## Intended Use

When used as a cervical intervertebral fusion device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C2-T1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device is intended for use with autogenous bone graft and with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the cervical spine (e.g., the Blade® Anterior Cervical Plate System). When used as a lumbar intervertebral fusion device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2-S1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device is intended for use with autogenous bone graft and with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the lumbar spine (e.g., the Inertia Pedicle Screw System). When used as a vertebral body replacement device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors or trauma/fracture in order to achieve anterior decompression of the spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The device is intended for use with autograft or allograft and with supplemental internal fixation systems cleared for use in the thoracolumbar spine (e.g., the Inertia Pedicle Screw System).

## Device Story

HONOUR™ Spacer System consists of radiolucent, hollow structural column implants; used as intervertebral fusion or vertebral body replacement devices. Implants feature serrated superior/inferior surfaces for stability; available in various heights, lengths, widths, and angulations. Used in surgical settings by surgeons; requires supplemental internal fixation systems (e.g., pedicle screws or plates) and bone graft (autograft/allograft). Device restores vertebral height and facilitates fusion/decompression. Benefits include structural support for spinal segments following resection or degeneration.

## Clinical Evidence

Bench testing only. Mechanical performance evaluated via static and dynamic compression and torsion testing per ASTM F2077, and subsidence testing per ASTM F2267. No clinical data provided.

## Technological Characteristics

Material: Polyetheretherketone (Solvay Zeniva® ZA-500 PEEK) per ASTM F2026. Markers: Tantalum per ASTM F560. Design: Hollow structural cage. Energy source: None (mechanical). Connectivity: None. Sterilization: Not specified.

## 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.

Device Description:

Intended Use:

The HONOUR™ Spacer System is a collection of radiolucent cage devices. The basic shape of these implants is a structural column. The superior and inferior surfaces are open with serrations to facilitate implant stability. The implants are available in an assortment of height, length, width and anteroposterior angulation combinations to accommodate a variety of anatomic requirements.

When used as a cervical intervertebral fusion device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use at one level in the cervical spine, from C2-T1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six weeks of non-operative treatment for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as neck pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device is intended for use with autogenous bone graft and with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the cervical spine (e.g., the Blade® Anterior Cervical Plate System).

When used as a lumbar intervertebral fusion device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use at one or two contiguous levels in the lumbar spine, from L2-S1, in skeletally mature patients who have had six months of non-operative treatment for the treatment of degenerative disc disease (DDD) with up to Grade spondylolisthesis. DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The device is intended for use with autogenous graft and with supplemental fixation systems cleared for use in the lumbar spine (e.g., the Inertia® Pedicle Screw System).

When used as a vertebral body replacement device, the HONOUR™ devices are indicated for use in the thoracolumbar spine (T1-L5) for partial replacement (i.e., partial vertebrectomy) of a diseased vertebral body resected or excised for the treatment of tumors or trauma/fracture in order to achieve anterior decompression of the

spinal cord and neural tissues, and to restore the height of a collapsed vertebral body. The device is intended for use with autograft or allograft and with supplemental internal fixation systems cleared for use in the thoracolumbar spine (e.g., the Inertia® Pedicle Screw System).

Materials:

HONOUR™ Spacers are manufactured from polyetheretherketone (Solvay Zeniva® ZA-500 PEEK) per ASTM F2026. Integral marker pins are manufactured from tantalum according to ASTM F560.

Predicate Devices:

Lumbar I/F Cage® (P960025)

AVS PEEK Spacers (K042571, K050624, K061836, K062132, K073470, K082014, K083661 and K093704)

Stealth™ (K091531)

Construx™ (K051246)

Pillar™ PL/TL (K081177)

#### Technological Characteristics:

The HONOUR™ Spacer System devices possess the same technological characteristics as the predicate devices. These include:

- intended use (as described above), .
- basic design (hollow structural frame), .
- material (polymer or CFRP), and .
- sizes (widths, lengths and heights are within the range(s) offered . by the predicate systems).

Therefore the fundamental scientific technology of the HONOUR™ Spacer System devices is the same as previously cleared devices.

#### Performance Data:

Mechanical testing of the worst case HONOUR spacer was performed according to ASTM F2077 and included static and dynamic compression and static and dynamic torsion. In addition, the subsidence properties were evaluated according to ASTM F2267.

The mechanical test results demonstrate that the HONOUR™ Spacer System devices perform as well as or better than the predicate devices. Hence these devices are as safe and as effective as the predicates.
