InVivo Therapeutics Reports 2016 Year-end Financial Results and Business Update

March 10, 2017

CAMBRIDGE, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–InVivo Therapeutics Holdings Corp. (NVIV) today reported financial results for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Mark Perrin, InVivo’s CEO and Chairman, said, “2016 was a year marked by meaningful and significant progress. In 2016, we:

  • received approval for converting the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ pilot study to the pivotal INSPIRE study;
  • received approval to initiate the INSPIRE study in Canada (1st global step for InVivo);
  • added 13 new clinical sites, including our first ex-U.S. sites (both in Canada);
  • enrolled seven new patients, with three of those patients achieving the primary endpoint of conversion to partial paralysis by six months post-injury1;
  • continued our spinal cord injury (SCI) thought leadership by attending and presenting at international conferences, where we presented 13 scientific abstracts to renowned leaders within the neurosurgical, neuroscience, and SCI communities;
  • raised $32 million (gross), which is the company’s largest fund raising to date;
  • successfully developed a preclinical prototype of the TrailMaker™ for the chronic spinal cord injury market and filed two patent applications;
  • garnered unique media coverage about InVivo and the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold in 18 widely-read outlets resulting in nearly 30 million media impressions;
  • and continued to make great strides in strengthening our research and intellectual property portfolio.

We ended the year with approximately $33 million in cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities that we project will fund us into the second quarter of 2018, by which time we expect to be able to submit the HDE application for marketing approval of the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold. Over the coming quarters, we will continue to make progress toward this goal by enrolling more patients, increasing sites, expanding into the U.K., and completing enrollment of the INSPIRE study, which we are now projecting will occur in the third quarter of 2017.

In addition to the progress with INSPIRE, we also plan to initiate our first study in cervical SCI in Canada in the coming months. Cervical SCI represents a higher risk, higher reward indication in which the effects of neural preservation, regeneration or remyelination may be more dramatically demonstrated. I am excited at the prospect of building upon last year’s advances and continuing our journey to redefine the lives of patients with spinal cord injuries.”

Financial Results

For the year ended December 31, 2016, the Company reported a net loss of approximately $23,438,000, or $0.76 per share, compared to a net loss of approximately $33,314,000, or $1.26 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015. Included in results for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 were non-cash gain of $593,000 and a non-cash loss of $10,804,000, respectively, reflecting changes in the fair market value of the derivative warrant liability. Excluding the impact of the derivative warrant liability, adjusted net loss for the year ended December 31, 2016, was $24,031,000, or $0.78 per share, compared to an adjusted net loss of $22,510,000, or $0.85 per share, for the year ended December 31, 2015. The Company ended the year with $33,041,000 of cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities as of December 31, 2016.

Adjusted net loss and adjusted net loss per share are non-GAAP financial measures that exclude the impact of the items noted. A reconciliation of these measures to the comparable GAAP measures is included with the tables contained in this release. The Company believes a presentation of these non-GAAP measures provides useful information to investors, enabling them to better understand the Company’s operations, on a period-to-period comparable basis, with financial amounts both including and excluding these identified items.

About the Neuro-Spinal Scaffold™ Implant

Lateral Lumbar Interbody Fusion Market: Emergence of Advanced Technologies and Future Outlook 2024

