The indications for use have expanded<br>to include "medically refractory essential tremor" in TrueBeam™,<br>TrueBeam STx and Edge™ System. This submission does not include any<br>other device modification. | | Summary of Performance Testing: | The predicate and subject device have equivalent performance<br>specifications and have the same principle of operation. The results of the<br>verification, validation and safety standards testing (Predicate device -<br>K213977) demonstrates that there are no changes to the safety profile of<br>the device. | | Summary of Clinical Data: | Stereotactic Radiosurgery (SRS) has been used for decades to treat tremor<br>conditions. In a literature review, over 1300 patients were treated with SRS<br>for tremor conditions with similar outcomes and complication rates as<br>traditional surgical options. The attributes of advanced target localization,<br>beam collimation, and patient immobilization are common to both linear<br>accelerators and Gamma Knife, allowing for both devices to deliver<br>comparable doses to precisely-defined targets. Linear accelerators are in<br>routine clinical use for SRS treatments and recent publications report<br>tremor improvement and complication rates for linear accelerator-based<br>SRS comparable to those achieved with the Gamma Knife. The majority of<br>studies reporting on the use of SRS for the treatment of tremor conditions<br>include a discussion on the importance of advanced imaging and a<br>dedicated/experienced treatment team in order to properly localize,<br>immobilize, and treat these patients. In conclusion, linear accelerator-based<br>SRS for medically refractory essential tremor is reported to be a safe and<br>efficacious treatment option in situations where other treatment options<br>are not available or are otherwise contraindicated. | # Argument for Substantial Equivalence to the Predicate Device The subject device and predicate device have the same intended use of stereotactic radiosurgery and precision radiotherapy for lesions, tumors, and conditions anywhere in the body where radiation therapy is indicated for adults and pediatric patients. The expansion of the indications for use to include "medically refractory essential tremor" does not affect the design/principle of operation and does not introduce changes in the risk profile. The technological characteristics and features of the subject device remain unchanged from the previous submission (Predicate device - K213977). There are no other modifications to predicate and subject device have equivalent performance specifications and have the same principle of operation. The verification and safety testing standards that support HET v3.0 (TrueBeam STx-Edge and VitalBeam) have been performed for the predicate device. Based on the methods of evaluation and the data from the clinical literature, Varian believes that the subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device.
