DEN220015 is an FDA 510(k) submission (not cleared) for the Orthobond Mariner Pedicle Screw System. Classified as Spinal Fusion System With 12-methacryloyloxydodecyl Pyridinium Bromide (c21h34brno2) Coating (product code QZY), Class II - Special Controls.

Submitted by Orthobond Coporation (Monmouth, US). The FDA issued a Not Cleared (DENG) decision on April 5, 2024 after a review of 767 days.

This device falls under the Orthopedic FDA review panel, regulated under 21 CFR 888.3071 - the FDA orthopedic device regulatory 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 767 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.
