Device Story
OmniaSecure™ Model 3930M is a steroid-eluting, transvenous, integrated bipolar, nonretractable screw-in defibrillation lead. It senses cardiac signals and delivers pacing, cardioversion, and defibrillation therapies to the right ventricle. The lead features a titanium nitride-coated platinum alloy helix for active fixation and a monolithic controlled release device (MCRD) eluting 72 µg dexamethasone acetate to minimize inflammation. The RV electrode is a polyurethane-backfilled, Pt/Ir-clad tantalum coil. It uses MP35N alloy conductors with silicone/polyurethane insulation and a DF4-LLHO connector. Used in clinical settings by physicians during ICD/CRT-D implantation; an AccuRead analyzer cable interface tool (ACI tool) facilitates electrical measurements during the procedure. The device provides life-saving therapy for tachyarrhythmias, with MR conditional labeling for specific conditions.

## IX. SUMMARY OF NON-CLINICAL STUDIES
### A. Overall Summary of In Vitro Studies
The Model 3930M lead has been evaluated through in-vitro (non-clinical) testing to assure suitability and reliability for its intended use. Design verification and validation demonstrated that the devices meet their design specifications and requirements.
#### 1. Design Validation
Validation was performed by evaluating the compatibility, interaction, and functional operation of the lead using actual and simulated use scenarios. Key areas that were evaluated include: Implantability, Therapy Delivery, Reliability, MRI, and Usability. These areas were evaluated through clinical study, pre-clinical study, human factors testing, analysis, and modeling. Based on the testing, analysis, and review completed, the Model 3930M lead is validated for its intended use.
##### Implantability and Therapy Delivery:
Reference preclinical study results in Section IX(B) below. Also reference the LEADR clinical study results in Section X. Results show that the Model 3930M lead has been successfully used with respect to implantability and therapy delivery.
##### Usability:
The validation complies with summative testing requirements described in IEC 62366-1:2015+AMD1:2020. New safety mitigations in the instructions for use (IFU) that are associated with critical tasks were evaluated via testing. The goal of validation was to demonstrate that the new language introduced in the Model 3930M lead instructions for use (IFU) as risk controls are understood by intended users to ensure safe and effective use of the lead. The validation study was executed with no deviations from
PMA P240036: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data

{4}
the plan or protocol. All participants accurately paraphrased and summarized the sections of the user manual they were asked to read and interpret in their own words, without any use errors or close calls, demonstrating a clear understanding of the new language introduced in the Model 3930M lead instructions. Safety mitigations that were not new, unique or different compared to leads already on the market with similar designs, that are associated with critical tasks were evaluated via complaint analysis. Results of the analysis found the Model 3930M lead to be validated for the intended users, uses, and use environments.
## MRI:
MRI interactions with the Model 3930M lead have been demonstrated to be safe via in-vivo modeling, analysis, and bench testing per test methods and requirements of ANSI/AAMI PC76-2021 "Active implantable medical devices—Requirements and test protocols for safety of patients with pacemakers and ICDs exposed to magnetic resonance imaging." The safety of the Model 3930M lead, when used with a compatible Medtronic MRI SureScan device, was confirmed by assessing the risks of MRI induced lead electrode heating, MRI induced force and torque on the lead, and potential unintended cardiac stimulation or device malfunction due to the electromagnetic fields of the MRI system. There were no ferromagnetic materials identified in the leads therefore MRI induced force and torque will be safe. The probability of pacing capture threshold increase due to lead electrode heating was confirmed to be low and aligned with marketed leads. The probability of unintended cardiac stimulation was confirmed to be low. Additionally, appropriate device behavior was seen during standardized MRI device malfunction testing per ANSI/AAMI PC76-2021. The results of all testing, analysis, and modeling confirm that the Model 3930M lead, when utilized with a compatible Medtronic device, functions as intended during and following exposure to the MRI environment. The Model 3930M lead is labeled as MR Conditional under specified conditions.
## Reliability Modeling:
Reliability was demonstrated via modeling and an understanding of use conditions within a subset of LEADR patients. The modeling was published in the article "High predicted durability for the novel small-diameter Model 3930M lead" in Heart Rhythm September 2024. The reliability modeling projects a 98.2% (95% credible interval, 96.4%–99.7%) fracture-free survival rate of the Model 3930M lead at 10 years, including a 10-year fracture-free survival rate of 97.9% (95% credible interval, 95.9%–99.5%) in adolescents, exceeding both the modeled and clinical 10-year performance of the highly reliable, larger diameter Sprint Quattro lead.
## 2. Design Verification

