Elixir Medical To Announce Data from Three Platforms Designed to Transform Cardiovascular Disease Treatment at EuroPCR 2024, Including Two Late-Breakers

MILPITAS, Calif. – April 30, 2024 – Elixir Medical, a developer of transformative technologies to treat cardiovascular and peripheral disease, announced it will present long-term two-year clinical results from its BIOADAPTOR Randomized Controlled (1:1) Trial (RCT), an international, single-blind study comparing the novel DynamX^® Coronary Bioadaptor System designed to restore coronary artery hemodynamic modulation and vessel function, compared with a standard of care drug-eluting stent (DES) therapy, as a late-breaker session at EuroPCR 2024 in Paris on May 14.

“There remains a large unmet need for transformative technology in cardiovascular intervention to address limitations of coronary artery disease (CAD) treatments such as maintaining the established artery flow lumen, restoring vessel hemodynamic modulation, and stabilizing or regressing plaque to deliver durable and incremental clinical benefit. In the absence of restoring artery function, today we see 20% MACE within 5 years¹ and 50% by 10 years² after PCI attributable to non-plateauing annual adverse events with DES,”³ said Motasim Sirhan, CEO of Elixir Medical. “We are very pleased with our 12-month data from the BIODAPTOR RCT study, which demonstrated restoration of vessel motion and function with better effectiveness than standard of care, DES, and we are thrilled to unveil the two-year clinical outcomes to solidify the strong body of clinical evidence supporting the DynamX bioadaptor in delivering sustained superior clinical outcomes for patients.”

Elixir Medical will also unveil primary clinical, angiographic, and OCT imaging outcomes from the PINNACLE I clinical study evaluating its novel LithiX™ calcium fragmentation technology based on Hertz Contact Intravascular Lithotripsy. Featured as an Innovation Session presentation, the clinical results are intended to demonstrate safety and efficacy of Elixir’s lithotripsy technology designed to simplify treatment of a broad range of complex calcified lesions while advancing safety and efficacy of calcium modification.

Additionally, Elixir Medical will share late-breaking 12-month outcomes of its TRx site-specific antithrombotic therapeutic from the DESyne BDS Plus RCT, a prospective, multicenter, single-blind study evaluating the safety, effectiveness, and performance of the world’s first triple-drug site-specific antithrombotic therapy (TRx) on a DES compared to DESyne X2 Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent System in the treatment of de novo native coronary artery lesions.

About BIOADAPTOR RCT Trial

The BIOADAPTOR RCT is an international, single-blind, randomized controlled (1:1) trial comparing a sirolimus-eluting bioadaptor with a contemporary zotarolimus-eluting stent in 445 patients. Both arms had large randomized multi-modality imaging subgroups of 100 patients each powered to document standard effectiveness benchmarks of establishing and maintaining artery flow lumen measured by percent diameter stenosis (%DS) and late lumen loss (LLL), and the new effectiveness benchmarks of restoring artery hemodynamic modulation, including pulsatility, vessel compliance, and adaptive flow volume. Clinical follow-up will continue through five years.

BIOADAPTOR RCT trial is the third trial of Elixir Medical’s robust DynamX bioadaptor clinical evidence program consisting of nine company-sponsored and investigator-initiated studies involving over 9,000 patients, including INFINITY SWEDEHEART RCT (n=2400) and a global BIO-RESTORE registry with a target enrollment of up to 5,000 patients.

About PINNACLE I Trial

The PINNACLE I is a prospective, multicenter, single-arm clinical study evaluating safety, effectiveness, and performance of the LithiX Hertz Contact Lithotripsy Catheter for the treatment of calcified lesions. The trial includes up to 60 patients across 5 sites in Belgium and Netherlands. Angiographic imaging outcomes of all 60 patients and a subset of 30 patients by OCT are scheduled to undergo independent core lab analysis. Primary safety and effectiveness outcomes will be reported at 30 days and 6 months.

About the DESyne BDS Trial

The DESyne BDS Plus Randomized Clinical Trial (RCT) is a prospective, multicenter, single-blind study evaluating the safety, effectiveness, and performance of the TRx site-specific antithrombotic therapeutic on DESyne BDS Plus Triple Drug-Eluting Coronary Implant compared to DESyne X2 Drug-Eluting Coronary Stent System in the treatment of de novo native coronary artery lesions. The trial includes 202 patients across 14 sites in Europe, New Zealand and Brazil. An imaging subset of 58 patients had angiographic and optical coherence tomography (OCT) assessment completed in the first six months. Data collection will continue through three years.
