Intended Use
The Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one-disc level from C2-T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The system is designed for use with supplemental fixation (i.e. cleared cervical plating system) and with autograft to facilitate fusion. These patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment.
Device Story
Intervertebral body fusion device for cervical spine; provides biomechanical support via integrated fixation. System consists of PEEK or titanium alloy interbodies and titanium alloy bone anchors. Surgeon inserts device into disc space following discectomy; anchors deployed through interbody channels into adjacent vertebrae to stabilize spine during fusion. Integrated titanium locking mechanism provides visual feedback of anchor securement. Used in clinical settings by surgeons; requires supplemental cervical plating. Benefits include enhanced stabilization during fusion process.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. No clinical data provided. Mechanical testing performed per ASTM F2077-11 (static/dynamic axial compression, compressive-shear, torsion), ASTM F2267-04 (static subsidence), and ASTM draft standard F-04.25.02.02 (expulsion). Locking mechanism force testing also conducted.
Technological Characteristics
Materials: PEEK (ASTM F2026), Tantalum markers (ASTM F560), Ti6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy (ASTM F136). Integrated fixation via bone anchors. Available in various footprints, heights, and configurations (parallel, lordotic, convex). Mechanical locking mechanism for anchors.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with cervical degenerative disc disease (DDD) and radicular symptoms at one level (C2-T1). Requires six weeks of failed non-operative treatment. Used with autograft and supplemental cervical plating.

## DESCRIPTION OF THE DEVICE SUBJECT TO PREMARKET NOTIFICATION:
The Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System includes PEEK interbodies and titanium interbodies, which utilize an integrated titanium alloy locking mechanism. Both PEEK interbodies and titanium interbodies are to be anchored to patient anatomy via two (2) titanium allov bone anchors. The Cervical Anchored Interbody System (AIS-C) was designed to provide additional biomechanical strength to traditional ACDF procedures through integrated fixation combined with supplemental fixation.
#### INDICATIONS FOR USE
The Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System is indicated for use in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) of the cervical spine with accompanying radicular symptoms at one-disc level from C2-T1. DDD is defined as discogenic pain with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. The system is designed for use with supplemental fixation (i.e. cleared cervical plating system) and with autograft to facilitate fusion. These patients should have had six weeks of non-operative treatment.
### TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICES
The Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System is comprised of two versions of interbodies, each of which are secured by integrated fixation Anchors. The interbodies are available in a PEEK configuration with tantalum markers or in a titanium alloy version. Both versions use the same integrated titanium alloy locking mechanism. The interbodies are to be available in several footprints, configurations, and heights. The titanium alloy cervical bone Anchors provide integrated fixation for the system and are to be offered in various lengths. The bone Anchors are deployed through the channels in the interbody and embed into the adjacent cervical vertebrae. The system is to be inserted after cervical discectomy and the integrated fixation provides additional stabilization to the spine during fusion.
The PEEK interbody devices are made of polyether-ether-ketone (Invibio's PEEK Optima LT1) that conforms to ASTM F2026. Additionally, the PEEK implants contain tantalum markers per ASTM F560 to assist the surgeon with proper placement of the device in the disk space. The titanium alloy interbody devices, anchor locking mechanism, and the bone anchor components are manufactured from medical grade Ti6Al-4V ELI titanium alloy per ASTM F136.
{5}------------------------------------------------
The subject and predicate devices are based on the following same technological elements:
- Integrated fixation Anchors provide additional biomechanical support to the interbody
- . Devices are offered in the same sizes and shapes (parallel, lordotic, and convex) which provide surgeons options to suit the patient's anatomy
- . Implants materials are identical: PEEK, Titanium 6Al-4V ELI allov, and Tantalum
- Use of a single inserter instrument to position the interbodies and deploy the Anchors ●
The following technological differences exist between the subject and predicate devices:
- Integrated titanium locking mechanism that provides visual feedback of Anchor securement
#### PERFORMANCE DATA
The predetermined pass-fail criterion was that the mechanical test results for the Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System be equivalent to (or greater than) previously cleared interbody fusion systems. Prior to performing mechanical testing, all possible configurations of the AIS-C System constructs were analyzed in order to determine the worst case to be used for testing.
The Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System was tested in static and dynamic axial compression, compressive-shear, and torsion per ASTM F2077-11, static subsidence per ASTM F2267-04, and expulsion testing per ASTM draft standard F-04.25.02.02. The system was also tested to determine the force to overcome the locking mechanism under worst-case conditions.
#### CONCLUSION OF NON-CLINICAL TESTS:
The overall technological characteristics and mechanical performance data lead to the conclusion that the Genesys Spine AIS-C Cervical Anchored Interbody System is substantially equivalent to the Genesys Spine Apache Anchored Cervical Interbody Fusion System (K152099), the LDR Spine Cervical Interbody Fusion System - ROI-C (K091088, K113559), and the Exactech Acapella One Cervical Spacer System (K132582), SpineArt Scarlet AC-T Secured Anterior Cervical Cage (K141314), Genesys Spine Apache® IBFD System, (K103034) .
