Intended Use

The MASCT device is intended for use in the collection of nipple aspirate fluid for cytological testing. The collected fluid can be used in the determination and/or differentiation of normal versus premalignant versus malignant cells.

Device Story

Manual breast aspirator; collects nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) from excretory ducts. Device consists of rigid polycarbonate cup and sample collection container. Negative pressure generated via hand-actuated lever. NAF collected on membrane filter; washed into container using fixative. Used by clinicians to obtain samples for cytological analysis. Pathologists evaluate samples to identify normal, premalignant, or malignant cells; aids in clinical assessment of breast tissue.

Clinical Evidence

Clinical study (n=30 patients, 60 breasts) evaluated MASCT performance. 100% of breasts yielded NAF. Sample weights ranged <1 to 37 mg (mean 6.6 mg). 100% of samples were sufficient for cytological analysis. Cytology results: 97% Class I, 3% Class IIa (benign). Results support device capability to collect samples suitable for identifying premalignant or malignant conditions.

Technological Characteristics

Non-powered breast aspirator. Materials: Polycarbonate cup. Principle: Manual vacuum generation via lever-actuated mechanism. Form factor: Handheld cup assembly. Standalone device; no software or electronic components. Sterilization: Not specified.

Indications for Use

Indicated for the collection of nipple aspirate fluid from the excretory ducts for cytological testing to differentiate between normal, premalignant, and malignant cells.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A gastroenterology-urology biopsy instrument is a device used to remove, by cutting or aspiration, a specimen of tissue for microscopic examination. This generic type of device includes the biopsy punch, gastrointestinal mechanical biopsy instrument, suction biopsy instrument, gastro-urology biopsy needle and needle set, and nonelectric biopsy forceps. This section does not apply to biopsy instruments that have specialized uses in other medical specialty areas and that are covered by classification regulations in other parts of the device classification regulations.

Aprile, R.Ph. Vice President, Regulatory and Quality Affairs Summary Preparation Date 10 February, 2003 Device Names Trade Name: Mammary Aspiration Specimen Cytology Test (MASCT) Common Name: Breast Aspirator Classification Name: Gastroenterology-Urology Biopsy Instrument (21CFR § 876.1075) #### Substantially Equivalent Device Substantial equivalence was claimed to Mammary Aspiration Specimen Cytology Test (MASCT; Nastech Pharmaceutical Company, Inc.) and Pro·Duct Catheter (Pro·Duct Health, Inc.) ### Device Description The Nastech MASCT device is similar to the non-powered breast aspirators manufactured by Nastech Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. and Pro-Duct Health, Inc. used to elicit and collect nipple aspirate fluid (NAF) from the excretory ducts (tubuli lactiferi or galactophori). The device is comprised of a rigid polycarbonate cup in which the sample collection container is inserted. Negative pressure (vacuum) is produced by nonpowered (hand) actuations of a lever like handle. The expressed NAF sample is collected on a membrane filter and washed into the sample container using an appropriate fixative solution. ### Intended Use The MASCT device is intended for use in the collection of nipple aspirate fluid for cytological testing. The collected fluid can be used in the determination and/or differentiation of normal versus premalignant versus malignant cells. ### Technological Characteristics The MASCT is a device which is substantially equivalent to the non-powered breast aspirators Manufactured by Nastech Pharmaceutical Company, Inc. and Pro-Duct Health, Inc. used to elicit and collect nipple aspirate fluid from the excretory ducts (tubuli lactiferi or galactophori). The subject device shares similar design, material and operating characteristics as the predicates and devices to which the predicate devices {1}------------------------------------------------ claim substantial equivalence. The subject device and predicate devices are comprised of polymer cups which are placed over the breast nipple and are used in conjunction with a non-powered mechanism for applying a gentle vacuum enabling expression of nipple aspirate fluid. #### Data Supporting Substantial Equivalence Nastech conducted in-vitro and clinical studies to verify and validate the device design. The results of that testing supported the conclusion that the MASCT device is safe and effective for its intended use. In addition, it is substantially equivalent to the identified predicate for all relevant parameters (e.g. intended use, target population, materials, etc.). The specific claim of determining and/or differentiating normal, premalignant and malignant cells based upon cytological is supported by a clinical study conducted by Nastech. The results, based on cytological evaluation and/or measurable weight changes on the sample collection membrane filter showed that all breasts evaluated (100%) with bilateral mammary aspiration technique using the Nastech MASCT yielded nipple aspirate fluid. Sample weights ranged from <1 to 37 mg and all samples evaluated cytologically were deemed to be clinically useful. The mean mammary aspiration sample weight was 6.6 mg, with a range of <1 to 37 mg, While 13% of the samples were reported as <1 mg due to weighing variability from the small volume of the samples, all of the samples were sufficient for cytological analysis in that the pathologist was able to read all of the samples and cytology results were obtained. Fifty-eight of sixty samples or 97% (30 patients, right and left breasts) were Class I, and two of 60 (3%) were Class IIa. Both Class IIa findings were benign. Therefore, these clinical data support the claim that cells collected with the MASCT can be used in cytological examinations by trained individuals to identify differences in cells which may be associated with either premalignant or malignant conditions. {2}------------------------------------------------ DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH & HUMAN SERVICES Image /page/2/Picture/1 description: The image shows the logo for the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.
