The "S" shape is a rounded, curved design, and the text is in all capital letters. {6}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/6/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Simplivia. The logo consists of a green, stylized "S" shape on the left, followed by the word "SIMPLIVIA" in gray, sans-serif font. The "S" shape is made up of two curved lines that create a circular form with a gap in the middle. ## Substantial Equivalence Discussion The Chemfort™ CSTD includes two new system components that were not included with the predicate device, these being the Vial Adaptor 32 mm and the Syringe Adaptor Lock. The introduction of these new system components raises no new issues of safety and/or effectiveness, because of their close similarity to components included in the predicate device. In addition, the Syringe Adaptor Lock was separately FDA-cleared under K170680. Chemfort™ CSTD components that are the result of design and/or material changes from the predicate and reference devices have been subjected to successful bench, biocompatibility, shelf life and usability testing, in addition to sterilization validation, and there are no new questions of safety and/or effectiveness have been identified. {7}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/7/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Simplivia. The logo consists of a green, stylized "S" shape on the left, followed by the word "SIMPLIVIA" in gray, sans-serif font. The "S" shape is made up of two curved lines that create a sense of movement and flow. The introduction of the additional wording "Chemfort prevents the introduction of microbial and airborne contaminants into the drug or fluid path for up to 7 days" in the indications for use statement has been verified by means of bench tests. The ability to prevent microbial ingress for up to 7 days should not be interpreted as modifying, extending, or superseding manufacturer's labeling recommendations for drug storage and expiration dating, however. ## Non-Clinical Performance Testing: Bench testing has been carried out on the Chemfort™ system components to demonstrate equivalence with the predicate device, including a number of tests at the labeled 12-month shelf life: - Disconnection force tests ● - . Assembly connection force tests - Breakage of Syringe Adaptor Lock Luer retention teeth - Bidirectional flow tests - Air tightness tests - Fluid tightness tests - Residual volume tests - Microbial ingress tests (7 days) - Particulate matter tests per USP <788> - Filter efficiency tests - ISO 8536-4 & ISO 80369-7 tests, including: ● - Gauging test O - Resistance for overriding O - Unscrewing torque o - O Ease of assembly - Liquid leakage O - Air leakage O - Separation force of conical fitting assembly O - Stress cracking o - Resistance to cytotoxic drugs - Packaging integrity ● - o Visual (ASTM F1886) - Peel (ASTM F88/F88M O - Dye penetration (ASTM F1929) O - Leakage (ASTM F2096) O - Burst (ASTM F1140/F1140M) O - Seven-day filter exposure test - Vapor containment - Sterility validation (ISO 11135-1) - ETO residuals (ISO 10993-7) - . Bacterial endotoxins (USP <85> and <161>) #### Biocompatibility Biocompatibility tests have been carried out on sterile components from the Chemfort™ system in accordance with ISO 10993 and FDA guidance, including: - ISO 10993-5:2009: Cytotoxicity - ISO 10993-10:2010: Sensitization, Irritation - ISO 10993-11:2006: Acute Systemic Toxicity, Material Mediated Pyrogenicity - ISO 10993-4: 2006: Hemocompatibility - ISO 10993-18:2005, Chemical Characterization ● - ISO 8536-4:2010: Chemical Tests - Extractables and Leachables Tests ● {8}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/8/Picture/0 description: The image shows the logo for Simplivia. The logo consists of a green, stylized letter "S" on the left and the word "SIMPLIVIA" in gray, sans-serif font on the right. The "S" is made up of two curved shapes that resemble a leaf or a wave. #### Substantial Equivalence Conclusion: Based on the performance testing conducted on the subject device, the Chemfort™ CSTD, does not raise new types of safety and effectiveness questions.
