Discussion:
### Comment 1
There are differences in the size of Vial Adapters of the subject device which consist of 13mm, 20mm, 28mm configurations. The different sizes are for different diameter standard vials. The subject device performance testing demonstrates that the difference does not affect the intended use and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
# Comment 2
The connector of Vial Adapter was divided into a female Luer fitting and a male Luer fitting, while the predicated device has only one luer fitting. This difference was addressed through ISO 80369-7 as well as biocompatibility, sterility and performance testing. The difference does not raise new or different questions of safety and effectiveness.
# Comment 3
The Vial Adapter is provided sterilized by an Electron beam Irradiation method rather than gamma irradiation for the predicate device. However, the validation of the sterilization process in compliance with ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2 ensures the device is adequately sterilized. Therefore, the difference does not raise new or different questions of safety and effectiveness.
# Comment 4
The expiration date of subject device is 3 years which is shorter than the predicated device. The performance of the device over the proposed shelf life was tested to demonstrate that the difference does not affect the intended use and does not raise new questions of safety and effectiveness.
# VII Data
The following data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination.
# Biocompatibility testing
Biocompatibility of the Vial Adapter was evaluated in accordance with ISO 10993-1:2018 for the body contact category of "External communication device – Blood path
{7}------------------------------------------------
indirect" with a contact duration of "Limited (< 24 hours)". The following tests were performed, as recommended:
| Cytotoxicity | ISO 10993-5: 2009 |
|---------------------------|--------------------|
| Skin sensitization | ISO 10993-10: 2010 |
| Hemolysis | ISO 10993-4: 2017 |
| Intracutaneous reactivity | ISO 10993-10: 2010 |
| Acute systemic toxicity | ISO 10993-11: 2017 |
| Pyrogenicity | ISO 10993-11: 2017 |
# Sterilization and shelf life testing
The sterilization method has been validated to ISO 11137-1 and ISO 11137-2, which has thereby determined the routine control and monitoring parameters. The sterilization process is validated to a minimum SAL 10-6.
The shelf life of the Vial Adapter is determined based on stability study which includes ageing test. The testing is performed according to the following standards:
- A ISO 11607-1: 2019 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 1: Requirements for materials, sterile barrier systems and packaging systems
- A ISO 11607-2: 2019 Packaging for terminally sterilized medical devices - Part 2: Validation requirements for forming, sealing and assembly processes
- A ASTM F1980-16 Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices

#### Simulated transportation testing
The transportation package has been tested according to ASTM D4169-DC13 test procedure to ensure its integrity during transportation.
#### VIII Conclusion
The Vial Adapter is substantially equivalent to the predicate device, Vial Adapter 15mm cleared under K171796. The non-clinical testing demonstrates that the device is as safe and effective as the predicate device and that the differences in technological characteristics do not raise new or different questions of safety and effectiveness.
