Intended Use
The Innovasis AXTi™ Titanium Stand-Alone ALIF System is an intervertebral body fusion device for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels of the lumbar spine (L2-S1). DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment. In addition, these patients may have up to a Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels(s). These implants are used to facilitate fusion in the lumbar spine and are placed via an anterior (ALIF) approach. Hyperlordotic implants (those with a lordotic angle greater than or equal to 20°) are indicated for use with a supplemental spinal fixation system such as the Innovasis® Excella® Spinal System. The AXTi™ Titanium Stand-Alone interbody implants with a lordotic angle less than 20°, when used with all three internal fixation screws, do not require use of supplemental fixation. The interior of the AXTi implant is intended to be packed with autograft or allogenic bone graft composed of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft.
Device Story
Titanium (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) intervertebral body fusion device; 3D-printed; used for anterior lumbar interbody fusion (ALIF). Implant packed with autograft/allogenic bone graft; restores sagittal balance. Used in surgical setting by orthopedic/neurosurgeons. Implants <20° lordosis function as stand-alone with three integrated bone screws; implants ≥20° require supplemental fixation (e.g., Excella Spinal System). System includes reusable instrumentation for site preparation and implantation. Benefits include spinal stabilization and fusion facilitation in DDD patients.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance testing per ASTM F2077-14 and F2267-04 conducted for static/dynamic axial compression, static compression shear, dynamic compression shear, subsidence, and expulsion. Results demonstrate mechanical strength substantially equivalent to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Material: Titanium-6-Aluminum-4-Vanadium ELI (ASTM F136). Instruments: 465/17-4 Stainless Steel (ASTM F899), Radel (ASTM D6394), Silicone. Manufacturing: 3D printing. Form factor: Intervertebral body fusion cage with integrated bone screw fixation. Sterilization: Sterile-packaged single-use implant; reusable instruments steam sterilized.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous lumbar levels (L2-S1) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, failing 6 months of non-operative treatment. Implants ≥20° lordosis require supplemental fixation; <20° do not if using three internal screws.
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.

Dear Marshall McCarty:
We have reviewed vour 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.

### Basis for Substantial Equivalence:
The AXTi Titanium Stand-Alone ALIF System has been subjected to risk analysis, engineering analysis and testing to recognized standards and has been shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate device, K162236 Innovasis Ax Stand-Alone ALIF System, additional predicate, K163269 Titan Spine Endoskeleton TAS System and reference device K162496 CoreLink Foundation 3D Interbody.
The AXTi device has the following substantially equivalent properties to the predicate devices including the following features:
- Materials (biocompatibility profile)
- Technology (intervertebral body fusion device) —
- -Design
- -Sizes (including lordosis)
- Bone graft window/cavity
- -Mechanical strength (substantially equivalent to predicate device K162236 Ax).
- Indications for use |
- -Manufacturing (3D printing substantially equivalent to reference device K162496 Foundation)
- Conclusion: The conclusions drawn from the nonclinical tests demonstrate that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the legally marketed predicate devices.
