Intended Use

The VyBrate-L™ 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 VyBrate-L™ VBR device is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft bone graft material and must be used with supplemental fixation systems. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is a vertebral body replacement device indicated for use in the cervical spine (C3-C7 vertebral bodies) in skeletally mature patients to replace a diseased or damaged vertebral body caused by tumor, fracture, or osteomyelitis, or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in cervical degenerative disorders. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation cleared by the FDA for use in the cervical spine. These implants are intended for use with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft, as an adjunct to fusion. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon’s discretion.

Device Story

Spinal spacer implant; inserts between vertebral bodies in anterior column of thoracolumbar or cervical spine; replaces collapsed, damaged, or unstable vertebral bodies; used in surgical setting by orthopedic or neurosurgeons; requires supplemental fixation; provides structural support to spinal column; facilitates fusion; restores spinal integrity in advanced tumor cases where fusion is not achievable; manufactured from OXPEKK with Tantalum markers.

Clinical Evidence

No clinical data. Substantial equivalence supported by non-clinical mechanical testing (static/dynamic axial compression, torsion, compressive shear, expulsion, and subsidence) performed on the predicate device (K142005) as a worst-case representative.

Technological Characteristics

Spinal vertebral body replacement spacer; material: OXPEKK with Tantalum markers; non-software, non-electrical; mechanical fixation via supplemental systems; intended for use with autograft/allograft bone graft.

Indications for Use

Indicated for skeletally mature patients requiring vertebral body replacement in the thoracolumbar (T1-L5) or cervical (C3-C7) spine due to tumor, trauma (fracture), or osteomyelitis; also for reconstruction following corpectomy for cervical degenerative disorders; intended for use with autograft/allograft bone graft and supplemental fixation.

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.

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 available 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. Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device" U.S. Food & Drug Administration 10903 New Hampshire Avenue Silver Spring, MD 20993 www.fda.gov {1} K253158 - Jordan Hendrickson Page 2 (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and "Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device" (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

The VyBrate™ VBR System is equivalent to these commercially available devices in terms of material, intended use, levels of attachment, size range, and use with supplemental fixation. Device Description The Vy Spine™ VyBrate™ VBR System is comprised of implants components. The implant component, the VyBrate™ VBR device, is a spacer, which inserts between vertebral bodies in the anterior column of the thoracolumbar or cervical spine. The spacer is made of OXPEKK with Tantalum markers. Intended Use/Indications for Use The VyBrate-L™ 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 VyBrate-L™ VBR device is intended for use with autograft and/or allograft bone graft material and must be used with supplemental fixation systems. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is a vertebral body replacement device indicated for use in the cervical spine (C3-C7 vertebral bodies) in skeletally mature patients to replace a diseased or damaged vertebral body caused by tumor, fracture, or osteomyelitis, or for reconstruction following corpectomy performed to achieve decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues in cervical degenerative disorders. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is intended to be used with supplemental fixation cleared by the FDA for use in the cervical spine. {5} K253158 Page 2 of 2 These implants are intended for use with autograft or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft, as an adjunct to fusion. The VyBrate-C™ VBR System is also intended to restore the integrity of the spinal column even in the absence of fusion for a limited time period in patients with advanced stage tumors involving the cervical spine in whom life expectancy is of insufficient duration to permit achievement of fusion, with bone graft used at the surgeon’s discretion. ## Non-Clinical Testing The Oxford Performance Materials SpineFab VBR (K142005) has undergone Non-Clinical Testing using various ASTM Standards at a third party facility. Mechanical testing was performed on the Oxford Performance Materials SpineFab VBR following ASTM F-2077, ASTM F-2267, and ASTM Draft F-04.25.02.02 standards. These mechanical tests included static axial compression, dynamic axial compression, static axial torsion, dynamic axial torsion, static compressive shear, dynamic compressive shear, expulsion, and subsidence. Sterilization validations have also been performed. The SpineFab testing was used because it was determined to be worst-case compared to the subject VyBrate™ VBR System. The subject VyBrate™ VBR System has the same material, design, sizes, indication of use & biocompatibility as the predicate devices. ## Technological Characteristics The subject Vy Spine™ VyBrate™ VBR System is substantially equivalent to other predicate devices cleared by the FDA for commercial distribution in the United States. The subject device was shown to have equivalent technological characteristics to its predicate devices through comparison in areas including design, intended use, material composition, and function. This device does not contain software or electrical equipment.
