Insights

SeaStar Medical's Q2 2024 results show mixed signals. Revenue generation has begun with initial commercial sales of QUELIMMUNE™, marking a significant milestone. However, financial metrics remain challenging with $3.2 million net loss for Q2, wider than the $2.4 million loss in Q2 2023. R&D and G&A expenses increased, reflecting ongoing clinical trials and corporate growth.

The $10 million capital raise in July is crucial, boosting cash to $6.9 million as of July 31, 2024. This provides some runway, but cash burn remains a concern given the $4.6 million in operating expenses for Q2 alone. The retirement of $2.7 million in debt is positive for the balance sheet. Investors should monitor cash levels and potential need for additional financing.

SeaStar Medical's QUELIMMUNE device shows promise in pediatric AKI, with a 77% survival rate in initial studies. The recent FDA approval under HDE is significant, addressing an unmet need in a 4,000-patient market. The ongoing NEUTRALIZE-AKI trial for adults is crucial, targeting a much larger market. With 42 subjects enrolled across 9 sites, progress seems steady but not rapid.

The Category B reimbursement approval from CMS is a major win, potentially accelerating trial progress and reducing costs. The expansion into cardiorenal and hepatorenal syndromes, both with FDA Breakthrough Device Designations, demonstrates the platform's potential versatility. Recent publications in Transplantation Direct and Nature Scientific Reports provide scientific validation, important for medical community acceptance and adoption.

SeaStar Medical's entry into commercial sales marks a pivotal transition from R&D to revenue generation. The pediatric AKI market, while to 4,000 patients annually, serves as a strategic entry point. The real prize is the adult AKI market, estimated to be 50 times larger and a potential multi-billion dollar opportunity.

Market adoption will be key to watch. Initial use in two severely ill children is promising, but broader acceptance among pediatric ICUs will be crucial. The planned Q4 2024 commercial rollout will be a critical period. For the adult market, the projected 2026 launch seems distant, but necessary given the ongoing pivotal trial. Investors should monitor site activation and enrollment rates in the NEUTRALIZE-AKI trial as indicators of future market potential and timeline adherence.

DENVER, Aug. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- SeaStar Medical Holding Corporation (Nasdaq: ICU) (“SeaStar Medical” or the “Company”), a commercial-stage medical device company developing proprietary solutions to reduce the consequences of hyperinflammation on vital organs, reports financial results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2024 and provides a business update.

“Our recent commercial, clinical and corporate achievements have significantly strengthened our company and support an active and exciting future,” said Eric Schlorff, SeaStar Medical CEO. “Foremost were our initial commercial sales of QUELIMMUNE, which has already been used to provide potentially life-saving therapy to two severely ill children in the intensive care unit (ICU) with acute kidney injury (AKI) and sepsis. We are working diligently to qualify a select group of prominent children’s hospitals to extend access to this therapy, with a robust commercial rollout planned for the fourth quarter of this year.

“With our NEUTRALIZE-AKI pivotal clinical trial in adults, we achieved an important win with the granting of reimbursement to cover certain trial expenses for Medicare and Medicaid patients. This Category B coverage is expected to substantially reduce our overall trial costs and accelerate the activation of new trial sites,” he added. “We’ve now enrolled 42 subjects at nine sites, with additional prominent medical centers poised to come on board before the end of September. Our team is focused on completing this trial and providing access to our therapeutic device to adult AKI patients. Further, the U.S. adult AKI patient population is 50 times larger than the pediatric population, representing a multibillion-dollar opportunity for SeaStar Medical.

“Our corporate progress included strengthening our Board with the appointment of three outstanding new directors who bring extensive industry experience to help guide our transition to a commercial organization. We also completed a financing last month, providing much-needed capital to advance our business plan and enabling us to retire nearly all of our outstanding debt,” concluded Mr. Schlorff.

