Zimmer received a warrant to purchase 350,000 shares of NeuroOne's
common stock at $3.00 per share.
- Re-submitted special 510(k) to FDA for <30 day use for the
Evo sEEG electrode.
- Completed ablation system prototypes, including RF generator
from RBC Medical and NeuroOne's electrodes and accessories, ahead
of schedule and successfully tested the first fully integrated
sEEG/RF ablation system.
- Achieved major milestone with first sEEG electrode case for
intraoperative brain mapping at the subsurface level of the brain
performed at Emory University.
- Qualified second source for manufacturing for both the Evo
cortical and sEEG electrodes.
- Completed validation and placed orders for a new cable assembly
which will provide significant cost reduction.
- Established advisory board of leading anesthesiologists and
neurosurgeons for spinal cord stimulation program.
- Completed design verification to extend shelf life for Evo
cortical electrodes to three years.
- Presented at the HC Wainwright Global Investment Conference and
the NobleCon 18 Investor Conference.
- Exhibited the Evo Cortical electrode family in partnership with
Zimmer Biomet at the American Association of Neurological Surgeons
Annual Scientific Meeting and the American Society for Stereotactic
and Functional Neurosurgery Biennial Meeting.
- The first peered-reviewed paper presenting the biocompatibility
results for NeuroOne subdural thin film electrodes was
published in the Frontiers of Neuroscience journal on
April 29,
2022.
- The Company's Evo sEEG implantation accuracy study was accepted
as a podium presentation at the Biennial Meeting of the World
Society for Stereotactic & Functional Neurosurgery, to be held
in South Korea September 4-7 2022.
Dave Rosa, CEO of NeuroOne
commented, "The Company made great strides in the third fiscal
quarter of 2022 and subsequent six weeks. Significant progress was
made in testing our Evo sEEG electrode and on August 9th we re-submitted to the FDA
a special 510(k) seeking clearance for <30 day use. In addition,
we were excited to have the first Evo sEEG case performed by Dr.
Robert Gross of Emory University for less than 24 hour use. We were
also successful in reducing costs by completing validation of a new
cable assembly and extending shelf life of the Evo Cortical
electrode product lines. A backup supplier for our electrodes was
also qualified providing additional insurance for our supply chain.
Regarding our ablation system which we have named OneRF™ we
successfully completed bench top testing for the entire system.
Finally, we are excited that Zimmer Biomet agreed to an
accelerated $3.5M milestone payment
for the Evo® sEEG electrode." Rosa continued, "This amendment to
our agreement provides NeuroOne with near term capital without the
need for a highly dilutive financing and reinforces our ongoing
partnership with Zimmer Biomet."
Upcoming Targeted Milestones
- Evo sEEG Depth Diagnostic Electrode
-
- FDA decision on Re-submission of 510(k) for <30 day use for
the Evo sEEG electrode.
- Complete additional cases for sEEG electrode intraoperative use
(<24 hour) at select sites.
