Dear Cynthia Berringer:
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 (the 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. Although this letter refers to your product as a device, please be aware that some cleared products may instead be combination products. The 510(k) Premarket Notification Database available at https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/scripts/cdrh/cfdocs/cfpmn/pmn.cfm identifies combination product submissions. 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. Please note: CDRH does not evaluate information related to contract liability warranties. We remind you, however, that device labeling must be truthful and not misleading.
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.
Additional information about changes that may require a new premarket notification are provided in the FDA guidance documents entitled 'Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Change to an Existing Device' (https://www.fda.gov/media/99812/download) and 'Deciding When to Submit a 510(k) for a Software Change to an Existing Device' (https://www.fda.gov/media/99785/download).

Your device is also subject to, among other requirements, the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820), which includes, but is not limited to, ISO 13485 clause 7.3 (Design controls), ISO 13485 clause 8.3 (Nonconforming product), ISO 13485 clause 8.5.2 (Corrective action), and ISO 13485 clause 8.5.3 (Preventative action). Please note that regardless of whether a change requires premarket review, the QMSR requires device manufacturers to review and approve changes to device design and production (ISO 13485 clause 7.3 and ISO 13485 clause 7.5) and document changes and approvals in the Medical Device File (ISO 13485 clause 4.2.3).
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 device-related adverse events) (21 CFR Part 803) for devices or postmarketing safety reporting (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart B) for combination products (see https://www.fda.gov/combination-products/guidance-regulatory-information/postmarketing-safety-reporting-combination-products); good manufacturing practice requirements as set forth in the Quality Management System Regulation (QMSR) (21 CFR Part 820) for devices or current good manufacturing practices (21 CFR Part 4, Subpart A) for combination products; and, if applicable, the electronic product radiation control provisions (Sections 531-542 of the Act); 21 CFR Parts 1000-1050.
All medical devices, including Class I and unclassified devices and combination product device constituent parts are required to be in compliance with the final Unique Device Identification System rule ('UDI Rule'). The UDI Rule requires, among other things, that a device bear a unique device identifier (UDI) on its label and package (21 CFR 801.20(a)) unless an exception or alternative applies (21 CFR 801.20(b)) and that the dates on the device label be formatted in accordance with 21 CFR 801.18. The UDI Rule (21 CFR 830.300(a) and 830.320(b)) also requires that certain information be submitted to the Global Unique Device Identification Database (GUDID) (21 CFR Part 830 Subpart E). For additional information on these requirements, please see the UDI System webpage at https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/device-advice-comprehensive-regulatory-assistance/unique-device-identification-system-udi-system.
Also, please note the regulation entitled, 'Misbranding by reference to premarket notification' (21 CFR 807.97). For questions regarding the reporting of adverse events under the MDR regulation (21 CFR Part 803), please go to https://www.fda.gov/medical-devices/medical-device-safety/medical-device-reporting-mdr-how-report-medical-device-problems.

### 3. PREDICATE DEVICE INFORMATION
Device Name: MicroMatrix® Flex
510(k) Number: K230980
Manufacturer: ACell, Inc. (subsidiary of Integra LifeSciences Corp.)
The predicate device has not been subject to a design related recall.
### 4. DEVICE DESCRIPTION
The ECMT-100 WMD is a colloidal hydrogel device for the management of wounds. The device is delivered to the wound site from a syringe. ECMT-100 WMD is composed of extracellular matrix derived from decellularized porcine dermis. The device contained inside of the 3mL syringe is packaged in a carton inside of a sealed foil pouch and terminally sterilized using electron beam irradiation.
### 5. INDICATIONS FOR USE
ECMT-100 WMD is intended for the management of wounds including: partial and full-thickness wounds, pressure ulcers, venous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, chronic vascular ulcers, tunneled/undermined wounds, surgical wounds (donor sites/grafts, post-Mohs surgery, post-laser surgery, podiatric, wound dehiscence), trauma wounds (abrasions, lacerations, partial thickness burns, skin tears), draining wounds. The device is intended for single-use. The device is intended for use in patients aged 18 years and older.
### 6. COMPARISON OF INTENDED USE AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS WITH THE PREDICATE DEVICE
ECMT-100 WMD has identical intended use and indications for use as the cleared predicate MicroMatrix® Flex (K230980) device.
The technological characteristics of ECMT-100 WMD are substantially equivalent to the predicate device. Both devices are intended for single-use only and are resorbable. Both devices originate from porcine animal tissue-derived collagen extracellular matrix (ECM) and are considered flowable devices. The following table provides an overview of the comparison between the subject and predicate device.

### 7. PERFORMANCE DATA
#### 7.1. Biocompatibility Testing
Biocompatibility was tested in compliance with ISO 10993-1 and the following end points were tested: cytotoxicity, sensitization, intracutaneous reactivity, material mediated pyrogenicity, systemic toxicity testing, genotoxicity, implantation testing, chemical characterization, and biological and toxicological risk assessments were completed.
#### 7.2. Performance Testing
The following laboratory testing was conducted to demonstrate that the ECMT-100 WMD meets its design requirements and performs as intended. The tests include:
- Viral Inactivation / Viral Safety
- Endotoxin
- Rheology / pH / Injectability Force
- Product Stability
- Packaging Stability
- Sterilization Validation
- Biochemical Characterization
- Simulated Use Study
### 8. CONCLUSION
The results of the biocompatibility and performance testing described above demonstrate that the ECMT-100 WMD is as safe and effective as the predicate device and supports a determination of substantial equivalence.