The GLP safety evaluation of the Model 3930M lead demonstrated favorable safety parameters as defined by the following:
{15}
- All animals met electrical implant criteria as documented in the instructions for use for pacing capture threshold, R-wave amplitude, and packing impedance.
- Pacing and sensing remained stable throughout the study.
- Sensing of ventricular tachycardia with subsequent defibrillation therapy met acceptance criteria at all evaluations.
- Pathological evaluations of animals raised no safety concerns.
Overall, the GLP canine study demonstrated that the electrical performance of the Model 3930M lead is within clinical limits of currently marketed ICD leads in all areas of electrical clinical performance. The canine study provided confirmatory evidence of lead electrical performance, histopathological, and stability evidence. Therefore, the study adequately represents effective performance of the Model 3930M lead.
## X. SUMMARY OF PRIMARY CLINICAL STUDY
The applicant performed a clinical study to establish a reasonable assurance of safety and effectiveness with the Model 3930M lead for use in the right ventricle for sensing, pacing, cardioversion, and defibrillation when a cardiac implantable electronic device is indicated to treat patients who have experienced, or are at significant risk of developing, life-threatening tachyarrhythmias in the United States (US)/Canada, Asia Pacific (APAC), Greater China and Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) regions under IDE #G210150. Data from this clinical study were the basis for the PMA approval decision. A summary of the clinical study is presented below.
## A. Study Design
Patients were treated between June 21, 2021 and November 14, 2022. The database for this PMA reflected data collected through November 09, 2023 and included 657 patients. There were 47 investigational sites.
The study was a prospective, uncontrolled, multi-center, single-arm, nonrandomized pivotal clinical study. The study had a Bayesian adaptive design, and the number of enrolled subjects in the study was allowed to vary from 500-900 subjects depending on the number of lead fractures observed during the study and on the number of implants as specified in the adaptive design decision rules. The maximum number of subjects enrolled at each site was capped at 50, which is 10% of the minimum number of enrollments (500).
Adult subjects (≥18 years of age), who were indicated for a de novo implantation of a single or dual chamber ICD system or CRT-D system according to the current ACC/AHA/HRS or ESC guidelines and met all inclusion and none of the exclusion criteria, were eligible for enrollment and implant with the Model 3930M lead.

{16}
There were two primary objectives for this study (safety and effectiveness). The primary safety objective sample size requirement of 500 subjects refers to subjects who undergo an implant attempt of the Model 3930M lead, while sample size for the primary effectiveness objective was at least 95 subjects, who completed the implant defibrillation testing protocol. All subjects undergoing an implant attempt of the Model 3930M lead were included in the secondary safety objective to estimate fracture-free rate.
The LEADR study design was adaptive with regard to both sample size and follow-up duration. It featured two decision points based on the observed number of fractures in the study. Based on the study decision rules, the initial sample size was 500 subjects with an implant attempt but could have been increased to 800 subjects with an implant attempt, depending on the number of study lead fractures observed. To further account for subjects who enrolled in the study but exit prior to an implant attempt, the protocol allowed for enrollment up to 900 subjects.
All subjects who signed an informed consent were defined as the 'All Enrolled' cohort. All subjects with an implant attempt of the Model 3930M lead were included in the primary analysis for the primary safety and secondary safety objectives. The primary effectiveness objective included a subset $(\geq 95)$ of enrolled subjects who completed the defibrillation protocol at implant. Subjects who did not complete the defibrillation protocol due to an insufficient number of episodes being inducible were excluded from the analysis.
The sponsor consulted with the Steering Committee before and during the study.
A Clinical Events Committee (CEC) consisting of physicians independent of the study reviews and adjudicates at a minimum of all system- and procedure-related adverse events (AEs) as classified by the investigator or Medtronic, AEs associated with lead system events, and all death events (AEs with fatal outcomes) for their relationship to components of the system (including the Model 3930M lead) and/or procedure. The CEC also provides adjudication of the death classification for all death events.
A Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) consisting of physicians independent of the study was responsible for safeguarding the scientific integrity of the study. The DMC periodically reviewed the total incidence of AEs, followed trends of these events in the study and made recommendations to Medtronic and/or the Steering Committee regarding study conduct and subject safety.
An Episode Review Committee (ERC) consisting of physicians independent of the study evaluated device-treated ventricular episodes and adjudicated true rhythm and success of therapy (shocks and anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP)). Medtronic experts, who served as advisors to expedite the adjudication process but did not adjudicate episodes, also participated as ERC members.

