Intended Use

SpineFab® Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System is intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e. fracture). The VBR device is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft bone graft material and must be used with supplemental fixation systems.

Device Story

SpineFab® VBR is a non-custom vertebral body replacement implant; manufactured via additive manufacturing using polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) polymer; includes tantalum radiographic markers for visualization. Implant features open shaft for bone graft (autograft/allograft) placement; teeth-like structures engage vertebral endplates for stabilization. Device used in thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) surgery; implanted by surgeons to replace damaged/unstable vertebrae. Shipped non-sterile; requires steam sterilization per ANSI/AAMI ST79. Provides structural support to spinal column; facilitates fusion when used with bone graft and supplemental fixation.

Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Evaluated per ASTM F2077-11 (intervertebral body fusion devices), ASTM F2267-04(2011) (subsidence), and ASTM draft F-04.25.02.02 (static expulsion). Finite element analysis confirmed worst-case design (tallest/smallest cross-section). Biocompatibility testing performed per ISO 10993-3, 5, 6, 10, 11, and 18.

Technological Characteristics

Material: Polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) polymer with tantalum markers. Manufacturing: Additive manufacturing. Design: 48 variations across 6 configurations (Small/Medium/Large Parallel/Lordotic). Mechanical testing per ASTM F2077-11, ASTM F2267-04(2011), and ASTM draft F-04.25.02.02. Sterilization: Steam (ANSI/AAMI ST79).

Indications for Use

Indicated for patients with collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral bodies in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) resulting from tumor or trauma (fracture). Requires use with autograft/allograft bone graft and supplemental fixation systems.

Regulatory Classification

Identification

A spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis is a device intended to be implanted made of titanium. It consists of various vertebral plates that are punched into each of a series of vertebral bodies. An eye-type screw is inserted in a hole in the center of each of the plates. A braided cable is threaded through each eye-type screw. The cable is tightened with a tension device and it is fastened or crimped at each eye-type screw. The device is used to apply force to a series of vertebrae to correct “sway back,” scoliosis (lateral curvature of the spine), or other conditions.

P.O. Box 585 30 South Satellite Road South Windsor, CT 06074 1-860-698-9300 Contact Person: Leigh Ayres, Director of Scientific and Regulatory Affairs Date of 510(k) summary statement preparation: July 9, 2015 Proprietary name: SpineFab® Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System Common or Usual Name: Spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis Classification: 21 CFR 888.3060 Review Panel: Orthopedic Medical Device Classification: Class 2 Product Code: MQP Predicate Devices: the Choice Spine Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System (K120570) (primary) and the Pioneer Surgical Technology, Inc. MaxFuse VBR System (K131724). ### Description of the Device The SpineFab® VBR implant is a non-custom implant. The SpineFab® VBR Implants consist of 48 different variations and each one of six different configurations (Small Parallel, Medium Parallel, Large Parallel, Small Lordotic, Medium Lordotic, and Large Lordotic) with the only difference on each configuration being the height. This device is manufactured using polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) polymer using additive manufacturing and contains tantalum radiographic markers. The implants have an open shaft to allow for the placement of allograft or autograft. The implants have several other features: - Notches that are an aid to implant insertion, - Tantalum markers which allow for easy radiographic visualization, and - Teeth-like structures meant to engage the vertebral endplates for stabilization in vivo. SpineFab® Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System is shipped non-sterile and the sterilization recommendations documented in the instructions for use (IFU) are according to ANSI/AAMI ST79 "Comprehensive Guide to Steam Sterility Assurance in Health Care Facilities" have been validated. {4}------------------------------------------------ ## Intended Use Statement SpineFab® Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System is intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) to replace a collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral body due to tumor or trauma (i.e. fracture). The VBR device is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft bone graft material and must be used with supplemental fixation systems. ## Biocompatibility Biocompatibility tests were selected according to the FDA guidance document: "Use of International Standard ISO-10993, "Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices Part 1: Evaluation and Testing" (1995) and the test results obtained from PEKK test specimens were found to be within acceptance criteria described in the ISO 10993-3, 5, 6, 10, 11, and 18 standards. ## Performance Testing - Bench Testing ### COMPRESSION, TORSION, SUBSIDENCE, AND EXPULSION This testing was required by UCM072518 "FDA Guidance for Industry and FDA Staff Spinal System 510(k)s" dated 2004. Based on the 2004 guidance, the test specimen design (15x12x50 mm) was the worst case design because it was the "tallest with the smallest cross sectional area." This was confirmed utilizing finite element analysis. Testing was performed according to: - a. ASTM F2077-11 "Test Methods for Intervertebral Body Fusion Devices," ASTM F2267-04(2011) "Standard Test Method for Measuring Load Induced Subsidence b. of Intervertebral Body Fusion Device Under Static Axial Compression," and - ASTM draft F-04.25.02.02: Static Expulsion C. ## Comparison of Technological Characteristics with Predicate Devices The SpineFab® VBR device is substantially equivalent in safety and effectiveness to two other predicate devices cleared by the FDA under 21 CFR 888.3060 spinal intervertebral body fixation orthosis. Those two predicate devices are: the Choice Spine Vertebral Body Replacement (VBR) System (K120570) and the Pioneer Surgical Technology, Inc. MaxFuse VBR System (K131724). Information about the two predicate devices described in this section 5 of this 510(k) submission was obtained from the 510(k) summary documents posted on the FDA 510(k) premarket notification access database. The intended use statements are substantially equivalent because the scopes of the predicate intended use statements include the intended use statement for the subject device in terms of the location in the spine (T1-L5) and function (vertebral body replacement). > Section 5 – SpineFab VBR 510(k) Summary 2015Jul09-1 Page 2 of 3 {5}------------------------------------------------ The two predicates and the subject devices are substantially equivalent in that they are made from Polyaryletherketone (PAEK) polymers. The two predicates are made from polyetheretherketone (PEEK) polymer and the subject device is made from polyetherketoneketone (PEKK) polymer. The basic design of the two predicates is substantially equivalent regarding sizes, configurations, toothed surfaces, and the acceptance of bone graft material. The mechanical testing evaluations were substantially equivalent in that the two predicates and the subject device were evaluated according to ASTM standards for static and dynamic axial compression bending, static and dynamic torsion, static subsidence, and static expulsion. ### Conclusion Based on the information provided in the submission, including comparison and bench testing; the SpineFab® VBR device was determined to be substantially equivalent in terms of safety and effectiveness to predicates devices cleared by the FDA.
