Submission of a file to the Chinese authorities
(NMPA) to obtain renewed approval for the currently available range
of PediGuard in China, as well as its extension to add the Curved
and XS PediGuard models
Regulatory News:
SpineGuard (FR0011464452 – ALSGD), an innovative company
that deploys its DSG® (Dynamic Surgical Guidance) unique sensing
technology using electrical conductivity local measurement in real
time to secure and streamline the placement of bone implants, today
announces a key progress in its Chinese regulatory plan with the
submission to the Chinese authorities (NMPA) of a file seeking
clearance renewal for the currently available range of PediGuard in
China, as well as its extension to add the Curved and XS PediGuard
models for which the necessary tests for regulatory purposes have
been launched in a specialized Chinese laboratory.
Stéphane Bette, Deputy CEO and Co-Founder of SpineGuard,
declares: “This key milestone is a great satisfaction for the teams
of SpineGuard and XinRong Medical Group, our commercial partner in
China. We execute on our roadmap with the following double
objective for the 2024 third quarter: the renewal of the
authorization for the current range, and the clearance of PediGuard
models which are not yet available in China, while they are in
other geographies such as Europe or the United States where they
have encountered true commercial success. Indeed, the curved tip
features an asymmetrical sensor that provides the surgeon with a
directional information, allowing to detect a cortical bony wall
and to redirect away from it in order to avoid the breach. To use a
simple analogy, the curved device can be used as a seeker head in
bone. This is particularly useful in scoliosis treatment where the
vertebral anatomy can be complex and deformed. The “XS” models
benefit a miniaturized sensor allowing for utilization in pediatric
surgery or in the cervical spine, where the anatomy is tiny.
XinRong will thereby soon possess the proper range of products
instrumental to PediGuard commercial success in China. We will not
stop there, since this regulatory filing will be followed by those
of Cannulated and Threaded PediGuard, specifically useful in
posterior minimally invasive and anterior approaches of the
Spine.”
Perspectives
As a reminder, in order to get back to double digit growth from
2024 onwards, SpineGuard is intensifying its commercial efforts, in
particular in the United States, and will be introducing three new
products derived from its DSG technology:
- PediGuard Threaded adapted to scoliosis correction via anterior
approach;
- Cannulated PediGuard for sacroiliac fusion in collaboration
with Omnia Medical; and
- DSG Drill Bit compatible with power drills and navigation.
In parallel, the Company is actively working on obtaining the
clearance of the whole PediGuard product range in China and seeking
partners for dental implantology and surgical robotics.