2 Required for a minimum of 95 subjects.
3 Only required in case of replacement of the Model 3930M lead.
Note: In-person visits could be replaced by other options as per required per local regulations in the case of e.g., a pandemic.
The key timepoints are shown below in Section X (D) Safety and Effectiveness Results.
## 3. Clinical Endpoints
The primary safety objective was to demonstrate the freedom from major complications related to the Model 3930M lead at 6 months post-implant exceeds a pre-specified threshold of 90%. The objective will be met if the two-sided 95% lower credible bound for the 6-month Model 3930M lead-related major complication-free rate exceeds the pre-specified threshold of 90%.
The endpoint was defined as a subject’s first occurrence of a major complication related to the Model 3930M lead, as determined by an independent CEC, that occurs on or prior to 6 months (182 days) post implant.
For an adverse event (AE) to meet the endpoint, the event must have occurred within 182 days (inclusive) of the Model 3930M lead implant and be adjudicated by the CEC as being a major complication related (causal relationship) to the Model 3930M lead.
Major complications are those complications resulting in:
- Death
- Lead Fracture
- Hospitalization (in-patient)
- Prolongation of an existing hospitalization by at least 48 hours
- System Revision (reposition, replacement, explant)
The secondary safety objective was to estimate the fracture-free rate of the Model 3930M lead throughout the study duration.
The primary effectiveness objective was to demonstrate the percentage of subjects successfully defibrillated at implant with the Model 3930M lead exceeds the pre-specified threshold of 88%. The objective will be met if the two-sided 95% lower credible bound for the percentage of subjects successfully defibrillated exceeds the pre-specified threshold of 88%. The endpoint, defibrillation testing success, was defined as:
- One induced shockable ventricular arrhythmia (SSVA) episode successfully terminated with a 18J shock, or
{20}
- 2 consecutive SSVA episodes successfully terminated with 25J shocks
# B. Accountability of PMA Cohort
At the time of database lock, of 675 patients enrolled in the PMA study, 657 (97.3%) patients are available for analysis at the completion of the study.
The subject disposition is presented in Figure 2, where completed visits, missed visits, and attrition due to exit and deaths up to the 12-month visit are indicated.

Figure 2: Subject Flowchart LEADR Study
# C. Study Population Demographics and Baseline Parameters
The demographics of the study population are typical for a pivotal study performed in the US.
Of 675 enrolled subjects, 663 subjects had a completed baseline case report form (CRF). All 12 subjects with no baseline CRF exited without an implant attempt. All 657 subjects with an implant attempt, i.e., an implant of the study lead was attempted, had a baseline CRF completed.
PMA P240036: FDA Summary of Safety and Effectiveness Data
{21}
Among the 657 subjects who underwent implant attempt, 73.8% were male, the average age was 61.8 ± 13.0 years with a minimum of 19 years, and the average body mass index (BMI) was 28.5 ± 6.4 kg/m² (655 of 657 subjects had measurement available). NYHA classification was performed in 561 of 657 subjects. 17.1% of subjects were known to be NYHA Class I, 59.5% NYHA Class II and 23.4% NYHA Class III. None of the subjects had NYHA class IV which was an exclusion criterion for the study.
There were 97 subjects included in the defibrillation testing main analysis cohort. All 97 subjects had a completed baseline CRF. Among these 97 subjects, the majority were male (79.4%), the average age was 62.7 ± 13.5 years with a minimum age of 29, and the average BMI was 28.5 ± 6.8 kg/m². 83 of 97 subjects had NYHA classification completed and most of these subjects were NYHA Class II (65.1%).
There were several primary indications for device implant. The most common indications for the 657 subjects who underwent an implant attempt were “Subject has nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and has an LVEF less than or equal to 35% and is in NYHA functional Class II or III” (26.5%), followed by “Subject has LVEF less than or equal to 35% due to prior myocardial infarction and is at least 40 days post-myocardial infarction and is in NYHA functional Class II or III” (23.6%). These were also the most common indications for subjects in the defibrillation testing main analysis cohort. 25.8% had a primary implant indication of “Subject has nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy and has an LVEF less than or equal to 35% and is in NYHA functional Class II or III” and 22.7% had the indication of “Subject has LVEF less than or equal to 35% due to prior myocardial infarction and is at least 40 days post- myocardial infarction and is in NYHA functional Class II or III.”
Baseline characteristics are summarized in Table 5- Table 14.

