InspireMD, Inc. (NASDAQ: NSPR), located at 800 Boylston Street, Suite 16041, Boston, Massachusetts, is a pioneering medical device company. It specializes in the development and commercialization of its proprietary MicroNet stent platform technology, which addresses complex vascular and coronary diseases. The company's flagship products include the CGuard Carotid Embolic Prevention System (CGuard EPS) and the MGuard Prime Embolic Protection System (MGuard Prime EPS).
The CGuard EPS, which integrates MicroNet technology with a self-expandable nitinol stent, is primarily used for carotid artery applications and is a significant revenue driver for the company. InspireMD operates globally, with key markets in Italy, Germany, Russia, among others.
In a recent move, InspireMD has focused on expanding its intellectual property portfolio to support its strategic direction. October 2023 saw the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) expand coverage for carotid artery stenting, including asymptomatic and standard-risk patients. This development is expected to enhance the adoption of InspireMD's products.
Additionally, in the third quarter of 2023, InspireMD reported its financial results and ongoing projects. They are currently enrolling patients in a study to investigate the safety and feasibility of using CGuard EPS for treating acute ischemic stroke patients with tandem lesions. This study is expected to enroll 15 patients across three U.S. sites.
CEO Marvin Slosman emphasized the importance of this study in addressing carotid lesions in acute stroke settings, marking a crucial step in their long-term growth strategy. The company also continues its work on the Premarket Approval Application (PMA) for the C-GUARDIANS U.S. IDE trial, anticipating key milestones in 2024 and 2025.
InspireMD's common stock is listed on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol NSPR. For more information, visit their website at www.inspiremd.com.
InspireMD (Nasdaq: NSPR) congratulates investigators on completing enrollment in the CREST-2 clinical trials, which evaluate carotid revascularization for stroke prevention. The company's CGuard™ Embolic Prevention Stent System was the only investigational carotid stent approved by FDA for inclusion in the trials, with 23 cases implanted. This approval followed InspireMD's successful IDE supplement application in February 2022.
The CREST-2 trials compare carotid revascularization and intensive medical management to medical management alone in patients with asymptomatic high-grade carotid stenosis. The study aims to determine the optimal treatment for these patients and ensure the use of state-of-the-art innovation for the best possible outcomes.