SeaStar Medical provides the following updates on its commercial and development programs, and corporate activities:

Pediatric Acute Kidney Injury

Only about half of the patients in the pediatric ICU with AKI who require kidney replacement therapy (KRT) survive, with those who do survive at heightened risk of long-term, life-threatening conditions such as chronic kidney disease. Pooled analysis from two non-controlled studies, one of which was funded by the FDA Office of Orphan Products Development, showed that children weighing 10 kilograms or more with AKI requiring continuous KRT (CKRT) who were treated with QUELIMMUNE (Selective Cytopheretic Device or SCD-Pediatric) had a 77% survival rate, no dialysis dependency at Day 60 and no device-related serious adverse events or device-related infections.

In February 2024 we received our first U.S. regulatory approval for the QUELIMMUNE device, specifically for children with AKI and sepsis or septic condition weighing 10 kilograms or more who are being treated in the ICU with KRT. QUELIMMUNE was approved under a Humanitarian Device Exemption (HDE) application, having met the applicable criteria with clinical results showing safety and probable clinical benefit to critically ill children with AKI who have few treatment options. The U.S. addressable population of about 4,000 pediatric patients falls within the 8,000-patient HDE criteria.

We are working with our distribution partner to commercialize QUELIMMUNE under Humanitarian Use Device (HUD) requirements. Pediatric patients undergoing treatment with this therapy are expected to require, on average, five to seven QUELIMMUNE units, with the disposable portion of the unit being changed once every 24 hours.

  • In July 2024 we announced the first commercial sales of QUELIMMUNE to our U.S. distribution partner, following the finalization of FDA labeling requirements earlier in the month.
  • In July 2024 we reported that the first patient had been treated with QUELIMMUNE in a commercial setting, which allowed us to meet the August 20, 2024 FDA deadline to begin patient treatments as designated in the FDA’s approval of QUELIMMUNE.

Adult Acute Kidney Injury

We are conducting the pivotal NEUTRALIZE-AKI (NEUTRophil and Monocyte DeActivation via SeLective CytopheretIc Device - a RandomiZEd Clinical Trial in Acute Kidney Injury) clinical trial to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the SCD in adults with AKI in the ICU receiving CKRT. The SCD-ADULT device has received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for this indication, which is awarded to a therapy to treat a serious or life-threatening condition with preliminary clinical evidence indicating it may demonstrate substantial improvement over available therapies on clinically significant endpoints.

The NEUTRALIZE-AKI trial is expected to enroll up to 200 patients at up to 30 U.S. medical centers. The trial’s primary endpoint is a composite of 90-day mortality or dialysis dependency of patients treated with the SCD-ADULT in addition to CKRT as the standard of care, compared with the control group receiving only CKRT standard of care. Secondary endpoints include mortality at 28 days, ICU-free days in the first 28 days, major adverse kidney events at Day 90 and dialysis dependency at one year. The study will also include subgroup analyses to explore the effectiveness of SCD-ADULT therapy in AKI patients with sepsis and acute respiratory distress syndrome.

  • In July 2024 the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) granted Category B coverage for certain expenses incurred by medical centers treating Medicare or Medicaid patients enrolled in the adult AKI trial.
  • We expect to receive U.S. regulatory approval for the SCD for adults with AKI under a Premarket Approval (PMA) application in the first half of 2026, with the commercial product launch expected in the second half of 2026.

Additional SCD Indications

We continue to explore the application of our SCD technology across a range of indications involving dysregulated immune processes where proinflammatory activated neutrophils and monocytes may contribute to disease progression or severity, in both acute and chronic indications.

  • In 2023 we received FDA Breakthrough Device Designation for the SCD for use in cardiorenal syndrome and hepatorenal syndrome.
  • In April 2024 the National Institutes of Health awarded a $3.6 million grant to a consortium including SeaStar Medical to study the SCD in adult patients with severe chronic heart failure with acute decompensated heart failure that can lead to cardiorenal syndrome. We expect to receive approximately one-quarter of the grant amount for serving as the contract research organization for the trial, which can be leveraged for other indications. The study will be named NEUTRALIZE-CRS.

