- Generated revenue of
€935,000 from the commercialization of Genio® in Europe, primarily in Germany, which represents growth of more than five times the amount achieved in the second quarter of 2021 - Activated 11 new implanting sites in Germany during the second quarter, bringing the total to 26 as of June 30, 2022; expecting to have at least 35 active implanting sites by the end of 2022

- Received FDA approval of the next generation Genio® 2.1 system for use in the DREAM study and CE mark for use in commercial patients in Europe; this improves patient comfort and compliance with a new smartphone application and upgraded external activation chip, which leverages Nyxoah’s scalable platform to continuously enhance patient comfort and therapy efficacy without requiring a new implant

“We made significant progress on all of our key strategic priorities this quarter, including activating 11 new commercial sites in Germany, completing enrollment in our DREAM trial, and receiving approval for our ACCCESS IDE,” commented Olivier Taelman, Nyxoah’s Chief Executive Officer. “From a commercial standpoint, our second quarter performance showing
“As the only commercially available hypoglossal nerve stimulation (HGNS) therapy approved for the treatment of CCC patients, we are encouraged by the first strong results from patients who are six months post-implantation. These results, combined with no longer having to perform a drug-induced sleep endoscopy (DISE) procedure prior to implant, are driving physicians to recommend Genio for their CCC and non-CCC patients,” continued Mr. Taelman.
Mr. Taelman concluded, “In the meantime, we have already begun investing in our U.S. market access organization. As for our ACCCESS study, we expect to implant the first patients before year end.”
