Intended Use

NovoGro Putty is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e. extremities, posterolateral spine and pelvis). NovoGro must be used with autograft as a bone extender in the posterolateral spine. These osseous defects may be surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. The device resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Device Story

NovoGro Putty is a resorbable bone void filler kit consisting of a dry powder component (monetite, newberyite, sodium hydrogen phosphate, silica, magnesium oxide, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose) and an aqueous component (ultrapure reverse osmosis deionized water). The components are mixed intra-operatively using a supplied mixing system to create a moldable, cohesive putty. The device is implanted by a surgeon into bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system. It acts as a scaffold that resorbs and is replaced by bone during the healing process. In the posterolateral spine, it must be used as a bone extender with autograft. The device provides a bioactive surface for bone formation, aiding in the repair of osseous defects.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data included. Performance demonstrated via bench testing (chemical, physical, biocompatibility, bioactivity) and a rabbit posterolateral spine fusion model. Animal study compared subject device to predicate and autograft control at 6 and 12 weeks using manual palpation, flexibility testing, radiography, micro-CT, and histomorphometry. Bioactivity confirmed in vitro via apatitic calcium phosphate formation in simulated body fluid.

{6}------------------------------------------------

The subject device and the primary predicate device have intended use, the same product classification and product code (MQV), and have similar Indications for Use statements. The subject device and the primary predicate devices are bone void fillers that are intended for bony voids or gaps that are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. The subject device and primary predicate device are indicated for use in the posterolateral spine with autograft bone (extender). Although the subject device and the primary predicate have slightly different Indications for Use language, this difference in language does not change the intended use as a bone void filler in the posterolateral spine.

The subject device and the primary predicate device each incorporate calcium phosphate materials within a polymeric binder or scaffold. The subject device polymeric binder is sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and the primary predicate K140375 scaffold is type I bovine collagen. The subject device and the reference predicate device are identical in material composition and physical form. The subject device and the predicate devices are provided sterile for single-patient, single-use in similar ranges of graft volumes.

The subject device and the reference predicate device K162087 are the same except for the indications for use. The subject device is not to be hydrated after mixing of the dry powder component with the ultrapure water, the primary predicate K140375 is to be hydrated with bone marrow aspirate and/or sterile water prior to use. In the posterolateral spine the subject device must be mixed with autograft bone, whereas the primary predicate device may be used without or with autograft bone.

The radiographic, histologic, and histomorphometric performance of the subject device were compared to that of the primary predicate device K140375 in a rabbit posterolateral fusion model. The results of the study demonstrated that the performance of the subject device was equivalent to that of the predicate device K140375.

#### CONCLUSION

The subject device and the predicate devices have the same intended use, have similar technological characteristics, and are made of similar materials. The subject device and the predicate devices are provided sterile for single-patient, single-use in similar ranges of graft volumes, and are packaged in similar materials and are sterilized using similar methods. The data included in this submission demonstrate substantial equivalence to the predicate device listed above.
