Saluda Medical Announces Late Breaking Data at NANS 2024 Annual Meeting

Closed-Loop with Precise Neural Dosing Associated with Superior Outcomes

MINNEAPOLIS, Jan. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Saluda Medical Pty Ltd a global medical device company revolutionizing the field of neuromodulation with an emerging portfolio of therapies driven by advanced closed-loop technologies, today announced the company’s data will be presented at the North American Neuromodulation Society (NANS) 2024 Annual Meeting, taking place January 18-21.

The 3-Year EVOKE Study demonstrated superior pain relief in the closed-loop (SmartLoop™) arm versus the open-loop arm. In the late-breaking presentation, EVOKE Study data will be shown that SmartLoop therapy is associated with significantly better adherence to prescribed electrical dose versus the open-loop arm. This evidence may usher in a new era of objective therapy measures that enable improved long-term clinical outcomes for spinal cord stimulation (SCS).

Precise neural dosing with SmartLoop is possible through real-time measurements of evoked compound action potentials (ECAPs), which are direct measures of the nerve fibers’ response to stimulation.

In addition to the late-breaking presentation, the 13 posters and presentations to be presented at NANS include additional data on long-term SCS clinical results and neural monitoring to optimize SCS long-term therapy efficacy as well as identify responders from non-responders during the SCS trial evaluation phase.

Podium presentations include:

• Late Breaking Session: 3-Year Durable Outcomes and Dose-Response with ECAP Closed-Loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS) for Treatment of Chronic Pain, Dr. Nagy Mekhail (EVOKE RCT)
• Attaining Maximal Analgesic Effect (MAE) With Objective Neurophysiological Measurements, Dr. Robert Levy (EVOKE RCT)
• Increasing Treatment Response After 2 Years of Open-Loop SCS Therapy: Crossover Patient Insights Dr. Jason Pope, (EVOKE RCT)
• Big ECAP Data: A Novel Objective Neural Panel™ for SCS Therapy Optimization, Dr. Ajay Antony (EVOKE RCT, Avalon Study, and DR Study)

“Saluda Medical has been on a journey to transform neuromodulation and solve large unmet clinical and health economic needs. The evidence presented at NANS demonstrates SmartLoop’s capability to provide long-term superior outcomes for patients as well as advance SCS therapy efficiencies for clinical practices,” said Jim Schuermann, President and CEO of Saluda Medical.

About Saluda Medical
Saluda Medical is a global company transforming patients’ lives with disruptive neural sensing technologies designed to revolutionize the field of neuromodulation. The company’s first product, the Evoke^® System, is the only SmartLoop™ therapy with physiologic ECAP-controlled closed-loop spinal cord stimulation (SCS) and is indicated as an aid in the management of chronic intractable pain of the trunk and/or limbs, including unilateral or bilateral pain associated with failed back surgery syndrome, intractable low back pain, and leg pain. The Evoke^® System automatically reads, records, and responds to the nerves’ response to stimulation 4+million times a day to provide continually optimized therapy and is proven to be superior to open-loop SCS for the treatment of overall trunk and/or limb pain. 12-month results from the EVOKE study, the first double-blind randomized controlled trial (RCT) used in support of Premarket Approval (PMA) in spinal cord stimulation history, were published in The Lancet Neurology, 24-month results have been published in JAMA Neurology, and unprecedented 36-month data, demonstrating enduring and consistent pain relief results were published in Regional Anesthesia and Pain Medicine.