3-10-2017 – Health & Medicine, Press release from: TMR

Lateral lumbar interbody fusion (LLIF) is a minimally invasive technique and is in demand for surgical spinal fusion procedure. LLIF is an effective and safe surgical procedure that makes post-operative recovery quicker and less painful. The incision is made from the side through psoas muscle that allows surgeons to access more surface area with less damage to the tissue and reduced blood loss.
Lateral lumbar interbody fusion is a surgical procedure used to treat specific types of disorders of lumbar spine, such as degenerative disc disease, low grade spondylolisthesis, degenerative scoliosis (asymmetric disc degeneration) and deformity, and some recurrent lumbar herniated disc and lumbar stenosis. Developments in magnification and illumination associated with surgical instrumentation have led to increased applicability of minimally invasive technique for spinal fusion. High device cost and various procedure levels are likely to boost the growth of the market.
The minimally invasive lateral lumbar interbody fusion has certain advantages such as enhanced spine alignment and easier spine access in several cases such as degenerative diseases and correction in sagittal and coronal deformities. Large number of surgeons prefer this procedure, as it results in less blood loss and lower damage to the tissues around the surgical area. Reduced time for operation and length of hospital stay, greater fusion, and lesser infection rates are the other advantages of this procedure.
Increased incidence of degenerative diseases and rising prevalence of lower back pain in the population above 45 years drive the global lateral lumbar interbody fusion market. Higher visualization resulting in easy and precise operation with less tissue sparing practice are other factors that propel the global lateral lumbar interbody fusion market. However, high cost of operation and risks associated with lateral lumbar interbody fusion such as psoas muscles or neural network injury and bone graft fusion complication restrain the market.

No Bones About It, Bundled Payments Reduce Costs: Study Shows 20% Cost Reduction

By Remedy Partners – February 1, 2017

A significant study published in the JAMA Internal Medicine at the beginning of the year demonstrates how a health system effectively reduced episodic expenditures through bundled payments by 20 percent. Notwithstanding the rising national costs of joint replacements, Baptist Health System (BHS) saved $20 million over seven years with bundled payments.

The study, from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania, co-authored by Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, combines hospital and Medicare data to evaluate the costs and care quality for nearly 4,000 hip and knee replacement episodes from July 2008 to June 2015. The five-hospital Baptist Health System in San Antonio, Texas saved more than $5,000 per episode, or $20 million in total savings. BHS also improved outcomes during the study by reducing readmissions, emergency department visits, and inpatient prolonged lengths of stay.

Remedy Partners has achieved similar results in a shorter period of time with engaged, aligned, and motivated provider partners across the country. Our experience has shown that hospitals and physician group practices can replicate this success by developing local, focused networks of cooperating providers and committing to optimized workflows.

Secretary Price: A Strong Supporter of Voluntary Bundled Payments

March 1, 2017  – By Nick Bluhm, Director of Strategy & Government Policy at Remedy Partners

When Secretary Price said “people have coverage, but they don’t have care,” he underscored his commitment to one of the core values of bundled payments: patient-centered care.  Dr. Price believes that “patients and doctors should be in control of healthcare”; which is why he does not support mandatory pilot programs.” He understands that providers need flexibility, not dictations, to accommodate the needs of their patients.

Dr. Price knows that physicians will need Medicare to accommodate their diverse, local needs in designing payment models. Notably, Secretary Price sees value in voluntary pilot programs, especially the Bundled Payments for Care Improvement initiative (BPCI). During his confirmation hearing, Secretary Price expressed support for voluntary bundled payment models and highlighted the role of the CMS Innovation Center in sponsoring pilot programs, saying that “for certain patients, bundled payments make a lot of sense.”

Expansion and extension of the framework of the BPCI initiative could create a more competitive and long-term approach to bundled payments. Voluntary models should be agnostic to the sponsoring provider; physician groups, post-acute providers and third-party risk-bearing entities have proven highly successful in government and private sector bundled payment programs. For instance, Accountable Care Organizations can use voluntary bundled payments to improve relationships with hospital-based physicians and integrate acute care management into their population health strategy.

6 Questions with Curt Wiedenhoefer, an old friend who is bringing wearable patient monitoring to total joints

I first got to know Curt Wiedenhoefer in 1988 when we were both working with Richards Medical, now Smith & Nephew.  He was a young salesman working in Southern California selling trauma and hip and knee products. Since that time, Curt was recruited to Depuy in Northern California to manage the sales efforts for one of the largest distributorships at the time in the U.S.  While he was working closely with surgeons, he realized there was a need for medical electronics in orthopedics. He founded a company, called Eisenlohr Technologies, Inc. in 1992.  They developed a hand held measuring device for radiographs and an X-Ray marker.  He bootstrapped the product development by collaborating with the PhD electrical engineering program at Stanford University.  Self-funding with a small group of investors, he was able to get the product to market and sold it worldwide. Over the last 12 years he served as the Executive Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Consensus Orthopedics. The past 2 years he has also been the General Manager of the TracPatch division, which focuses on wearable technology in orthopedics.  Recently, he was promoted to President of the Consensus Orthopedics.

