PROW FUSION-V is an interbody fusion device intended for use in patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels of the lumbosacral spine (L2-S1). 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 at least six (6) months of non-operative treatment. In addition, these patients may have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved level(s). PROW FUSION-V is to be filled with autogenous bone graft material. The device is intended to be used with supplemental fixation.
Device Story
PROW FUSION-V is an expandable interbody fusion device designed for lumbar spinal fusion. It is inserted into the disc space following discectomy to provide structural stability. The device features an expandable mechanism allowing adjustment to desired height or lordosis; superior and inferior surface protrusions grip vertebral endplates to resist expulsion. It is filled with autogenous bone graft to promote fusion and must be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems. The device is intended for use by surgeons in a clinical/OR setting. By restoring disc height and providing stability, it facilitates spinal fusion and alleviates discogenic back pain.
Clinical Evidence
No clinical data. Evidence consists of bench testing including static and dynamic compression, static and dynamic compression-shear (ASTM F2077), and subsidence (ASTM F2267). Additional testing included max expansion force, wear particle assessment, and a cadaveric study to evaluate device placement, graft containment, and endplate integrity.
Technological Characteristics
Manufactured from titanium alloy (ASTM F136). Expandable interbody fusion device with superior/inferior surface protrusions for endplate fixation. Requires supplemental spinal fixation. Mechanical testing performed per ASTM F2077 and ASTM F2267.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels of the lumbosacral spine (L2-S1), with or without Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis, who have failed at least six months of non-operative treatment.
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.
(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.

Dear Dr. Smith:
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. 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.
