## Indications for Use

The Eclipse Treatment Planning System (Eclipse TPS) is used to plan radiotherapy treatments for patients with malignant or benign diseases. Eclipse TPS is used to plan external beam irradiation with photon, electron and proton beams, as well as for internal irradiation (brachytherapy) treatments. In addition, the Eclipse Proton Eye algorithm is specifically indicated for planning proton treatment of neoplasms of the eye.

## Device Story

Eclipse TPS is a computer-based software system used by trained medical professionals to design and simulate radiation therapy treatments. It processes patient anatomical data to plan external beam irradiation (photon, electron, proton) and brachytherapy. The system includes the Eclipse Proton Eye algorithm, specifically for planning proton treatment of eye neoplasms. Clinicians use the software to calculate dose distributions and optimize treatment plans, which are then used to guide radiation delivery equipment. The device benefits patients by enabling precise, individualized radiation therapy planning, potentially improving treatment accuracy and clinical outcomes.

## Clinical Evidence

No clinical data provided; bench testing only.

## Technological Characteristics

Computer-based software system for radiotherapy treatment planning. Supports photon, electron, and proton external beam modalities and brachytherapy. Includes specialized algorithm for proton eye treatment planning. Operates as a standalone software application for clinical use.

## Regulatory Identification

A medical charged-particle radiation therapy system is a device that produces by acceleration high energy charged particles (e.g., electrons and protons) intended for use in radiation therapy. This generic type of device may include signal analysis and display equipment, patient and equipment supports, treatment planning computer programs, component parts, and accessories.

Dear Ms. Tran:

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.

If your device is classified (see above) into either class II (Special Controls) or class III (PMA), it may be subject to additional controls. Existing major regulations affecting your device can be found in the Code of Federal Regulations, Title 21, Parts 800 to 898. In addition, FDA may publish further announcements concerning your device in the Federal Register.

Please be advised that FDA's issuance of a substantial equivalence determination does not mean that FDA has made a determination that your device complies with other requirements of the Act or any Federal statutes and regulations administered by other Federal agencies. You must comply with all the Act's requirements, including, but not limited to: registration and listing (21 CFR Part 807); labeling (21 CFR Part 801); medical device reporting (reporting of medical