I sat down with Curt and asked him a few questions about the new technology Consensus is developing.

1. So Curt, tell me about Consensus Orthopedics and its current trajectory.

Thank you Tiger. We are excited to say this year Consensus will celebrate 25 years in orthopedics!  Our company headquarters is in El Dorado Hills, CA, about 30 miles east of Sacramento in Northern California.  Our primary focus has always been on the hip and knee market and we have been and will continue to be, a high quality and reliable US joint manufacturer. We continued to expand our joint line by launching two new products this year, a Uni Knee and Shoulder. We are a start to finish manufacturing facility from raw materials through sterilization and packaging. We distribute to more than 15 countries worldwide.

Our future is looking bright. In 2015, we founded a medtech division within Consensus named TracPatch. The goal of this division is to use our 25 years of orthopedic experience to create innovative wearable technology for joint replacement rehabilitation and to assist our surgeons through the entire episode of care.

2. Why is Consensus, a traditionally orthopedic implant company, branching out into post-op patient monitoring?

The beginning of TracPatch is an interesting story. I was at a friend’s birthday party and I was talking with an orthopedic surgeon I knew. We were engrossed in the topic of real time post-op patient data. He told me he could “put in the best implant technology, align the joint perfectly, and balance the soft tissues, but if his patient sits on their couch with a pillow under their knee during those critical first six weeks post-operatively, the patient will have a bad result.” The TracPatch spark was lit right then.

From there, we combined our employees’ knowledge of orthopedics and electronics and created the TracPatch Division.

At the same time, CJR was being finalized. So this casual party conversation combined with the market shifting towards a value based model led to our discovering a need for post-op patient monitoring. This was critical to a healthcare providers and/or hospitals success. We leveraged our proximity to Silicon Valley and felt that we could develop products that potentially could improve outcomes, reduce cost and enhance patient satisfaction after total joint surgery. As a result, we created our TracPatch Division, and developed TracPatch, a wearable device for total joint rehabilitation patients.

3. Give me some more details about TracPatch.

TracPatch is a wearable device that can be utilized with any total knee system.  It is placed just below the tibia joint line, medial or lateral to the midline, using a disposable adhesive pad. TracPatch is designed to remotely monitor range of motion, ambulation, exercise compliance, and temperature trends during post-surgical rehabilitation. This machine learning technology strategically optimizes the patient’s entire episode of care with a proactive approach. The TracPatch system includes an app and web dashboard. The app features an intuitive interface for easy operation on any smart phone with Bluetooth technology. The device transmits key data points directly to a secure cloud-based platform, where healthcare providers can track individual patient progress anytime on the app or web dashboard.

4. How can this technology scale for all orthopedic stakeholders?

TracPatch can be used by every patient. I am personally convinced that the benefits of the TracPatch wearable device are so significant that it will become the technology of choice for every surgeon/healthcare provider.

For example, a patient with TracPatch is motivated to engage in their rehabilitation program through daily exercise reminders and an interactive episode of care rehab roadmap. The healthcare provider can know every day if the patient is moving, increasing their range of motion, and completing their rehab exercises. This will in turn have the potential to reduce MUA’s (manipulation under anesthesia), readmissions, and physical therapy sessions; meaning increased value of care with decreased cost of care. These improved outcomes will result in higher patient satisfaction.

5. What kind of impact do you foresee the TracPatch technology having on Consensus as a company?

As I mentioned earlier, Consensus is celebrating our 25th year anniversary. Our products are known for their quality, reliability, and surgeon reproducibility in the OR. This innovative technology allows us to provide a groundbreaking new approach to help healthcare providers reduce costs and increase positive outcomes. TracPatch can add tremendous value to the entire episode of care. This technology delivers never-before-seen data into the post-surgical rehabilitation for healthcare providers. Being able to monitor your patients’ range of motion progress and exercise compliance daily is a game changer. TracPatch is making proactive care easy, so every patient has an excellent outcome. In 2018, we will be releasing a version for the hip as well.

