Rhea-AI Summary

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NMTC) has received FDA 510(k) clearance for its Evo sEEG Electrode technology. This allows for temporary use (less than 30 days) in recording and stimulating electrical signals in the brain. The Evo system is significantly less invasive than traditional cortical electrodes, addressing a $100 million market for diagnostic brain mapping. NeuroOne plans to advance commercialization in partnership with Zimmer Biomet, and is also developing therapeutic electrode technologies targeting markets valued up to $6 billion.

Positive
  • FDA clearance for Evo sEEG System opens up U.S. market access.
  • Partnership with Zimmer Biomet enhances commercialization efforts.
  • Addresses a $100 million market for diagnostic brain mapping.
  • Less invasive technology compared to traditional cortical electrodes.
  • Potential market for therapeutic electrode technologies valued between $500 million and $6 billion.
Negative
  • Reliance on partnership with Zimmer Biomet may pose commercialization risks.
  • Potential delays in technology readiness for commercialization due to external factors.
  • Uncertainties regarding market acceptance of technology.
  • Risks of clinical trial outcomes affecting technological performance.

Company focused on manufacturing ramp for commercialization in partnership with Zimmer Biomet

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn., Oct. 25, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: NMTC) (NeuroOne or the Company), a medical technology company focused on improving surgical care options and outcomes for patients suffering from neurological disorders, today announced that it has received U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) 510(k) clearance to market its Evo sEEG Electrode technology for temporary (less than 30 days) use with recording, monitoring, and stimulation equipment for the recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain.

On August 9, 2022, the Company announced it had resubmitted its 510(k) application to the FDA for less than 30 day use, which included additional biocompatibility testing as requested by the FDA. On October 20, 2022, the Company received an FDA clearance letter stating that the Evo sEEG System is substantially equivalent to the predicate device and may be marketed in the United States.

"I am extremely proud of the entire NeuroOne team and their relentless pursuit of this clearance. Despite the challenges we faced, our team remained focused and persistent in driving this successful conclusion. This is clearly our most exciting and important accomplishment to date. We are now able to advance our commercialization efforts in partnership with Zimmer Biomet, our distribution and development partner. We look forward to continuing to execute our strategic plan, which next up includes our RF ablation system, the Company's first therapeutic electrode technology," said Dave Rosa, CEO of NeuroOne.

The Evo sEEG System represents the Company's second FDA 510(k) cleared product. NeuroOne now provides a full line of electrode technology to address an estimated worldwide market of $100 million for patients requiring diagnostic brain mapping procedures. As opposed to cortical electrodes, sEEG electrodes provide a similar function at the subsurface level of the brain by using a much less invasive process that does not require removal of the top portion of the patient's skull. sEEG electrodes are the predominant technology used in these procedures due to their less invasive placement and subsurface location.

The Company's Evo Cortical and sEEG Electrodes are a portfolio of hi-definition thin film electrodes. Potential advantages include increased signal clarity and reduced noise; better tactile feedback during insertion into brain tissue; and faster order fulfillment due to an automated manufacturing process.

As previously reported, NeuroOne is also advancing a pipeline of therapeutic electrode technologies for brain tissue ablation and chronic stimulation use for DBS (deep brain stimulation) and spinal cord stimulation for chronic back pain.  These therapeutic electrode technologies represent addressable markets valued between $500 million and $6 billion.

About NeuroOne

NeuroOne Medical Technologies Corporation is a developmental stage company committed to providing minimally invasive and hi-definition solutions for EEG recording, brain stimulation and ablation solutions for patients suffering from epilepsy, Parkinson's disease, dystonia, essential tremors, chronic pain due to failed back surgeries and other related neurological disorders that may improve patient outcomes and reduce procedural costs.
