## Indications for Use

The Tempo Smart Button is intended to detect, store, and transfer insulin dose-related data from a Tempo Pen to a compatible application.

## Device Story

Tempo Smart Button is a reusable data transmitter that attaches to a disposable Tempo Pen; detects and stores insulin dose-related data; transfers data via Bluetooth to a compatible mobile application (e.g., myTempo App). Used by patients 18+ with diabetes in home environments. Mobile app displays insulin brand, dose amount, date, and time. Device assists patients in tracking insulin administration history; supports clinical decision-making by providing accurate dose logs to healthcare providers. Does not control dosing; does not contact drug.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluated per ISO 10993-1 (biocompatibility), IEC 60601-1/1-2/1-11 (electrical safety/EMC), and ISO 11608-1 (dose accuracy). Software verification/validation performed per FDA guidance. Human factors validation study confirmed safe/effective use by intended population in simulated use scenarios.

## Technological Characteristics

Reusable electronic module; attaches to Tempo Pen. Materials meet ISO 10993-1 for intact skin contact. Bluetooth connectivity. Non-rechargeable battery. Folded flex circuit architecture. Complies with IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-2, and IEC 60601-1-11. Software meets IEC 62304 requirements.

## Regulatory 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.

Dear Marcia Arentz:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate 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) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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 located 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.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's

{1}------------------------------------------------

requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reportingcombination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (OS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

Also, please note the regulation entitled, "Misbranding by reference to premarket notification" (21 CFR Part 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reportingmdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

When attached to a Tempo Pen, the Tempo Smart Button has the same intended use and similar indications, technological characteristics, and principles of operation as the predicate device. The intended user group of the subject module falls within the intended user group of the predicate pen. The minor differences in technological characteristics do not raise different questions of safety or effectiveness.

## VII. Nonclinical Performance Data

Biocompatibility: The module was evaluated according to the criteria in ISO 10993-1:2018 Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1 : Evaluation and Testing. All patient-contact components passed the cytotoxicity, sensitization, and irritation testing requirements.

Electromagnetic Compatibility and Electrical Safety: The module was evaluated according to the electrical safety and electromagnetic compatibility criteria in IEC 60601-1 Medical Electrical Equipment, Part 1: General Requirements For Basic Safety And Essential Performance and IEC 60601-1-2 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1-2: General Requirements For Basic Safety And Essential Performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic Compatibility -Requirements And Tests. The module complies with IEC 60601-1-11 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1-11: General Requirements For Basic Safety And Essential Performance -Collateral Standard: Requirements For Medical Electrical Equipment And Medical Electrical Systems Used In The Home Healthcare Environment.

Software Verification and Validation: Lilly conducted software verification and validation and provided documentation in accordance with FDA Guidance for the Content of Premarket Submissions for Software Contained in Medical Devices (2005).

Cybersecurity: Lilly evaluated cybersecurity in accordance with FDA Guidance Content of Premarket Submissions for Management of Cybersecurity in Medical Devices (2014 and 2018 Draft) and identified no unacceptable or uncontrolled security verification test findings.

Bench Testing: Testing confirms that the module does not impact Tempo Pen compliance to specifications for dialing torque, injection force, and dose accuracy, nor does it impact Tempo Pen compliance to ISO 11608-1. Needle-Based Injection Systems For Medical Use -Requirements And Test Methods – Part 1: Needle-Based Injection Systems.

Lilly completed module testing for general design requirements, mechanical characterization, and accuracy of electronic dose capture. In all instances, the module met the acceptance criteria.

Risk Management: Lilly's Quality System complies with the requirements of ISO 14971:2012 Medical devices - Application of risk management to medical devices. Lilly followed applicable procedures during development of the module and app.

### VIII. Human Factors Performance Data

Lilly developed the user interface (UI) through a comprehensive Human Factors (HF) Engineering Process. In the HF Validation Test, intended users successfully completed a series of simulated use scenarios used to evaluate critical tasks. which demonstrated that the module is safe and effective for the intended use by the intended user population in the intended use

environments.

### IX. Conclusions

The subject device is substantially equivalent to the predicate device because it has the same intended use, indications for use that fall within those of the predicate device, and minor differences in technological characteristics that do not raise different questions of safety and effectiveness. Performance data demonstrate substantial equivalence.