The orthopedic industry has never seen anything like this before and we want to be on the forefront in this budding medtech orthopedic space. It not only allows Consensus Orthopedics to expand our current revenue and customer base, TracPatch also will attract new surgeons and hospitals that don’t currently use our total joints. This technology provides a synergistic market strategy we can use to create a streamlined episode of care.

6. Where do you see this technology going next?

Without giving up too much detail on our IP, Orthopedic wearable technology is the future. TracPatch is just the beginning. I envision wearable technology will completely change the orthopedic industry. Just imagine a future where innovative implant technology, wearable technology, and IoT intersect to create a completely connected care environment. Where provider and patient are synced throughout the entire pre, intra, and post-operative episode of care.

Histogenics Announces Publication of Biomechanical and Structural Data From Human Engineered Cartilage Testing

WALTHAM, Mass., March 09, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Histogenics Corporation (Histogenics) (Nasdaq:HSGX), a regenerative medicine company focused on developing and commercializing products in the musculoskeletal space, today announced the online publication in the Journal of Orthopaedic Research of a peer-reviewed publication entitled Mechanical Properties and Structure-Function Relationships of Human Chondrocyte-Seeded Cartilage Constructs After In Vitro Culture.  The publication analyzes mechanical properties of tissue engineered cartilage based on work done as part of a sponsored research agreement between Histogenics and Dr. Lawrence Bonassar at Cornell University (Cornell).  The initial data were presented at the Orthopaedic Research Society annual meeting in March 2016 and are based on a long-standing cooperative research agreement between Histogenics and Cornell.  The lead author is Jill E. Middendorf (Cornell) with support from:  Darvon J. Griffin, PhD, Itai Cohen, PhD and Lawrence J. Bonassar, PhD from Cornell and Sonya Shortkroff, Caroline Dugopolski, Stephen Kennedy and Joseph Siemiatkoski from Histogenics.

The objective of the study was to understand the complex mechanical behavior, function and changes that occur in human chondrocyte seeded collagen constructs during in vitro culture using multiple mechanical tests, which measure the compressive, frictional and shear properties of the constructs.  This study was the first to examine the measurement of all three of these properties in human chondrocyte seeded constructs, and is intended to respond to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) guidance related to the generation of biomechanical or structural data for cartilage implants.

“We are excited to continue building our scientific understanding of the hyaline cartilage like properties of our tissue engineered product, NeoCart, and intend to use the data from these tests to support the Biologics License Application for NeoCart,” said Stephen Kennedy, Chief Technology Officer of Histogenics. “The data generated in this study provide additional evidence of the importance of the combination of cells, engineering and scaffold to produce mechanically competent cartilage tissue implants with additional unique friction and compression properties that allow for proper function in vivo.  NeoCart’s unique ability to generate these characteristics prior to implantation is important, and we believe correlates nicely with the recently published clinical pain and functional data from the combined Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials for NeoCart.  Taken together, these results may indicate that tissue engineered implants, such as NeoCart, may enable a more rapid recovery and return to function for patients suffering from cartilage defects,” continued Mr. Kennedy.

While all mechanical properties of human, tissue engineered, cartilage constructs nominally improved with time, frictional properties approached native values by three weeks and compressive properties approached native values by seven weeks.  The results of the study suggest that in vitro cartilage constructs, or tissue implants, produced using a process that is designed to mimic that of NeoCart® exhibited mechanical properties prior to implantation approaching such properties of native cartilage.  Specifically, the results of the study indicate that a combination of cells, scaffold and engineering play an important role in the development of tissue engineered-cartilage implants, such as NeoCart, and the maturation of such implants, leads to improved biological and mechanical properties.  Together, these attributes may enable the early response and repair of focal cartilage lesions and the results of this study are consistent with data seen in patients in the Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials of NeoCart.

