medium for subsequent development to expanded blastocysts. The number of oocytes becoming fertilized and developing into expanded blastocysts was compared between the two groups.
- mIVF-MEA testing on BabyDance Lubricant filled in freshly manufactured and . aged applicator
The impact of lubricant exposed to applicators on the ability of sperm to penetrate and fertilize oocytes, as well as the ability of these zygotes to then develop to the blastocyst stage was evaluated using mIVF-MEA. Mouse ova were placed with mouse sperm from three different treatments including: control medium (no lubricant or applicator exposure); medium and lubricant (without applicator exposure); medium and lubricant following exposure to the applicator. After fertilization incubation, the presumptive zygotes were transferred to culture medium for development to expanded blastocysts. The number of oocytes becominq fertilized and developing to expanded blastocysts was compared between the treatments.
- . Condom compatibility testing on freshly manufactured BabyDance Fertility Lubricant per ASTM D7661-10
## VIII. Conclusion
The subject and predicate devices have the same intended use and the different technological characteristics do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. The performance data demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device in terms of safety and effectiveness.
