DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. This device is to be used with autogenous bone graft. The Atlas Spine Spacer is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) weeks of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. The Atlas Spine Spacer is indicated for intervertebral body fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2-S1. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels(s). This device is to be used with autogenous bone graft. The Atlas Spine Spacer is to be used with supplemental fixation. Patients should have at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment prior to treatment with an intervertebral cage. Vertebral Body Replacement: When used as a vertebral body replacement, the Atlas Spine Spacer is intended for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) for partial or complete replacement (i.e., vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The Atlas Spine Spacer is also indicated for treating fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine. The Atlas Spine Spacer is designed to restore the biomechanical integrity of the anterior, middle and posterior spinal column, even in the absence of fusion for a prolonged period of time. The interior of the Atlas Spine Spacer can be packed with bone. This device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the thoracic and/or lumbar spine (i.e., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, anterior plate systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). ## Device Story Rectangular, radiolucent intervertebral body fusion device/vertebral body replacement; includes four radiopaque markers for postoperative radiographic positioning confirmation. Designed for surgical implantation by surgeons to restore spinal column biomechanical integrity; interior packable with autogenous bone graft. Requires use with supplemental spinal fixation systems (e.g., pedicle screws, rods, plates). Used in clinical settings for DDD, tumor-related vertebrectomy, or spinal fractures. Benefits include spinal height restoration and anterior decompression. ## Clinical Evidence Bench testing only. Pre-clinical data per ASTM F2077 submitted to characterize device performance. ## Technological Characteristics Rectangular, radiolucent intervertebral spacer; includes four radiopaque markers for radiographic visualization. Materials and design are equivalent to predicate devices. Performance testing conducted per ASTM F2077. ## 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 - Atlas Spine Vertebral Body Replacement ([K063464](/device/K063464.md)) - IMPIX Interbody Device ([K072226](/device/K072226.md)) ## Submission Summary (Full Text) > This content was OCRed from public FDA records by [Innolitics](https://innolitics.com).