Scientific Publications and Presentations

  • In May 2024 a manuscript was published in the peer-reviewed journal Transplantation Direct citing four case studies in which critically ill patients between the ages of 22 months and 71 years with multiorgan failure were successfully stabilized with SCD treatment, improving their clinical status prior to stem cell or liver transplant, or left ventricular assist device implantation.
  • In June 2024 an article was published in the peer-reviewed journal Nature Scientific Reports describing the mechanism of action of the SCD as an evolving approach to treating organ dysfunction arising from hyperinflammation and the subsequent cytokine storm by processing leukocytes in an extracorporeal circuit.
  • In June 2024 the SCD was featured in two presentations at the 42nd Vicenza Course AKI-CRRT-ECOS and Critical Care Nephrology conference.

Corporate Developments

  • In June 2024 we announced that three new members had joined our Board of Directors, replacing two directors who did not stand for reelection at our 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and one director who retired.
  • In July 2024 we completed a registered direct offering priced at-the-market, raising gross proceeds of $10 million.

Second Quarter Financial Results

Research and development (R&D) expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $2.3 million, compared with $2.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. The increase was primarily driven by higher clinical trial costs, partially offset by a reduction in external services expense. General and administrative (G&A) expenses for the second quarter of 2024 were $2.3 million, compared with $1.8 million for the second quarter of 2023, with the increase primarily due to higher accounting and legal fees and personnel costs.

Other expense for the second quarter of 2024 was $1.4 million, compared with $1.3 million for the second quarter of 2023. The increase was due primarily to an increase in gains from the change in the fair value of liability classified warrants partially offset by a gain from the decline in the fair value of the liability classified forward purchase agreement during the 2023 quarter, with the forward purchase agreement no longer a financial instrument during the 2024 quarter.

The net loss for the second quarter of 2024 was $3.2 million, or $1.03 per share on 3.2 million weighted-average shares outstanding. This compares with a net loss for the second quarter of 2023 of $2.4 million, or $4.10 per share on 0.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

Six Month Financial Results

R&D expenses for the first six months of 2024 were $4.0 million, compared with $3.7 million for the first six months of 2023. G&A expenses for the first six months of 2024 and 2023 were consistent at $4.6 million.

Other expense for the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $7.3 million, compared with $1.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2023. The increase reflects a $6.1 million non-cash adjustment due to the change in fair value of liability classified convertible notes.

The net loss for the first six months of 2024 was $16.0 million, or $5.36 per share on 3.0 million weighted-average shares outstanding, compared with a net loss for the first six months of 2023 of $9.5 million, or $17.06 per share on 0.6 million weighted-average shares outstanding.

Including net proceeds of approximately $9.1 million from a registered direct offering completed in July 2024, the Company’s cash balance was approximately $6.9 million as of July 31, 2024, after reducing outstanding debt by $2.7 million during July 2024..

About the Selective Cytopheretic Device (SCD)

The SCD is a patented cell-directed extracorporeal device that employs immunomodulating technology to selectively target proinflammatory neutrophils and monocytes during continuous kidney renal therapy (KRT) and reduces the hyperinflammatory milieu including the cytokine storm that causes inflammation, organ failure and possible death in critically ill patients. Unlike pathogen removal and other blood-purification tools, the device is integrated with KRT hemofiltration systems to selectively target and transition proinflammatory monocytes to a reparative state and promote activated neutrophils to be less inflammatory. The SCD selectively targets the most highly activated proinflammatory neutrophils and monocytes. These cells are then returned back into the body through the blood, and the body is signaled to lower its inflammatory environment and focus on repair. This unique immunomodulation approach may promote long-term organ recovery and eliminate the need for future KRT, including dialysis.

About SeaStar Medical

SeaStar Medical is a commercial-stage medical technology company that is redefining how extracorporeal therapies may reduce the consequences of excessive inflammation on vital organs. SeaStar Medical’s novel technologies rely on science and innovation to provide life-saving solutions to critically ill patients. The Company is developing and commercializing cell-directed extracorporeal therapies that target the effector cells that drive systemic inflammation, causing direct tissue damage and secreting a range of pro-inflammatory cytokines that initiate and propagate imbalanced immune responses.
