Intended Use

The Pen Injector is a re-usable pen injector designed for single patient use by diabetics for the self-injection of a desired dose of insulin. The Pen Injector uses HUMALOG (insulin lispro) injection (U-100) available in 3 mL cartridges, and a single use detachable and disposable insulin pen needle (supplied separately, needle sizes including: 32G*4mm, 31G*4mm, 31G*5mm, and 31G*6mm).

Device Story

Reusable mechanical pen injector for insulin delivery; accommodates 3 mL insulin cartridges and detachable needles. User manually sets dose via adjustment knob (up to 80 units, 1-unit increments); depressing button engages mechanical coupling to drive piston and expel insulin. Used in professional healthcare facilities and home environments by patients. Device provides mechanical dose delivery; no electronic or software components. Benefits include precise, repeatable insulin administration for diabetes management.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Bench testing only. Performance verified against ISO 11608-1:2022 for dose accuracy, injection force, and injection time. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-1, -5, -10, and -23. Shelf life verified per ASTM F1980-16; transportation testing per ASTM D4169:2022.

Technological Characteristics

Mechanical pen injector; 3 mL cartridge capacity; 80-unit max dose; 1-unit increments. Materials evaluated for biocompatibility per ISO 10993. Complies with ISO 11608-1:2022. Non-sterile. No energy source; purely mechanical operation.

Indications for Use

Indicated for diabetics requiring self-injection of insulin using 3 mL HUMALOG (U-100) cartridges and compatible disposable pen needles.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A piston syringe is a device intended for medical purposes that consists of a calibrated hollow barrel and a movable plunger. At one end of the barrel there is a male connector (nozzle) for fitting the female connector (hub) of a hypodermic single lumen needle. The device is used to inject fluids into, or withdraw fluids from, the body.

Predicate Device Primary predicate device 510(k) Number: K182387 Trade Name: NovoPen Echo® ### IV. Device Description The Pen Injector is a reusable mechanical pen-injector capable of injecting a dose of up to 80 units of insulin, in 1 unit increments. The Pen Injector consists of a pen injector body, a push block, a injection button, a dose display window, a dose adjustment knob, a reservoir and a pen injector cap. The intended dose is mechanically set by rotating a dose adjustment knob. The insulin is injected by depressing the knob which mechanical coupling causes the piston in the insulin cartridge to move forward thereby expelling the intended dose. The Pen Injector is intended for single user and provided for non-sterile. ### V. Indication for use The Pen Injector is a re-usable pen injector designed for single patient use by diabetics for the self-injection of a desired dose of insulin.

However, this does not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness as both device are prescription use devices. ## Note 2 Although the dial increments between the proposed device and the predicate device are different, corresponding performance tests were conducted on the proposed device to demonstrate its comply with the ISO 11608-1 standard. Therefore, this difference would not affect the substantial equivalence. ## Note 3 Although the maximum delivered dose between the proposed device and the predicate device are different, corresponding performance tests were conducted on the proposed device to demonstrate the dose accuracy performance comply with the ISO 11608-1 standard. Therefore, this difference would not affect the substantial equivalence. ## Note 4 A service life verification test was conducted to demonstrate that the proposed device is valid during its service life. Therefore, this difference would not affect the substantial equivalence. ## Note 5 The biocompatibility tests were conducted to demonstrate the proposed device is biocompatible with intended users. Therefore, this difference would not affect the substantial equivalence. ## VII. Performance Data ## Non-Clinical Performance Test Conclusion ## Biocompatibility The proposed device, Pen Injector is categorized as skin contact with a duration of category A-limited(≤24hrs) according to FDA guidance Use of International Standard ISO 10993-1, "Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part1: Evaluation and testing within a risk management process". The Biocompatibility tests were conducted to verify that the proposed devices are not adverse to human tissue based on the following standards: - ISO 10993-1 Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 1: Evaluation . {6}------------------------------------------------ and testing within a risk management process - ISO 10993-5:2009 Biological evaluation of medical devices- Part 5: Test for ● in vitro cytotoxicity - ISO 10993-10:2021 Biological evaluation of medical devices - Part 10: Tests for skin sensitization - ISO 10993-23:2021 Biological evaluation of medical devices Part 23: Tests ● for irritation ## Performance Testing Device Verification Tests confirm that the Pen Injector meets the requirements of ISO 11608-1:2022 Needle-based injection systems for medical use - Requirement and test methods - Part 1: Needle-based injection systems. The Pen Injector is intended to be used with 3mL cartridges of HUMALOG (insulin lispro) injection (U-100). Therefore, the dose accuracy, injection force and injection time performance tests of the 3mL cartridges of HUMALOG (insulin lispro) injection (U-100) with Pen Injector was performed which meets the requirements of ISO 11608-1:2022. In addition, corresponding tests are conducted between the Pen Injector and the compatible pen needles to demonstrate the compatibility. ### Shelf Life and Service Life The Pen Injector has a five-year shelf life, as well as 3000 times of reuse service life. For shelf life, in accordance with ASTM F1980-16, Standard Guide for Accelerated Aging of Sterile Barrier Systems for Medical Devices, aging studies have been conducted to verify a five-year shelf life of the proposed device and ensure that its functionality is successfully maintained throughout the duration of this shelf life. In addition, a service life verification test was conducted on the proposed device to ensure its validity within its service life. #### Simulated Transportation A test is conducted according to ASTM D4169:2022 to demonstrate the proposed device could function as intended after transportation. ## Clinical Test Conclusion No clinical study is included in this submission. #### VIII. Conclusion The conclusion drawn from the non-clinical tests demonstrates that the proposed device, Pen Injector is as safe, as effective, and performs as well as the legally marketed predicate device NovoPen Echo® (K182387).
