DEVICE DESCRIPTION The C2 CryoBalloon Ablation System is a cryosurgical device, which consists of four (4) components: (i) a single-use, sterile balloon Catheter that is inserted through the working channel of an endoscope with a minimum inner diameter (ID) of 3.7 mm and a maximum working length of 100 cm; (ii) a hand-held reusable Controller with a liquid crystal display (LCD) touch screen interface; (iii) a reusable Foot Pedal that is plugged into mains, provides power for the Controller, and allows the user to operate system functions such as ablation targeting, nitrous oxide flow control, and balloon deflation; and (iv) single-use Nitrous Oxide Cartridge that provides users with cryogen for each treatment. The C2 CryoBalloon Ablation System uses nitrous oxide as a cryogen to cause necrosis of targeted tissue in a controlled manner. The low operating pressure inflates the compliant balloon against the lumen ID. Nitrous oxide is directed at the targeted tissue and it evaporates on the inner surface of the balloon and freezes the tissue. The nitrous oxide is fully contained within the balloon and the resultant gas exhausts through the Catheter shaft and vents through the Controller. There are four (4) Catheter configurations that distribute nitrous oxide focally (focal diffuser), over a quarter of the lumen circumference (90° diffuser), over half of the lumen circumference (180° diffuser), or over the full circumference of the lumen (360° diffuser). The user selects the Catheter with the desired diffuser type, removes it from the sterile packaging and inserts it through the working channel of an endoscope until the balloon portion exits the distal end of the endoscope. The connector portion of the Catheter is inserted into the Controller and the radiofrequency identification (RFID) communication system in the Catheter connector and the Controller allows the Controller to perform functions specific to the Catheter. The LCD touch screen allows the user to set desired dosimetry, and communicates system status to the user. The user tightens the Controller Cap against the Controller, which pierces the nitrous oxide Cartridge. Nitrous oxide is contained in the Controller until the user steps on the Foot Pedal to allow the Controller to release it into the Catheter. The user visualizes the targeting and ablation via the inflated balloon and the images provided by the endoscope. The balloon is held in contact with the treatment area during the ablation. Upon conclusion of the procedure the balloon is deflated and withdrawn into the endoscope. #### V. INDICATIONS FOR USE The C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation System is intended for use as a cryosurgical tool in the field of general surgery, specifically for endoscopic applications, to include ablation of Barrett's Esophagus with dysplasia. {5}------------------------------------------------ #### VL. COMPARISON OF TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE Cryoablation is the fundamental technological principle for both the subject C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation System and the predicate C2 CryoBalloon™ Ablation System. Both the subject device and predicate devices are based on the same endoscopic instrumentation for accessing targeted sites and visualization. The subject device has the same Indications for Use as the predicate devices. The subject device and predicate devices are based on the following equivalent technological elements: - . Inserted through an endoscope to access the treatment site - Application of nitrous oxide cryogen to ablate (freeze) the targeted tissue ● - Use of direct visualization to the treatment area ● - Use of a compliant balloon to position the treatment - Use of a balloon to contain the cryogen (gas does not contact tissue) - Use of the Catheter shaft to vent gas out of patient ● - Use of diffuser to direct cryogen on targeted tissue ● - User-controlled release of cryogen - Software activated Controller ● The Controller is reused after intermediate level cleaning and disinfection. #### VII.
