Intended Use
The Signature Orthopaedics Brisbane ALIF and Gladstone ALIF systems are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of nonoperative treatment. Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the treated level may be treated. These implants may be implanted via a laparoscopic or an open anterior approach. The Brisbane and Gladstone ALIF systems may be used as stand-alone devices or in conjunction with supplemental fixation. When used as a stand-alone device the subject devices must be used with all three screws.
Device Story
Intervertebral body fusion devices (cages) designed for lumbar spine stabilization. Cages feature wedge-shaped geometry to restore lordosis and hollow centers for autogenous bone graft loading. Brisbane and Gladstone systems include titanium alloy screws for stand-alone fixation; Brisbane cage includes titanium plasma spray coating. Implants are inserted by surgeons via open or laparoscopic anterior approach to treat degenerative disc disease. Devices provide structural support to vertebral bodies during fusion process. Benefit includes stabilization of spinal segments and potential reduction of discogenic back pain.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of non-clinical bench testing and engineering evaluations, including Finite Element Analysis (FEA) to identify worst-case configurations. Testing included static/dynamic compression, compression shear (ASTM-F2077), subsidence (ASTM-F2267), and screw mechanical testing (ASTM-F543). Coating characterization performed per ASTM-F1580, F1854-09, F1044-05, F1147-05, F1160-05, and F1978-00.
Technological Characteristics
Cages: PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 (ASTM-F2026). Screws: Ti6Al4V alloy (ISO 5832-3, ASTM-F136). Brisbane cage coating: Titanium Plasma Spray (ASTM-F1580). Design: Wedge-shaped, hollow for bone graft, serrated surfaces. Stand-alone capability via three-screw fixation. Sterilization not specified.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1, including those with up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis. Requires six months of failed nonoperative treatment. Used with autogenous bone graft via laparoscopic or open anterior approach.
Regulatory Classification
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.

### Device Description:
The Signature Orthopaedics Brisbane ALIF and Gladstone ALIF cages are manufactured from PEEK-OPTIMA LT1 per ASTM-F2026. The Screws for Brisbane and Gladstone ALIF cages are manufactured from Ti6A14V alloy per ISO 5832-3 and ASTM-F136.
The Brisbane and Gladstone ALIF cages consist of a wedge-shaped geometry and intended for implantation by an anterior approach. The cages are hollow to allow loading of bone graft. The cages are wedge shaped to restore lordosis of the fused vertebral bodies. The superior and inferior surfaces have serrated teeth to resist expulsion. The cages have three holes each on their anterior faces to facilitate the use of titanium bone screws. The use of the bone screws make the subject cages stand-alone cages. The superior and inferior
{4}------------------------------------------------
surfaces of Brisbane ALIF cage is Titanium Plasma Spray (TPS) coated per ASTM-F1580.
### Indications for Use
The Signature Orthopaedics Brisbane ALIF and Gladstone ALIF systems are indicated for use with autogenous bone graft in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels from L2 to S1. These DDD patients may also have up to Grade I spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. DDD is defined as discogenic back pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. These patients should be skeletally mature and have had six months of nonoperative treatment. Patients with previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the treated level may be treated. These implants may be implanted via a laparoscopic or an open anterior approach. The Brisbane and Gladstone ALIF systems may be used as stand-alone devices or in conjunction with supplemental fixation. When used as a stand-alone device the subject devices must be used with all three screws.
### Performance Testing:
Non-clinical testing and engineering evaluations were conducted to verify that the performance of the Brisbane ALIF and Gladstone ALIF cages are adequate for anticipated invivo use. Non-clinical testings carried out on the worst case of the two systems as identified Finite Element Analysis (FEA) were:
- Static and dynamic compression and compression shear testing per ASTM-F2077
- . Subsidence testing ASTM-F2267
- . Screw insertion testing per ASTM-F543
- Screw pull-out testing per ASTM-F543
- . Screw torque to failure testing per ASTM-F543
Also the coating on the Brisbane ALIF cage has undergone the following testings:
- Powder Chemistry per ASTM-F1580
- . Coating Chemistry per ASTM-F1580
- . Coating Thickness per ASTM-F1854-09
- . Percent Porosity per ASTM-F1854-09
- . Coating Roughness per ASTM-F854-09
- Static Shear per ASTM-F1044-05
- . Static Tensile per ASTM-F1147-05
- . Shear Fatigue per ASTM-F1160-05
- Abrasion per ASTM-F1978-00
### Substantial Equivalence:
The Brisbane and Gladstone ALIF cages have the same intended use, indication for use, materials and similar design as the Centinel Spine MIDLINE II-Ti™ (K141942), K2M Chesapeake Spinal System (K133494), Spineart DYNAMIK Lumbar Interbody Device (K081888), Benvenue Medical Inc Luna 360 Interbody System (K142023) and Signature Orthopaedics NOOSA Anterior Lumbar Plate Screw (K163625). Non-clinical testing results support the substantial equivalence decision. The subject devices are expected to perform adequately during clinical use.
### Conclusion:
{5}------------------------------------------------
Technical comparison of the subject and predicate devices demonstrates substantial equivalence in device design, intended use, indications for use and material. Non-clinical data support the substantial equivalence of the device.
