## Intended Use

The Paramount™ IBF device, when used with autogenous bone graft, is indicated for use in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. Paramount™ IBF devices are to be implanted via a direct posterior or transforaminal approach. The Paramount™ IBF device may be used singly or in pairs in the lumbosacral spine with or without supplemental fixation, such as the Paramount™ Pedicle Screw System.

## Device Story

Paramount™ Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is a PEEK-OPTIMA® implant designed for spinal fusion. Implanted via direct posterior or transforaminal approach in the lumbosacral spine; used singly or in pairs with autogenous bone graft. May be used with supplemental fixation (e.g., Paramount™ Pedicle Screw System). Intended to stabilize the spinal segment in patients with DDD; facilitates fusion to alleviate discogenic back pain. Surgeon-operated in clinical/surgical settings.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical performance evaluated per ASTM F2077, ASTM F2267, and ASTM F-04.25.02.02. Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: PEEK-OPTIMA®. Form factor: Various widths, heights, angles, and lengths. Energy source: None (mechanical implant). Sterilization: Provided sterile (implant); instruments provided non-sterile for steam sterilization. Standards: ASTM F2077, ASTM F2267, ASTM F-04.25.02.02, ISO 10993.

## Regulatory Identification

An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.

## Special Controls

*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval.
(c)
*Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.

TRADE NAME: Paramount™ Intervertebral Body Fusion Device

FDA CLASSIFICATION / CODE: 888.3080 / MAX

DEVICE DESCRIPTION: The Paramount™ Intervertebral Body Fusion Device is made of PEEK-OPTIMA®. The implant is offered in various widths, heights, angles and lengths to meet individual patient anatomy. The devices are provided sterile and the instruments are provided clean and non-sterile for steam sterilization at the user's facility.

INTENDED USE: The Paramount™ IBF device, when used with autogenous bone graft, is indicated for use in patients with Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment.

Paramount™ IBF devices are to be implanted via a direct posterior or transforaminal approach. The Paramount™ IBF device may be used singly or in pairs in the lumbosacral spine with or without supplemental fixation, such as the Paramount™ Pedicle Screw System.

PREDICATE DEVICES: The predicate devices include: Innovative Spinal Technologies. Inc. Paramount™ VBR System (K062759) and Centerpulse/ Zimmer Spine, Inc. BAK™ Interbody Fusion System (P950002).

PERFORMANCE DATA: The mechanical test results based on ASTM F2077, ASTM F2267, and ASTM F-04.25.02.02 demonstrate that the Paramount™ Intervertebral Body Fusion Device can be expected to perform in a manner substantially equivalent to the predicate devices. In addition, biocompatibility of the device was demonstrated via testing per ISO10993.
