Magtrace and Sentimag Magnetic Localization System

 Endomagnetics Inc.

INDICATION FOR USE: To assist in localizing lymph nodes draining a tumor
site, as part of a sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure, in patients with breast cancer undergoing a mastectomy. Magtrace™ is intended and calibrated for use ONLY with the Sentimag® system.

ADDRESSING UNMET NEED:

  • Sentinel lymph node biopsies are crucial for determining whether a patient’s breast cancer has spread and helping the provider determine the most appropriate course of treatment
  • System offers patients undergoing mastectomy an option for their sentinel lymph biopsy procedure that does not require the injection of radioactive materials

SYSTEM DESCRIPTION:

  • Sensitive magnetic sensing probe and base unit designed to detect small amounts of Magtrace, the magnetic tracer drug that is injected into breast tissue
  • Magtrace particles travel to lymph nodes, become physically trapped in them, facilitating magnetic detection of the lymph nodes
  • Following injection of Magtrace, the Sentimag probe is applied to the patients’ skin in areas closest to the tumor site containing the lymph nodes
  • Sensing of the magnetic particles is indicated by changes in audio and visual alerts from the base unit, enabling the surgeon to move the hand-held probe around the area of the lymph nodes, and locate the sentinel lymph node or nodes (if there are more than one)
  • Surgeon makes a small incision and removes the node, which is checked by a pathologist for the presence of cancer cell
  • Negative result: Suggests cancer has not spread to nearby lymph nodes
  • Positive result: May indicate cancer present in sentinel lymph node,  nearby lymph nodes and, possibly, other organs
  • Help determine stage of cancer and develop appropriate treatment plan

EFFECTIVENESS AND SAFETY:

  • Trial of 147 patients with breast cancer, n=147, Sentimag System vs. control methodin sentinel lymph node detection ratw
  •  94.3% for Sentimag System vs. 93.5% for control
  • Overall, 98.0% same detection rate with both Sentimag System and control
  • Most common adverse event: Breast discoloration, cardiac disorder (bradycardia) and potential allergic reaction to the magnetic materials
  • Contraindication: Hypersensitivity to iron oxide or dextran compounds

REGULATORY PATHWAY: PMA, Combination Product

  • Product Code: PUV
  • Classification: III
  • Classification Name:  Lymph Node Location System during Sentinel Biopsy Procedure
  • Coordinated, cross-agency approach- Clinical review conducted by CDRH in consultation with CDER and with support from Oncology Center of Excellence. All other aspects of review and final product approval by CDRH