## D. Safety and Effectiveness Results
### 1. Safety Results
#### 1.1 Primary Safety Objective Results
Of the 657 subjects undergoing an implant attempt, 25 subjects had a total of 25 adverse events (AEs) causally related to the Model 3930M lead. Of these, 20 events in 20 subjects were adjudicated as major complications by the CEC, of which 19 events in 19 subjects occurred within 182 days (6 months) and 19 events in 19 subjects occurred within 365 days (12 months) post-implant; the remaining 1 occurred after the 12-month follow-up.
The Kaplan-Meier estimated freedom from Model 3930M lead-related major complication rate at 6 months (182 days) and 12 months (365 days) was 97.1%, with a two-sided 95% confidence interval of 95.4% - 98.1% and at 12 months (Table 12). At time of this analysis, 6-month follow-up windows are closed for all subjects, and 12- month follow-up visits are ongoing; 522 subjects have had the opportunity to have a 12- month follow-up visit. 492 subjects have completed their 18-month follow-up visit. Figure 2 displays the Kaplan-Meier curve for freedom from Model 3930M lead-related major complications through 12 months. The Kaplan-Meier curve shows that the event rate is highest within the first days or month after implant and tends to decrease with a lower rate after the first days or month.

| 6 Months | 657 | 19 | 97.1% | 95.4% - 98.1% |

Figure 3: Kaplan-Meier Curve for Freedom from Model 3930M lead-Related Major Complications up to 12 Months
Bayesian analysis methods were used to estimate the Model 3930M lead- related major complication free rate at 6 months as $96.7\%$ (posterior mean). The lower bound of the two-sided $95\%$ credible interval is above the performance criterion of $90\%$ (Table 13) and hence the primary safety objective was met. Given the collected data and the prespecified Bayesian prior distribution, the Bayesian posterior probability that the Model 3930M lead-related major complication free rate exceeds the performance goal of $90\%$ is $>99.9\%$ . The Kaplan-Meier event rate at 6 month differs from the Bayesian analysis results (posterior mean of $96.7\%$ ) since the Kaplan-Meier estimate is based on different methodology than the Bayesian methodology which incorporated a skeptical prior.

# 1.2 Secondary Safety Objective Results
The secondary safety objective was evaluated with Bayesian methodology that combined clinical and simulated virtual patient data to provide a more precise estimate of the fracture-free rate than the clinical study alone. At each desired time point (6-, and 12- months), two-sided 95% credible intervals for the Model 3930M lead fracture-free rates were generated using a combination of clinical and virtual patient data derived from engineering models. The engineering model incorporates in-vivo use conditions (i.e. in-vivo curvature) and in-vitro fatigue strength testing (i.e. cyclic use conditions) to determine expected fracture-free survival of the Model 3930M lead over time. Specifically, lead bending data (i.e. "curvature") were obtained during calibrated biplane fluoroscopy sessions in a subset of LEADR patients that performed several arm movements. A distribution for the number of arm movements was based on data collected from healthy non-LEADR trial volunteers across a variety of age groups. Finally, lead fatigue strength was measured during in-vitro testing and used to derive the number of bending cycles required to cause conductor fracture.
The fracture-free rate at 6-months and 12-months are provided in Table 17 for clinical data only and clinical plus virtual patient data.
There were 657 subjects with implant attempt included in the analysis. There were no Model 3930M lead fractures reported during a mean follow-up period of 12.7 ± 4.8 months. No adverse events were assessed by the CEC to be Model 3930M lead fracture-related. Using clinical data only with a non-informative Bayesian prior, this resulted in a 6-month fracture-free survival rate of 99.99% (posterior mean) and 12-month fracture-free survival rate of 99.98%.
The survival outcomes from the virtual patient engineering model were used to elicit an informative Bayesian prior distribution to be used in the LEADR fracture-free analysis. A discounting approach was used to down-weigh the influence of the model based on the agreement between the fracture rate observed in the clinical data and the fracture rate observed from the engineering model. The simulated patients contributed a weight equivalent to approximately 242 additional patients.
Analysis of the combined clinical and virtual patient data resulted in a 6-month fracture-free survival rate of 99.99% (posterior mean) and 12-month fracture-free survival rate of 99.97%. The estimate from the engineering model is more conservative than the estimate from the clinical data only. Thus, the credible intervals are slightly wider and posterior means are slightly lower after incorporating the virtual patient data. It can be seen that there is a high fracture-free rate for the Model 3930M lead based on analysis of the clinical data only as well as of the clinical and virtual patients data.

