Indications for Use
Lucent intervertebral body fusion devices are intended for spinal fusion procedures at one or two contiguous levels (L2-S1) in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD). DDD is defined as back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by history and radiographic studies. DDD patients may also have up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis at the involved levels. These patients may have had a previous non-fusion spinal surgery at the involved spinal level(s). This device is intended to be used with supplemental spinal fixation systems that have been cleared for use in the lumbosacral spine (i.e., posterior pedicle screw and rod systems, and anterior screw and rod systems). This device is intended to be used with autogenous bone graft. Patients must have undergone a regimen of at least six (6) months non-operative treatment prior to being treated with this device.
Device Story
Lucent XP is an intervertebral body fusion device (interbody cage) for lumbar spinal surgery. Device features two PEEK endplates with teeth for vertebral engagement and an internal titanium expansion mechanism. Box-shaped design includes apertures for autograft placement. Surgically implanted by a surgeon to facilitate spinal fusion. Device provides structural support to the disc space while bone graft promotes fusion. Used in conjunction with supplemental spinal fixation systems (pedicle screws/rods or anterior plates). Benefits include stabilization of the spinal segment in patients with degenerative disc disease.
Clinical Evidence
Bench testing only. Performance data included static and dynamic compression testing (ASTM F2077-14) and subsidence testing (ASTM F2267-11). No clinical data provided.
Technological Characteristics
Intervertebral body fusion device. Materials: PEEK-Optima grade LT1 (ASTM F2026), optional commercially pure titanium coating (ASTM F1580), and titanium alloy internal mechanism (ASTM F136). Features PEEK endplates with teeth and internal expansion mechanism. Mechanical device; no software or energy source.
Indications for Use
Indicated for skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one or two contiguous levels (L2-S1). Includes patients with up to Grade 1 spondylolisthesis or retrolisthesis and those with prior non-fusion spinal surgery. Requires use with supplemental fixation and autogenous bone graft after at least 6 months of failed non-operative treatment.
Regulatory Classification
Identification
An intervertebral body fusion device is an implanted single or multiple component spinal device made from a variety of materials, including titanium and polymers. The device is inserted into the intervertebral body space of the cervical or lumbosacral spine, and is intended for intervertebral body fusion.
Special Controls
*Classification.* (1) Class II (special controls) for intervertebral body fusion devices that contain bone grafting material. The special control is the FDA guidance document entitled “Class II Special Controls Guidance Document: Intervertebral Body Fusion Device.” See § 888.1(e) for the availability of this guidance document.(2) Class III (premarket approval) for intervertebral body fusion devices that include any therapeutic biologic (e.g., bone morphogenic protein). Intervertebral body fusion devices that contain any therapeutic biologic require premarket approval. (c) *Date premarket approval application (PMA) or notice of product development protocol (PDP) is required.* Devices described in paragraph (b)(2) of this section shall have an approved PMA or a declared completed PDP in effect before being placed in commercial distribution.
