DEN160018 is an FDA 510(k) submission (not cleared) for the reSet. Classified as Computerized Behavioral Therapy Device For Substance Use Disorders (product code PWE), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Pear Therapeutics, Inc. (Boston, US). The FDA issued a Not Cleared (DENG) decision on September 14, 2017 after a review of 486 days.

This device falls under the Neurology FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 882.5801 - the FDA neurology device framework. The Traditional 510(k) pathway requires demonstration of substantial equivalence to a legally marketed predicate device - a standard the FDA determined was not met in this submission.

Device pattern: Regulatory edge-case submission. High predicate equivalence gap. With 486 days under review and no clearance granted, this submission reflects a case where the FDA could not confirm sufficient predicate equivalence - often indicating either a novel device category or unresolved safety and performance questions.
