Intended Use

Maxcon Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container (Model, MC1321) is intended for safe collection and containment of trace chemotherapy waste including needles, syringes, and empty vials. The container is non-sterile, to be single-used in areas with controlled access, such as nurse's stations, pharmacies and chemo treatment rooms, and the target population is for trained health-care professionals.

Device Story

The Maxcon Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container is a single-use, non-sterile sharps disposal container designed for the collection and containment of trace chemotherapy waste, including needles, syringes, and empty vials. It is intended for use by trained healthcare professionals in controlled environments like nurse's stations, pharmacies, and chemotherapy treatment rooms. The device consists of a base, a gasketed lid, and a screw-on cap. It features a mechanical locking mechanism where a bulge in the screw thread engages with a gap to provide a permanent, tamper-resistant closure. The container is translucent yellow to allow for fill-level monitoring. It does not include features to bend, break, or shear needles. The device provides a safe disposal method for hazardous waste, reducing the risk of sharps injuries and exposure to chemotherapy agents for healthcare staff.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance validated via ASTM F2132-01 (puncture resistance), ISO 23907 (stability, drop/impact, handle strength), 49 CFR 178.606 (stacking, vibration), and chemical resistance testing (H2SO4 and NaOH). Shelf-life supported by real-time and accelerated aging studies.

Technological Characteristics

2-gallon capacity; injection-molded polypropylene base and lid; EVA foam gaskets. Dimensions: 275.6mm x 181.5mm x 275mm. Mechanical screw-on closure with permanent locking feature. Non-sterile. No electronic components or software.

Indications for Use

Indicated for trained healthcare professionals for the safe collection and containment of trace chemotherapy waste, including needles, syringes, and empty vials, in controlled access areas such as nurse's stations, pharmacies, and chemotherapy treatment rooms.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A hypodermic single lumen needle is a device intended to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, parts of the body below the surface of the skin. The device consists of a metal tube that is sharpened at one end and at the other end joined to a female connector (hub) designed to mate with a male connector (nozzle) of a piston syringe or an intravascular administration set.

Dear Yang Song:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database located at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls.

# 9. Performance data

Maxcon Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container has similar indications for use and technological

characteristics as the predicate device (K964858) manufactured by Bemis Health Care, based on the

subject device, Maxcon Two Gallon Chemotherapy container, is found to successfully pass through the

tests as follows:

- Puncture Resistance (based on ASTM F 2132-01 (2008)) - Passed
- Container Stability (based on ISO 23907:2012)- Passed
- Drop/impact Test (based on ISO 23907:2012)-Passed
- Handle Strength (based on ISO 23907:2012)- Passed
- Stacking Test (based on 49CFR 178.606)- Passed
- Vibration Test (based on 49CFR 178.606)-Passed
- Test to demonstrate MAXCON TWO GALLON CHEMOTHERPAY CONTAINER suitable for chemotherapy drugs-Passed
- Chemical Resistance test (with H2SO4 and NaOH used to demonstrate its chemical resistance ) -Passed
- Shelf-life study (including real-time aging and accelerated-time aging to support its shelf life of 3 years)-Passed

Therefore, although the subject device and predicate device differ in container dimensions and the weight, it is believed that the difference in technological characteristics do not impair the subject device from the intended functions of disposal and storage of trace chemotherapy waste including needles, syringes, and empty vials, and did not compromise the SE (Substantially equivalent) to the predicated device.

#### Discussion of Clinical Tests Performed: 10.

There was no clinical testing required to support the medical device -

# 11. Conclusions:

We have demonstrated in this 510(k) submission that based on the nonclinical tests performed the subject device, Maxcon Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container, is as safe, as effective and performs at least as safely and effectively as the legally marketed predicate device, Bemis Two Gallon Chemotherapy Container (K964858)