“Cartilage is a unique and difficult tissue to repair or regenerate.  This challenge is evident from the many approaches to cartilage repair that include cells and scaffolds,” stated Dr. Lawrence Bonassar, Professor at Cornell University in the Meinig School of Biomedical Engineering and the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.  “The data from this study confirm prior observations by scientists and surgeons that different mechanical properties of tissues improve at different rates.  For example, frictional properties appear to improve quickly, while shear properties improve more slowly.  These data are valuable not only for comparison to the performance of native tissue, but also in directing attention towards the properties that still need improvement,” continued Dr. Bonassar.

The full peer-reviewed publication will be available in the Investor Relations section of the Histogenics website once the final article is released for publication.

About NeoCart

NeoCart is a cartilage-like, tissue engineered implant created from a patient’s own cartilage cells.  The patient’s cells are multiplied in Histogenics’ laboratory and then infused into a proprietary scaffold to allow them to organize and function like cartilage cells.  Before NeoCart is shipped to the surgeon for implantation, the cell and scaffold construct undergoes a bioengineering process that is designed to mimic a joint so that the implant, upon placement in the knee with a proprietary bioadhesive, is primed to begin functioning like healthy cartilage.  NeoCart is currently in a Phase 3 clinical trial that is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of NeoCart as a first-line therapy for full thickness knee cartilage defects in skeletally mature adults ages 18 to 59 and to show superiority of NeoCart against the current standard of care, microfracture.  Histogenics is conducting the trial under a Special Protocol Assessment with the FDA and expects to complete enrollment in this trial by the end of the second quarter of 2017.

About Histogenics Corporation

Histogenics is a leading regenerative medicine company developing and commercializing products in the musculoskeletal segment of the marketplace.  Histogenics’ regenerative medicine platform combines expertise in cell processing, scaffolding, tissue engineering, bioadhesives and growth factors to provide solutions to treat musculoskeletal-related conditions.  Histogenics’ first investigational product candidate, NeoCart, is currently in Phase 3 clinical development.  NeoCart is an autologous cell therapy designed to treat cartilage defects in the knee using the patient’s own cells.  Knee cartilage defects represent a significant opportunity in the United States, with an estimated 500,000 or more applicable procedures each year.  NeoCart is designed to exhibit characteristics of articular, hyaline cartilage prior to and upon implantation into the knee and therefore does not rely on the body to make new cartilage, characteristics not exhibited in other current treatment options.  For more information, please visit www.histogenics.com.

Use of Pro Forma Financial Information
On July 31,2015, Bacterin International Holdings, Inc. acquired all of the issued and outstanding stock of X-Spine Systems, Inc. and the combined company was renamed Xtant Medical Holdings, Inc. Except for the financial results for the three months ended December 31, 2015, the results presented for the full 2015 year are on a pro forma basis as if the two companies were combined for the periods shown. Certain pro forma adjustments have been made to reflect the impact of the purchase transaction, primarily consisting of amortization of intangible assets with determinable lives and interest expense on long-term debt. In addition, certain historical expenses, such as warrant expense and interest expense associated with debt that was immediately repaid, were eliminated from these pro-forma results. The pro forma information does not necessarily reflect the actual results of operations had the acquisition been consummated at the beginning of the fiscal reporting period indicated nor is it indicative of future operating results. The pro forma information does not include any adjustment for potential revenue enhancements, cost synergies or other operating efficiencies that could result from the acquisition.

Additional information regarding the business combination and its impact on the Company’s financial position will be set forth in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, which will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about March 30, 2017 and will include the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015

OrthoSensor®(Booth #5823) At The 2017 AAOS Annual Meeting In San Diego

DANIA BEACH, Fla., March 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ — OrthoSensor, Inc., a leader in sensor-assisted technology for total knee arthroplasty (TKA), will be on the main aisle at booth #5823 during the 2017 American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meeting at the San Diego Convention Center from March 15-17.  OrthoSensor will be releasing its three-year multicenter study results, as well as other new studies showing the clinical and economic advantages that may be gained with the use of VERASENSE, the leading intraoperative product for OrthoSensor.  OrthoSensor will also host distinguished surgeon speakers at the booth.