## 1.3 Adverse effects that occurred in the PMA clinical study:
AEs in this study were coded using MedDRA (Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities) which is organized with a five-level hierarchy. The highest or broadest level is System Organ Class (SOC), further divided into High-Level Group Terms (HLGT), High-Level Terms (HLT), Preferred Terms (PT), and finally into the most granular Lowest Level Terms (LLT). MedDRA Preferred Term were used to summarize AEs.
There were 1425 AEs reported in 425 enrolled subjects. No AEs were experienced by enrolled subjects who did not undergo a study lead implant attempt, resulting in the same total of 1425 AEs from 425 subjects who had an implant attempt. The most common AE was ‘Ventricular Tachycardia’ with 183 events in 93 subjects, of which 70 events from 38 subjects were serious. Of the 1425 total AEs reported, most occurred post-procedure (1404), but 7 AEs happened pre-procedure and 14 AEs happened during the procedure.
Among all AEs, no reported events, reviewed individually or in aggregate, were considered to be unexpected serious adverse device effects (USADEs) or unexpected adverse device effects (UADEs). 610 events were serious, 118 events were indicated to be related to the procedure (73 causal relationship and 45 possible to implant or system modification), 133 events were related to the system (79 causal relationship and 54 possible to ICD/CRT-D and/or RA, RV, and/or LV leads), and 14 events were indicated to be related to the accessory (4 causal relationship or 10 possible to implant tool, programmer or catheter). There were 58 events related to the RV lead (25 causal relationship and 33 possible to RV lead) and there were no events adjudicated to be related to RV lead fracture. Of note, one of the 33 events with possible relationship to the RV lead was related to a commercially available RV lead (Medtronic Sprint Quattro TM) and not the Model 3930M lead.
Twenty-four subject deaths have been reported. Of the 24 deaths, 13 were non-cardiac deaths, 6 were non-sudden cardiac deaths, 2 were sudden cardiac death, and 3 were adjudicated as unknown classification. No deaths were adjudicated to have a causal relationship to the Model 3930M lead. However, the CEC determined that three deaths (sepsis, death of unknown cause due to insufficient information, and

sudden cardiac death due to ventricular fibrillation in a patient with multiple myeloma) have a possible relationship to all components of the system, including the Model 3930M lead.

*AE seriousness by investigator
**U(S)ADE determined by Medtronic
***AE relatedness per CEC adjudication if event required adjudication by CEC; otherwise investigator determination was used; categories of AE relatedness were not mutually exclusive
***RV lead fracture relatedness is only adjudicated by the CEC. Hence, the responses do not sum up to the number of adverse events.
Table 16 provides a summary of all AEs that were adjudicated as system and procedure-, system- (i.e., system only), or procedure- (i.e., procedure only) related. There were 175 AEs (89 serious, 86 non-serious) experienced by 139 subjects with an implant attempt, that were adjudicated as causal or possible related to the system and/or procedure. The most common preferred terms were lead dislodgement (22 events in 20 subjects) and device inappropriate shock delivery (22 events in 18 subjects).
