## Intended Use

To provide the surgeon with a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C2 to T1) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) of the cervical spine. Implants are to be packed with autogenous bone graft. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. The Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is to be used with a supplemental fixation system.

## Device Story

The Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is an implantable titanium alloy device designed for cervical intervertebral body fusion. Used by surgeons in clinical settings, the spacer is packed with autogenous bone graft and implanted at a single level (C2-T1) to facilitate spinal fusion. The device requires use with a supplemental fixation system to stabilize the construct. By maintaining disc space height and promoting fusion, the device aims to alleviate symptoms of degenerative disc disease. It is intended for patients who have failed six months of non-operative treatment.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data was required or provided to determine substantial equivalence. Evidence is based on bench testing per ASTM F2077-03 (static/dynamic compression, compressive shear, torsion, expulsion) and ASTM F2267-04 (subsidence).

## Technological Characteristics

Manufactured from titanium alloy. Designed for cervical intervertebral fusion. Dimensions are similar to the predicate device. Performance testing conducted per ASTM F2077-03 and ASTM F2267-04. No software or electronic components.

## 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.

The Bright Spine Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is an implantable device manufactured from titanium alloy

To provide the surgeon with a cervical intervertebral body fusion device, intended for spinal fusion procedures at one level (C2 to TI) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies) of the cervical spine. Implants are to be packed with autogenous bone graft. These patients should have had six months of non-operative treatment. The Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is to be used with a supplemental fixation system.

Technological Characteristics and Comparison to Predicate:

Performance Data:

The Bright Spine Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is manufactured from equivalent materials, with similar dimensions, to achieve the same surgical objectives as the predicate Novel® Spinal Spacer System.

When used as designed, the Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System functions in as safe and effective a manner as the predicate device. Complies with ASTM F2077-03 and ASTM F2267-04 Performance Testing.

ASTM F2077-03 Includes:

Static and dynamic compression, compressive shear, torsion and expulsion

ASTM F2267-04 Includes: Subsidence

The Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System was shown to be substantially equivalent to the predicate system.

Clinical Data:

It was determined that Clinical Data was not required to determine substantial equivalence.

The Bright Spine Galileo™ Spinal Spacer System is safe and effective and is Conclusion: substantially equivalent to the predicate device.

Dear Mr. Simonson:

We have reviewed your Section 510(k) premarket notification of intent to market the device referenced above and have determined the device is substantially equivalent (for the indications for use stated in the enclosure) to legally marketed predicate devices marketed in interstate commerce prior to May 28, 1976, the enactment date of the Medical Device Amendments, or to devices that have been reclassified in accordance with the provisions of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (Act) that do not require approval of a premarket approval application (PMA). 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.
