Intended Use

The TheraSphere 360™ Y-90 Management Platform includes Treatment Planning and Activity Calculation functionalities as optional interactive tools intended for calculating the activity of TheraSphere Microspheres required at treatment time based upon the desired dose, lung shunt fraction, anticipated residual waste, and liver mass. The Treatment Planning and Activity Calculation functionalities include features to aid in TheraSphere Microspheres dose vial selection. Additionally, the TheraSphere 360 Platform includes optional post-treatment analysis functionalities to be used following treatment with TheraSphere Microspheres. For post-TheraSphere Microspheres treatment, the TheraSphere 360 Platform should only be used for the retrospective determination of dose and should not be used to prospectively calculate dose or for pre-treatment planning when there is a need for retreatment using TheraSphere Microspheres.

You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing practice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading. If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Changes in this 510(k) included modifications to allow for Any Day Dosing, which imports the actual vial calibration date instead of using a preset calibration date of Sunday, noon. This change allows users to select vials based on Days Post Calibration instead of Week 1 / Week 2. Additionally, user interface changes were made to provide more information to the user during vial selection, provide enhanced filtering and sorting capabilities, and make visualizations more user friendly. Any Day Dosing and the associated user interface changes did not change the technological principles or principles of operation of TheraSphere 360 V2.0 from the previously cleared TheraSphere 360 software version.