VERASENSE for TKA transmits quantitative data from a patient’s knee, enabling a surgeon to customize implant position and achieve better soft tissue balance. The newly released studies show:

  • Statistically significant improvement in patient-reported outcomes and satisfaction for TKA patients whose knees were balanced using VERASENSE sensors
  • Improved post-op physical therapy performance and short-term clinical outcomes
  • Reduced complications and costs over 90-day TKA episode of care (MUA rate)
  • Cost mitigation when used for revision TKA (implant preservation, improved rehabilitation and other ancillary benefits)

“We are excited to present a new study showing 88% of planned early stage total revisions changed to partial revisions when VERASENSE was used in revision TKA procedures.  This reduction represents very meaningful clinical and financial benefits to both patients and providers.  This is just one of many studies showing the significant clinical and economic advantages of VERASENSE that have been recently released,” said Ivan Delevic, President and Chief Executive Officer of OrthoSensor, Inc.

The distinguished presenters at the OrthoSensor Booth #5823 are as follows:

Wednesday, March 15, 2017
10:30 amGregory J. Golladay, MD – Virginia Commonwealth University

Stryker’s Spine division to exhibit key technologies at AAOS 2017

March 09, 2017

ALLENDALE, N.J.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Stryker’s Spine division today announced that it will demonstrate its Aero-C Cervical Stability System (Aero-C) and Xia 4.5 Cortical Trajectory implants and instruments (Xia CT) at the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) Annual Meeting, March 15–18, 2017, in San Diego (booth No. 3133).

Aero-C, the only straight forward anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF) device that offers uniform compression across the interbody space, will be displayed at AAOS 2017, highlighting its full commercial launch. Using Aerofoil™ Compression Technology, Aero-C is designed to pull the vertebral bodies toward the implant as it is inserted, creating compressive forces at the implant-to-endplate interface.1 Aerofoil Compression Technology is also available for lateral and anterior lumbar interbody fusion procedures (LLIF and ALIF). Since the initial introduction to the market, over 600 cases have been completed.

Also to be demonstrated at AAOS is Xia CT, which includes implants and instruments used in less invasive LITe LIF posterior lumbar interbody fusion procedures for patients with degenerative disc disease, spondylolisthesis, and trauma. The cortical trajectory procedure facilitates a smaller midline incision to help achieve decompression, fixation, and fusion.2 It also is intended to be more muscle sparing than standard open procedures that require lateral dissection, and its reduced incision may allow for more efficient exposure and closure time.2 The launch of the Xia CT system occurred in 2016, with 575 cases completed to date.

“Since their introduction last year, Aero-C and Xia CT have been well received by our surgeon customers and have achieved rapid adoption in the marketplace,” said Bradley Paddock, President of Stryker’s Spine division. “These unique products reflect our strong commitment to advancing spine health and helping to enhance outcomes for patients by providing physicians with innovative and differentiated technology.”

Aero-C and Xia CT offer advancements that highlight the Spine division’s leadership in pioneering innovative technologies for traditional and minimally invasive surgical techniques. The company offers one of the most comprehensive and diverse product portfolios for the treatment of degenerative and complex spinal disorders. Its suite of leading-edge products includes implants, instruments, and biologics for the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine.

Indications for Use

The AERO-C Cervical Cage is indicated for use in cervical interbody fusion procedures in skeletally mature patients with degenerative disc disease (DDD) at one level from the C2-C3 disc to the C7-T1 disc. The AERO-C Cervical Cage System is to be used with autogenous bone graft and/or allogenic bone graft comprised of cancellous and/or corticocancellous bone graft, and is to be implanted via an open, anterior approach.

The Xia CT implants and instruments are intended for anterior/anterolateral and posterior, non-cervical pedicle and non-pedicle fixation for the following indications: Degenerative Disc Disease (as defined by back pain of discogenic origin with degeneration of the disc confirmed by patient history and radiographic studies); spondylolisthesis; trauma (i.e. fracture or dislocation); spinal stenosis; curvatures (i.e., scoliosis, kyphosis, and/or lordosis); tumor; pseudarthrosis; failed previous fusion.
