Intended Use

The Imagyn 1251 seeds with activities from 0.1 to 1.0 mCi are indicated for permanent interstitial implantation of selected localized tumors. They are to be used either as primary treatment (such as prostate cancer or unresectable tumors) or as treatment of residual disease after excision of the primary tumor or recurring tumors. Tumors of the head, neck, lung, pancreas, prostate (early stages), and other accessible tumors are commonly treated.

Device Story

Imagyn 1251 Seed is a brachytherapy device consisting of I-125 radioactive beads encapsulated within a titanium tube. Designed for permanent interstitial implantation, the device is used by clinicians to deliver localized radiation therapy to tumors, including prostate cancer, lung, head, neck, and pancreatic tumors. It serves as either a primary treatment or for residual/recurring disease. The device provides localized radiation to the tumor site, potentially benefiting patients by treating localized disease while minimizing exposure to surrounding healthy tissue.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only; no clinical data provided.

Technological Characteristics

Radioactive I-125 beads encapsulated in a titanium tube. Device is a permanent interstitial implant. No specific ASTM standards cited. No software or electronic components.

Indications for Use

Indicated for permanent interstitial implantation in patients with localized tumors, including prostate cancer, unresectable tumors, or residual/recurring tumors of the head, neck, lung, and pancreas.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A radionuclide brachytherapy source is a device that consists of a radionuclide which may be enclosed in a sealed container made of gold, titanium, stainless steel, or platinum and intended for medical purposes to be placed onto a body surface or into a body cavity or tissue as a source of nuclear radiation for therapy.

Special Controls

*Classification.* Class II (special controls). A prostate seeding kit intended for use with a radionuclide brachytherapy source only is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to the limitations in § 892.9.

Predicate Devices

• EndoSeed (K914825/A)
• Amersham Model 6711 (K914281)

Description of the Device: IV.

The Imagyn 1251 Seeds use 1231 beads encapsulated in a titanium tube.

#### V. Intended Use:

The Imagyn 1251 seeds with activities from 0.1 to 1.0 mCi are indicated for permanent interstitial implantation of selected localized tumors. They are to be used either as primary treatment (such as prostate cancer or unresectable tumors) or as treatment of residual disease after excision of the primary tumor or recurring tumors. Tumors of the head, neck, lung, pancreas, prostate (early stages), and other accessible tumors are commonly treated.

Technological Characteristics of Device Compared to Predicate Device: VI.

The Imagyn 1251 Seed uses the same type of encapsulation of 1331 as predicate devices. The range of activity is similar to other devices. There are no biocompatibility or other safety and effectiveness differences between this device and other predicate devices.

### Substantial Equivalence VII.

The Imagyn 1251 Seed has been tested for safety and biocompatibility by standard tests used for radionuclide devices and found to safe and effective and substantially equivalent to other predicate devices.

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) notification of intent to market the device referenced above and we have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act). You may, therefore, market the device, subject to the general controls provisions of the Act. The general controls provisions of the Act include requirements for annual registration, listing of devices, good manufacturing proctice, labeling, and prohibitions against misbranding and adulteration.

Re:

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (Premarket Approval), it may be subject to such additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Reseulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 895. A substantially equivalent determination assumes compliance with the Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements, as set forth in the Quality System Regulation (QS) for Medical Devices: General regulation (2) CFR Part 820) and that, through periodic OS inspections, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) will verify such assumptions. Failure to comply with the GMP regulation may result in regulatory action. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register. Please note: this response to your premarket notification submission does not affect any obligation you might have under sections 542 of the Act for derices under the Electronic Product Radiation Control provisions, or other Federal laws or regulations.

This letter will allow you to begin marketing your device as described in your 510%) premarket notification. The FDA finding of substantial equivalence of your derice to a legally marketed predicate device results in a classification for your device and thus, permits your device to proceed to the market.

If you desire specific advice for your device on our labeling regulation (21 CFR Part 801 and additionally 809.10 for in vitro diagnostic devices), please contact the Office of Compliance at [phone]. Additionally, for questions on the promotion and advertising of your device, please contact the Office of Compliance at [phone].
