Intended Use

ALTAPORE SHAPE is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., extremities, pelvis and posterolateral spine). ALTAPORE SHAPE must be used in combination with autograft as a bone graft extender in posterolateral spinal fusion procedures. These osseous defects are surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. ALTAPORE resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process.

Device Story

Altapore Shape is a bioactive, osteoconductive bone void filler consisting of silicate-substituted calcium phosphate microgranules (1-2 mm) suspended in an absorbable alkylene oxide co-polymer carrier. Supplied as a sterile, wax-like putty in various cylinder and strip sizes. Used by surgeons in clinical settings to fill skeletal voids or as an autograft extender in spinal fusion. The device does not set in-situ. It acts as a scaffold for new bone growth; the apatite layer forms upon contact with body fluids, facilitating cell-mediated remodeling and eventual replacement by natural bone. Benefits include support for bone healing in non-structural defects.

Clinical Evidence

No new clinical data provided. Substantial equivalence is supported by bench testing and preclinical animal studies previously conducted for the predicate (K181225) and reference (K082575) devices. Animal studies evaluated effectiveness in posterolateral fusion and extremity defect models using radiographic, histopathological, histomorphometric, and mechanical analyses. Biocompatibility testing was performed per ISO 10993-1, including cytotoxicity, sensitization, irritation, systemic toxicity, pyrogenicity, genotoxicity, and implantation.

Technological Characteristics

Bioactive silicate-substituted calcium phosphate microgranules (Ca, P, O, H, Si) in an absorbable alkylene oxide co-polymer carrier. Total porosity 80-85%; interconnected porous structure. Supplied as sterile, non-setting putty. Sterilized via radiation per ANSI/AAMI/ISO 11137-2. Shelf life 5 years.

Indications for Use

Indicated for filling bony voids or gaps in the skeletal system (extremities, pelvis, posterolateral spine) in patients with surgically created or traumatic osseous defects not intrinsic to bony stability. Must be used with autograft as a bone graft extender in posterolateral spinal fusion.

Predicate and Reference Devices ## DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE: ALTAPORE SHAPE is a bioactive and osteoconductive silicate-substituted calcium phosphate bone void filler. The interconnected and open porous structure of the silicatesubstituted calcium phosphate phase of ALTAPORE SHAPE is similar to human cancellous bone and is intended to support bone growth with macro and micro-porosity. The microgranule phase ALTAPORE SHAPE is composed solely of elements that exist naturally in normal bone (Ca, P, O, H, Si). ALTAPORE SHAPE is supplied as a shaped wax-like putty in a sterile pouch containing ALTAPORE microgranules, sized 1-2 mm, 80-85% total porosity, suspended in an absorbable Alkylene Oxide co-polymer carrier. ALTAPORE does not set in-situ following implantation. ALTAPORE is available as a 1.6 ml small cylinder, 2.6 ml medium cylinder, 8 ml large cylinder, and 15.8 ml large strip. ALTAPORE SHAPE is designed for use as a standalone bone graft substitute or as an autograft extender. While not necessary, the product can be mixed with autologous blood or autologous bone at the discretion of the surgeon. ALTAPORE SHAPE is bioactive based on in vitro studies that show it forms a surface apatite-layer when submerged in simulated body fluid that contains the same ion concentrations as human blood plasma. This apatite layer provides scaffolding onto which the patient's new bone will grow, allowing complete repair of the defect. ALTAPORE SHAPE is osteoconductive based on in vivo animal studies that show it achieves bone healing in a critical defect model as confirmed with radiographic, {5}------------------------------------------------ Image /page/5/Picture/1 description: The image shows the word "Baxter" in a stylized, bold, blue font. The word is slightly slanted to the right, giving it a dynamic appearance. The font is sans-serif, and the letters are closely spaced together. histolopathological, histomorphometric, and mechanical analyses. ALTAPORE SHAPE undergoes cell-mediated remodeling and is replaced by natural bone. #### INDICATIONS FOR USE ALTAPORE SHAPE is an implant intended to fill bony voids or gaps of the skeletal system (i.e., extremities, pelvis and posterolateral spine). ALTAPORE SHAPE must be used in combination with autograft as a bone graft extender in posterolateral spinal fusion procedures. These osseous defects are surgically created or the result of traumatic injury to the bone and are not intrinsic to the stability of the bony structure. ALTAPORE resorbs and is replaced with bone during the healing process. ## PURPOSE OF SUBMISSION The purpose of this submission is to introduce the ALTAPORE SHAPE bone void filler to the market.
