The EndoGI Biliary Stent System is intended for delivery of stent(s) to the biliary tract for drainage of the bile ducts, for splinting of a bile duct during healing, or for providing bile duct patency in a stricture or past a stone.
Device Story
EndoGI Biliary Stent System consists of delivery catheter preloaded with two straight, radiopaque plastic stents featuring 65° duodenal bends. Used by physicians in clinical settings to treat biliary strictures or stones. Device utilizes combination of rapid-exchange and over-the-wire techniques to deploy two stents in single procedure, reducing need for multiple delivery system insertions. Safety lock mechanisms integrated into handle. Stents provide drainage, splinting, or patency. Output is physical placement of stents within biliary tract. Benefits include procedural efficiency by enabling dual-stent placement via single passage over guidewire.
Clinical Evidence
No human clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing (kink resistance, flow rate, bond strength, dimensional verification, compression/tensile testing) and GLP-like porcine animal study (n=6). Animal study validated successful deployment of two stents and retrieval in single procedure; average procedure time 20 minutes; no local tissue reactions observed.
Technological Characteristics
10 Fr delivery system; two 110 mm radiopaque plastic stents; compatible with 0.035" guidewires. Materials include various polymers and stainless steel. Sterilization via Ethylene Oxide (EtO). Single-use. Mechanical features include safety lock handle and dual-stent preloading capability.
Indications for Use
Indicated for patients requiring biliary tract drainage, bile duct splinting during healing, or maintenance of bile duct patency in cases of stricture or stone presence.
Regulatory Classification
Identification

#### 3 PREDICATE DEVICE
Primary predicate device:
- . AdvaniX™ Biliary Stent with NaviFleX™ RX Delivery System, manufactured by Boston Scientific, cleared under K101314; Product Code: FGE.
Reference device:
- Marathon Stent with Fusion Technology, manufactured by Cook Ireland, cleared under K060624; Product code: FGE.
#### 4 DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The EndoGI System incorporates two preloaded stents. Both stents are identical in design with a straight body and one end incorporating a 65° bend (duodenal bend). The stents are comprised of a biocompatible radiopaque plastic which allows visualization of the stents post deployment. Both stents are pre-mounted on the delivery system and are delivered via near-the-wire and over-the-wire methods.
{4}------------------------------------------------
The EndoGI System is available 10 Fr and includes two 110 mm stents. The system is compatible with a guidewire of up to 0.035". The safety lock mechanisms are incorporated within the delivery device handle.
#### 5 INDICATIONS FOR USE
The EndoGI Biliary Stent System is intended for delivery of stent(s) to the biliary tract for drainage of the bile ducts, for splinting of a bile duct during healing, or for providing bile duct patency in a stricture or past a stone.
#### SUBSTANTIAL EQUIVALENCE 6
The EndoGI Biliary Stent System is substantially equivalent to the Advanix™ Biliary Stent with NaviFlex™ RX Delivery System. Both devices have similar indications for use; the main difference is that the EndoGI System allows the insertion of two stents on one delivery device while the predicate requires two separate delivery device insertions in order to achieve the same results.
Bothe devices incorporate a combination of rapid exchange and over-the-wire techniques to deliver the stent(s). Comparative bench testing demonstrated that the stent components of both systems are substantially equivalent. Additional bench and animal testing on the EndoGI delivery device demonstrated that the device performs as intended and that no new safety and effectiveness concerns have been introduced due to the ability of the system to deliver two stents.

- -EndoGI Biliary Stent Tensile Test (Bile)
### Animal Performance Testing:
A GLP-like animal study on porcine model was conducted to evaluate the performance of the system and to validate its ability to successfully deploy two stents. A total of 6 repeats including 2 deployments and 6 stent retrievals were performed. The duration of the complete procedure (from delivery system insertion to the beginning of monitoring following retrieval) was 17 minutes - 29 minutes with an average of 20 minutes per repeat. The second stent deployment following the first stent was performed within 1-2 minutes with an average of 1 minute for second stent deployment.
The goals of the study were met: namely, the system was able to successfully deliver 2 stents utilizing a one-step procedure, no local tissue reaction was visualized, and successful stent removal was achieved.
#### 8 CONCLUSION
The EndoGI System has similar indications for use as the main predicate, the Advanix™ Biliary Stent with NaviFlex™ RX Delivery System. Although the indications for use statement of the Advanix addresses the placement of only one stent, the product labeling clearly demonstrates that multiple stent placement with the Advanix is actively promoted. Furthermore, multiple stent placement is common practice and therefore the ability of the EndoGI System to allow for the placement of two stents does not raise new safety or effectiveness concerns. The main technological difference between the EndoGI delivery system and the predicates is due to the systems' ability to incorporate two preloaded stents in one system. We believe that no new safety and effectiveness concerns are raised due to this technological difference. With respect to mode of operation, the EndoGI System utilizes a combination of rapid exchange and over-the-wire techniques to deliver the stents to the desired location, this is identical to the mode of operation of the identified predicates. The company has provided sufficient comparative testing between the EndoGI System and Advanix predicate as well as additional pre-clinical bench and animal data to demonstrate our substantial equivalency claim. Consequently, it is clear that the EndoGI System is as safe and effective as its primary predicate without raising any new safety and/or effectiveness concerns.
