The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolithesis at the involved level(s). Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history or radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of nonoperative treatment. The SpineFrontier Lumbar Intervertebral Body Fusion Device System is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation system(s) cleared for use in the lumbar spine. ## Device Story SpineFrontier Lumbar IBF System consists of intervertebral body fusion cages designed for lumbar spinal fusion. Devices are implanted by surgeons in an OR setting to treat degenerative disc disease. Cages are manufactured from PEEK Optima LT1; feature raised surface contours to resist migration; and are available in various dimensions to match patient anatomy. The system requires autogenous bone graft to promote fusion and must be used in conjunction with cleared supplemental spinal fixation systems. The device provides structural support to the intervertebral space to facilitate fusion; benefits include stabilization of the spinal segment and potential reduction of discogenic back pain. ## Clinical Evidence No clinical data was required or provided for this device. Substantial equivalence was established through bench testing, including static and dynamic axial compression, static torsion, static and dynamic shear compression, subsidence, and static expulsion testing. ## Technological Characteristics Materials: PEEK Optima LT1. Design: Intervertebral body fusion cages with raised superior/inferior surface contours. Testing standards: ASTM F2077-03 (axial compression, torsion, shear), ASTM F2267-04 (subsidence), and ASTM Draft Standard F-04.25.02.02 (expulsion). ## 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. ## Predicate Devices - Dorado Intervertebral Body Cage ([K072289](/device/K072289.md)) - Dorado Wide IBF ([K091638](/device/K091638.md)) - S-LIF IBF ([K092815](/device/K092815.md)) - Lucent ([K071724](/device/K071724.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).

Device Description The SpineFrontier Lumbar IBF System is a spinal intervertebral body fusion device system intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine of skeletally mature patients, using autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The system is comprised of devices made of PEEK Optima® LT1, with varying widths, lengths, and heights to fit the anatomical needs of patients. The devices have raised contours on the superior and inferior surfaces that will resist device movement following implant. - 5. Intended Use {1}------------------------------------------------ The SpineFrontier Lumbar Interbody Fusion Device System (Dorado IBC, Dorado PLIF, Dorado ELIF, Dorado ALIF, Dorado TILT, Dorado TLIF, Dorado Wide, and Ursa S-LIF) is intended for intervertebral body fusion of the spine of skeletally mature patients, using autogenous bone graft to facilitate fusion. The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolithesis at the involved level(s). Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history or radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of nonoperative treatment.

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 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 {3}------------------------------------------------ Page 2 -- Ms. Framman Polev comply with all the Act s requirements, including, bat not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical device-related adverse events) (21 CFR 803); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the quality systems (QS) regulation (21 CFR Part 820): and if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR 1000-1050.

The device is indicated for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous spinal levels from L2-S1. These DDD patients mav also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolithesis at the involved level(s). Degenerative disc disease is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history or radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of non-operative treatment. The SpineFrontier Lumbar Intervertebral Body Fusion Device System is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation system(s) cleared for use in the lumbar spine.
