Intended Use
The IdentiTi Porous Ti Interbody System is indicated for spinal fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients at one or two contiguous levels in the thoracolumbar spine. Thoracic: T1-T2 to T11-T12, or at the thoracolumbar junction (T12-L1), following discectomy for the treatment of a symptomatic degenerative disc disease (DDD), including thoracic disc herniation (myelopathy and/or radiculopathy with or without axial pain). Lumbar: L1-L2 to L5-S1, for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The IdentiTi Porous Ti Interbody System is intended for use on patients who have had at least six months of non-operative treatment. It is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft and supplemental fixation systems that are cleared by FDA for use in the thoracic and lumbar spine.
Device Story
Intervertebral body fusion system; includes porous titanium and PEEK spacers with optional 20-40 nm hydroxyapatite (NanoTec) surface treatment. Implants feature internal graft apertures and endplate teeth to mitigate expulsion. Used in spinal fusion procedures via anterior or posterior approaches. Surgeon-operated; implanted in clinical/OR settings. Provides structural support to disc space; promotes fusion via bone graft. NanoTec surface provides nano-scale topography to enhance surface characteristics. System includes standalone options (cervical/ALIF) with integrated bone screws and non-standalone options requiring supplemental fixation. Benefits patient by stabilizing spinal segments and facilitating fusion in degenerative disc disease.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is based on nonclinical bench testing, including bacterial endotoxin testing (BET) per ANSI/AAMI ST72:2011/(R)2016, and mechanical performance comparisons to predicate devices.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: PEEK Optima LT1 (ASTM F2026), Tantalum (ASTM F560), Ti-6Al-4V ELI (ASTM F136), CPTi Grade 2 (ASTM F67). Surface: Porous titanium architecture; optional 20-40 nm hydroxyapatite (NanoTec) coating. Form factor: Various lengths, widths, heights, lordotic angles. Fixation: Integrated bone screws (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) for standalone models. Sterilization: Not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for spinal fusion in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels in the thoracic (T1-T12), thoracolumbar (T12-L1), lumbar (L1-S1), or cervical (C2-T1) spine. Includes patients with Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis. Requires 6 months (thoracolumbar/lumbar) or 6 weeks (cervical) of failed non-operative treatment. Used with autograft/allograft and supplemental fixation where specified.

#### IV. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The IdentiTi and Transcend Interbody Systems are cervical and thoracolumbar intervertebral body fusion systems designed to be inserted through anterior and posterior approaches. The interbody spacers are manufactured surgical from PEEK (polyetheretherketone) Optima LT1 per ASTM F2026, tantalum per ASTM F560, titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI), and commercially pure titanium (CPTi Grade 2) per ASTM F67. The interbody spacers are available in the following material options: (1) PEEK (polyetheretherketone) with tantalum and titanium alloy markers, or (2) commercially pure porous titanium (PTi), or (3) a combination of commercially pure porous titanium (CP Ti Grade 2) per ASTM F67 and titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F136.
The subject IdentiTi and Transcend Interbody Systems implants consist of various lengths, widths, heights and lordotic options to accommodate individual patient anatomy. To mitigate risk of expulsion, the interbody endplates feature teeth. All interbody spacers feature an internal graft aperture for placement of graft material to promote fusion through the cage. Additionally, the IdentiTi implants are offered with a microstructure due to the layering of material that forms the porous architecture. This porous geometry extends to the superior and inferior surfaces of the device for implant fixation.
The IdentiTi and Transcend NanoTec Interbody Systems implant surfaces have been treated with a 20-40 nanometer thin hydroxyapatite (HA) surface treatment. The surface treatment presents nano-scale topography on the entirety of the implant surface, in addition to macro-/micro-scale topography existing from prior to treatment.

The IdentiTi ALIF and Cervical Standalone Interbody Systems accept two or three bone screws/bolts that are made of titanium alloy (Ti-6Al-4V ELI) per ASTM F136 in varying lengths and diameters.
