## Device Description

FibroScan® System consists of a system unit and a hand-held probe. It is based on Vibration-Controlled Transient Elastography (VCTE™) technology and is designed to perform non-invasive measurements of liver/spleen shear wave speed and estimate tissue stiffness. The probe, containing a mechanical vibrator, produces low-amplitude elastic waves that travel through the skin and intercostal space into the liver/spleen. Ultrasound is used to track the shear (elastic) wave, measure its speed and provide estimated stiffness. The results are displayed on the system unit.

The focus of this submission is the clearance of the FibroScan® Family of Products (Models: 502 Touch, 530 Compact, 430 Mini+, 230, and 630) with a streamlined IFU and updated labelling materials. FibroScan® has the same intended use as the predicate and reference FibroScan systems. However, this submission is expanding the indications for use of the system, to be used with other clinical and laboratory data, as an aid in determining the likelihood of cirrhosis, in the assessment of liver fibrosis and in the assessment of hepatic steatosis. Additionally, the IFU is expanding its indications to patients with confirmed or suspected liver disease. The contraindications of the system for patients with pregnancy and/or active implants were removed. Instead, a warning statement was included in the device labeling regarding the lack of extensive studies of such populations and the resulting possible impact on patient risk and measurement reliability. These changes, among others, are based on comprehensive clinical literature and practice guideline support.

Although there have been no significant changes to the software, this clearance includes an updated version of the FibroScan® software for all models.

## Comparison of Technological Characteristics

All systems in the FibroScan® Family of Products (Models: 502 Touch, 530 Compact, 430 Mini+, 230, and 630) have the same fundamental scientific technology, basic design, operating principles, general user interface, and basic software specifications. There are no differences in the device hardware and probes compared to its predicate and reference FibroScan systems.

FibroScan® Family of Products is substantially equivalent to the FibroScan® systems cleared by 510(k) #K203273 and #K212035. Table 1 provides a detailed comparison of the candidate, predicate, and reference devices. All systems provide 50Hz shear wave speed measurements and estimates of tissue stiffness in the liver using the S+, M+, and XL+ transducers. Additionally, all systems provide CAP, designed to estimate the ultrasound attenuation at the frequency of 3.5MHz.

The technological characteristics of the FibroScan® Family of Products in this submission are substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference devices.

## Performance Data

No new hardware elements were included in the submission, and the new software version does not impact device performance. Therefore, no new performance data were required in support of the submission. The changes in the indications for use and labeling included in this submission are supported by a comprehensive clinical literature of approximately 100 published clinical literature articles and 20 supporting published professional guidelines. Papers used in support of the changes were focused on studies in which FibroScan® results are compared to the ground truth of liver biopsy.

The use of probes based on patient morphology rather than age is supported by 41 papers with ~8.570 patients. Of the 41 studies, the safe and effective use of the S+ probe on patients older than 18 was evaluated in 3 studies (n = 250 patients including healthy controls, patients with liver disease, and patients with cystic fibrosis); the safe and effective use of the M+ probe on patients younger than 14 was evaluated in 29 studies (n = 5,950 patients including healthy controls, Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), with fibrosis and/or steatosis, cystic fibrosis, obese without liver disease, chronic liver disease, intestinal failure, Hepatitis C, and liver transplant patients); and the safe and effective use of the XL+ Probe on patients younger than 18 was evaluated in = 2,369 patients including healthy controls, NAFLD, with fibrosis, Hepatitis C, and NASH). Use of probes on patients outside their indicated age limits, as documented in the numerous clinical publications, showed no adverse events related to probe use, supporting the safety of such use, as well as supported the effectiveness based on LSM, CAP, or both.

The use of FibroScan® as an aid to diagnosis and monitoring of pediatric patients is supported by 24 papers (n = 6,573) supporting the effectiveness of FibroScan® as an aid to diagnosis in pediatric population, and six additional papers (n = 293) supporting FibroScan® as an aid to monitoring in pediatric population. No adverse events related to performing FibroScan® examinations were recorded.

The effectiveness of the FibroScan® system in patients suspected of liver disease is supported by ten studies (n= 5,650 patients) assessing suspected patients (following their initial screening) using transient elastography (TE) as part of an overall assessment of the liver. The use of TE in

{7}------------------------------------------------

patients suspected of liver disease is also supported by clinical quidelines. Similarly, the revision of the labeling for FibroScan® output interpretation by physicians "with appropriate training" is intended to reflect the current recommendations from clinical quidelines on the use of FibroScan® as an essential component of clinical care, following initial screening of suspected liver disease patients in a primary care clinical environment, followed by further assessment by physicians experienced in the management of liver diseases as necessary.

The added clinical claims in the IFU include the aid in assessment of liver fibrosis and hepatic steatosis, when taken in context with other clinical and laboratory data. Additionally, the claims include the aid in determining the likelihood of cirrhosis. The addition of the clinical claims to the IFU is supported by peer reviewed literature demonstrating the consistent and robust correlation between LSM and fibrosis and LSM as an indicator of cirrhosis (3 longitudinal studies (290 patients) and 18 meta-analyses totaling 369 studies (>40,000 patients)) as well as between CAP™ and steatosis (6 meta-analysis publications, tallying 138 studies with ~12,900 patients). The clinical utility is also strongly supported by professional society clinical guidelines.

The removal of the contraindication of the device for active implants and for pregnant women is supported by technical considerations addressing the acoustic and mechanical output of the electrodynamic actuator and ultrasound probe. In addition, removal of contraindications for active implants is supported by 2 studies with 141 patients and removal of contraindications for pregnant women is supported by 3 studies with 611 pregnant women. These studies showed the device performs effectively on these patient populations, with no adverse events. Moreover, a warning statement was included in the device labeling regarding the lack of extensive studies of such populations and the resulting possible impact on patient risk and measurement reliability.

The clinical literature review demonstrates that the FibroScan® Family of Products with updated labelling and indications for use are safe, effective, and substantially equivalent to the predicate and reference FibroScan® devices.

# Substantial Equivalence Discussion

The FibroScan® Family of Products (Models: 502 Touch, 530 Compact, 430 Mini+, 230, and 630) uses the same operating principle and materials, incorporates the same basic design, emits the same energy, acquires the same information, and has the same intended use as the predicate and reference FibroScan® devices (#K203273 and #K212035). The updated indications for use and labeling, do not raise new or different questions of safety or efficacy. The updated software version was verified and validated.

In summary, the conclusions drawn from the clinical review provided in this submission demonstrate that FibroScan® Family of Products (Models: 502 Touch, 530 Compact, 430 Mini+, 230, and 630) raises no new or different issues of safety or effectiveness and is substantially equivalent to its primary predicate device.
