How NeuroOne and Zimmer Biomet will partner on robotic brain surgery

NeuroOne is preparing its depth electrode technology for commercialization through Zimmer Biomet (NYSE: ZBH) while waiting for FDA feedback on its latest submission.

NeuroOne’s Evo stereoelectroencephalography (sEEG) device won FDA 510(k) clearance in September 2021 for recording, monitoring, and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface level of the brain.

That clearance was for temporary use (less than 24 hours), and NeuroOne applied in November to extend the duration of use to less than 30 days. The FDA denied that application in May, but said the company could try again with new subacute toxicity biocompatibility evidence.

NeuroOne submits special FDA 510(k) application for Evo sEEG electrode

NeuroOne (Nasdaq:NMTC) announced today that it submitted a special FDA 510(k) application for its sEEG electrode.

Eden Prairie, Minnesota-based NeuroOne’s special submission aims to extend the duration of use for its Evo sEEG electrode from less than 24 hours to less than 30-day use.

The company said in a news release that, according to FDA guidance, a special 510(k) submission is usually reviewed within 30 day of receipt as opposed to the 90 day period for a traditional 510(k) submission.

In May, the FDA stated that it would uphold its decision that the Evo device is “not substantially equivalent for extended use” based on its analysis of the methodology used for exhaustive extraction testing. NeuroOne said the FDA told the company it could submit a new 510(k) with new evidence.

Evo received FDA 510(k) clearance for the temporary (less than 24 hours) recording, monitoring and stimulation of electrical signals at the subsurface l…
