Intended Use

The Philips BlueControl is intended to emit energy in the spectrum, is generally indicated to treat dermatological conditions and specifically indicated to treat mild psoriasis vulgaris.

Device Story

Philips BlueControl is a rechargeable, battery-operated, wearable device for home use by patients to treat mild psoriasis vulgaris. It delivers blue light (452 nm) to the skin via 40 LEDs. The device includes a fixation strap for positioning on the treatment area. Operation involves an on/off button and an infrared sensor that detects skin presence and monitors skin temperature to ensure safety. The device provides visual (LED colors) and audio (beeps) feedback regarding treatment status, battery level, and overheating (auto-shutoff at 51°C or skin >43°C). Treatment consists of a 30-minute session per area, with a regimen of daily treatments for 4 weeks followed by 3 times weekly for 8 weeks. The device benefits patients by providing a wearable, home-based therapeutic option for managing psoriasis symptoms, with clinical evidence showing significant improvement in plaque severity (LPASI scores) compared to control.

Clinical Evidence

Two clinical studies (N=50 total) conducted per ISO 14155. One study (n=23) evaluated blue light treatment (30 min/day) for 12 weeks. Primary endpoint: change from baseline (CfB) of Local Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (LPASI) at week 12. Results showed significant improvement in treated plaques vs. control (ΔCfB: -0.92 ± 1.10, p=0.0005). Mean change from baseline to week 12 was -2.38 in treated plaques vs -1.46 in control. No serious device-related adverse events reported; expected hyperpigmentation observed.

Technological Characteristics

Wearable LED-based light therapy device. Wavelength: 452±7 nm. Intensity: 40±5 mW/cm². Materials: Polycarbonate LED cover, OEKO-TEX®-certified fabric straps. Power: 3.7V Li-ion battery. Safety standards: IEC 60601-1, IEC 60601-1-11, IEC 60601-2-57, IEC 62471. Software: Moderate level of concern. Connectivity: Standalone.

Indications for Use

Indicated for adult patients with mild psoriasis vulgaris for treatment of dermatological conditions.

The technical of the Philips BlueControl device are either same or substantially equivalent as compared to the predicate devices. There are no technological differences that raise new or different questions of safety or effectiveness. {9}------------------------------------------------ ### VII. PERFORMANCE DATA The following performance data were provided in support of the substantial equivalence determination. ## Biocompatibility Testing The skin contacting materials of the device (lower housing, device holder and strap) were evaluated for biocompatibility per ISO 10993-1 (2009): Biological Evaluation of Medical Devices – Part 1: Evaluation and Testing," for devices in contact with intact skin, including cytotoxicity, dermal sensitization, and dermal irritation. # Electric Safety and Electromagnetic Compatibility Testing The Philips BlueControl has been tested and complies with the applicable requirements of the following standards for medical devices used in the home environment: - . IEC 60601-1:2006 Medical Electrical Equipment - Part 1: General Requirements for Safety, 3rd edition - . IEC 60601-1-11: 2010 Medical electrical equipment -- Part 1-11: General requirements for basic safety and essential performance -- Collateral standard: Requirements for medical electrical equipment and medical electrical systems used in the home healthcare environment - IEC 60601-2-57: 2011 Medical electrical equipment: Particular requirements for ● the basic safety and essential performance of non-laser light source equipment intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, monitoring and cosmetic/aesthetic use - IEC 60601-1-2: 2007 General requirements for basic safety and essential . performance - Collateral Standard: Electromagnetic disturbances - Requirements and tests # Photobiological Safety Testing The Philips BlueControl has been tested and complies with IEC 60601-2-57 (2011): Medical Electrical equipment part 2-57: Particular requirements for the basic safety and essential performance of non-laser light source equipment intended for therapeutic, diagnostic, monitoring and cosmetic/aesthetic use, 1* edition and IEC 62471 (2006-07): Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems, 1st edition. Those IEC standards incorporate the measurement techniques of the following ANSI IESNA recommended practices: - RP 27.1:2005 Recommended practice for photobiological safety for lamps and . lamp systems - General requirements - RP 27.2:2000 Recommended practice for photobiological safety for lamps and . lamp systems - Measurement techniques - . RP-27.3:2007 Recommended practice for photobiological safety for lamps and lamp systems - Risk group classification and labeling {10}------------------------------------------------ ### Other Bench Testing Thermal safety and reliability testing has also been conducted to verify the risk controls implemented for the Philips BlueControl are effective to mitigate the hazards identified. ## Software Verification and Validation Testing Software documentation consistent with moderate level of concern was submitted in this 510(k). System validation testing presented in this 510(k) demonstrated that all software requirement specifications are met and all software hazards have been mitigated to acceptable risk levels. # Clinical Studies To support the proposed indication for use, two clinical studies of N=50 have been performed in Europe per ISO 14155: Clinical investigation of medical devices for human subjects -- Good clinical practice. In both studies, psoriasis severity was evaluated using the Local Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (LPASI), a modified version of the validated PASI. No serious adverse events were considered related to any of the studied treatment regimen. One clinical study was conducted on 23 enrolled subjects who received blue light treatment at 200 mW/cm2 setting for their mild plaque psoriasis. The patients were treated with blue light for 30 minutes per plague per treatment for 12 weeks followed by a 4-week follow up period without treatment. During the full course of 12-week treatment, the 30-minute blue light treatment was performed daily (5 to 7 treatments per week) for the first 4 weeks, followed by 8 weeks with 3 treatments per week. The plaque severity was evaluated using the LPASI. The primary endpoint, change from baseline (CfB) of the LPASI at week 12, revealed a significant improvement of the treated compared to the control plaques (△CfB: -0.92 ± 1.10, p = 0.0005, t test; p = 0.0006, Wilcoxon signed-rank test; mean 95% CI –1.38, –0.45). The mean change from baseline to week 12 was -2.38 (-3.02 to -1.73) in the treated plaque and -1.46 (-2.13 to -0.79) in the control plaque. All 16 adverse events observed during the study were evaluated. No serious adverse events were reported. None of the adverse events were device-related or treatment-related. The hyperpigmentation (tanning) of the treated skin was expected and reported by some of the study participants. The tanning effect reduced within a few days after completion of the treatment cvcle. No other device-related adverse effects of the device are observed. The results of these studies demonstrate the 12-week treatment cycle of BlueControl reduces the severity of mild psoriasis vulgaris. # VIII. CONCLUSIONS The Philips BlueControl and its predicates emit energy in the blue region of the light spectrum to treat dermatological conditions. The performance achieved by these devices uses nearly identical power intensities and wavelengths. Both the Philips BlueControl and the primary predicate are intended to be placed directly on the skin to provide the light energy. The primary predicate device is cleared for over-the- counter home use, and the {11}------------------------------------------------ Philips BlueControl is a prescription home use device. The intended patient population for the Philips BlueControl fall within the intended use of the secondary predicate device, which is generally indicated to treat dermatological conditions for prescription use. To support the specific indication for use, the clinical testing performed using Philips BlueControl demonstrates its effectiveness for treatment of mild psoriasis vulgaris in adult patients.
